"Gone Fishing" - Epoxy Resin Water Diorama

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

My friends, it's again one of those nice moments when you're left with a few parts from a previous project, and it's just enough to create another small yet exciting diorama. This time featuring a blown-off turret sitting in a forest, submerged in water!

    Now You need to make a matching vignette where the hull without the turret sits in the woods and if You don't want to do the inside of the tank then put a fallen tree on it or make the tank overgrown with plants.

    Excellent Diorama. I don't know if anyone has mentioned it here but if you put a couple of drops of dish soap in your bottle of diluted PVA it should break the surface tension and soak in, saving you the trouble of using IPA. That's what I've always done and it works for me. Keep the videos coming.

My last build required me to cast numerous small parts using silicone molds and epoxy , half of them never cured right ! Out of frustration I decided to pour 3D print resin into the molds , and leave them out in the sun Parts where fully cured in 5 minutes , with no air bubbles

    What I absolutely love in your videos is that models, effects and dioramas/vignettes that were on an impossible level of skill for me are decomposed and explained so well, that it becomes very clear how this and that should be done, and very easy to do. The rest is the matter of 'technical' skills. And my models that were made after I found your channel are a great confirmation of that :)

    By far my favorite project you’ve done was the “cats and dogs” jagdpanther build. I know it was a long time ago now but it really shows the immense amount of detail you put into your builds. I’m not a modeler myself but i watch a lot of modeling channels and so far I haven’t seen anyone use a real life example of the power lines outside of their house for a model. I love your content and I’ve been watching for a while just thought I should comment this to hopefully give your day a boost. 💕

    My friend, one thing that always help me. When I got to the liquid resin was this. After about 4 to 6 minutes of mixing. Then I always added the color to make it cloudy. I never add the color in the beginning. Every single time I did it messed it up. So now I just mix the hardener and the resin together first. Be careful with color my friend. You can always put more color in but you can never take out too much color. I hope that helped you with the clear resin. I also buy my clear risen from a hardware store. It seems to work better the other type. We buy for models and diagrams..

    If the figures are both 1/35 scale but there is a little size difference, that shouldn't be a problem; military units are not sorted by height and width. One of the units I was in, the shortest guy was 5'5" and the tallest was a whopping 6'8". He had a LOT of trouble in our M2 BFV. So a little height difference can only add to the realism. But that's just my opinion. Beautiful build, but I've been watching you for years and I don't ever remember seeing you do a bad one. Cheers, and enjoy your vacation!
