An Amazing Waterfall with a Secret - Realistic Scenery Vol.26

[@rwh09384abc]

These dead leaves and bark are to simulate dead leaves and bark, this is my favorite line of this video!

[@colisanpixel]

"Mmm yes. The floor is made of floor" XD

[@nekrataali]

"Why hasn't Luke posted a new video?" "So anyway, I made over 100 stalagmites and then glued them in place to make this as realistic as possible."

[@RetroRoboland]

You wait, the next one will have little fish swimming in the water and driftwood gloating in the river. Luke’s dioramas really are next level

[@51WCDodge]

Most of us are told 'Don't go out because of Covid! Luke's answer 'No worry, I'll build my own outdoors'. You Sir are an Artist.

[@BoulderCreekRailroad]

lol... that's exactly what I'm doing 😄

[@jasonesler2716]

Totally feel the same! My imagination takes me in that perfect colored pool! 👍🏻

[@Varangian_af_Scaniae]

"Most of us are told 'Don't go out'" Maybe it's time for you to push back against your authoritarian leadership. I'm an adult and no corrupt politician will tell me what to do.

[@51WCDodge]

@@Varangian_af_Scaniae I was given official 'advice'. As I am at high risk as I'm on immunosuppresants, I talked to the specaialist team who look after me and made my choices. I'm totally against Authoratarian Leadaership, I was born and brought up somewhere that subject to Nazi Occupation. Yes I have my RIGHTS! I also have a responsonbility to others NOT to put them at risk. Which means I cannot do exactaly what I want.

[@RetroRoboland]

And not just an artist, an entertainer...

[@Reijack]

Never mind the realistic waterfall and cave system, Luke's bottle flipping skills are what keep me coming back

[@willtreasure7029]

Obviously the model takes a huge amount of time, but then you go and do all this extra stuff on top like bottle flips and have 3D text that's perspective tracked and blurs realistically when it's obscured by plastic tubs... Just because you can. That's not even to mention the work that filming and editing takes. It's just mind-blowing how much work goes into this! Amazing 👍

[@RetroRoboland]

Well you just know he gets the bottle flip first time. Sounds like you REALLY watch these vids dude!

[@tziirkq]

The tracking has gotten amazing, the amount of work that goes into making the videos, never mind the models themselves, is just mind blowing.

[@HighEyeWorkshop]

Beautiful job. Always happy to watch you work. I admire your patience and ambition with each piece. Then again, I'd be happy enough watching you create whatever you wanted to create - be it an outhouse or a mountain.

[@BoulderCreekRailroad]

lol... thanks heaps Merick, an outhouse sounds fun... I'd have to include sound effects 😄 Likewise, I thoroughly enjoy watching your awesome projects as well 😉

[@celestialfox6072]

I love you both 😊

[@claireholcombe5984]

Well said

[@kestag2110]

Love watching you both. You’ve given me wonderful ideas for my project.

[@eggyfried1364]

@@BoulderCreekRailroad I'm very interested in making one of these but I have 2 questions...(one is kinda a favor). 1# is it ok to give me a list of what I need to build the diorama and as well the links? 2# is this project hard? you can send question 1 at my gmail: [e-mail]

[@6root91]

I feel like that flame-less soldering torch is your new favourite toy.

[@GamingMuchTerry]

It doesn't matter who you are - being able to watch someone create something from nothing in detailed steps is inspiring, relaxing and satisfying. Thanks for another impressive build Luke.

[@RetroRoboland]

Well not nothing. Out of a heap of stuff and with a lot of skill. But agree, an amazing transformation.

[@yrunaked4]

after all the years of modeling, Lukes back yard has to be full of random holes from harvesting dirt, lol

[@claireholcombe5984]

Ya 😂😂😂

[@seeing8spots]

I'm glad I'm not the only one that's thought this 😂

[@RobinFowler1982]

You think he has a backyard left after removing all that gravel

[@pontiusbunny]

He now has a model of a garden where his garden used to be

[@wonderboy9999]

Ye, looks like rhyders house

[@BoulderCreekRailroad]

He’s back... Wally couldn’t resist checking out what I was doing. I’ll give you a clue 🔍 He is in the video 5 times 😉... I know it’s not much of a clue, ok here’s a better one... ‘Realistic Scenery Vol.23’. Having trouble finding Wally? You'll find the answers here: www.bouldercreekrailroad.com/find-me-challenge.html 😃

[@kerebharrison459]

Hello, I've been really inspired by your content because it reminds me of wanting to build dioramas when I was younger. I am planning on building my own diorama loosely based on your Alaskan Wilderness diorama. Because I am just trying out making dioramas I don't want to spend a huge amount of money or buy lots of an item that I may not use in the future. One of my main challenges is finding a resin I could use for deeper casts that I don't have to purchase in bulk. Do you know any products that I could use? Thanks so much. :)

[@mikebennett938]

It's about time!!! Thank you!! :D

[@DontAskWhyItsJustCuz]

Amazing like always... I needed this... But a month is too long... Lol... #Salute #StayBlessd #DontAskWhyItsJustCuz

[@Thirster]

Have you thought about doing a similar piece based on piccaninny ponds?

[@matty4z]

5:35 that lil easter egg nice

[@TheBonsaiZone]

I love both Kathy's and your videos!!! Funny how you both have gotten away from the railroad side of modeling and are more into the creative scenes!

[@TheOriginalBadger]

I was just thinking the exact same thing! Not a complaint though....its a joy just watching him work!

[@DB--lv6tt]

Boulder creek *railroad* ! Even if nobody else will complain about... I'll do. What a pity!

[@RetroRoboland]

@@DB--lv6tt well there’s a creek, there’s a Boulder and the railway is just over the other hill. Lol

[@patrickschardt7724]

I’m new to this channel. I’ve seen multiple people mention Kathy. Is Kathy Miller the person people are talking about for another diorama channel?

