Spitfire Diorama - reed bed crash scene
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 фев 2022
- This diorama gave me the opportunity to work with WWS resin, an Airfix Spitfire and, of course, a range of static grass and scatters from WWS, Woodland Scenics and Gaugemaster to create the scene. The reeds were made from paint brush bristles.
This diorama was part of a WWS Facebook competition in February 2022.

Thanks for this. You've given me the opportunity to go and do my own crash scene diorama.
Excellent! Good luck with your diorama and have fun 👍🏻
@DartsideScenics thanks, I will.
Oh wow I just realised how old this video is, still liked and subscribed, excellent video none the less
👍🏻 thanks
This is one of the best dioramas i have ever seen...
Thank you for making this video
Thank you so much 😊
Keep up the great work !!!
Thanks Michael! 😁
Amazing details on the vegetation and water, superb dio!👍👍👍😍😍
Cheers Phil
Grand job as always
Thank you 😊
stunning work
Thanks Malcolm
Stunning. Presumably it won. If not it’s a travesty . . . . !!!! Thank you for sharing - and for all the other videos you post which are so helpful.
Thanks Alex! No I didn't win but the competition winner fully deserved top spot with a fantastic diorama.
A capital job there, mate!
Thanks David!
Brilliant scenery work as usual Andy! Those reeds look fantastic.
Very thoughtful of Pilot Officer Prune to close that canopy on his way out 🤣.
Looks great Mate, well done.
Thanks Ash! 😂
Greetings from Germany. The Spitfire is my all time favourite, a real timeless Beauty. It s sad to See her in such a sorry state. Besides you Work IS nothing short of brilliant. I'll make Dioramas myself, but in 1/700 scale. Keep Up your exeptional Work. It s a Job well done. Sorry If my english ist Not the best...
😉👍Very cool and very nicely well done and executed in every detail way shape and form and it came out very spectacular looking indeed!.
Thanks very much Steve
Great video and a wonderful job! I'm learning as much as I can to build a diorama or two. Never done it before. Thank you for explaining while you work.
Thank you. It’s a great hobby - i hope you enjoy it 😁
Only just seen this Andy. Beautiful work as always. Why you are one of our top choice scenic modellers. Phil & Josie
Thanks Phil and Josie!
might be nitpicky but there is no damage too the plane to cause an accident... if its war time you'd expect some bullet holes... it looks awesome just missing that final touch
I’m going to say it was pilot error and that’s why there are no bullet holes 😂. In truth, it was a competition build so time was limited so it might be revisited at some point.
@@DartsideScenics im all about story! like "what happened?" i imagine after a scout mission along the south east coast this pilot was ambushed by a 109 also doing recon of the area prior to a german air raid!
like mentioned looks fantastic
@@DartsideScenics Maybe a novice pilot who accidentally switched to an empty tank or in some other way caused the engine to quit. Or maintenance error, like a cleaning cloth left in an air intake, etc..
How on earth... That is some skill you have there.
Thank you 😊
Great diorama Andy, I like that lots and noted some of you’re techniques for future use.. Regards Chris
Thank you Chris
I think the fences should have been more broken by looking at the wingspan of the plane but overall, you did a really great job. Congrats
Thanks Iceman. I had to include fencing in the brief but the entire wingspan would've removed most of it. I decided to just knock down where the landing gear crashed through and hoped the wings would've just skimmed over the top of the fence!
@@DartsideScenics Plausible, but if that were the case, the landing gear wouldn't have left such large gouges. When I looked at it, I figured the pilot made a belly landing, and slid through the fence.
thanks Martin
It's brilliant, but I suppose as perfection is your game then one might point out that the landing would have been made with the undercarriage up. If down it would have been torn off. Either way the scouring would have been light, caused by the twin air intakes. Canopy open. Propeller, blades either split or bent back, depending on mark, Damage to leading edge of wings at a minimum, and the plane would not have landed straight ahead, but turned to one side to align with the ditch, probably more nose down from the weight of the engine and contour of the land. More fence damage as you have noted. But still spectacular.
you make it look so easy, outstanding art work
Thank you
great eyes for details , interesting way for the dry grass ! sperb dio mate ! all the best jy
Thank you 😊
i'm currently considering whether i should start with building models and dioramas myself, and i'm watching countless videos about it. this is one of my favorite videos 😅.
the result is really outstanding, and the video too. keep up the good work 🤝!
Thank you! You should definitely do it 👍🏻
Amazing stuff mate. Your videos are a great inspiration.
