Miniature Abandoned Scene with RAIN?!

This diorama was made to photograph and film and not as a display piece. Again based on a photo from an abandoned mental hospital I built the diorama in such a way that I could film it from multiple angles. It’s a bit larger than most of my work and was a fun experiment. At the end of the video I use some tricks to film it in a unique way and maybe even destroy it!
Hope you all enjoy! If you have any questions at all drop them in the comments, I have enjoyed interacting with everyone.

[@agneschrismer9946]

You're not only a great artist, you're damn good at photography .

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thank you! I appreciate that! I really enjoy both.

[@muffinmc4462]

I mean it's both an art. ^^

[@Quailbbu]

Photography is art

[@alexandrasukeforth3337]

I continue to be so pleased to see someone else, especially a young person, that also delights in ruined buildings. Keep up the good work

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Glad you are enjoying the videos! I appreciate it!

[@Dscustomcolelctables]

Amazing video effect at the end 🔥

[@livelyeko]

Abandoned buildings give off amazing vibes. I wish to go urban exploring with friends when I am old enough

[@thevsis-]

@@AbandonedMiniatures Hey please tell me what hoodie are you wearing outside, looks sick!

[@CrixJoki]

That rain scene was epic :) 💜 things we do for art!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Absolutely haha.

[@8ballout]

Amazing diorama, can't believe you've smashed it. Ever thought about putting them up for sale? Couple of bucks in the hand is better then a smashed up diorama in the bin.

[@elishachittenden885]

True

[@kellyhoulton2998]

It's one thing to see a beautiful, pristine, well-built miniature model... it's quite another to see an ruined, abandoned space created so realistically. You create such amazing decayed detail work! Loved the thunderstorm! Makes me want to see an old Frankenstein's lab set up with a thunderstorm - complete with the "creature" under the sheet!! Awesome work, dude!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Haha yes this one was especially fun to film. Thank you!

[@kaydenbush]

Your use of the latex on the radiator is just stellar. Legit the best rust effect I've seen for miniatures on KZbin

[@MelAtlNP]

Wow! True Artistry on so many levels! You even impressed my husband who is not easily impressed by much of anything!

[@ninjamel_official5730]

These are the coolest model dioramas I've ever seen anybody make on KZbin. there's so realistic and they just have that gritty detail, it's amazing! by far one of my favorite channels! The only reason I found this channel is because knarb makes gave a shout out.....

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much! I’m glad he shared my channel with you, I appreciate the kind words!

[@nigromarte7017]

AMAZING, it was SO worth it to put rain over it just for filming purposes. Congrats for the thousand! Cheers!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thank you! It was a lot of fun!

[@rcnitrodude999]

I have explored and photographed numerous abandoned buildings. Your work is on point, I friggin love it!

[@mitchweissman5445]

......YOU ARE BEYOND TALENTED ‼( AND MIGHTY HUMBLE).......TRULY AN ARTISAN & ASSET TO THE ART/MINIATURE/ PHOTOGRAPHY COMMUNITY ☝🏼........[SOUND TRACK ON POINT]

[@DreamingCatStudio]

Loved this! The part at the end was so satisfying-I love storms! You have such a great eye for color, the ceiling and rafters were perfect. I’m sad you didn’t add the graffiti-it’s such a ubiquitous part of urban decay! What are those cool weights? Thank you!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

This one was so much fun to film! The weights I think you’re talking about are called 123 blocks. They are heavy but also perfectly square so they are great to line things up together.

[@demetriospappas1112]

Your abandoned models are amazing to say the least! Every time I watch them, I become more inspired to do my own. Thank you very much for the videos.

[@jordanjones2046]

That was awesome. If I had only seen the last part I would have thought that was a real room being filmed during a rain storm, and never guessed it was a diorama. Bravo!

[@brentonjoseph]

WOW!!! That rain scene is absolutely mind blowing. Working my way through all your past videos is such a treat!

