Hey all, hope you enjoy this one 😎 even though I use some pretty unique and specialist tools there are still heaps of tips and tricks throughout the video that all modelers could apply. I’ve included chapters to make it easier to navigate through the video and with the new RUclips update you will be able to see the different chapters as you scrub through the timeline, or the full list of chapters is in the description 😉
lol... you were an inspiration for sure! I've been enjoying your stuff for ages 😃 Hopefully you get some more viewers because if they are interested in what I'm doing I know they will love seeing your stuff as well, keep up the work 😉
My two favourite model/ scenic crafters in YT too. I wish I had more concentration span to start making models of some sort, but for now I just watch your videos! Cheers from Finland!
It goes both ways. This is the first video of Lukes I've seen, and I'm pretty sure it was recommended to me because I watch your videos. And like that, Luke got a new subscriber.
Normally, when hobbyists call their own projects "awesome" or "amazing," it seems immodest, and I don't like it. But your work is so photorealistic and superlative that it's justified and proper. Never ceases to amaze.
Came here to say that; honestly has to look twice ... Dammit Luke. But it made me notice the extra detail he put into the time tracker on the video; you can go to the area you need like 'Painting the Bridge' or 'Adding the mortar' And that's a neat trick.
😂 I know exactly how you feel, sometimes I watch RUclips videos of people making things and literally feel exhausted for them and I'm just sitting on the couch!
lol... yeah I spent ages setting up the photo, I actually did quite a lot of research trying to find that location just so I could take the photos. Google maps was very helpful 😃
Thanks Merrick, I spent a while researching a location to photograph this model, thank god for google maps! I had to make sure the river was accessible with a bridge so I could get close to the middle of the river and it also needed to be in the right direction with respect to the sun. Glad you liked it 😃
This videos are not only relaxing but also very inspiring to me. Every second of these videos are full of perfection and professionalism. The narration, presentation and editing even. Love it.
Can we just take a second to realise not only how long it took to physically make, but also to shoot, edit and do the voice over too! Mad insane work rate dude! Amazing as always. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome build, i live very near to the real Ironbridge (designed by Thomas Farnolls Pritchard) and its amazing to see you make something i see repeatedly in the flesh. What gave you the inspiration to build this particular bridge?
Thanks mate, I actually first saw the bridge on Thingiverse as a downloadable file and thought ooooh that looks cool and then I googled the actual bridge and immediately knew I had to make a model of this!
Personal opinion here I'm no expert on such things. But I feel like a few small boats or kayaks in the river could've done wonders. I get that the main focus is the bridge. And doing ripples around such things would be a major pain but I feel like it would've added something who knows. In any case your amazing at what you do and I hope you keep blessing us with great content!
You are one of the best diorama makers I have seen on RUclips, the video quality is excellent! I have seen other builders make dioramas and videos but your videos are like TV show quality, very enjoyable!
Thanks mate, I know there are some outstanding modelers on youtube but it's also good to hear you appreciate what I do as well. I put quite a lot of time into the filming and editing to make it enjoyable to watch 😉
just about had a heart attack when you turned it upside down to tap the grass off. I'd be too terrified to do anything like that, after so long. Actually I seem to get a small version of that feeling every five minutes in your vids, like, "noooo what are you covering all that up with paint/glue for? it already looked great, you'll ru--- oh, ok, yeah, that's even better." Amazing end result
Hi Luke, I live about 30 miles from Iron Bridge in the UK, What an amazing diorama of this bridge, possibly one of your best. Love your work, just incredible.
I knew this bridge when i saw it! i have been to the town surrounding this bridge countless times because i have family there on the little hill behind it. beautiful town and scenery! great job!
When I first looked at the thumbnail pic I thought "that looks really familiar". I used to live near the real iron bridge here in the UK, over 40 years ago!! Woodworking type joints were used to assemble the individual pieces together and the bridge was considered a technological marvel in its time. If memory serves me well its in a slightly different setting to what you've done. I think It's built in a gorge that had terraced houses running parallel to the river on one side and trees along the opposite side, it used to be a beautiful place but I expect its changed somewhat since I last saw it. Superb tutorial as always. And it literally DOES look like the real thing. In my opinion your the best scenery expert on RUclips and your tutorials have helped me a bunch. Thank you for your hard work.
It has changed quite substantially since then its now a busy highstreet with many shops restaurants and pubs including a world famous butchers and you'll probably remember the 4 cooling towers of ironbridge powerstation whish were some of the largest in the UK well they were demolished no more so it looks rather different there now.
