I think an abandoned surrealistic amusement park ride, such as a merry-go-round, would awesome in a dreamword setting
Dang. That’s beautiful, man! Well done.
I think you could make many different abandoned places in a series. For example, you make an abandoned restaurant but the backdoor to the kitchen would be one of these portal doors that leads into the next abandoned scene that could be an abandoned movie theater room and the emergency exit is another portal door and so on... I'm still amazed at how you don't have more subs, you're so talented!
I love what you do. Your channel is so underrated.
A mystical/enchanted forest could be an amazing addition to the dream world
The Smoke was such a nice touch! Amazing work!
This is next level!!
I need to make a book nook of this scene. It's so epic!
this gives me Suzume and stranger things vibes. Another stunning piece ✨
Your work is incredible and deeply inspiring
Wieder eine tolle Arbeit,mann möchte durch die Tür hindurch gehen. Du weisst die gute Technik einzusetzen.Wunderbar.🙂👍
I love every single one of your projects so far. Honestly I feel like you could make an abandoned vacuum cleaner look awesome 😂A few ideas I had while watching this: an abandoned outlet mall with an empty water fountain that turns out to be a bottomless pit; a swimming pool with a glowing door at the bottom of the deep end; a brand-new merry-go-round inside an abandoned amusement park (or a broken-down merry-go-round in the middle of a forest). Regardless of the next project though, I'm certain it's going to look awesome!
This is sooo cool. It reminds me of the anime film “Suzume”. The film features a lot of abandoned places in Japan. Great film, highly recommend.
Beautiful!!! Except for the shape of the door, it reminds me of that portal from Star Trek TOS City on the Edge of Forever. Thank you!
I love that even when you show us how you achieve certain effects, they lose none of their impact. You've got such a great eye for light and fantasy imagery.
I am very impressed with your amazing work👍❤
Those iFootage lights are amazing. I need to really need to upgrade to some decent lights. Adding the footsteps to the door is major cool! That sand cleanup must've been FUN! : ) The red light coming from the door is sick. The final shot looks great! Nice work, N!
I actually have a sleep paralysis dream I would love to see made miniature and might fit in well with your theme. A pretty normal bedroom with a bed positioned center on the right wall and the left wall three sets of sliding closet doors with the center one open. In the center closet is a tv playing static. In the center of the back wall is a fairly large window with heavy black velvet curtains pulled open on either end of the window. The curtains are melting upward onto the wall and onto the pitched ceiling. They then begin to drip from the ceiling over the bed but the drips start to form arms and long claw like fingers as if they’re reaching for the bed.
Amazing work! Have you ever made A dark circus scene?
Hands/claws as trees. Also horned figures as silhouettes.
Interesting process, especially the photography setup part :D
I think a set of chairs and a table for the dreamworld would be cool. But make them upside down
Love the Portal, how about an undersea Portal ? .perhaps as part of a sunken ship.
I have a reoccurring dream I'm in an abandoned library similar to the Lori Nix and Kathleen Gerber miniature. Love your videos.
THE BACKROOMS!!!
So dope, reminds me a lot of the first dark tower book - Great job on this one Nic!
you should do a silent hill one next, its your vibe
Very impressive setup and technology! I think of a dollie shot towards a half open door where you can already see a complete different world behind. The shot continues through the door leading to another door again with a completely different world seen through it. This dollie shot could go on and on in a seamingly non stop motion. I think that would be an awesome effect!
I can't say enough how much I admire your work Man!
Awesome!
I do not understand how you have not been hired by a major company. Your modeling techniques are great and your cinematography is better then some major movies and you do it with a small percentage of what they use. If this project was part of a movie, I would think that it was 1 to 1 and if I stepped into the doorway, i would be in another place.
dark tower. this is a direct visual from the dark tower series.
How about a wagon drawn horse? Nice little philosophy pun that could fit in with a surrealist setting.
impresionante
This is absolutely beautiful! Hey I just thought is it possible to film a person or persons, film one of these miniature worlds, and combine the two?!? I love the Narnia kind of theme.
An abandoned library that’s enchanted where the scene is created by the book the reader is reading. Then they could be led away and the library could “trap” another reader.
Looks so cool! Thank you for explaining in the video what you use for filming.
I wish I had a friend like u. Feel like it would be so interesting to hang with u
The lighting and esthetic of your work gets really out of hand really fast. From the realistic feeling of your abandoned series to this dream world you’re building I get stoked for every new expansion of the lore you’ve built. As far as a suggestion something with stairs and when you do that pan of light over top that shows the Passat of time is crazy. It would be super interesting if you could have light come up from underneath in contrast to over the top.
That's wonderful. It reminds me of the opening sequence of the classic 'Twilight Zone' TV show, and also a dream I once had about opening a very familiar door, only to find it opened on nowhere recognizable at all. Not a good dream to have. 😆😆😆 You do such great work. Thank you for sharing. Have you ever made a corridor like the one from the original Willy Wonka movie, that looks normal, but actually shrinks in size the further it goes? That really freaked me out as a kid - There's something oddly terrifying about it. There was a similar real world analog in the old Newgate Prison in London: the corridor from the 'Condemned' cell to the gallows, got narrower and narrower, so the condemned prisoner could not turn around and attempt escape. That's real nightmare fuel there.
the sand could be snow with those colors.
It has such an aesthetic look to it and it works so well, especially with your new toys 😁 I love seeing the different techniques, both in diorama and filmmaking, as your passion for it really sells the illusions. I am curious though, as a diorama and sculpture maker, I want to do basic filming with my smartphone to make them more effective, but are there any other tips you could give besides your previous video?

Really cool stuff. so much love for details. Are you still happy with the Axibo? Did they fix the stutter bug you had when it started moving? The Kessler ones are like 8k and i was looking for something similar. I hesitate since the company and the product is still young and Kessler of Syrp have options that seem easier to use. Are you gonna make an update review? Ok i'm done now (: Keep it up!

They have a big update coming in a few days that will be adding a TON of stuff. I am very happy with it! Not positive about that stutter as I don’t usually use the slider at that speed, so I haven’t seen it happen since. I’ll definitely be showing it more in future videos. For the price it is insane and there are more beginner friendly methods of controlling it! My discount code is still active if you end up checking it out.

@@AbandonedMiniatures thanks for the reply. Seems very reasonably priced for what you get. Looking forward to seeing more of it in the future (:
What type of fog machine do you use? Thanks in advance.
Staircases into nowhere. Flooded human spaces are very dreamlike, but to get that to look good at scale you’d probably have to use resin, and your work always has movement, so ?? But weathered wooden grand staircases, something outside that should be inside, or concrete/stone steps like the famous EXORCIST alleyway in Georgetown.
Do you do comissions for book covers? If so id like to hire you

For this it was projected from behind. Not ideal, but all I could do with my current setup. Hopefully that’ll change soon!

Nice, but why 3D print everything as you are a talented artist ...?
This scene was not as convincing as your other work. A 10 minute light commercial.
Your videos have become mainly adverts for the lights etc. most of us aren’t cinematographers and unable to afford such luxuries. Most of us have a lot smaller budget, and videos we can all do with less expensive equipment would be great. I’m finding myself fast forwarding past the technical equipment which is a shame.
You are very talented for sure. That's why I find 3D printed everything a little boring because it takes zero talent to download and print a tree. Even our art is becoming cookie cutter. I don't know, maybe it makes me a little sad.

I disagree. I think it's a tool to help in the art just as paint does. I wouldn't expect people to make their own paint. I could get a 3D printed tree too but would it look good? Certainly not! lol It's what you make with it that counts and it still requires a lot of talent.
