I cover several DIY techniques for creating the Ultimate, Realistic Diorama. You can apply these techniques to anything that you're working on, such as dioramas, scale models, model railway scenery, model railroad layouts, wargaming terrain, warhammer 40k, d&d scenery, tabeltop gaming, action figure displays, dollhouse accessories, fantasy dioramas and whatever else comes to mind. I show you how to make a model house from scratch that looks hyper realistic, just using some miniature, strip basswood, balsa wood, and foam board you can buy from the hobby and crafts store! I take you though every step of building a winter log cabin, making logs from balsa wood, making a roof structure and a rusty metal tin roof from styrene plastic sheets and strips, adding a miniature glass double hung windows, making a miniature brick or stone chimney from XPS foam, Painting and weathering everything, adding 3D chairs, windows, and and accessories, and adding model railway scenery like dirt, terrain, ground cover, rocks, snow and much more!
