Capturing MAGIC in mini DIORAMA | making mini cloche curiosities

#craft #curiosity #diorama
Mini dioramas under glass! These diorama could be made for DnD, Warhammer 40K, Malifaux, or just anything you'd like. With Halloween coming up I thought it would be cool to make a few spooky ones and they came out great! I highly recommend trying out this quick snack-sized crafting project and I would love to see anything you create. Tag me on Instagram or Facebook if you make one!

Between the bottles of glistening potions and the tomes of ancient and forbidden knowledge that filled the shelfs of the crooked tower, small class cloches stood displaying moments frozen in time from the mundane to the extraordinary, from a grave to the depths of the ocean to other plains of existence all could be found. They hand not yet found the mage that called this tower home but they dearly hoped that they would not end up as part of the mages collection. Great work

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thank you! This is exactly what I imagined while making these! A curio cabinet with each representing a world or a story from another time 👍👍

[@marshawargo7238]

Watching this build makes me wish KZbin would alter the Like button as if it were a rating! Giving the viewer ability to decide how much the video was liked! I've often times wished I could click more than once! This was a 5👍review!(for me)

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thank you so much! 😊 I'm glad you liked it 😁👍

[@leenahusa1806]

Absolutely love the idea with the light coming through the broken floor boards. This is genius!

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thank you so much Leena! 😊

[@silversscratchbuiltproduct6277]

Sweet I love these creepy little dioramas...

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thanks silver! These bite sized crafts are the perfect evening project!

[@RoadWarrior_John]

These mini diorama were great, getting Evil Dead vibes from the zombie arm one.

[@BPCustomCreations]

For sure! Thank you 😎👍

[@tonysdiecastcustoms]

173 thumbs up brother and definitely a magical piece of art and enjoyed watching it Ben and appreciate you sharing it with us and have a wonderful weekend brother 👍👊💯😁

[@BPCustomCreations]

Cheers Tony! I appreciate you checking in out 👍

[@FHangya]

dude.... this is marvellous- Well done

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thanks Ivan 👍

[@CajunCraftastrophe]

The onion slicer is cool and a good idea. Now I'm on the lookout for one! The broken wood looks great and the tea light is super effective. Cthulhu + Paint job = Fantastic The sea floor with the anemone and starfish work perfectly. Nothing tacky there. Excellent work!

[@BPCustomCreations]

T-Nu! Pleased to have you round, buddy! Dr. Toys recently put out a video with tealights as well. They really are the hassle-free way to add some light and action to a scene.

[@schottys-diecast]

Incredible great builds on this small space! Great imagination an realisation 👍👍 🇱🇺

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thanks! Limitations always allow me to focus my designs 😁👍

[@geoffersongeofferies477]

Those builds really showcase your creativity, skill and execution. Very well done Ben. I wish I could smash that Like button three times.

[@BPCustomCreations]

Technically 3 times is okay, just don't hit it an even number of times 🤣 Thanks for coming along for the ride 👍

[@geoffersongeofferies477]

Very good point! I’m going to start doing that! Lol

[@korbendallas71]

Nice work. 👍🏻

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thanks Markymark!

[@emilnord]

Great work with those mini dioramas. Think they look really good. The zombie was my favourite, the light made it pop. It doesn't need to be more than that. Sometimes simple is so much more interesting.

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thank you! I absolutely agree about simplicity too!

[@olovskiPL]

Awesome mate! Love Your channel, hope to see it grow to boylei proportions :) I use Ikea cork coasters / mug top thingies for my mini dioramas, just enough space for a hot wheels car and a bit of road / scenery.

[@BPCustomCreations]

Cork coasters are the best! I can't fathom getting as popular as Boylei but I hope to see people continuing to enjoy what I create! Thanks for coming along for the ride 👍

[@neilcummings9939]

always love your vids. your creativity is amazing. always in awe of the cool stuff you make

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thanks Neil! Sometimes making simple small things is just as fun as the more technical ones!

[@neilcummings9939]

@@BPCustomCreations I agree

[@ladyathena59808]

I don't think the star was tacky; I think it actually looks really good considering it was really just a star and not a starfish. If you're ever looking for tiny little detail items like that, you can always look for nail decorations. They're tiny, often very detailed, and there are tons of different themes and styles.

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thanks for the comment! I like adding tiny details where I can and I've raided the nail section before but this reminded me I need to get back there!

[@BPCustomCreations]

I definitely do 👍

[@MapleLeafCustoms]

Fantastic work, Ben! I love them all, but I think the illuminated zombie arm gave me the most chills. I really like the cloche idea (and I like to sound pretentious). First time I've heard of your Patreon plan. I signed up instantly to support your amazing level of creativity. I'm a fan! Greetings from Switzerland - Andrew 🍁

[@BPCustomCreations]

I can't thank you enough for the support! 🙏 It took me a while to announce it in a video because I hate asking people for anything 🤣 My favorite changes depending on the day and time but they're all so fun! Hope you're having a great weekend!

[@rallaa941]

Astounding work, as always, BP. I always really like seeing people do stuff with those LED tealights. Your videos are inspiring for someone like me because you're just a guy with a camera and a crafts bin, putting in the time for some awesome outcomes. Now if only I could get off my butt watching youtube and try this stuff myself. Hah!

[@BPCustomCreations]

Thank you! I love working with whatever is on hand and seeing what I can do. KZbin is great inspiration but I totally understand it's trapping abilities 🤣

[@xojeanxo]

You're like a sleight-of-hand-maker-of-terrifyingly-tiny-creations magician 🎩❣️ So impressed, sir 🤩🤩🤩

[@gameyybuilds]

Nice job Ben, these are super cool, would've loved to see the process of the fence & skull one as well!

[@BPCustomCreations]

That would have been a welcome addition to the video but I just kind of made it while messing around and didn't video any of it 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@bigbrawler3080]

"Crafting Space". You and I have very different organization. But you're doing great bud. Love these. Have you thought of using thin Extruded Polystyrene for wood? It might be more work but it allows better sculpting.

[@BPCustomCreations]

🤣🤣 What's organization?

[@BPCustomCreations]

I've used XPS before but I prefer wood for wood. It's hard to get fine detail with foam that still holds a defined edge

[@RisingApe]

Great video, the squid in particular was Kraken!

[@BPCustomCreations]

🤣 Very nice!

[@geeklabz]

Love these!