@@kallumwilliams5020 I lived in Telford not far from the Thomas Telford school in a place called Wigmore woodside from the age of 5 or 6 and at about 7 my best friend and I got hold of a map book and decided it didn't look very far on the map so we walked to iron bridge from Telford. We got there OK but couldn't find our way back and my parents had to come and get us. I don't remember too much about the area around it but I will never forget the bridge. Oh, and the old iron works that was close to it, the school took us there on a field trip showing us how things were made back when the bridge was built.
that has become awesome again. When I took the first pictures I thought that it was the original and also at the end you can not see the difference between the original and the model. Awesome: Regards Tino
When working with masking tape you can spray your first coat with a clear, either matte or gloss and it should block most of the spots where subsequent paint coats may bleed under the mask. It really helps get clean lines.
Luke - I suppose this is as good a place as any to add my thanks to others.' This bridge tutorial is stunning, but honestly it's the sort of imagination, ingenuity, craftsmanship and quality we've long come to expect from you. Your hands are those of a true master and your mind works hard. I especially want to comment on your generosity. There are a raft of others who post what is sometimes excellent material. There are also those who jealously guard their techniques and what they've learned, or who are not as able as you are to put the material they share across as artfully as you do. Your posts are the product of as much hard work to get the video, and the occasional related linked extras, down perfectly as much as the design and construction of what you present. Your videos are now on my short list of go-to sources because I know you won't waste our time, your methods and instructions are tested, reliable and superbly well thought-out. Your results are an inspiration. So, thank you as much for your generosity in sharing every detail as for the excellence of the materials and techniques you introduce us to. Your presentations are one of the best representations I know of, of the welcoming kindness of the modeling community worldwide. You are one of our best examples. I'm an old Navy man. We take a sort of proprietary view of an old blessing that's been around as long as sailors have been, and I offer it to you with my thanks, respect and admiration: may you always have fair winds and following seas!
Yesterday: "I haven't seen a new post from Luke Towan for awhile. Whatever he's up to will surely be worth the wait..." Today: The clouds parted, and I was right... :) p.s. Nice to see the shoutout to Black Magic Craft. You guys are two of my favorite crafters.
I watch your channel for a while now and it's not only inspiring for me as a modeler but also to relax. For over a year now there is a lot of stress with bad nights but watching one of your projects in bed calms me down and I fall asleep. Don't get me wrong, it's not because it's boring but your voice and the music you choose are like a meditation. It steers my mind away from the stress. Thanks you.
Was scrolling and thought I recognised the bridge on the thumbnail as the Ironbridge (which is in my home town) but thought there was something slightly off.... and then I realised. Exceptional work once again Luke!
Another amazing build Luke, stunning levels of detail in this one. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the video, and (as always) was totally blown away by the finished product 😀👍
I live near this bridge in Shropshire, I like how you built it, it's a fantastic structure of history. Shame you didn't build her the way she is, no cars cross her only foot traffic. Looks like you have transported her across the world.
One suggestion on your masking. A shot of dull coat once you get the masking in place helps seal the edges. Great videos and appreciate you sharing them.
Hi Luke, I am Pablo from Argentina, I wanted to congratulate you for what you do, they are a true work of art, your creations. As much as possible, I would like the subtitles to come out in Spanish, so that I can enjoy your content even more. I thank you in advance for sharing what you do.
I had the chance to go to Ironbridge on a high school ‘holiday’ trip once, but the alternative choice was the Lake District, and I picked to go there instead. It was quite memorable, mostly because my classmates behaved like dicks and I got food poisoning, then someone else had to get medical attention for a cracked rib at 3am. Good times!
Not sure how or why I ended up here, but This is incredible!! I had no idea about the world of Dioramas. Absolutely amazing!! I must now binge every video you have posted!
i live next to the ironbridge in telford, UK. i was delighted to see this show up in my feed! great work.. it’s only recently been painted this reddish colour, which was believed to be close to the original look! it’s such an iconic bridge here
At a few points of the intro sequence I got confused why you were showing us a real bridge. I thought it might have been your inspiration. Then you zoomed the camera out. Fantastic video! So realistic and beautiful
Wow, that's amazing!!!! This looks alot like the cast iron bridge in Spanish Town Jamaica.... One of the few if not only remaining cast iron bridge in the world!!
I’m always very happy when I come across a new video. I’ve been watching this channel for years and even went as far as watching some videos three or four times.
