I Made a Hoth Battle Diorama

#StarWars #Battle #Diorama
A couple weeks ago, I got my hands on two AT-AT kits from Bandai. In an attempt to be original, I decided to use them in a battle of Hoth diorama.
Jokes aside though, Hoth has been on my to-do list for a long time and I've also had many requests for it. I finally got around it it and had a lot of fun!
I get great tips from: @CajunCraftastrophe

Even though those cinematic shots already looked perfectly fine before, editing the wires out really brought a new vibe/experience to the project. It was almost as if we were viewing a real Battle of Hoth, only miniature! Already eagerly anticipating your next upload. A very clean and top quality project yet again!

[@graysonj2562]

Absolutely, you couldn’t even see the wires

[@KevinBYee]

Well, the "real" Battle of Hoth we saw on-screen was just miniatures! This is so cool!

[@drewfaulkner2967]

Absolutely incredible, and I loved the “cinematic” glamor shots at the end, but would love to get and up close of all the “important” details. I love learning all the little thing most people won’t know about a beautiful diorama. Keep doing you, love your works of art.

[@KnarbMakes]

Really love how that turned out. Cant really tell the wires are there at all in those finished shots, the illusion is perfect.

[@BrandonScottDrums]

Love the touch with the wires edited out. It does give an entirely different viewing experience. Love the vids man! Thank you! 🙌🏼

[@heirofcarnage1782]

Man, you always make masterpieces! You've inspired me to make a diarama myself, and it's been so much fun! Your passion is contagious!

[@zombie1367]

Honestly it’s so cool how one person simply having fun making dioramas can inspire so many people to make really good looking fun to make dioramas Well done btw :)

[@MagnumN117]

Always love a good Hoth diorama! The 3d printers really add a new dimension of flexibility to the scale model hobby, and as ever your lights boost everything to the next level. Have a great weekend!

[@devrichards104]

i wanna get into stuff like this but it just seems so deep. the way you so simple state your process within your builds rlly inspires me to get into this hobby

[@sjay4673]

One of my favorite cinematic scenes in the SW universe. As always, this is a stunning work of art! Keep up the great content, BHT!

[@garlandsworkshop]

Excellent build. And yes, I’m always interested in behind scenes and production…as it helps me think about how I do my videos and ponder ways to improve. Plus it’s just interesting. Thx for the continued inspiration

[@minigocreator]

With this level of skill... aren't you a member of the Star Wars art director team? I can't help but press this thumbnail😳

[@Keese26]

I just love to see how these dioramas are improving as time goes by. Good job on the diorama!! Always look forward to your vids

[@mikemcdougall8969]

As a life long hard core fan that saw the original Star Wars film in theatres, bravo sir!!!!!! This stirred some unexpected feelings in me and I’m grateful. You’re a true artist!!!!! ❤

[@jacksonmoen1111]

You are such an amazing model builder, even if I don’t like a certain genre you build in I watch the video and absolutely love it. I love all your Star Wars builds and I can’t wait for more amazing builds.

[@Yesica1993]

I'm almost as mesmerized by all the various tools/gadgets as I am by the assembling. (I did have some phantom gum pains when you were using that dental tool. Those freaking things are torture devices!) Once again, amazing! Thank you for giving me back my SW childhood for a few minutes. Heaven knows the current SW writers have destroyed enough of it.

[@chandlerbolin193]

I immediately noticed the wires edited out in the end and I think it sold the battle so much more for me. I've always noticed them there in the past, but knew it was unavoidable to have them seen. Really impressed with your edit on them too, super well done!

[@4THECRAFT]

Fantastic work mate. I didn't see a video from you last week and I imagined that you were building something big 😉. Finally it was worth the wait 👍👍

[@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307]

Scale is what out then again it cant be correct as the movies never get ti correct :)

[@masonlees]

AH YE PROPER BRI'ISH

[@Nelson-lf6tc]

Good job on making this video. The way you did the camera at 1:32 really made me feel like I was one of the troops looking at the ATs

[@Scapesy]

So good! The hidden wires in the edit was a nice touch!

[@CajunCraftastrophe]

I LOVE it, C! Man, all of your work is just tip-top. The little footprints, the big AT-AT footprints, the blaster marks, the wiring, LEDs, etc... So good! Thanks for the mention. : )

[@galopagos395]

Absolutely Outstanding. This is my favorite scene you have ever done. I love the battle of Hoth and you captured it perfectly. Your are so talented. Keep up the great work

[@emem_nrd237]

This is absolutely incredible, the amount of detail is crazy, I wish I could do stuff like this, great job

[@forgingaheadinart]

Amazing job as always!! Your attention to detail and story telling is so well thought out!! Truly inspiring!!!