[@gtramsey2000]

Dude, I can’t believe your channel and work is coming on so much already, you definitely deserve it. I really like the approach here and trying something beyond just the dioramas as still pieces (although they’re still awesome). I think the effects worked out great. Looking forward to the next one!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

I appreciate that! I want to do more with photo/video effects and showing the process in the future.

[@choppysocks]

I’m blown away by your work.

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much! Glad you like it!

[@fmyouthdev]

I am getting obsessed with watching diorama videos, yours are really relaxing! I like your style!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

I appreciate that! It’s a lot of fun!

[@harrisonlong644]

Love the storm part at the end. I hear that in the film industry they shoot the jets of water up, so that it falls back down using just the force of gravity like real rain.

[@jahyamack8359]

I looked at the thumbnail genuinely thought this was a cinematic of a real abandoned building. Good stuff!

[@GradKat]

This is remarkable. You’re incredibly talented. I loved the whole process of creation - and the thunderstorm too!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much!

[@TNCXBUNBOX]

Somebody pls agree with me that he has the charm just like Chris Bale - The Batman !! Amazingly great artist and a mad good photographer, indeed ! Love your work !

[@impulsivecrafting]

I've been watching scratch build and model videos for a while now, and I can't believe that this is the first day I've seen your videos - and I've been binge watching for the last 3 hours. Your work is absolutely mind blowing! I can only hope to be as good as you when I finally start trying to make my own.

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

That’s awesome! So glad you’ve been enjoying the videos. Definitely give it a shot!

[@pocketpj2722]

if i had the ability to, id be traveling to explore abandoned places. its cool to see someone appreciating them in even more artistic way than just photographing

[@NoelKerns]

Absolutely an amazing artist...I literally shouted with joy when I saw how beautifully the rain effect came out on film. Absolutely breathtaking!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much! Glad it was all worth it!

[@allengilby3054]

So satisfying to watch.

[@The1_EpicNinja]

This is literally the first time I’m watching your video and I’m subbing to your channel

[@artieeznuts]

this is the most gorgeous thing i’ve ever seen i love dioramas

[@brittany-diana4774]

The passion in this video is so admirable

[@paulh9173]

I often use coffee grounds for earthworks and spray a little black and black high gloss for coal/cave/underground treatments. I like your work!!

[@MAY0..]

Your builds make me come up with an entire story in my head. They are really cool and I think they'd be cooler with backstories.

[@TommieG60]

THAT was absolutely PHENOMENAL!! You got skill and talent!! AWESOME VIDEO!!!

[@brandoncroslin9039]

Beyond amazing man. The attention to detail is a true show of patience and love for your craft. Some of the best dioramas and lighting shots I've ever seen. Period

[@cabbageleon4914]

DUUUUDE the rain scene looked straight out off of a videogame. that was insannneeeee

[@ClaudiaMcNeely]

Your aging techniques are absolutely amazing! I would have never thought about roughing up the walls with a Dremel. I have learned a lot from Ara too. She is very talented. I think I will learn a lot from you too.

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the kind words!

[@corpus-ov9rq]

Really brilliant piece. Loved the feel of the lighting and then the rain just helped. The wet floor was amazing. Here's to 1000 more and beyond!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thank you!! I loved how the wet floor worked out too! Maybe in the future I can find a way to make one look wet like that permanently.

[@dr-onestuffido]

Awesome work as usual 😊 you certainly have a talent for recreational dioramas. I would personally love to see you do a abandoned night club, broken lights, stage and dance floor. Glitter ball and all lol 😂 superb work and a great talent

[@birdie399]

The photography is very atmospheric. Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it.

[@thewatchworks1372]

This is amazing, this video randomly popped up in my recommended tab, and at first glance with the thumbnail, I thought it was an actual urban exploration video!

[@daviddunn4538]

This is art at the highest level.

[@niknak_1015]

JESUS THIS IS A HELLA MASTERPIECE!!!😍👌👌👌👌👌

[@lahphotonwa2930]

Beyond cool. I can’t fathom destroying my art but sometimes.....

