This is another lengthy video so I’ve included timestamps in the description above, now you can jump to the section you want and get all the good stuff without having to scrub backwards and forwards through the video... Also... if you want to download the STL files for 3D printing you’ll find them here: www.bouldercreekrailroad.com/downloads.html
@29:27 Garage is also 3D Printer? Lol. Absolutely love the videos. I'm wanting to try my hand at making some scale models and I think I'm driving my wife mad talking about it and looking up information and materials, etc. Thanks for the inspiration!
you need to post more often bro, and also have you ever thought about seling diorama kits like a pre made scenery or a pre made theme i would buy that for sure. warm regards from brasil
"as most of these details will be inside the house, I wasn't too worried about them being absolutely perfect..." *reveals absolutely perfect mini furniture* :o
Oh! I just had an idea! At 22:49 when you add the fence, I realized that you could attach some extra long strands of grass there, to simulate the edge that naturally occurs when mowing lawns; whenever I've mowed a lawn up to the edge of a fence, the blades have never managed to get all the way perfectly up to the edge, and even if they're hit with a weed-whacker it doesn't tend to have a 100% perfectly uniform surface. I think that having some slightly taller grass at these edges (including the house) would help a tiny bit more. :D I also wonder if you have a kind of super-stubby dead grass (either static or using your awesome chalk-scraping technique) that could be used to blend the high-traffic areas like where the tires roll and crush the blades of grass. I've noticed that unless a path gets an incredible amount of daily traffic, it tends to still have some withered strands of grass remaining, so perhaps this could help, too! :) Please keep up the phenomenal work! I'm glad to hear that Noch have taken notice and sent you some freebies, you definitely deserve it! Even though I don't think I'd make much use of these techniques, your videos are always so pleasant to watch while I relax.
Beautiful job, Luke. The length was necessary to show all the detail that you gave in this video. The level of detail that you included on this little diorama is absolutely fantastic.
14:25 I cant believe how well that rock fits there : O amazes me. Oh and please make more of them! The longer the better! Since I am really into dystopic scneries right now and working on one myself, I would really like to see you make one! Like something dark and damaged.
I havent touched models in my life but I watched all your vids its like a spiritual meditation/relaxation (sooo u might keep this kind of audience in mind too) great work!
I've done wargaming scenery and dioramas before, and I can honestly say his work is top-notch. Not only does he do amazing work, but he presents it so clearly... :)
Wow. Another amazing diarama Luke. I can't even add a 'I love the ...' sentence here as there isn't anything on this diarama that I *don't* like. Excellent job 👍 A wealth of great tips in this video too 👍👍
Just came across this & when i seen the length of this video i thought, "i'll skip around & watch a min or 2...but not all of it." Boy, 30 minutes went by fast & i enjoyed every min of it! You have talented & patient hands my friend
48 people have no imagination and are stuck in a strange joyless trollscape of dusty hopelessness.. The skill, patience and care to make such wonders is astonding. Thank you for these videos
I really like that you show your materials and tools in a speed, which allows it to find the things on the market. Another thing is, that you show the details. Slowly and clear. That isn't natural for many video authors. Thank you!
Have you seen other videos from the Realistic Scenery playlist? There are real gems in there too! ua-cam.com/play/PLA1bRusvoCbQH3FDWBYn4w5TCCKzMFXU7.html
Well, the model does seem to indicate some sort of fallout, whether nuclear or otherwise, so it does seem probable that mutation resulted from such an incident.
What makes you one of the best is you attention to detail. People skip the small things which are most important.. I love this build. I’d like to see you do a stone house sometime
Please do some disaster dioramas, PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE,please
Your work deserves museum attention. Very intricately detailed. Never seen anything like the architectural quality you create outside of one. I was a draftsman and appreciate the attention you use.
Luke Towan I got a challenge for you make a WW2 inviorment including the guns and bombs there is not any videos I can find on that that’s you challenge good luck!
A professional architectural model builder in Adelaide once taught our class that to get an excellent scale effect never use vivid black or vivid white on models, always go off white or off black. Love your work!
