Those God Rays coming through the window (Chef's Kiss). It's great to see the inspector making a cameo as a gigantic Sand Worm from Dune... Plus he even had a speaking line, so now he can get his SAG card. You'll have to pay him more. I think that this series involves The Doors of Perception and Mr. Huxley would be proud indeed. Amazing work, N!
Most of the miniature creators I follow create their dioramas for a variety of reasons but I think you're the only one who creates miniatures specifically for filming and photography. I really appreciate that you always add a little bit about your set up and process in addition to the end results. I personally don't do any sort of filmmaking but I do enjoy seeing the process behind the end result of the video/clip creation in addition to the model making.
I’ve been doing paintings lately that feel the same way you described. It’s a dimension that lives deep in the mind. I really appreciate everything you make. What a difference using atmosphere a motion have on filming a model. Of course we know this, we’ve been seeing models in film since film began. But seeing you do it all is awesome.
here me out just to always make you feel motivated please do miniature related to films this would actually help grow your channel alot and also give you alot of motivation since we can’t deny thats we need to follow the trend to attract more views then just do whatever you want and you wil still get alot of view since people already love you ! And they stay because of you think like doing miniature from film like a marketing strategy and the person who stay is the one who feel glad to know you keep up the work!
omg the shot of the cat was best one. 😂 "Giant Sand Cat discovered in Namibian Desert" Wow, I know nothing about film equipment, but this reminded me of using the "tween" button in animation in Photoshop. (Older PS versions, anyway), but in a "3 dimensional" situation with photography. Always loved the photos of abandoned places in the desert. I spent a lot of time taking pics in these locations. It's like... There is a doubling effect of mood because not only is the structure abandoned, but the land around it as well. [Fun fact for our Physicist friends: This is the same spot in Namibia where Professor Brian Cox did an example on the Second Law of Thermodynamics: Entropy; in one of his BBC documentaries.] I'll stop nerding now. 😁🤭🤓 Great set as always. Love your work!
If you want some more material to go off of, liminal spaces are really good for surreal an dreamlike places, I really enjoy the backrooms and dream spaces like that
Definitely a real cool world and work. Maybe an abandoned Mc Escher like room might make for a nice representation of the wierd way dream logic works sometimes.
I really love the idea of a hallway filled with doors that leads you to different worlds. There is a book series called "The Wayward Children" series by Seanan McGuire that has to do with the prospect of opening a door and finding yourself in a different world. Somewhere on the doors is always written "Be Sure", as in be sure before you open the door, and that reminds me of the hallway of doors you were talking about. The sand is mad cool and I would be terrified if I walked through a doorway to find a room like this so fantastic job in that regard too! 🙂
These are surreal, I can picture a dream of abandoned tall apartments that are flooded over with makeshift bridges above and wildlife below. I've had this dream a few times, and each was a different moment. Sunrise, midday, and sunset.
Have you ever watched the Movie "What dreams may come"? It's an emotional movie dealing with life scenarios, but the entire movie is visually amazing. It might give you some inspiration. :)
I'm a little late to the video but when I saw a kitty in the thumbnail I knew it was something I had to see if there was kitten help 🙂. I love your work
I wasn't expected to see Mr. Inspector after you announced the final shot. Good joke, I liked it. And the idea of some dream world with many doors leading to the different places is awesome! Reminds me about The Talos Principle videogame, I was really excited to explore those decaying worlds behind the doors. I'd really love to see the world of your imagination!
First I starting watching you for the esthetic and hoped to learn a few construction techniques…but wow have I learned a lot about light and shadow. I’ll never be able to work at this type of level but you’re always inspiring me to expand my vision. I love the idea of a dream world…each door a different reality in time and space and dimension. Whenever I see doors in sand I think of Stephen King’s Gunslinger series and this kinda gives me those vibes
Astrophysicist Professor Brian Cox visited this site for one of his TV shows. It's a seriously eerie site. Another similar place is the abandoned site of the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia. That place just gives me the creeps! Gorgeous model, as always. The quality of your work leaves me in awe, every time. Thank you. 👍👍👍
Really like this. While I also like you take on different movie scenes, this recent series set in a world of your own creation is awesome. It reminds me Lori Nix's work, but has a more intimate vibe. Like I should know these places. Thank you for all your effort.
New to the channel, love the videos! A cool idea would be an interior shot with a hand coming out of the floor. Maybe you or someone else could stick your hand up through a hole and actually move around while the camera is filming. It could look really strange/dreamlike with the hand being so large in the environment
Cool! I know this picture! It is in Namibia, I saw a tv show about this place! Love your work! Yep, doors are a classic in fantasy litterature and movies: I think of the door to the Afterlife Office in Beetlejuice, the doors to Narnia, the ones in A Nightmare Before Christmas, not to forget Alice in Wonderland, and I certainly forget a few!!!
Wanna recreate those "waves" from the original photos? Depressing the back of an oval or round spoon in a scale pattern into the sand is one way to achieve this 👍
Pretty kool. I love the idea of shifting sands, so this makes me curious if you would ever try doing old school practical fx like using air bladders or simple motorized functions to add a sense of life. set an air bladder under the sand/earth/behind a wall or under a blanket so as the camera moves you just slight/subtle movement to the clip. Gawd thinking of what you could accomplish with really small/simple water pumps for aquariums to add dripping/draining or small flow to the things you make is in itself pretty mind blowing. I realize for the long term it wouldn't be practical(in the long term) but for footage and demonstrations (ever take these on the road to con's?) it'd open possibilities for all kinds of dream like or fascinating sequences.
Beautiful and not easy to make it. Please, Make Darth Vader Vs Joseph Crackstone from Wednesday in Wednesday School Diorama. Everyone want New Battle Diorama about Darth Vader Vs Joseph Crackstone from Wednesday.
First rule of Sandbox: If I fits, I sits.
Hehee...great build!! Love the lighting and use of screens for background image and ambiance!
Reminds me of one of Tame Impala's album covers.
Those God Rays coming through the window (Chef's Kiss).