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Haha it wasn’t easy!

[@alliekingsley7919]

You have an amazing artistic eye and I am deeply impressed with both the original photo and the miniature version you made. Sad that it was destroyed, but I totally get the *why* of it.

[@V1CE777]

Whatever you do, don't stop doing what you do. Much love bros.

[@cocoanightnmare]

The thunderstorm video was amazing!

[@shanebowles4854]

Your miniatures are amazingly beautiful bro 🤘👊👍

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thank you!!

[@headrushindi]

What a wondrous job . Kudos to you for creating this art with such limited resources . !! Great Job !!

[@LittleDergon]

Those last shots were so so cool!

[@dark8772]

See an abandoned house people feel it scary but this artist feel like I take it as so beautiful n ithe light comes out from the selling is so cool

[@helenamirian908]

Well done! Good move taking the top layer off the foamcore. Some people never figure out to do that and it makes all the difference.

[@henrytownshend6487]

Jesús Man! I really enjoy watching your videos....you're amazing

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much!

[@abhishekbanerji6559]

Nice to see a miniature artist AND a fellow DWP fan!! Haha!

Looks something out of Dead by Daylight. Awesome masterpiece!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thank you!

[@lyndagrech2596]

Los suscriptores no le hacen justicia, impresionantes trabajos este canal debería de tener millones de suscriptores.

[@frankdingle9920]

I loved the end result with the thunderstorm. A true stroke of genius. Sadly it had to die, but it was done for arts sake

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

I appreciate it!

[@AndreaMerchak]

WOW! That's epic! I loved it! You're incredibly talented! Not only on building the diorama, but filming cinematically this! I'm very impressed!

[@lmccabs4063]

A great work of art! Keep them coming.

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much!

[@selfawarepsycho411]

New subscriber. Instantly hooked after watching your challenge with Bently House. My current project isn't even a building and your videos have my mind RACING. ❤

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

So glad you like them! Thank you!

[@777fiddlekrazy]

*******Get a flexable Rotary wand for dremel (rotary)tool. Its like carving and shaping with a pen. You'll never go without it once used it. I often will set up 2 to 4 Rotary drives with flex wands and different cut bits so i can just grab and not spend time swapping bits. Kinda like grabbing from a box of crayons. Love your work!! Exquisite Miniature!!*******

[@johnboulton1109]

Wow!! What a fantastic diorama, so detailed, decayed and super realistic!! You captured the look of this abandoned room. The photos looked fantastic! I had mixed feelings about seeing it be smashed up, but I did why you had to do it! Really looking forward to seeing your next one!

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much! It was a lot of fun to do something different with it at the end. Filming it was definitely one of my favorite parts. Appreciate the support!

[@Yuushiboy]

So creative, so much depth. Your amazing!

[@jillcaryltamang654]

I just discovered you yesterday and I'm glad YT recommended you huhuhu Now I'm inspired to really do actual dioramas. I actually enjoy making low-budget dioramas for school projects (like using popsicle sticks, toothpicks, buying toys to make up for 3D printing things, etc.) but really did not have the budget and inspiration to really pursue it. Thank you so much for this! You should think about selling your made dioramas heheheh

[@dilihopa]

I thought of Nix and Gerber as well. Great work.

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks so much!

[@SimoneFlen]

Wow, what a talent. Love your work.

[@blaiddthewolf8532]

[@lifewithjay-den2503]

Amazing job!! Photographers unite! I also have just made a couple of small dioramas of sort. They are in snow globes.^^

[@AbandonedMiniatures]

Thanks! That sounds cool!

[@magicwoodjewelry]

What are you doing man! Your final scenes blow my head. You amazed me with this effect You are the Master. I've been doing urbex since 2009. I've seen a lot of great abandoned places. Watching your dioramas feels like I'm there. It makes an impression.

[@peachesthesordid8619]

That is amazing. So glad I found this channel.
