We wanted to see how much time it actually takes to build a diorama from scratch, so we decided to challenge ourselves by building the same fantasy diorama spending 1 hour, 10 hours and 100 hours on each one! Turns out, it's a pretty huge difference between them!

    That's a great idea. In addition I'd also restrict the allowed tools in some way. Doesn't seem fair to use expensive things like a 3D printer for a cheap project, even if the supplies are cheap. And just including the tool prices inside the budget also doesn't seem right, especially for basic things most people have anyways like a drill.

    I like how the 1 hour house almost looks like a dilapidated shack, the 10 hour house looks like a humble farmer's home, and the 100 hour house is the town tavern. You could put all 3 together a build a story of a village. I like them all!

    Honestly for an hour, the little house is really impressive! The textures look really good to me. But of course they just get better and better. The ten hour is really nice, cozy, also great textures and I really like the paint job. But the 100 hour house is STUNNING. I love the shape of it, and the miniatures bring a lot of life to it. So many details packed into that thing. The little lamps might be my favorite, so cute.

    Not sure if you're looking for genuine tips, but usually a lower heat setting will help with those problems! You'll get less working time, but it will be much more "instant" and a bit less stringy (although there definitely is some level of technique to get rid of strings completely. It's a similar motion to the "twist and pull" method of preventing paint/juice drip)

That’s why I also appreciated that Martina started putting the clock in her video so you can see how much damn time everything actually takes! KZread vids tend to give us an idealized view of the creation process lol. Glad she shows us all the bumps in the road and time it takes to make these amazing projects. (Also btw it’s gauging!

    Honestly, they all look apart of the same village. As we've seen replicated throughout films, the ideal village would have included all 3 for 3 different classes. The 1hr is where the "poor" people would live on the outskirts of town away from society; those who work their butts off with next to no pay and seen as blight on society- possibly even the town drunk. The 10 hr would be in the actual village or extremely close to it along a well travelled path. It's where people would live in the back or upstairs while the majority of the structure was a shop of some kind: all the towns people enjoy their company and they help everyone - even the town drunk. The 100 hr is the mayors home, he can only afford such opulence because he steals from everyone "below" him but he boosts about his home as if he's earned it. Watching you sparks my desire to get crafting! I love it, be proud of all 3. You've built yourself a village!!

I am currently building 10 book-themed dioramas for our local school libraries, and am limiting myself to about 20 hrs per diorama to finish on time. I constantly feel the urge to put just a "little" more time to add all of the little details that I love, but have to stay disciplined and content with the 20 hr level of detail that time allows. All 3 of your builds are SO great - and those little resin printed lanterns are ridiculously cute and genius. :) Thanks for posting!

The whole point of the three-part timed art challenges is to go from longest to shortest, trying to produce the same end product with shorter and shorter time. She completely took the CHALLENGE out of it, other than just trying to see how much she can build in each amount of time! While that still makes for a good video in some way, it is not the point of this type of challenge. I love all she does, regardless!

    For a super fast basecoat, you could use spray paint + fat cap (or chisel/calligraphy cap). The '94' spray cans by MTN (Montana Colors) are low pressure - VERY controllable - and with a fat cap on it, it's basically an airbrush... that requires 1min shaking to prep, and that dries in 2 mins. Within 10 mins, you can cover everything in 3 super thin layers and have it dry so you can move on to hand painting :) The 94 range has like 216 (I believe more now, actually) super nice matt colors, including some fluorescents, AND... (More importantly).. Some half transparant colors: "shadow black", "shadow grey" and "air white". With those you can very easily 'mist' some highlights on your piece, or add some depth. The 94 range is something like nitro-acrylic paint. They also have a range of matt water based spray paints (that you can use indoors - very much aimed at artists) Oh, and they have some cool 'texture paints'... Definitely worth checking out, I think. Takes some practise, but you can do very fine work with those spray cans (and all the colors are amazing.. There's like 24 different grey colors - light, dark, warm, cold, etc)

    There´s this 80/20 therory that says: When working on any kind of project, you complete about 80% of the work in about 20% of the time. The longer you work on a project, the more details are goonna be included but the effort increases drastically. I think that really makes a lot of sense here; as you said, the 10 hour one looks still very good, but I also think, that in your case, the time on the 100 hour one was reeeeally well spent. Your creations always impress me a lot and every diorama was incredibly good for the time you took to make it!

    The 10 hour house looks really good. 👌 100 hours is amazing. 100 hours is a lot of time, but if I worked on a house that long it would still probably look like the 1 hour one and I would be very happy.

    Honestly if a channel pushes content every day it soon goes from watching later, to skipping this one, to not watching any of them any more. Once, maybe twice a week is fine. I don't actually have a clue how long is between Nerdforge ones. But I'd rather see good content from people who enjoy making it. That being said, the youtube algorithm is a bitch. People pushing themselves for daily content probably don't have patreon or something.

And it also shows how we sometimes overestimate our abilities to do smth in a limited amount of time, that's why you should plan stuff. Overall, all 3 houses look amazing!

    When Bjorn first reached the meadow, he was struck by the beauty of the surrounding lands as well as the obvious richness of the soil. He packed up his family, and they moved there the next year. Living at first in a large tent, Bjorn and his three strong sons quickly felled some trees and soon had a small but cozy wooden structure that helped the family live through the next winter. At first pale in color, the small house soon turned black from the pitch that was used to weatherproof the still-porous fresh wood used in its construction. After a few years, the family continued to grow in both numbers and wealth, and Bjorn was proud to sit at the head of the table in the wood-framed house his grandchildren had helped construct, where he himself had placed the last stones in the chimney. The small black house was just a few meters away, and the family kept it in good repair and used it as a storehouse and barn. As time passed, the rich earth (tilled by plows kept in the small black shed) produced bumper crop after bumper crop, providing nourishment for the many dozens of family members as well as the rest of the small village that had begun to form around their land. Just two generations after Bjorn's body had been buried beneath the earth he had so loved, the family was powerful and wealthy enough to have a much larger home built, this time mostly from stone. The edifice towered over the nearby structures and further added to the family wealth with the highly successful ale-house on its ground floor....while the smaller wood-frame house continued to be used by one branch of Bjorn's descendants (by this time many had moved away in search of new fortunes or to help grow the family's trading empire) as a traditional gift from the family to the eldest son of each generation upon his marriage. All through the years, the family remembered their roots, and the small black shed that had been their first toehold on the land was kept in good repair, serving both as a reminder of their humble roots and as a safe place to store sacks of grain and jugs of wine for the winter.