Amazing work, N!
I can see why it was abandoned, giant kitties lurking about. Love your imagination and creativity. Looking forward to more of your little world.
LoL! It's a good one!
The kitty moment was the highlight for me 😂
sandman comes to mind for me when you talk about the world that could be dreams, Love it. Thanks as always for sharing.
Looking so beautiful, it's very poetique.
I actually loved the kitty peeping in, really gave in to that dream Scape feel.
The cat haunts this dream world I see. Love the sand you got for this. Very fine grit.
The stream of light beaming down on the chair in the sand was just perfection! Definitely felt like a dream!

Cats are so funny! So nosy! Cool piece! Nature take over.
The desert dreamland... it works for me 💜
Wieder einmal ein tolles Diorama . Einfach toll. 🙂👍

As always the atmosphere is amazing

Love your ideas of building a dreamworld and your skills TOP NOTCH!

Giant desert cat!! :) I like the dream world concept, particularly as it concerns doorways.

As always, beautiful surreal work, love it!
Love it.

Awesome modeling!
I'm a little late to the video but when I saw a kitty in the thumbnail I knew it was something I had to see if there was kitten help 🙂. I love your work
Sooooo Cool! Thank you for the video. Your work is very inspiring.
You should try to do Stop Motion with these skills man! As an animator myself I could only dream of having all that equipment and sets like that.
I wasn't expected to see Mr. Inspector after you announced the final shot. Good joke, I liked it.
And the idea of some dream world with many doors leading to the different places is awesome! Reminds me about The Talos Principle videogame, I was really excited to explore those decaying worlds behind the doors. I'd really love to see the world of your imagination!
Beautiful result as always! And I like that the sand looks in scale :)
amazing work, love it

Awesome as always. I'd like to see what you could come up with a psychedelic scene ....
Looking forward to your next surprise. 😉👍
nice, this is what i'm waiting for
very interested in details on your setup, thanks!
Really like this. While I also like you take on different movie scenes, this recent series set in a world of your own creation is awesome. It reminds me Lori Nix's work, but has a more intimate vibe. Like I should know these places. Thank you for all your effort.
The mcesher style ending of Jim Henson's Labyrinth would be wild to build
I like your style ! I suscribe

Maybe you or someone else could stick your hand up through a hole and actually move around while the camera is filming.

This low key kind of reminds of Tame Impala’s album cover for his album, The Slow Rush
You know you're doing good work when the cats want to look.
I knew the exact photo you referred to, awesome. Also I love how that cat got Nestle Crunched lolololol
Cool! I know this picture! It is in Namibia, I saw a tv show about this place! Love your work! Yep, doors are a classic in fantasy litterature and movies: I think of the door to the Afterlife Office in Beetlejuice, the doors to Narnia, the ones in A Nightmare Before Christmas, not to forget Alice in Wonderland, and I certainly forget a few!!!
Edit: I just realized a lot of what I mentionned above are Tim Burton movies. I guess the guy loves doors? LOL!
wow look so cool :D
Tame Impala!

Extracting the cat took me out 😂
I love cats
Very surreal I enjoyed it a lot. What is your job?
immense talent sir. You might be interested by Final Fantasy VII Sector 7 abandoned church. It might suit your style, regards
Awesome as always!!
But at 06:36 ...top😂
Beautiful and not easy to make it.

Giant kitty monster 😂🥰
Could you recreate the bedroom from the movie Midsommar?