I love the lengthy videos, awesome stuff. I appreciate all the hard work you do. How do you find the time to do all these masterpieces and fly? Keep em coming Luke!!! 👍🏻
Hey man I really like to watch your shows, you make beautiful art. I’m just curious roughly how many hours does a project like this take you? I know you make a lot of your own pieces like trees and such so it might be hard to say. Cheers.
WHAT IS HAPPENING? Hey all, I'm currently working on my next video and also moving house. While waiting for my next video, I've created a new Instagram account for my fans to post completed dioramas you've created (Conditions apply). You can check out the latest activity via: instagram.com/bouldercreekrailroad/ See you soon. Cheers, Luke
What a great idea to use magnets to glue parts together. I haven't seen anybody use this idea before. Until now I always used clamps. Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something.
Hey Luke! I've been set a project in art where I must create a sculpture of some description, and have decided to try my hand at making a diorama! The project comes in three parts, research, practical and evaluation. Is there any way I can get in touch with you to get some help with completing some of the basic questions for research?
It's hard for me to make any firm commitments due to my job, I'm an airline pilot when I'm not modeling and it takes up a lot of time. I'm flat out over the weekend and then again mid week but if you have questions I can try answer them when I get spare time (usually late in the evenings)
Luke, any chance you'd ever do a Q&A video? I had no idea you were a pilot which makes your videos even more amazing give the time commitment of being an airline pilot.
This is another lengthy video so I’ve included timestamps in the description above, now you can jump to the section you want and get all the good stuff without having to scrub backwards and forwards through the video...

Hi
makes a building
@29:27 Garage is also 3D Printer? Lol. Absolutely love the videos. I'm wanting to try my hand at making some scale models and I think I'm driving my wife mad talking about it and looking up information and materials, etc. Thanks for the inspiration!
I think time stamps are not working
you need to post more often bro, and also have you ever thought about seling diorama kits like a pre made scenery or a pre made theme i would buy that for sure. warm regards from brasil
"as most of these details will be inside the house, I wasn't too worried about them being absolutely perfect..."
*reveals absolutely perfect mini furniture*
:o
Hahahahaha if those aren't perfect then what is????
I was thinking the same thing ha ha perfection
Thanks for saving me from having to make the same comment.
hahahaha true
OMG I know right😂
I can't believe these videos are free, this paid-quality content.
Shhhhh!!!! Don't say that, he will get ideas...
Some of us do pay. It’s a pleasure to support, well worth the couple of bucks. Brilliant.
Shhhhhhhh
He earns money through youtube already by doing this
It's like therapy watching this stuff lol

Dam
You say this is a lengthy video but you could make hour long episodes and I wouldn’t complain XD
Beautiful job, Luke. The length was necessary to show all the detail that you gave in this video. The level of detail that you included on this little diorama is absolutely fantastic.
Who watches this but never does them
Me lol
Me.. 🥴
Your useless member of society here
elyk llieno typically his vids help me fall asleep.. lol
elyk llieno me I just like small stuff
21:09 Australian bug, scaled to the model size accurately
This looks awesome! Will you ever make a winter diorama?
That'd be awesome!
Yea I'd love to see that!
agree
That is just an ozzy winter
@@manunathan12 hahaha he maybe doesn't know what snow feels like. Just kdn oc
14:25 I cant believe how well that rock fits there : O amazes me.
Oh and please make more of them! The longer the better!
Since I am really into dystopic scneries right now and working on one myself, I would really like to see you make one! Like something dark and damaged.
These videos are like therapy for me.
“I wasn’t too worried about making them absolutely perfect”
Has a bookshelf with individually painted books
Legit won't ever use any of the knowledge I get from these videos but I keep coming back.
I havent touched models in my life but I watched all your vids its like a spiritual meditation/relaxation
(sooo u might keep this kind of audience in mind too) great work!
I've done wargaming scenery and dioramas before, and I can honestly say his work is top-notch. Not only does he do amazing work, but he presents it so clearly... :)
I could not agree more! I wish I had a creative bone but I dont so instead I too eagerly await the next video from Luke!!!
Wow. Another amazing diarama Luke. I can't even add a 'I love the ...' sentence here as there isn't anything on this diarama that I *don't* like. Excellent job 👍
A wealth of great tips in this video too 👍👍
21:10 gate crasher on the lattice :)
I think its Luke's pet from an earlier diorama!
