Build & Animate an ULTRA-REALISTIC Diorama - Realistic Scenery Vol.16

Ойын-сауық

If you’ve ever wanted to build a realistic diorama and actually have vehicles and bicycle riders moving along the road then this video is a must see!
You can download the 3D printer files to recreate these scenes from my website:
www.bouldercreekrailroad.com/...
In this video I’ll show you every step I took to create this fantastic diorama, including the building, working road with vehicles and bike riders and all the tiny details that fill the scene. It’s all there.
The Magnorail is the main feature of this diorama and this particular starter kit was sent to me from Clyde at Magnorail Oz.
Using the Faller car system is not always the easiest way to get era specific cars running as the size of the car is limited to what battery and motor will fit, the magnorail can work with any vehicle from O scale down to N and possibly Z scale.
The main limitation is vehicles that are too big as weight can be an issue if there are any inclines for big vehicles larger than O scale.
Check out www.MagnorailOz.com.au
Some of the details I use have their own dedicated tutorials and I only briefly describe the process in this video, for a more detailed description you can find the additional KZread tutorials here:

3D printer files, for those of you interested in printing the files I use in this project you’ll find them on my website, just be aware that I used an Anycubic Photon to print these files which is a very high detail resin printer, trying to print these files with an FDM 3D printer and not a resin 3D printer will very likely give a less than desirable result.
A little story for people who actually read the description… thank you 
On the day I was taking photos it was pouring down with rain, I was waiting all morning for a break in the weather and when it did come I had about 45 minutes to get the shots, in the final shot 2 shots of the video you can see the rain coming over the hills, about 2 minutes after those shots it started pouring down again.
I would have liked to get better photos before finishing this video but due to the tropical cyclone nearby it was making it very difficult. When the weather eventually passes and we get some decent weather I’ll take some extra footage and post it onto the website.
The music used was downloaded from Epidemic sound.

While waiting for my next video, I've created a new Instagram account for my fans to post completed dioramas you've created (Conditions apply).

    I do not make models. I have no desire to make models. Yet I just watched a FORTY-FIVE MINUTE video about how to make a diorama, and loved EVERY MINUTE. I just love watching the details come together to make a scene that legitimately looks 100% real. I had to watch the finished results at the beginning and end and keep telling myself "that's a model!" because it just blew my mind. Thank you so much for your incredibly interesting videos! Even people who don't make models enjoy them, which is high praise.

    First of all; KZread has everyone afraid of producing a video longer than 20 minutes. If what you are doing with the video is interesting, most folks, young and old, will watch intently for a lot longer than that. Your videos are so well edited and narrated I would watch an hour and still be amazed at your craftsmanship and care for details. You, sir, are indeed a master modeler. I've seen dioramas in the Smithsonian that were not as believable as your work. P.S. Great photo magic as well.

    Re: Spray painting (even with an airbrush): There was, back in the day, a pretty well known professional model painter, whose name I can't remember at the moment--his talents were often shown off in "Mainline Modeler" magazine, a US model railroad specific magazine. In those days many modelers used lacquer based paints, brand name Floquil (the brand name is still around), and unfortunately this very talented modeler ended up killing himself, because he failed to use adequate respiration protection or a paint booth as part of his regimen. He died not of cancer, which many chemical compounds still make use of and can cause in the long-term...but literally of toxicity due to overexposure to chemically dangerous paint fumes and particulates. Not that even lower amounts of exposure will do you very much good either.... I bring this up because you, Luke, very often seem to spray paint, and particularly paints like Rustoleum, around somewhat haphazardly/casually, and without obvious, adequate respiration (at least where the videos are concerned). Maybe your regulars have already heard your recommendations where sprays are concerned, but as a new subscriber, those aren't all that obvious, even if they are already out there. Paint splattering? Cool. Dry brushing? obviously cool. Dusts, chalks and other dirts? Cool--you are as exposed to those as much as if you step outside and take deep breath (life is dangerous...lol!). But spraying paint inside a confined space is a bit riskier, particularly if you make modeling a life long hobby. Just sayin'. Otherwise, I LOVE your work. You get after it and get it done, which is a talent (and it IS a talent too) I can only envy. Props...!!...and thanks. Your channel rocks!

You could almost heat the registers ringing up sales it is so realistic. I have to admit there are times I see your work and I look at my work and I'm just like I should just give up ain't no way I'm ever going to be that good so I don't know why I keep trying? but brilliant video again I really enjoyed it thanks for posting it.

    I have come to expect that your videos start with a shot outside so you have natural light and a real backdrop, making it look hyper realistic. This time, I was marvelling at how you managed to line up the shot so the building blended in with a real passing car on the road behind the model. Then I realised that the car driving by was part of the diorama. Awesome shot. I honestly thought the car was real for a moment.
