[@72ve17]

you brought the past life into images so the people from today will imagine what the picture hold

[@michaelshea5622]

Whenever I need to relax doing a build, I put one of your videos up. The music for this one is amazing.

[@AquamentusZero]

I can only salute your patience.

[@EagleOneM1953]

Always a pleasure to see your dioramas come alive..... Even with 40 years experience in the scale model business I learn something new every time.... love your very realistic trees.... Keep up the good work and keep posting these videos...

[@alanmoffat4454]

THAT'S WORTH WATCHING AS NEAR PERFECTION JUST A LITTLE MORE DIRT AND DUST THANKYOU AGAIN 😊.

[@michaela3274]

Great looking log house and birch tree

[@BalovnevStudio]

Hello. Great job. Once upon a time, the German army passed through my great-grandmother's house in the village. It was a hard time ... Peace to the world!

[@alexchahnazaroff8627]

Sólo pasó? tuvo suerte tu bisabuela..

[@sonsuzevren61]

thanks for the beautiful and enlightening video for those who are curious about the model. it was a great work that reflected the spirit of the era.

[@christopherstaerck1112]

So glad you kept the faith with this one and followed your instincts. There is always one piece, one aspect, one detail in each of your projects that stand out for me, and I rarely mention it in a comment because I don’t wish to take away from the superb quality of the entire diorama. This time I feel compelled to call it out - the silver birch tree is simply amazing, and to see the process in the film a bonus. Once more, my congratulations and my gratitude for sharing so much of what you do. Thanks

[@grahammarkhorn]

Fantastic job......that silver birch is pretty epic, not an easy tree to model!

[@americanpatriot2422]

Another outstanding video and presentation.

Thanks......I reduced the size of the base and a door didn't work anymore 👍

[@nickbutler7935]

Hearty congratulations on another stunning piece of art. The Birch I would pick as my favourite singular element, well worth the time spent. The figures look good and will be investigated into when I have some spare time. Great work, keep up your inspiring efforts.

[@Miniaturdioramaku]

Woow perfect and neat way to make a diorama and a nice house and cool work and I like it! hello my miniature diorama friend 🇲🇨👃😊

Awesome, excellent build into such realistic diorama.. Many bodies are rewatched getting tips on just how or what used to accomplish task. Then chill, adult beverage to quench thirst, lol, rewatch uninterrupted from beginning to end.. perhaps a modelers version of “ movie time “? Never fail to amaze your craftsmanship.. thanks.🎶✌️🍺

Brilliant diorama . Love your outstanding work with the tree and the Russian house . Bravo !

[@HamilkarBarkasScaleModelling]

Dude, simply amazing work! I love how it ties all together and your "style" for the lack of a better word gives it life and a unique look. I am fairly confident that i would be able to recognize your work in a filled competition table at a model show :)

[@CWModelling]

Thanks Michael.....yes, I think we all have a unique 'style' and I'm pretty sure I could recognise yours as well👍

[@Barbarossamodels]

Excellent diorama…..at least I know where to come if I need a good gardener (if I had a garden😏). Great little scene, tree looks cool, details in the wooden house, figures suit perfectly. Great techniques to create this one - well done bud🙂👍

[@ScaleModelCraft]

WOW CW!! The tree is just magic, and using tweezers for your boards is a great idea!! I use my x-acto and its too sharp....nice one. You have such a great eye, and your figures are way beyond my current skills, such terrific inspiration, Thanks CW, a joy to watch!! Take Care, Bill. BTW, love your music choices, I'm a big Tangerine Dream fan, and the end music is very similar....

A great diorama, full of wonderful details. Excellent work on all the components. Great figures which fit very well. It's a pity that DMD doesn't also produce these in 1/72. An in every kind impressive work, Ian. Best wishes and nice weekend. Joachim

Glad you like it Joachim👍

[@scottroberts7875]

Magnificent . truly magnificent. aging process is genius and the filming another level of presentation... But... That tree.. has stolen the show. the cabin is awesome, the chicken's and coup give it huge amounts of realism... But that tree Ian, Wow. if this just the January instalment, .

I am new to 1/35 model making and i am totaly blown away at your talent havw watched hours of your videos thank you. One thing i just cant master , figure out is proportions of buildings , do you sell any plans or advice in how to work out heights of buildings. Once again thank you

[@CWModelling]

Thanks for watching......The basic premise for scaling buildings is to use reference photos and known 'measurements' like doorways and then compare them to a human figure, you can then use these proportions in relation to a 1/35 scale figure to gauge the size of your building. I don't think accuracy is essential as long as it looks right. There are scale drawings for my last project available to download on my Patreon as well as a PDF painting guide and over time I hope to add drawings of older projects such as this one, if you're interested - www.patreon.com/user?u=79428899 👍

the dry brushes are from Artis Opus👍

[@IGNATIUSGRECH]

great work and great diorama. Pity there is no explanation to the colors used. One only has to guess what colors you are using, especially on the log house. Excellent work.

[@CWModelling]

Thanks....no preconceptions and no constraints mean that its basically up to you to decide.....which can only be a good thing👍

It looks like at any moment, someone is opening a window of that cabin.

[@guntherb5259]

Another fantastic work of art Ian. I like how the previous builds link in. As ever, very inspiring and a first class diorama. You always make it look so easy, I would be interested to see if there were ever any areas that didn’t go to plan! Out of interest what do you do with all your finished articles? Thanks for sharing and taking the time to publish the video.

[@CWModelling]

Many thanks👍..........oh, things go wrong all the time but some creative editing takes care of that, lol......I have some shelves in my work room where the dioramas live👍

[@dongilleo9743]

This would be early in Barbarossa in 1941. The German soldiers heading east are wearing new, relatively clean uniforms and boots, and look fairly confident and fresh. The vehicle looks in new condition. It would be fun to see another diorama with the same setting, only it's 1944 and the tired, dirty, exhausted, beaten German soldiers are retreating back west in the opposite direction. They'd be wearing late war uniforms and carrying late war weapons. You could even have the same type of vehicle, only now it's pointed in the same direction as the retreating soldiers, and it's broken down and abandoned. The building could have battle damage and be partially burned. The chickens would be gone, except for maybe one rotting corpse lying in the dead grass. You could label this one "1941" and it's counterpart "1944".

[@CWModelling]

Sounds like a great idea👍

That is fantastic! Absolutely cracking result. 👏👏👏I got some veneer to try out and it's so much better than thin balsa - so thanks for that. And the weeping silver birch - well it's crazy you've scratch built a recognizable species! 😮Great inspiration. One question - sorry if I missed it - where are the chickens from, please? Great video. 👍👍
