Hello 😊

[@BejaVue]

This is the most incredible youtube video that I have ever seen!!!😍 I am blown away by your amazing talent!! I have learned so many things from you by watching this and I never knew you could paint craft foam. What a brilliant idea to use them as shingles, that way you don't have to worry about filling any holes like you do with cardboard. This is so awesome, I can't wait to see part 2. I just recently found your channel when I was looking for Harry Potter potions. I have subscribed now and look forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us.

[@RavensMinis]

Thanks so much and welcome! I'm sure there is much more on my channel that you will enjoy watching 😄

I love your attention to detail. Everything is so beautiful. I want to thank you. I’m unable to use my hands at this time (medical issues) and watching you create is filling my need to create. I miss it so much. And your attention to detail is the thing I love to do the most. Thank you!

[@RavensMinis]

I'm sorry to hear! I hope you will recover from it very soon! I am glad my videos give you some relief!

[@carmenlitabagley5844]

This is amazing. It's no wonder it's to be continued. There's so much going on with this, and I love it! Looking forward to the next installment. Also the tea ... neat idea! I've used coffee grounds and all kinds of outdated spices for ground cover. Tea is a new one, particularly used tea. I'm going to keep that in mind.

[@RavensMinis]

Thank you so much! Yes, I have a few herbs & spices that I can use when I do all the details. I recently cleaned out the pantry!

Thank you so much!

[@liisaelts7522]

Instead of those punched out flowers on doorhandles - I found it was much easier to use those bead separates that look like 1 cm diameter flowers. The ones that have been punched out from sheet rather than poured ones. They can be easily flatten down with a hammer and they are good size for 1:12 formats. I used them under handles on 1:6 scale, but there were plenty in smaller sizes as well. Love your videos ❤

[@dianabizet4264]

Really fantastic

[@im_vibez]

You should try watering down some paint then brushing it over all the creases, then use a paper towel to dry up the excess, this helps get into the nooks and crannies without you having to go in manually with a brush, This looks amazing btw

[@RavensMinis]

Thanks! I do that sometimes if the surface is not super absorbent

[@im_vibez]

@@RavensMinis Makes sense. If the surface is too absorbent it could end up becoming soggy. Thank you for responding. I love your videos and your creativity. It really inspires me to start doing these types of crafts 💕

[@DrChattan]

Great project. It may have already been mentioned but if you put your gorilla glue water mix in a spray gun it's easier to apply without disrupting your tea. In fact you can just place the tea and spray instead of gluing the tea first.

[@RavensMinis]

Thank you! Thing with that is that the nozzle will get clogged as it dries. It's really good glue. Thanks for the suggestion though!

[@DrChattan]

Darkest Raven Designs true it it a strong glue. I use gorilla wood glue. Often I've seen diorama builders use pva glue watered down in a spray bottle to fix grass etc.

Cool, I might give it a try at some point!