Holy crap how'd u catch that!!
Was looking for this comment, I knew they had big spiders in Aus but I think I will stay away after seeing that monster.
That's just the small ones,at night i don't let the dog go out in case the really big spiders get him:)
Nooooooope. Nope nope nope nope nope nope NOPE.
Who else watched the whole thing? I can never skip on any of your videos man. I love it.
I'm happy to see that you're receiving products for free! These videos always make my day.
I think the amount of effort given to building the model house, was more effort put in to building my actual house.
Same
But if done well, both will end up looking real fine
I know, these tend to be better than muddy caves.
Just came across this & when i seen the length of this video i thought, "i'll skip around & watch a min or 2...but not all of it." Boy, 30 minutes went by fast & i enjoyed every min of it! You have talented & patient hands my friend
Was that thing REALLY 30 minutes long?! OMG you are right.... I agree--it went by SO fast!
48 people have no imagination and are stuck in a strange joyless trollscape of dusty hopelessness.. The skill, patience and care to make such wonders is astonding. Thank you for these videos
Dusty hopelessness? Don't be so cruel to Australia it does it's best.
I really like that you show your materials and tools in a speed, which allows it to find the things on the market.
Another thing is, that you show the details. Slowly and clear. That isn't natural for many video authors.
Thank you!
Those three roots are a great detail. It wouldn't come to my mind.
lol... I almost didn't add the roots! It was literally the last detail I added and that was because I almost forgot 🙃
I'mma 3d artist, I love watching diorama videos while working, it also helps my dynamic environment planning skills. It all carries over :P
I was super pumped when I saw the new upload! Great work as usual.
thanks mate, it's been a while since the last one!
I honestly though your profile pic was the flex-seal logo
I watch these when I'm feeling anxious. Thanks for the assistance! Beautiful!
I am obsessed with miniatures and this is where I come to fuel my hunger.
When I first saw the photo of the diorama on You Tube I thought it was real! Excellent work and tutorial. Thanks for sharing this.
holy cow!!!! This is probably the best diorama I've ever seen in my life
Nice work bro ireally admire you
Have you seen other videos from the Realistic Scenery playlist? There are real gems in there too!
ua-cam.com/play/PLA1bRusvoCbQH3FDWBYn4w5TCCKzMFXU7.html
I fall asleep every night watching your videos. I have no idea what's so calming and relaxing about them, but I do. Thank you.
That is really cool luke.
This is the first video of yours that I have watched; you are amazing. A true artist.
Once again.. Simply Amazing!
thanks mate, glad you liked it
No it's simply amazing....
It's detailed'ly amazing
Your work is amazing. I’d watch a three hour video if it was you making a diorama. You’ve inspired me...
You are the Bob Ross of modelling
Bob Ross wishes he was this good.
Easily one of my favorite channels! Amazing stuff as usual
So happy that there is another one of these, it's great
Luke, you are a true artist! I hope you are not being affected by the wild fires.
Eye catching indeed! Even the thumbnail is beautiful! Keep up the great work
Thanks Jim, I was undecided on the title for ages because I didn't want it to be misleading so it's good to know you liked the video and the title 😀
I don't know how I got here but I am thankful that someone like this exists. SuperUltraMegaFantastical work!
The bug at 20:10 is a scale monster!
Well, the model does seem to indicate some sort of fallout, whether nuclear or otherwise, so it does seem probable that mutation resulted from such an incident.
I was scrolling for way too long before finding a bug comment lol
My great grandpa made miniatures. That's actually what got him into college, and he'd probably love your creations
This is a great idea, I really love the dystopian twist. I always enjoy your videos, beautiful job
What makes you one of the best is you attention to detail. People skip the small things which are most important.. I love this build. I’d like to see you do a stone house sometime
Your house will eventually look like this if you keep collecting dirt around your garage. lol. Great content and excellent presentation 👍
Luke, you're the Bob Ross of dioramas. Such skill and such soothing videos. Love your work.
Thanks for the amazing compliment Rafael
Please do some disaster dioramas, PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE,please
No replies that's sad
@@ajdhjaoakdn2ndgoogleaccoun929 you just replied
Your long "please" is a disaster
AGREED !