[@dextergauntlett4491]

i love that i’ve been able to watch not only your hobby skills, but also your editing and video production skills improve over time :) a new boylei hobby time video appearing in my feed is a good time :)

[@o2bjedi]

Unbelievable. Beautiful craft. A pleasure to watch and see the end result.

[@Dog-the-great]

Didn’t realize how amazing a diorama could be till I started watching your videos you do an amazing job!

[@dpswets]

Love this diorama, wouldn't mind seeing more of these bigger diorama's in small scale.

[@danthrax516]

Not only do you always create wonderful dioramas, you’re just an overall talented person. And I for one enjoy the subtle humor in your videos 😌

[@DutchDaveModels]

How awesome to picture this attack scene with the light effects used. I myself used the scene where Luke is hanging from the belly of an AT-AT after he crashes his snowspeeder.. very cool diorama ✨👍✨

[@daldanus]

It was such a cool touch to edit out the wires for the feature shots! Awesome work as always. Genuinly one of the best youtubers out there.

[@mistac5050]

What a masterpiece this is! And a 13 minute long extravaganza to boot!

[@tarnishedtime606]

Watching your stuff is like therapy, love it! Can't wait to see what's next!

[@Avliv_Satan]

This is one of my favorite dioramas of yours so far, I love the Hoth battle, it's so iconic.

[@Nic77408]

I look forward to these!! Love your work so much.

[@jamesduffy2446]

Brilliant work as always! I must admit though, i'm intrigued by the urban and jungle concepts you mentioned. I'd love to see you do AT-ATs or AT-STs in that setting.

[@ChocFlip201]

Your subtle comedy is what makes these videos golden. Your talent is just a byproduct 🤙🏼

[@liamn.7664]

That’s definitely one of the best diorama’s I’ve ever seen! The amount of detail is absolutely insane! Amazing job dude 👏

[@lowbeam5005]

This made me remember the AT-ATs on Kashyyyk from fallen order, that would look sick as a diorama, specially when thinking of all the weathering on the AT-ATs which I think would give it a really detailed look

[@G_1101]

I always love your videos and creativity especially the use of the LED lights I can’t wait to try that on some of my future creations

[@gammaka3510]

another amazing piece the little snow troopers really add so much flair same with the trenches and the turrets ect

[@syguy1738]

So cool! I think i like seeing both the wires edited out at the end, but also some footage of seeing them in. Just cool to see it both ways

[@braucsdaddy]

Tamiya panel liner is a godsend on these Bandai kits, if you’ve never used it treat yourself. You will love it!!!

[@hmserdihaensel6592]

Hiding the filament wires looked really convincing! Well done! definitely adds to the viewing experience, although I would keep one unedited shot of it as well to show the real thing. Just like you did! Great Video!

[@donnietheiii8759]

I really like seeing both versions in the final shots, it’s cool to see it “as it would be” but also very cool to see the craft behind it!

[@barbub3762]

This is so dope ! I love frontline/battle at large scale diorama , great job !

[@nicholaspenner5971]

I have been looking for a diorama like this for so long, THIS IS WHY I SUBSCRIBE TO YOU

[@trailurchin7369]

I am a Combat Infantry Veteran of the Iraq/ Afghanistan war with two deployments. I saw the Empire Strikes Back in the theater in the Netherlands when It came out. Years later, I can honestly relate to the trench combat on Hoth. You should do an in-trench diorama of the combat the Rebels fought to show hoe fierce they were and gave their all.

[@Tharus12]

Wonderfully recreated the atmosphere of the battle of Hoth, and the planet itself. That explosion around the bay door looks so realistic, brilliant work!

[@hammyhamster01]

This is amazing as always!! Those are really good for such a small scale and I love the blaster bolts, they just blend it all together so well! Keep it up man these videos are very entertaining and helpful as well 👍

[@diamondfazber7121]

I’ve been waiting 😈

[@sabd0832]

Love watching your Star Wars dioramas and I’m planning to make a tatooine one over the summer, could you try to make something tatooiny so that I can see how you do it?

[@markgraves4156]

WOW, what an amazing imagination you have, I have been blown away by everything I've seen you do please, please keep up the great work can't wait to see what you come up with next .

[@udorechner6846]

Awesome diorama! The machines and troops looks so nice. Beautiful.

[@ZERO_Figure_maker]

This is a wonderful diorama. Can you tell me where to buy the led?

[@LG-ii7gl]

I think he gets them on Etsy from memory

[@johnmeyers8588]

When I was in my early teens, I used to build model airplanes from the old Revel model kits. I though I was hot stuff. What you are doing is light years ahead of anything I dreamed of. This looks like a scene from the film. Fantastic job!