Thanks John!
Lovely job Andy. Thanks for sharing!!! 👍✌
Thank you 👍🏻
Great video Andy, really enjoyed watching the build process after seeing your finished entry into the competition! The end result is superb 👏👏👏 Cheers Gary
Cheers Gary. It was a fun competition wasn't it - looking forward to the next one!
Awesome video and tutorial of your Spitfire diorama! Your talent and addition to detail is superb! Throughout the video all I can do is shake my head saying UNBELIEVABLE! What a talented guy you are and enjoy watching your videos! I like all your dioramas and hope to see more with railroads! Thanks again for sharing your videos with us along with your time and effort!
Thanks Shawn, that’s very kind 😊
Great diorama Andy, the bull rushes are amazing, the whole scene is just so real, thank you for posting.
Thanks Simon 😊
the final piece looks like a photograph from the war. amazing skills, thanks for making the video and well done with the spitfire.
Thanks Dan 👍🏻
You make it look easy! Amazing piece. That is art.
Thank you! 😁
Fantastic diorama!
Thank you!
Wow! Stunning work! Love it!
Thanks Alan!
Brilliant Andy I just love watching how you bring your dioramas to life. I actually braved the storm between the rain showers to take my photos outside lol. Great scene atb Andy
Thanks Andy. You were brave to go out in that!! Worth it though - your results were stunning.
Excellent build and skillful work. A true artisan!
Thank you!
Very nice 👍🏻
Thank you 👍🏻
I have liked this diorama very different excellent work
Thank you 😊
Fantastic job. Looks so realistic and great work on the reed bed.
Thank you
Another masterpiece! Great job! 👍
Thanks Peter! 😊
Magical 👍🏻😊
Thanks David 😊
Fantastic job! The scenic elements are probably the best I have seen. Just a couple of points about the aircraft. The propellers usually curl backwards as they are spinning when they hit the ground. And I would have thought the canopy would be open if the pilot had got out?
Thanks Robert. Yes, there are lots of incorrect elements with the aircraft but time was a bit short and my plane crash knowledge isn’t the best! I hope to do another in future and spend a bit more time on those details.
This is a cool channel. I just subbed.
You really capture my beloved England in your dioramas. You really catch the feel of our countryside
Thank you
Hi Andy, what a lovely diorama, such detail, good luck in the competition cheers, John
Thanks John 👍🏻
Beautiful model, well done 🙂
Thank you David.
Truly brilliant work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂👍🏻
Thank you 😊
good vid look good keep up the good work
Thank you 👍🏻
Absolutly stunnin man. Great tutorial will use these tips soon.
Thank you! 😁
CLASS! Need I say more!
Cheers Craig!
Wow at 13:01 it looks so real!
Thank you 😊
No problem 😌
Well done 👍
Looks like the real thing.
Thank you
just found your channel , some awsome work . and sub
Thanks Paul. Just subscribed to yours - some fabulous models on show
thank you ,much apprecated
Great detail on the reeds. The Spitfire was a tail dragger and should have a dugin spot on the road. Also the weeds and tufts between the fence and stream should be bent forward where the wing pushed them. I'm guessing gear up landing would have a more dug out area on the road, or toss out a landing gear that broke off. Very well done enjoy your work.
Thanks Tim. I think quite a few people had some issues with this one but I should be able to revisit it when there’s more time.
@@DartsideScenics I wouldn't say issues I think most people just want it to be the best and notice suggestions for you.
@@timf2279 yes, I think it’s useful to get constructive feedback. I have been limited for time on some of them so haven’t been too happy with the results. However, I usually find I can improve some processes on the second attempt.
@@DartsideScenics yes I noticed you have been rushed. Have you been busy or just late notice?
@@DartsideScenics I also forgot on the spitfire was liquid cooled so it had a radiator inlet under the fuselage.
Excellent model...interesting because there is a story there too... about the pilot and how he was shot down or maybe the crash was due to instrument failure and what happened to him...is he safe in Kent or maybe this is set in Occupied France ( not at all safe ....like the end scene in the recent film Dunkirk ). The mystery adds to the drama of the actual model.
Thanks Jeremy
Nice. I will say, you should put a story into the model. Why did it crash? Fire? MG fire? Cannons? Add a little damage here and there. A streak of black to simulate oil or smoke stains can go a long way. Hell, go one further and have chunks of the tail or wings missing. Have the pilot in the seat or nearby, or imply they bailed on a more violent crash.