You're spot on with the claim that "water scenics really draw attention". Coming from an automotive scale modelling background, this is 100% true. We have a diorama category in scale auto shows/contests and epoxy water always draws people in and they tend to frequently win. The only time water dioramas lose in fact, is to other highly creative works that are equally interesting. Like one of the scene from Home Improvement, when Tim drops an I-beam through a car. Apparently, the act of smashing an I-beam into a hot plastic scale model car, ends up with a lot of burnt fingers and isn't the easiest thing to do, lol. And he got the broken window glass perfect in the diorama. So he won by sheer ingenuity because people were in awe of the authenticity, it was an epic diorama. But water ones win every other year, so there, lol. I think one of the biggest questions besides "what was that like getting the I-beam smashed into the car so well?" was the question "how did you get the glass that is still in the door to look so real and jagged, it's so realistic" and indeed it was. It's one of the things that really, really catches the eye and do you think I can remember how he said he did it? Haha, it's been many years and I was only half listening cause my buddy's kid was blabbing.
Luke your modelling work is totally amazing as anyone reading this would agree. All beautifully explained through all the different processes used. Thank You for sharing your work and solutions in working with materials, paints and glues. You are the God of Grand Designs and I will look forward to your new projects and to view past videos that you have made on modelling scenes and building tools to work with the materials.
Luke. I don't know how you manage to Excel on every model you make, model after model. My mind boggles as to how high you will end up eventually. They are amazing and this is number one. ( Until your next ) Brilliant.
You should 3d print some Death Star personell to stand next to the Laser tube of the laser cutter, remember: no guard rails! Great modelling as always!
My Master builder at work. Luke, this was another expert video that I along with many others appreciate very much. With your expert tutoring makes the subject a joy to follow. Keep up the great work.
@@BoulderCreekRailroad I definitely will be. I am still (I know I am slow) building or should I say lining my 25 x 12 foot shed for my layout. There are just so many of your tutorials that I will be revisiting when I am ready.
Hi Luke. First class work. Having visited this bridge on many occasions your video made me smile with wonder at your skills. I then thought how much I would like to see you create the Victoria Bridge on the Severn Valley Railway a heritage line. Congratulations on a quantity project. 🚂🚃🚃🚃
Oh Luke, that is simply beautiful, and so good to see Mrs Luke helping you......thank you sooo much. Please take care and be safe. Much love from south africa
We comment on every video about the beauty of these dioramas but we never comment about the amazing camera work that goes into the videos. The production values, trick photography, music and overall quality of these videos is really far and above what every other You Tuber produces. Thanks for the amazing videos especially in these hard times.
Hey all, hope you enjoy this one 😎 even though I use some pretty unique and specialist tools there are still heaps of tips and tricks throughout the video that all modelers could apply.
I’ve included chapters to make it easier to navigate through the video and with the new RUclips update you will be able to see the different chapters as you scrub through the timeline, or the full list of chapters is in the description 😉
Thanks!
👌👍👍💯😉
thanks luke. these will definitley make it easier to navigate your videos.
GG for Million
is static grass called static grass because it uses static charges to make the static grass stay straight when applied
You know it's going to take a while when Luke uses words like "extremely time consuming". Another beautiful diorama, thanks once again!
He fortunately got help by his partner (just guessing, of course to be the "Lebensabschnittsgefährtin"). Good for you! All the best!
Hey Luke thanks for the shoutout! You made my day....oh who am I kidding? You made my week. Cheers man!
lol... you were an inspiration for sure! I've been enjoying your stuff for ages 😃 Hopefully you get some more viewers because if they are interested in what I'm doing I know they will love seeing your stuff as well, keep up the work 😉
And you got a new subscriber thanks to Luke mentioning you.

Jesus I thought this was a real image
Luke's powers are getting too strong
ha ha... lots of practice 😎
Something is rong I can feel it
Luke's definitely grown a huge amount in these past years.
I did, too. Sometimes I think he’s used a photo of the real thing as the thumbnail then shows how to make a replica!
Twist ending he modeled the very universe we sit in.
"there's no tricks to the construction"
*Proceeds to levitate a wood plank with is mind*
"Use the force Luke" 😀
Came here to say that; honestly has to look twice ... Dammit Luke. But it made me notice the extra detail he put into the time tracker on the video; you can go to the area you need like 'Painting the Bridge' or 'Adding the mortar' And that's a neat trick.
Valerie Pallaoro yeah, I noticed that too... very nice.
@@macf4426LOL😂😂😂
Man, I'm shocked, you placed a couple of THOUSANDS bricks ONE-BY-ONE?! I felt like giving up even while watching, you got some patience!
😂 I know exactly how you feel, sometimes I watch RUclips videos of people making things and literally feel exhausted for them and I'm just sitting on the couch!
Some patience? He has it all.
You know what would be cool to see you make? A coral reef.
yes!
