Star Wars Battle of Endor Forest Diorama - MAKING OF

[@JaredWeiler]

This quarantine situation has allowed me to start getting into scale models and dioramas. Just finished my first one and I’m addicted. Lovely work.

[@Ives1776]

Has to be one of the best star wars dioramas on KZbin. I've searched around and this one seems the best.

[@danteculley7700]

This is an absolute masterpiece

[@therevanchist8419]

Best diorama I've ever seen!!!

[@GavilanOrd]

Thanks!

[@Pereira_Pedro]

grimseever games and awesomeness bn

[@Y2Kr4SHM4N]

Urie's Apostle I’ll say 2nd best. Best was Hasbro Hoth Diorama. But their explosions suck compared to this one.

[@solumdiorama]

Have a look to my diorama and give me your opinion !😝

[@joelbeckley7924]

Hands down best endor battle star wars figure set-up ever!!!! Outstanding sir!!!!

[@alejosr]

The diorama looks amazing, but the most incredible for me are your explotions, that is really the best thing I have seen for battle dioramas. I will use it a lot, in fact we are building like 30 of those right now. Thanks for sharing.

[@GavilanOrd]

Glad you liked it and thanks for watching! You're building 30 of them?? Pictures or a link to a video of it when you're done please!

[@alejosr]

Friend, can you please share what king of painting did you use to paint your "explotions"? we are trying to use spray paint but it gets burned.

[@TheBohica77]

Man this is so cool. I admit that when you were showing how to make the explosions I thought it was not going to look so good. MAN I WAS WRONG. Those are awesome. If they look that good on camera then they must be amazing in person.

[@kyloren2799]

Lost of words, I cant believe what I just watched. Hands down my brother amazing job well done.

[@solumdiorama]

Have a look to my diorama and give me your opinion !😝

[@rustyblades2566]

This is a dream come true for a Star Wars nut like myself and many, many others.

[@BlackArroToons]

Excellent work creating this large scale scenery set up for these figures and vehicles!

[@forevertigers1975]

Everything about this blew me away. Return of the Jedi is my favourite episode, the ewoks are actually my favourite characters and I've always planned on making an Endor diorama, i'm truly inspired to actually start making it. Sincerely appreciate the diorama itself and showing the steps on building it. This is my favourite diorama i've seen so far. So cool, thanks dude!

[@billfroehlich1726]

Glad you enjoyed it! Good luck on your own diorama - the payoff is huge when you finish it!

[@yohannklein1107]

Le plus beau diorama Endor du monde !! Grosse performance !!! BRAVO !!!

[@spartan117gw]

I AM ABSOLUTLY going to build this!!!!!!!!!!!

[@etheangel2220]

This is very impressive. The trees and every thing else came out very natural, now the toys look too much like toys haha.

[@GavilanOrd]

Ha! That's awesome - maybe there is something as "too" natural . . .

[@markrussell3414]

Awesome video of star wars return of the jedi diorama awesome video Star wars collection keep collecting and may the force be with you all star wars fans 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@jonross6476]

that explosion turned out great! well worth the effort and planning

[@GavilanOrd]

Thanks Jon - wasn't sure how it was going to turn out :)

[@rkdb04official48]

I really like how dedicated you are in making this and the result is defenitely there, really awesome !

[@kasenmiller1122]

I love this diorama, I really loved Ewoks since I was a kid and saw the battle of Endor on tv, great diorama by the way

[@GavilanOrd]

Me too - despite the fact sometimes people thought they were a bit too much like teddy bears :) Thank you!

[@ponyd]

Looks amazing! Maybe add some blaster scortched marks on some trees and the side of bunker. Didn't see chewwie.

[@truthhurts7742]

Right...no blaster burnt marks. Good idea.

[@vanderpike]

This is absolutely fantastic! Brilliant use of fiber optics for the sparks. Just freakin' awesome, man!

[@GavilanOrd]

Thanks Vanderpike!

[@Weapon_X_Wolverine]

Thank you for posting such an in depth look at how you made your diorama. I always think of making a forest scene of some sort, but always turn to city scapes. Thanks a bunch!

[@jamesfiske8546]

Sorry a little late to the party! Incredible work, you are very talented! About to embark on my own diorama journey and very much appreciated the jpeg to start me off. I’m also going to be searching your other posts now to see what you have done on the other shelves. Congrats again!

[@angrygeek2499]

Cool diorama. Details look realistic. I liked it. Congratulations.

[@rondyson8323]

WOW ,...love your work ......Imagination put to good use ,.....fantastic ,....but I hope you don't have to dust it to often !! Cheers

[@butch821]

Absolutely amazing!

[@DanimalsDioramas]

This is just and amazing. I had to watch the video twice before I commented. I'm working on doing a large Endor layout for a summer project. Been racking my brain about how to do trees. I think your method looks pretty solid. And ironically enough I've been saving paper towel tubes for a while now. So I'm well stocked. lol Appreciate the tip with the speeder bikes and the string. I'll have to give that a shot. Your vids continue to be an inspiration for future projects. Thanks for sharing!

[@GavilanOrd]

Thanks for the kind words! I have to say, I've been enjoying your channel as well - especially your "Dancave" tour from October and your vignettes. Good luck with your Endor layout - I can't wait to see it!

[@arc-7echo549]

[@seandavidr]

Walmart sells LED strips in the garden section they are about 15 dollars. They're 13ft in length, include the adapter, and a remote that can change the color of the lights and make them strobe or flash.

[@CMCustom112]

Great work man! I was bit by the 6in SW figure bug about 3 months ago. Hasbro, Bandai Medicom, I got about 60 figures at this point. As well as customs. Love this stuff! hopefully I can use some of these techniques and make some cool dioramas of my own (maybe not as big).

[@GavilanOrd]

Thanks Christopher! Yeah, once you get bit it's hard to shake :) Good luck with some dios of your own!

[@Gamgan]

Looks awesome

[@zigzagdodo6693]

Man you deserve to work for Disney/Lucas Film company.. And you deserve more likes for this kind of work..

[@simonvance8054]

[@dannyrodgers3388]

Beautiful work! Great job, and thanks for sharing!

[@JimPaulJr]

Very nice work and realistic looking. I recently posted a video of a 144th scale Death Star Attack diorama depicting the attack scene from A New Hope. I combined 4 of the Bandai Death Star Attack sets along with additional 1/144th kits and some lighting effects too.

[@GavilanOrd]

I went and checked it out - awesome!

[@lasagna_r]

Wow. I am making one, and this helped. Thanks

[@GavilanOrd]

Excellent - I'm sure we'd all love to see it when it's complete!

[@lasagna_r]

Btw I am considering of making a Hoth one. Any suggestions for the snow?

[@PECY92Q]

Awesome job. Would like to get jpeg of back ground if possible.

[@EthanRhame]

Man... this looks amazing!! I subbed! I am building a 3x4 ft Endor diorama out of Lego currently.
