How to Make Realistic Sky, Lasers, and Explosions in Your Star Wars Dioramas

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

#StarWars #Diorama #Mandalorian
This week I decided to revisit the last season of The Mandalorian. I was inspired by the dogfight between the Razor Crest and the TIE fighter at the end of episode 4, The Siege.

    Good tips on the GodHands, they are an incredible tool. It's a good thing I'm still only on my first pair and never accidentally broke them on something non-plastic and then replaced them with a second pair in a subsequent video without anyone noticing.

    I have some as well, but I found the fact that only one blade is a cutting edge to be frustrating. While it does cut cleaner than my nice Tamiya cutters, I find them less frustrating to cut with. Means more cleanup work, but a nano-etch glass file can get that nice perfect surface back.

    Everyone's saying it but it really is jaw-dropping how good this is - simple (in terms of the elements being background, ship, laser, and explosion) yet highly effective! Looks great with the light off, then once you turn it on a switch is flipped in your brain and it suddenly thinks it's looking at a still frame from the show.
