If you've ever wanted to build an awesome, stunning river diorama, well, that's probably why you're here.
In this tutorial I guide you through the process of building an incredibly realistic scene.
The techniques can be applied to model railway layouts or to wargaming terrain.
I use epoxy resin and scenic fibres to make the river and Mod Podge Gloss for the ripples, and various scenic materials - mostly by Woodland Scenics and Noch - for the greenery.
The technique I used for the trees was inspired by Luke Towan (link to his video below). In the highly unlikely event that you don't subscribe to his channel already, do it.

Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoy the build!

i love watching diorama buildings and seeing the different techniques used by different people
Me too!
Me three
Me four.
Me five.
absolutely gorgeous, it would never have crossed my mind to use fibers to simulate water rushing. im planning to make a small river diorama but all i have is a bottle of vallejo still water so its going to be a challenge
So how did it come out?
Nice shoutout to Luke Towan! I like the fibers in the water - it looks very organic. Well done! :)
Oh, my goodness...what an absolutely beautiful scene you made! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills with others.
That’s amazing. I don’t have any talent for this but enjoy watching it very much. Thanks for sharing.
this is the best example of rushing water i've seen yet. thanks for showing the scenic fibers. i haven't seen these yet. was skeptical at the start but the finish product is superb.
Well done mate. One of the best representations of water I have seen in a diorama or layout.
One of the best I've seen around on the web ...if not the best one. Extremely well done....especially for the water effect. Thumbs up.
It looks like I’m going to have to buy some Modge Podge - matt and gloss. Great tutorial and I appreciated the high speed.
The Streams
The coulors
The grass
The water
IT IS JUST AWSOME!
This is literally incredible
Where have you been for all of my life ? Dude..! You are simply amazing ! I could sit an watch your artistry skill hours on end, it's mesmerizing to see your work start from virtually so little and in no time it's real right before your eyes. Thank-you so much.
Great show! I love the voice over on the timelapse - shows the whole process yet takes less time to show it. Cheers! Kaustav
Thanks, Kaustav. Glad you enjoyed it.
It looks beautiful. You are amazing sir
You are such a massive mood. Love this so much
I enjoyed the river design very very nice
Thank you for sharing - brilliant technique and stunning result (will certainly try to replicate).
fantastic. i love watching and learning.
Simply brilliant. Thank you for sharing.
Great video. Very interesting, and informative. I have watched several times.
U did so good.Thanks.
I don't know why... but these things calm me... not just the music... the diorama coming together...
Amazing work
Inspiring job, it looks superb and so realistic, makes me want to try this one day, congrats!
Thank you 😊
Wonderful! Awesome!
Water looks great
amazing work man.
Great video, great timing as well as I have a lake, water falls and a river to do and you just gave me some of the best ideas to date. Just purchased the Delux Scenic fibers on E Bay; LAST ONE! What a great touch!.
I just hope I can do half as well as you. Very creative. Thank you for sharing
Fabulous, I love it.
Wow amazing love how you make this look so real so talented