Thank you. Yes, I agree that it would improve it to have a story and some additional detail. I might revisit it in the near future when time allows.
Poor guy bought it! Open the canopy, give him a chance!
😂
That's a very simple but effective diorama. Great idea for making the reeds!
A couple of questions: Roughly what ratio of washing-up liquid to water do you use? And did you record the music yourself? It suits the calm, relaxed style of your commentary very well. I noticed a Gibson case/gig bag in one of your other videos so I suspect you play guitar.
Thanks Ian. I’m not particularly accurate with the washing up liquid but I would say it’s approximately 10%.
Yes, I do play the backing music although I really need to record some new tunes! Is that a bass you’re playing in your profile pic.
Would be more realistic if the canopy was open, but pretty neat diorama.
Thanks Gavin
Looks amazing. Just wondering if, since the Spit is a low wing plane, if it would not have created a wider hole when breaching the fence. Although English fences might be tougher than usual ;-)
Yep, the English fences are indestructible!! 😂😉
@@DartsideScenics "Stiff upper lip" applies to fences too, right? ;-)
@@rc-fannl7364 😂
It’s great, just an impact from a plane like that on the ground should have a bit more damage from impact. Other than that it’s great!
Thank you
I'm impressed with the scene and the way it''s put together. I have to applaud the reed bed, it looks very natural. As a matter of fact, I'm gonna steal your method. I'm doing an armor diorama ATM and am beating myself over the head trying to come up with bullrushes. You mentioned in a reply to Iceman that you figured the Spit rolled through the fence on it's gear and then flopped down. That would work but in that case, the landing gear would not have left such large gouges in the earth. To me, it looked like a belly landing. The only other thing, the Spit is too clean, with little or no weathering. I'm curious as to why the canopy is clouded over.
Thank you, it will be great to see your diorama when it’s done. To be honest, this is the first time I have built a spitfire kit and I always have regrets when I finish a diorama. I learn something new every time though so that’s always useful.
@@DartsideScenics I would have left the canaopy open too as the pilot is clearly not still in it. The lack of damage would suggest a forced landing and so he/she would have simply climbed out. A little damage to the wings caused by colliding with the fence would have added to the effect. It is a very good model nevertheless.
BTW, I just remembered, Douglas Bader, the pilot with tin legs, forgot to change prop pitch on one of his first Spitfire flights. He ran down the length of the field and into a fence at 80 mph. Just another possibility for the why of it. This was during the Phoney War as he was transitioning to Spits. If you haven't read his book "Reach for the sky" go find it. I reread it every few years. This guy should be the dictionary photo for determination. He pranged a Bristol Bulldog while stunting and lost both legs. He recovered, learned to walk again and went on to regain his flying status but was rejected by the RAF and invalided out. Come WWII he walked in the door and told them to retest him. This time they took him back because he PROVED he could fly with the best of them.
Its a good build for the scale of the aircraft, but surely more of the fence would have been damaged of gone. The wings would have taken them out... But like I said for the scale well done..
That fence must be made of rubber! 🤣
@@DartsideScenics Aye it must be lol
Fantastic job, mate. But the important question remains unanswered: Did you win?
Thanks Dave! No, I didn't but I'm not bitter....😢🤣
I have this exact model but I botched it and turned the rudder the wrong way, so instead of it banking into a turn, it would just be skidding across the sky and likely going into a spin. I may try and turn it into a crash, not sure
Sounds like a good idea to turn it into a crash.
Does anybody know why the canopy is painted over?
The creator has no idea what he’s doing 😂
@@DartsideScenics The diorama still looks really good though, but if the canopy was clear it would be perfect 👌
L avion devrait être plus endommagé,aile cassée hélice également .
Sinon bel ensemble
Merci Patrice
What do you mean by “ washing up Liquid “ soapy water?
Ok I found out . In America we call it dish soap.
@@RockinL7BuckingBulls that's right. I need to remember that for future videos.
@@DartsideScenics thank you for your videos. I’m building a Bat Cave to highlight my model Bat mobile model. Your so helpful with this scenic project.
@@RockinL7BuckingBulls that sounds awesome, have fun with it 👍🏻
Fun diorama, but i prefer people like ebroins minatufes and hobbytime or whatever his name is
Thank you for the comment, but I prefer other people’s comments 😂.
Seriously though, they are great channels and I’m glad you enjoy them.
Смола при полимерзации дает заметную усадку. Если на берегу это можно исправить, то на объете ,погруженном в "воду",это видно.
