Seriously cool build. I'm just starting my journey of building dioramas. Your videos give me inspiration and guidance.

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Glad to hear it! Good luck with your builds.

[@NScaleDystopia]

Another beautiful, well-explained, well-executed video. Stunning!

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! 😀

Incredible stuff, moving into more dioramas myself for Star Wars black series and legion, really enjoyed this. Subbed. Great work man

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! And that's a fun scale to work with-good luck with the builds.

[@danieldamiani3338]

Fantastic build!!

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! 😀

[@xGamermonkeyx]

Absolutely gorgeous! Love your work top to bottom! With the windmill, did you consider using a fine threadcount but worn fabric glued onto the fan to give it the look of a cloth sheathed windmill? Something fine in threadcount but worn (say, tumbling it with those rocks of yours) could give it the effect of worn hessian, ripped and falling away from the blades.

[@berniedelaure6750]

Finally another builf

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Haha, thanks Bernie!

[@preekja]

First off, I love it. This semi artsy comic look is just amazing. Any ideas how you could make the interior useable?

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! Whenever I create interiors I like to separate the roof at the larger timber trim. Magnets can also be fitted in this section if needed.

[@davidsonfamily2930]

Beautiful work. I really like how you do wood texture w a wand; not sure if it's "realistic" but it's a strong aesthetic choice that I can fully get behind.

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! 😀

[@jordand1554]

Great work, would be interesting to see you incorporate a small motor to automate the rotors of the windmill. Greetings from Germany!

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thanks! And that's a fun idea!

[@wizardslab3143]

That looks great ! :)

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! 😀

[@berniedelaure6750]

Can you vuild a ruined house once

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Releasing tomorrow 🙂

[@monkey7218]

Fantastic build as usual :D At around 0:08 you show some minis on the windmill walkway, which line are they from? They look great!

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Those are 3D printed and from a company called Titanforge Miniatures. Thanks!

[@LorielStarkWinterfell]

First of all really awesome build! I wonder how well does those windmill... blades?... stay with only that small surface glue attached. my initial though is that there should be some toohpick or something similar inside the foam to support it more.

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! And I was considering that but ended up going without since the bonded area is quite strong. But yes, a toothpick or a pin would help if more durability is required. 🙂

[@leonardd.hilleyii7554]

Great build! Are the templates for this available for purchase?

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! And not yet. This build is popular, so I'll most likely formalize the plans and make them available.

[@leonardd.hilleyii7554]

@@OkayHobbyTime Look forward to getting them!

[@peter2989]

Another great video! How long did this take you, approximately?

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! I don't really keep track (I should), but I'd say 2 weeks of hobby session evenings to design the building in Adobe Illustrator, build, and paint.

[@l-yessie-l1468]

Please put a download link for the blueprint in your Video description, I would really live to rebuild your Terrain pieces! :)

[@OkayHobbyTime]

I'll eventually be releasing all of the most popular templates. Stay tuned!

[@l-yessie-l1468]

@@OkayHobbyTime thanks! i kinda figured out a layout myself, can I send it to you somewhere? (like Instagram..?)

[@OkayHobbyTime]

​@@l-yessie-l1468 Of course! Tag me in whatever you end up creating.

[@stevensherrell637]

Hi mate ! Can I ask where the miniatures are from please ?

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Hey! They're from Titan-forge's "Old City" monthly release (3D printed).

[@TerrainbyAaron]

What glue are you using for the XPS foam?

[@TerrainbyAaron]

As in brand of wood glue. Sorry typing without glasses on

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Hey, it's LePage wood glue, the express quick dry version.

[@TerrainbyAaron]

@@OkayHobbyTime thank you. I've never tried wood glue before so will look out for some.

[@bobosessbushcraftandsurviv4783]

What program do you make your templates in?

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Hey there, I use adobe illustrator. Mainly because that’s what I’m used to using.

[@brooke9192]

The production quality of your videos is great! How does the wood glue hold up with play?

[@OkayHobbyTime]

Thank you! Once dried, wood glue is extremely strong.