Wow! Amazing diorama and fantastic build. I saw this diorama being built on Instagram and thought I have to see the video on this.
Thanks, Luke. 😊
I' so amaze watching this video
Its so satisfied to watch ur video lol
absolutely breathtaking. u are incredible 💝
Thank you so much 😊
Extraordinary skills
Stunning ...... from a new subscriber....... regards Fred
Please keep making videos! I love your videos i really do enjoy! I hope i can make my own in the future! It is so inspiring! You deserve more
Thank you! I will 😁
Very nice water, super 👍👍👍
I would just like to say that I think that is fantastic work and I really just got into this kind of crafting a few months ago but if I can become as half as good as you are, then I will be happy, but I've really got caught up in this kind of crafting so when you are ready to take me under your wing and max me out, I'm ready lol.
Look fun. I wonder how much should i spend to get all the stuff.. just basic stuff, wanna try to make one. Look like easy, not to complicated, maybe need alot of patience.
This looks very good. My mother is very spiritual and naturalistic and I'm planning on attempting to make something like this with a working water pump with a reservoir under the diorama. I'll have to find some alternatives from the materials used here as I doubt running water through this kind of stuff would be very good but I think it'll be a nice challenge
Cheers. Yes, nothing good for water here, but good luck! Look forward to seeing it.
Fantastic!
Stunning! Never seen the fiber trick before, I'll remember and use that one for sure.
Just curious, how many total hours do you have in this small diorama?
Thank you. Probably about ten.
This is amazing woooow your awesome
Awesome!
Adorable I luv it 😍😍
Real talent and a beautifully put together video - Subscribed!
Thank you!
my man...
wtf why would you spend so much time and holy shi it looks good af 👌👌👌
Amazing thanks much!
Very cool
keep it up 👍
Looks super awesome!! Greetings,, Kitty.
So great!👍🏻👍🏻❤️
Lindo ,lindo lindo 👏👏👏👏
Thank you!!!
Hello from Delaware. It's phenomenal...like 3-D artistry. I have a wood deck behind my house that has a wooden planked wall on one end. I think a long diorama river running along the intersection of the wall and the deck would be great. Thank you for your videos and God Bless.
I just found your channel, and I already love it!! Keep up the great work
Thank you 😊
@@HighEyeWorkshop Can we be friends? 😁
Very nice! Love your dioramas. Thanks for sharing. Randy
Cheers Randy
Epic!
Incredible!! Congrats
Impresionante sigue así 🎈👍
The skewers undermined the beautiful realism of the model, are there any alternative methods of creating tree trunks?
Water looks beyond awesome...
But did you watch all the Luke Towan videos, or did he watch all of yours, because sometimes, its a 1:1 thing with you 2.
He Watched prop. all of Luke's ... Nice Copy Cat ..
@@XaiceOriginal The scenery is not Luke's, so I wont call it a copy. Luke is doing tutorials and that means, he is probably happy people learn from him and do their own thing. I learned a thing...or 100 from him. I would still mention Luke though.
Отличная работа! С меня лайк.
фантастически круто!
Amazing work Sir, love it
Hands down, you make the best and most realistic water/wave effects! It's always a joy to see the end results!
Thank you 😊
Eu também não vai acreditar no seu sonho tem que ser grosso ser Na sexta feira e a gente se fala de todo mundo que o Gui falou que eram os alunos à noite mãe essa música no primeiro
Fantastic!
I have a question....after these scenes are completed what does one do with these works of art?
Thank you. I make them for the videos only at the moment.
been waiting for this video. insulate and heat your shed! :) I have the same problem, the only real workspace I have for larger projects is the garage and its not insulated or heated, or even well lit for that matter.
Thank you. It is insulated. I just need a better heater!
I'd love to see you recreate salt flats.
Its amazing
Very nice
Thank you
Wow! That’s the most realistic river I’ve ever seen!
Excellent!! Fantastic job!! Could you please tell me what other type of plaster other than Plaster of Paris would work with dioramas on expanded polystyrene, because where l live, Plaster of Paris cannot be found anywhere. Thanks in advance!
Thank you! I'm not an expert on plasters, but filler would work. Polyfilla or something.
@@HighEyeWorkshop ok, thanks a lot for the answer! Keep up the good work!
Out of all of these that I've watched, it just dawned on me what the camera hasn't caught.. (the camera itself) .... glue and paint and twigs and leaves, epoxy resin and even trees. Must look like it's own Diorama. hehe
nice!
Recently found your channel, subscribed and watched all your videos! Very inspiring so far :-) Would love to see some different autumn techniques if ya looking for ideas. Keep up the great work!
Actually, autumn is on the agenda! Thanks for the kind words.
superbe !
Again Top Notch...
Super.
Just watched this one again and I saw you put the Sculptamold directly onto the foam. Can you put Sculptamold and Plaster of Paris directly onto wood? Will it stick?
Yeah, it should be fine.
Really nice and distinguished work.
Muito legal adorei
That is so cool I wonder where he learned to do that
I just discovered your channel because I recently started building my first ever diorama :) I'm so excited and a little sad that I didn't get into this hobby sooner. Your videos are great, thank you 😊
Greatjob, thanks for sharing your job