[@TheBonsaiZone]

@@patrickschardt7724 Kathy Millett.

[@MrPsychopathYT]

Who here never builds dioramas but just enjoys watching these videos?

[@l1277]

I don't have the money or space (or skill, tbh) so this is a great way of living vicariously!

[@58Kym]

I have built one diorama that fit into a wide wine glass, 5 yrs ago. That’s it but I watch Kathy, Luke, Mile High and a few others religiously.

[@MrPsychopathYT]

[@patflat456]

I don't even do modeling and I couldn't wait for your next video. Watching a master at work bringing new worlds to life is the pinnacle of entertainment for me. Good to see you back dude!

[@dxagonwrld4630]

I love doing modeling even though I’ve never actually completed one

[@nickrogers3111]

Flashlight panning the cave is a great shot, the way the light cast shadows on the ceiling and reflects off the water looks amazing 👏

[@13thMaiden]

That cave is GORGEOUS!!! Miniature caves, I could see that as just displays to focus on as a series.

[@mooglesmodelrailways]

Excellent diorama and tutorial Lake. Thank you for posting. And you're right about Kathy Millett, I'm always learning from her videos even after 30 years of modelling!

[@RedmarKerkhof]

The new Caves & Cliffs update is looking good.

[@figrollin]

So nice of you to give Kathy a call out! What a great modeler she is! I'm also a fan of Marklin of Sweden - perhaps he could get the same treatment! In fact, he just recently did some sea spray with some aquarium filter which is a product that I think surpasses the pillow policy fibre!

[@konradbak]

Each movie proves how unlimited amounts of talent are in you! Congratulations!

[@dodgeguyz]

Every time I see an amazing diorama I think there’s no way you can top it. Then you go and release a video like this!!!!! Amazing work!

[@madnessbydesign1415]

I just worked 7 days straight (10-12 hour days). I am exhausted, and can barely keep my eyes open.. Wha - A new Luke Towan video? Half an hour long? Should I wait? No. Let what must be done, be done... Always worth it! I also love the community shout-outs. Well done, Sir. Well done... :)

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Wonderful as always, Luke! We're excited to see your future videos, too. :)

[@jdinnen1]

At long last! Been looking forward to this!

[@BoulderCreekRailroad]

You're the gold standard Luke! I appreciate the attention to detail and bits of humor. I create theme park models for the industry and collectors and my techniques have improved greatly thanks to your channel.

[@RonsTrainsNThings]

Luke, you just keep coming up with fantastic new scenes and techniques to model them. Thanks again for sharing. 👍👍

[@KathyMillatt]

Luke, I’ve been so looking forward to this video and it was worth the wait! Thanks so much for the shout out too.

[@BoulderCreekRailroad]

No worries Kathy, you're videos are amazing so it's my pleasure to be able to share them around as well 😃 Keep up the amazing work!

[@KathyMillatt]

Thanks Luke.

Hello Luke. Another beautiful diorama. The idea of ​​spraying out the wash is great, I'll remember that. Thanks and regards - Tino

[@McHeisenburger]

This channel is my therapy.

[@TATICMOOR]

The whole build is a piece of art, and I can't believe my eyes by the time you have finished. When I see the results of the work you have put into your models. It is no wonder you get loads of verbal accolades of admiration in your comments per video you post up. Talking of Kathy, I would like to see you both work on a piece together and see how you would each handle the area's to be worked on. Now that would be a challenge worth watching.

[@warailawildrunner5300]

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but it's great to see you upload. I for one was getting worried that covid was impacting on you. Wish you luck and again, I wish I was a tenth as talented

[@RetroRoboland]

I agree, I was checking from about four weeks since the last upload. Worth the wait!

[@jocelynmills3401]

i’ve been keeping up w your videos for about two or three years now and religiously use them to fall asleep to, it’s so relaxing

[@tenalaurenshepard8568]

I just stopped what I was doing so fast so that I could watch this.

[@BoulderCreekRailroad]

lol... I hope it wasn't something important 😄

[@notmyrealname6168]

I took a break from my riveting boredom...

[@jovishark]

im going back and watching the whole video catalogue to calm me down at night, and this one really got my attention. what a gorgeous cave. what a great way to excise the danger of spelunking! theres nothing scarier to me than a deep underwater cave, but the way you captured them here makes them seem so much more mystical and beautiful. youre a wonder with that resin!

[@SonsOfLorgar]

Tbh, the under water tunnel entrance to that cave would be an absolute death trap IRL

[@DIYhobby]

Beautiful work, it's super inspiring😉👍

[@fancreper]

The timing of this video is perfect! Not long ago I was searching for cave dioramas and didn't find what I wanted. This video is exactly what I was looking for and I am so happy you made it! I hope one day you make an ancient Egyptian tomb diorama, similar to the mineshaft one. I think it would look amazing in your style.

[@RetroRoboland]

Egyptian tomb would be good. I reckon a river in really bad flood would be interesting too

[@ModelingSteelinHO]

Luke,thank you for sharing not only your imagination but your fantastic modelling.

[@NorthoftheBorder]

The real reason we haven't seen a video in a while is because it took you this long to get the shot of the paint landing in the airbrush cup, isn't it?

[@RetroRoboland]

Missed that. Want to see that. What is the time code?

[@Me-vq5yg]

Im so glad luke has the patience for this, i can watch his videos instead of struggling with it myself

[@colinmansell3524]

Easy. It's alright if you are THE Master builder. Another fantastic build, thank you Luke.

[@lucas.demello]

When the production value is this big, being less than 30 minutes is actually a criminal offense. You're fined with making more.