@@RMSLusitania ah, yes, I see your a man* of culture as well.
*or woman
Your work deserves museum attention. Very intricately detailed. Never seen anything like the architectural quality you create outside of one. I was a draftsman and appreciate the attention you use.
Isnt a true Boulder Railroad Creek video without some kind of 'giant' bug showing up.
You're an absolute magician, Luke. Brilliant work!
Smooth as always!
thanks mate
I love to sit and watch your tutorials even though I work in 'n' gauge. You really are a very talented man
Great work man. I will never make something similar but I watched it carefully and with delight.
it's always a good day when your new videos pop into my feed
Amazing clean work as always! Well done!
thanks Matteo 😉
Awesome job!!! I've been modeling for almost 30 years and seing your video, gave me some new ideas!!! Thanks for sharing this wonderful diorama!!!
I love your videos you always keep me inspired and I wish I can be like you one day! Keep up the great content!
Thanks Ian, it's just practice really. I was a pretty average modeler but after a while with lots of trial and error I gradually built up my skills.
Luke Towan thank you

I have watched this video, at least 10 times (possibly more) and it's awesome every time!
21:12 that bug looks huge compared to the model it freaked me out when I noticed it was actually moving
Another amazing video by a true artist. Thank you.
Nice mate
thank you
WHAT IS HAPPENING?
Hey all,
I'm currently working on my next video and also moving house.
While waiting for my next video, I've created a new Instagram account for my fans to post completed dioramas you've created (Conditions apply).
You can check out the latest activity via: instagram.com/bouldercreekrailroad/
See you soon.
Cheers,
Luke
Nice
Thanks mate 😀
*_43 + 27 + 9 = ?_*
I am consistently amazed by what you can do.
Why not try a scene from Lord of the Rings, with this much detail, it will be awesome.
What a great idea to use magnets to glue parts together. I haven't seen anybody use this idea before. Until now I always used clamps. Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something.
Is the bug at 21:10 part of the model? Jk, another great model!
Look at that huge spider
He came to see the property and decifer whether or not the cost of rent was too steep
Bug just wants to check the house out
Once again sheer perfection! Your ability is amazing.
Hey Luke! I've been set a project in art where I must create a sculpture of some description, and have decided to try my hand at making a diorama! The project comes in three parts, research, practical and evaluation. Is there any way I can get in touch with you to get some help with completing some of the basic questions for research?
I think the easiest way to ask any questions is by sending me a message through my website, I'll do my best to give you some useful responses 🙂

I'm glad I stumbled upon this channel, it got me heavy into model making
0:45 this house costs $78? Oh my dear God!
Im sure it was cheaper than the 3d printer! Haha
I mean it's laser-cut
Pretty normal price for the good quality you get
The most satisfying part of this video is how it is exactly 30:00 minutes long, not one second more or less. Beautiful.

Over 516k subs and still growing...that's fantastic Luke! Great job. Cheers. 😊
Anyone who thumbed this down has to suffer from excessive jealousy that they can't accomplish the same quality of Luke's outstanding work.
You are like the new Bod Ross, every time I watch your videos it's a mix of art class, ASMR and utter inspiration. Thank you!
Wow, this is amazing! I actually am happy that this amazing model got (almost) full 30 mins of attention :D
You sir are a Master Modeler! Just OUSTANDING WORK!
You make it look so easy and yet after watching, it is much easier love the models, keep making stuff!
My favorite day of the month! Whenever Luke uploads a new video!
It’s so satisfying to watch everything fit together so perfectly!
Always happy when I see a new video, amazing quality on the models as always
Brilliant as usual. I could watch this for days.
You have outdone even yourself with this one... Fantastic job!!!
This is my absolutely favourite build of yours
Your voice is so calming. It helps me sleep
Great goodnight story!
I love your underground work on the dioramas!
Good Morning Luke. Nice work as always.
haha i love the authentic dirt! while watching your videos sometimes i forget theres a whole real world out there too 🤗
You make your dioramas with so much love! Very nice!!
This is my favorite of all your projects
Your most ambitious project yet
