Lovely job, as usual. I like the fact that you own your mistakes and after-thoughts, however small or easily remedied they are. It's something I've learned to do, too, because I feel it's important to be authentic - for myself as much as for the sake of the viewer. It's interesting to see how mistakes are remedied. Your models always end up looking wonderful, and the authentic tale of how it came into being is more informative and engaging. Cheers for another great video.
@BoulderCreekRailroad3 жыл бұрын
Thanks so much Merrick, it’s definitely tempting to cut out the mistakes because it doesn’t seem necessary for the video but in reality it’s one of the most important pieces of information for someone wanting to follow along. I’m so happy that you still enjoy watching, and likewise I always enjoy seeing you post tutorials, you diorama bases video was superb! I’m gonna have to check out the scenic materials from Diorama Presepe 😉
@iris6573 жыл бұрын
@@BoulderCreekRailroad although i dont have the patience to ever build one of these myself, and just enjoy seeing what you create, i have to agree about the mistakes. not just to help anyone following along if they encounter similar problems, but also it makes the entire process seem less daunting. makes it seem less like something youve whipped up in a flash to amazing results, and more like something that you too can achieve if you accept there will be missteps along the way.

Thought for removeability of the base from the backdrop without gluing: You could embed magnets into the foam and then simply place other magnets over the corresponding locations beneath the wooden base. When you want to remove the foam, just remove the magnets from the wood. Just a thought.