First thought to the first shot of the video: "this is not a model". Zooms out
Damn.
lol... yeah I spent ages setting up the photo, I actually did quite a lot of research trying to find that location just so I could take the photos. Google maps was very helpful 😃
You have been bamboozled friendo
@@BoulderCreekRailroad a mountain side diorama with a railroad through a tunnel would be amazing 👍👍👍👍try to make it
tbh. it's always like that :D
thats every video lol
That shot where you pull away and reveal the real background blew my mind. As always, incredible work man!!! Amazing!
Ok this one is insanely realistic like, damn
Thanks Abdu, I was definitely happy with the end result.
Lol they all are!
Your comment gave me an idea, maybe he could do an ultra realistic scene of a hydroelectric dam.😁
No it’s a bridge
@@DrCrowPHD wanted to say exactly the same.....
Luke ist Bob Ross in 3d
Even his voice is soothing
True, true... the happy tree is that small one on the edge of the river :D
I love this bridge. I love how you photograph your dioramas. Inspirational.
Thanks Merrick, I spent a while researching a location to photograph this model, thank god for google maps! I had to make sure the river was accessible with a bridge so I could get close to the middle of the river and it also needed to be in the right direction with respect to the sun.
Glad you liked it 😃
@@BoulderCreekRailroad that's dedication!
It looks like iron bridge in the north of England
Wow, this looks absolutely amazing! And this is from someone who lives right by this very bridge made by Thomas Telford and now made by you! 😮
This videos are not only relaxing but also very inspiring to me. Every second of these videos are full of perfection and professionalism. The narration, presentation and editing even. Love it.

I live in Telford where the briage is lovely model
Also in Telford! Shropshire squad assemble
I lived in Much Wenlock as a kid, saw the thumbnail and immediately clocked it!
Personal opinion here I'm no expert on such things. But I feel like a few small boats or kayaks in the river could've done wonders. I get that the main focus is the bridge. And doing ripples around such things would be a major pain but I feel like it would've added something who knows. In any case your amazing at what you do and I hope you keep blessing us with great content!

1. "That looks nice, but he can't reproduce this as a model?" 2. A few seconds later: "Wow, this IS the model"! Most impressive.
That's what gets me every time. I told my mother about him. "There's this Australian scene modeler on RUclips..."

Apparently, the act of smashing an I-beam into a hot plastic scale model car, ends up with a lot of burnt fingers and isn't the easiest thing to do, lol. And he got the broken window glass perfect in the diorama. So he won by sheer ingenuity because people were in awe of the authenticity, it was an epic diorama. But water ones win every other year, so there, lol. I think one of the biggest questions besides "what was that like getting the I-beam smashed into the car so well?" was the question "how did you get the glass that is still in the door to look so real and jagged, it's so realistic" and indeed it was. It's one of the things that really, really catches the eye and do you think I can remember how he said he did it? Haha, it's been many years and I was only half listening cause my buddy's kid was blabbing.
Luke your modelling work is totally amazing as anyone reading this would agree. All beautifully explained through all the different processes used. Thank You for sharing your work and solutions in working with materials, paints and glues. You are the God of Grand Designs and I will look forward to your new projects and to view past videos that you have made on modelling scenes and building tools to work with the materials.
It's amazing that you made and placed all those tiny individual bricks! 😲💙
Amazing. I appreciate your videos so much. Best regards from Brazil. Cheers.
Luke. I don't know how you manage to Excel on every model you make, model after model. My mind boggles as to how high you will end up eventually. They are amazing and this is number one. ( Until your next ) Brilliant.
Wow, thank you! I also surprise myself a lot as well, glad you have been enjoying them 😉
You should 3d print some Death Star personell to stand next to the Laser tube of the laser cutter, remember: no guard rails!
Great modelling as always!
My Master builder at work. Luke, this was another expert video that I along with many others appreciate very much. With your expert tutoring makes the subject a joy to follow. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much Colin, glad you've been enjoying the videos all this time 😉 I hope you continue to enjoy the future videos.
@@BoulderCreekRailroad I definitely will be. I am still (I know I am slow) building or should I say lining my 25 x 12 foot shed for my layout. There are just so many of your tutorials that I will be revisiting when I am ready.
Saw the thumbnail and thought it was real! I love your creations so much man! ♥️

We comment on every video about the beauty of these dioramas but we never comment about the amazing camera work that goes into the videos. The production values, trick photography, music and overall quality of these videos is really far and above what every other You Tuber produces. Thanks for the amazing videos especially in these hard times.
This bridge are amazing as all of Your's projects!! :) Perfect realism and details..
Nice touch with Waldo during the bricks. :D
Once again, I am astounded by your talents and creativity. You leave me speechless, not to mention green with envy!! Thank you.
