The fairies at the bottom of my garden are 2 inches tall, but sprout a little after a summer rain shower.

[@creativecuts7803]

Ahh yes the summer rain. Adds a bit of spring to all our steps. 👍

[@Tomy_Yon]

I love the snail. Your eye for composition is flawless 👍

[@creativecuts7803]

👍👍👍

[@MrCros1970]

Ive always looked at working smarter not harder, when I'm shopping I see so many things and especially shapes for my dioramas, love your work ....

[@creativecuts7803]

It's amazing once you really start building in miniature, the world around you takes on a completely different shape. What was once a boring trip to the supermarket, now becomes a fun material hunting trip haha

[@ChickensTabletopCrafting]

Really cool. Nice Work

[@creativecuts7803]

[@marktroncoso6125]

Perfection!!!

Why not be magical sometimes! Gorgeous fairy setting 🌻🌺🌸🙏

[@queenbee2999]

Very soothing to watch ur channel helps me to relaxs while i have a pannic attack i find ur channel helps to calm it down

[@creativecuts7803]

Thank you and you are very welcome. I'm glad my videos help.

[@stephenspackman5573]

The fireflies are surprisingly effective. But I always love these green + magic ones :).

[@creativecuts7803]

Thanks man. Many of my projects start with me wanting to realise a very simple idea and just satisfying my itch to see what it could look like. The fireflies were very much part of such an experiment. But its given me lots more inspiration for how to use these mini leds in the future. Thanks for watching 👍

[@CampaignTerrain]

Excellent build. Most enchanting. Almost 1:1, even 2:1. Enjoyed this

[@creativecuts7803]

Yeah it really made me rethink what is possible when it comes to scale and not to only think of the world in 32mm haha. Thanks for watching

[@wendyvoye3110]

Found this by accident watching an ASMR video and someone recommended this in the comments! I'm addicted! 💕

[@creativecuts7803]

Welcome and thanks for watching 👍

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Great job on the diorama. Maybe if you run the wires from the LEDS down from the top of the mushrooms it would be a bit easier and paint them black or to match the background?

[@creativecuts7803]

Yeah I thought of a few different ways. But I wanted a nice spread of leds and not too close to the figure. I thought about painting the wires green or black to try to blend them a bit. But thought it might look too obvious. I will never know but in order to finish a project you need to make decisions and sometimes they may be wrong but that's OK haha.

[@cerisekappes580]

Changing to this scale was an awesome idea and you did a beautiful job!!!

[@creativecuts7803]

Thank you 👍 bit of fun haha

[@cerisekappes580]

@@creativecuts7803 you are welcome! Extra bonus that it was fun! 😊

[@rechellethackray]

Absolutely loved this one!!! Anything whimsical/nature or nature based I would love to see more of. You absolutely nailed this one, its gorgeous and has given me inspiration to create my own. Would have loved to have seen more detailed instructions on how you connected all the led lights. Seriously a beautifully made project! 😊😊

[@creativecuts7803]

Thank you. Very kind of you to say. I will do a video soon where I go through all the electrics and how I wire it all together in a future video. This was very much an experiment but no I know my method works I will share it in more detail. Lots more to come 👍

[@osimandus]

A great build, reaching into the world of whimsy.

[@bobt3374]

Well thought out & Magically brought together.

[@creativecuts7803]

Thank you Sir Bob 👍 🙏

[@WillinrowArts]

Just discovered your channel. Very cool project, love all the different mediums you used.

[@scottmclean4237]

Great work, your Chanel is one of my favourite channels, quality workmanship and unnecessary rubbish Another Chanel I love is epic up cycling, he also is a master at what he does , your work is also epic my friend

[@creativecuts7803]

Nice one brother, this one was a bit of fun but really pleased with the result and learned a lot

[@jeremygriffin620]

Just amazing, I listened more than I watched (I was building a computer) however your final product is gorgeous. Also, you editing and music is fantastic and thank you for the playlist. Classy!

[@creativecuts7803]

You are very welcome dude. Hope the CPU build went well and glad I could keep you company

[@Craftlngo]

His voice has something calming on it that makes it so much more intriguing

[@ModeliteDiorama]

This so cool! When I clicked the video, I did not expect that I would like this idea so much :)

[@creativecuts7803]

Thank you!! Much appreciated. Sometimes strange rabbit holes lead to wonderful things

[@zombiedad]

Wonderfull! If you are worried about organic material in dirt but want to keep it looking natural spray it with isopropyl alcohol.

[@creativecuts7803]

Haha I spray all the loose material with ipa before applying pva to seal it so kills two birds with one stone

[@zombiedad]

Just wonderful

[@creativecuts7803]

👍👍👍

[@e-l-t2279]

Beautiful! I love what you did. Explaining all the way through how you approached things as usual. Awesome video sir!

[@creativecuts7803]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!!

[@Fanroghscorner]

Absolutely lovely build 😊

[@creativecuts7803]

Haha great minds think alike. I wanted to do a snail trail and thought of a vool way of doing it with hot glue and gloss varnish. But the hollow log I put the snail on was too short to show it properly. Sure I could have put the trail in a different spot but it felt weird somehow and I talked myself out of it. I had an idea for a spiderweb too but the ideas keep coming which only inspires me to build more haha. Thanks for watching

[@Fanroghscorner]

@@creativecuts7803 ahh yeah it was just something I noticed and not everything needs to be realistic but I default to going for realisme 😊

[@diecastmodelsnbeyond6354]

What paint you use to bring more color up to the soil?

[@creativecuts7803]

I pretty mich always use acrylic paints in my models. High quality paints like vallejo or pro acryl are my favourites. But I will often paint with transparent paint to act as a filter more than solid colour. This allows the natural variation to show through too

[@dubuyajay9964]

What are these rules that you broke?

[@creativecuts7803]

The rules of scale. Usually when you build a diorama you make something big very small. In this case I made something very small bigger.

[@marilyn5208]

What size fairy did you use?

[@creativecuts7803]

It's about 6 inches if she was standing. Found it as a garden ornament on amazon

[@marilyn5208]

Btw, there 2 comments below from randoms in German, advertising a 'dating' site. Better delete and block, my friend.

[@creativecuts7803]

Cheers! Will do

[@scottturner3831]

Broke all the rules? Clearly a click bait title. I saw no jaywalking and not one E before I accept after C.

[@creativecuts7803]

The rules of scale. Usually with dioramas you take something big and make it small. In this one I took something very small and made it big. Thanks for watching either way 👍

[@MVeminor7]

Thank you for getting back to Nature. Organic fantasy is the life we should follow. Best of luck on your journey. And thanks for sending us the postcards as you travel. See you again friend.

[@creativecuts7803]

This one was fun and essentially me working out a very basic idea and wanting to see what the results would be. The eternal curious search haha. On a completely different note - I know your favourite world is a LOTR setting - do you have a favourite scene?

[@MVeminor7]

@@creativecuts7803 It's quite flattering to see that you remember your subscribers' penchants. A particular scene that comes to mind is when the Fellowship visits Lothlorien. The place where platforms/dwellings are built up within the yawning branches of the Golden Mallorn trees. It evokes the glow of life amidst the majesty of nature's achievements. I'm a 'book' guy (vs movies) and my imagined image of this scene has always inspired me. Thank you again for the inquiry. You know I'm an avid watcher. I'm looking forward to your next postcard. LOL