[@krautmaster7922]

I followed all your projecs and they evolved from nice fun builds to masterpieces! Awesome work!

[@theycallmemoist8381]

I have been binging your videos since I found you last night. So amazing, just completely mesmerized at how creative your ideas and execution are.

[@grumpy3720]

Never really knew about Dioramas and what not before until I got recommended your channel. It’s very cool seeing these small landscapes and etc. I think it’d be really cool to see a medieval castle siege or battlefield.

[@antiadam666]

looks amazing. id love to see more of the hard work that goes into the making

[@Rooster2628]

You certainly have earned the right to edit or not edit, but we appreciate you doing so and being forthcoming about doing it.

[@Orelha508]

Amazing job you did. I think, diorama from Star Wars never gets old. Well done

[@bryantfalk7021]

Just amazing! Such detail thank you for making.

[@nicowutke7758]

Simply amazing! I’m a big fan of Star Wars myself so I love it when I see stuff like this. Keep it up lad!

[@konoikurozora5851]

It's absolutely gorgeous! I love it! The monochromatic palette makes it really interesting. I'm neutral about hiding the filaments and rods in editing. It's nice to see it without, but I also like to know exactly what the piece looks like so yeah, no real opinion.

[@maxs8439]

This is perfect, absolutely one of the best you’ve made so far

[@Biggammer-jh6hs]

This is just next level. Always loved your star wars dioramas. I been a fan of you for a very long time.

[@F5Save]

You got me hooked with the Wild West Monster Hunters and now I'll watch any video you put out! You're very talented and I especially love the humor you put into your videos!

[@jamesnixon1875]

That's awesome. My favorite vehicle, characters, and scene all in one diorama.

[@thehengy3232]

Amazing as always. Your Star Wars ones are always my favorites and this one especially was really awesome. Great job man!

[@danwild1946]

Outstanding as usual! Always a pleasure watching your builds.

[@petelawson3670]

Fantastic work. Really "blown away" . The wires looked great. Keep it up man.

[@dror123987]

loved the amount off details - awesome work!!

[@AgentMeech]

The cosmetic editions in the cinematic were very well done- It was definitely pleasurable

[@jsteele726]

Fantastic work! Your attention to detail is incredible, and I love it!

[@SANFRANCISCO49ERS_PYRO]

Phenomenal!!!!! That's a thing of Beauty. GREAT JOB 👍

[@christianbushey6298]

This was amazing. Love the hiding of the filaments.👍🏽

[@mikelarry9044]

Favorite part of my night I unwind and watch you build keep up the good work

[@Ratdaddy2023]

Well done! Thoroughly enjoy watching your builds!

[@DarthStardom]

Incredible stuff as always man. Cannot explain the peace I get from watching your videos, seriously takes me to a happy place!

[@photoshop-one-zero-one]

Craazy good! The scale and proportions are awesome!

[@JustSomeDudee]

This is truly beautiful. I can only imagine the time this took.

[@TheCatanzaroShop]

Fantastic scene and great work! I like seeing both the wires edited and the real thing too. They are a necessary evil to get some realistic blaster rays!

[@petermerz2704]

Love it. Looks very realistic. Don’t know how I missed it on the weekend. Thanks for sharing. Happy days and model on! 😎🇨🇦

[@ILSRWY4]

That is one of the most awesome dioramas I have seen put together... great job!

[@michaelsimmons9296]

My God this is beautiful! So well done!

[@FlymanMS]

Simple in concept yet complex in execution, nice!

[@jackofallartforms]

This is art showcases so much talent👏🏽

[@elibell4154]

These vidoes are some the most interesting things I've watched in long while, really appreciate the details like the foot prints.

[@ruairidhkerr4109]

This is amazing! Beautiful art

[@ThatOneWalter]

The details are amazing!

[@domin8rdominant763]

Awesome job! Truly gives me the feeling of a freeze frame shot, and love the lasers in the air . Perfect scale with the troopers

[@tylersuter9706]

Amazing, such inspiring work 👏

[@TekGeekDad]

Incredible as always. It came out great and enjoyed the step by step.

[@sergiovasconcellosocriativo]

Very impressive! Nice job.

[@mitchweissman5445]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽‼️13min. of pure JOY & 💥ENTERTAINMENT .......and of COURSE WAY BETTER THAN ALL THE CURRENT EPISODES after the "ORIGINAL TRILOGY"‼️

[@MrTalhakhan01]

Amazing work. The video editing for removing the wires was great as well. I didn't even notice if the wires were edited out, but it was worth it.

[@erintoal2018]

Just found this channel, and this Star Wars diorama is absolutely amazing.
