Hogwarts at Christmas! (Mini Diorama)

Happy Christmas, everyone! In this video, I'll show you how I made this awesome little Hogwarts in the snow diorama for my wife's Christmas gift. I also used a few techniques from @Boylei that made for a great effect, so big thanks for that. This piece was really a lot of fun to put together and I hope you all enjoy watching!
I also had a chance to test out a new airbrush that was sent to me from the Neoeoc team, which you can check out here. neoeco-airbrush.com/?rs_ref=3...
and I used a few 3D printed parts on this diorama, which you can also find here.

Great video, man! That's a great Christmas gift! Thanks for the shoutout and the reminder not to eat terrain paste!

[@CTDioramas]

Thanks, man. It's just a shame it looks so tasty!

[@Blitz9H]

Creamy goodness!!

[@DIYDollhouse84]

💕💕

[@mayankdate]

This is gorgeous! It would be cool to see you make a mini series with Hogwarts in every season. Then you'd have a seasonal decorative piece all year round!

[@CTDioramas]

That's a great idea!

[@debbralehrman5957]

What a very nice thing to do for your wife.. You did a delightful piece of work. Hope your wife loved it.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎉🎊🎉🎊

[@CTDioramas]

Safe to say, it's her new favourite thing 😁

[@RedCaio]

I've always wanted a Hogwarts for my desk. one day...

[@chaoskitteh]

Why am I crying? This is such a thoughtful and beautiful gift!

[@CTDioramas]

Glad you liked it!

[@simonreynolds1518]

That turned out beautifully so much detail came out with your prefect paint job, very impressive, I'm sure your Wife will love it, hope you both have a great Christmas and thank you for all your videos this year, I for one an looking forward to your first 2024 build.

[@CTDioramas]

Thanks, Simon. I really appreciate all your support! Happy Christmas 🎄 hope you have a good one 👍

[@isfj1009]

Beautiful!

[@PKTCrafts]

Great build man! Almost impossible to not click that thumbnail. Now, you should make a castle diorama for yourself, I suggest Fortress Vader on Mustafar. Merry christmas!

[@CTDioramas]

Dude!......you need to chill...I need to make that like now 😅

[@PKTCrafts]

@@CTDioramas Looking forward to it! 🤘

[@Gainjey]

CLEAN resin pour! Sweet video man, sub'd

[@CTDioramas]

🙏🙏

[@f75gunslinger]

Looks great ! The one thing that may have been fun would have been to add the " Womping Willow " somewhere on the grounds . I'm not sure how far from the school the Willow really was however .

[@CTDioramas]

I did think about adding it, but I figured it wouldn't be too obvious when it was covered in snow.....maybe I could do a dedicated womping willow piece someday 🤔

[@f75gunslinger]

​@@CTDioramasFrom the book and the movies the Willow always shook the snow off , so it may have been more obvious with one clean tree ! 🤣

[@debbiebogart5742]

Beautiful! Now I’m kinda curious to see how you would approach some of the Biomes in Monster Hunter Rise like the Shrine Ruins.

[@CTDioramas]

That would be cool!

[@jakethomson531]

Oh it beautiful Director Krennic

[@noqualitydioramas]

Good work)

[@CTDioramas]

Thank you!

[@MiniatureMisfit]

Doooo it!

[@AbzuCrafts]

This is so helpful thank you!!! Would love to keep seeing more tutorials like this!🎉🎉

[@sybar]

Fantastic work amazing. Could I ask what you use as scenic cement, as can’t see it on your list of stuff used, cheers and keep creating fantastic builds I’m locked in now 😁

[@CTDioramas]

Thank you! I just added a link in the description 👍

[@freakshowfilmfestival3591]

No Hagrid's hut? EPIC FAIL. lol Looks splendirific.

[@peacharvest6160]

my cat came to sit with me and watched this video, he likes your voice and work apparently lol. when i paused it he wandered off but if i kept it on he stays!

[@CTDioramas]

I'm glad he approves 👍

[@justbake7239]

Merry nice although would have been cool to see how you would have gone about making the castle without printing it

[@chlo4496]

Best one so far👌🏻 have the best Christmas! Can’t wait to see what you make in the new year.. a forbidden forest with centaurs would be amazing *cough cough*

[@samgiacco7211]

Great job, looks awesome. Merry Christmas 🎅

[@camron8330]

That came out amazing! Awesome build 👍

[@CTDioramas]

Thanks 😁

[@Smileesamantha]

Great video! Sorry i didn’t see what 3-d printer you used linked in the description! Could you possible add a link?

[@CTDioramas]

Thank you! My printer is a few years old now, and it's a little hard to get hold of, but it's an elegoo Mars 2 Pro 👍

[@2CraftySeniors]

This is amazing! I'd be hard-pressed to choose between the Millennium Falcon and Hogwarts... so it's a good thing I don't have to. 🥰Have a very Happy Christmas and may 2024 bring you only good things.🥰

[@CTDioramas]

Thank you so much!

[@KarlJayce.]

Can you please make Castle from Disenchantment

[@misternobody321]

Lots of beautiful painting just to be covered by snow 😂 Yet I’m glad I stumbled across your channel. You got my sub

[@CTDioramas]

Hopefully, it will still look good when the snow melts 😁

[@natewoodford]

this is absolutely brilliant, holy fuck, gimme

[@BrianSmithgrumpygit]

Great video i only have 1 question can you print this with filament pinter.

[@CTDioramas]

You sure can!

[@BrianSmithgrumpygit]

Thank you for the quick response. That is great.@@CTDioramas

[@Dog0nWheels]

14:46 😂

[@CTDioramas]

I was tired OK......

[@user-fz8ry9ow6p]

Great work! But I was expecting you to create a castle from scratch, without using a printer. At least, this is what I usually see in dioramas

[@CTDioramas]

Maybe one day!

[@JNArthur13]

Very nice, indeed. Thanks for using my model. I love seeing what people have been doing with it, and your snow theme is a very nice variation.

[@CTDioramas]

Thank you! The model is fantastic. You did an amazing job with it 👏

[@sjejka1]

What was your wife’s reaction to it? Did she like it?

[@CTDioramas]

Yes! It's safe to say she loved it 😁

[@conspiracy_coffee_club]

Are you from Norfolk?

[@CTDioramas]

I'm not no....but i have done a lot of work in Norfolk!
