it looks for all the world like the ocean is sloshoing out of the tub i=on video. Litle bright spots along the rim look like water splashes. Pretty cool actually.
I have a 1:350 scale Seaview kit arriving this week . So I've been on a crash course on images of the kit .But your diorama and it's process is facsinateing ,and the end product is just terrific . But I don't have the resources or skill level to do it .But thank you for your episode ....Yours truly DGR
Very impressive water diorama, Oggie. I am always blown away by the skills and patience that you demonstrate in the finishing stages of your projects. Thanks for sharing this!
Thanks William. I have a lot of fond memories of watching the show as a kid with my older brother. Unfortunately the show started down the monster of the week path much like Lost in Space. Just doesn’t hold up as well as Trek. Still an enjoyable watch as long as u keep that in mind. Season is a bit more serious which is a good thing. The Seaview and the flying sub are fantastic miniatures and are two of my all time favorite ships. Thanks for your compliment.
Wow you little diorama looks wonderful. It really is an accurate representation of the Seaview on the surface. I am with you about how realistic look of the Seaview on the surface. I always thought they did a great job with the 17' model. I have seen some photos of the 17 foot model with piping going down the sides of it. I think it would blow bubbles out to represent the foam that made up the wake. Whatever they did though worked real good. You diorama it great and I am sure will look great at Wonderfest.
Thanks for that - it turned out really well and really helpful! I am currently doing a build of Jacques Cousteau's Calypso and want to do an ocean base for it so your timing is great for me!
That is absolutely amazing, I was waiting for it to start moving. Good luck at Wonderfest, can't wait to see that video. Thanks for sharing your work with us.
Really cool diorama Oggie! I saw your posts on Facebook through the week, and was getting more excited as to seeing the final result. Happy days and model on! 😎

Great use of this kit.The two versions of the Seaview might be better referenced as the 8 window version which was used in the 1961 film and also the entire first season of the TV series,and the 4 window flying sub refit which was used in tv series season's 2 thru season 4. I notice also that when building the 4 window version most modelers omit the darker grey stripes on the sides of the deck and the smaller darker grey stripes on the sail mounted diving planes.
@@InterstellarModeler Hey Oggie, since you're a bit of an Irwin Allen fan it might interest you to know the he used stock footage and a few new scenes of the Seaview and Flying Sub models in a movie from 1971 called City Beneath the Sea that started Stuart Whitman and Robert Wagner (Richard Baseheart makes a brief appearance as well). I'm pretty sure the Jupiter 2 model was also used. The movie was a pilot that never got picked up but still worth a watch if you ever come across it.
Outstanding build Oggie ! Thank you for sharing. And Thanks for the "learning" . I was wondering how to display two 3 D kits I picked up a few years back ( a 4 " Seaview and a 3" Seaquest DSV ) Now I might try your technique. Hope you and your loved ones have a great/safe week ! Take care !
Great build...I think they used some kind of detergent in the water to simulate the foam but I might be wrong, there's gotta be a "making of" video somewhere that shows that process...thanks for sharing!
The 17 foot version of the Seaview had a tow rig which had detergent saturated water pumped through it and throughout the sub to simulated the foam wake.
Great build Oggie. The water effects in particular turned out amazing and very realistic. I'd love to see you go into a bit more detail in a future video on the steps you take to print your own decals. We've all been burned when one of those waterslide decals tears up so having a backup solution is really useful.
Thanks Tony, yeah I'll keep that in mind. What made making decals easier for me is photoshop. Allows me to resize and manipulate things. My biggest trouble was printing. The ink wouldn't stay but the acrylic gloss coat was the key for sure.
Who knows, maybe the TV models were filled with baking soda and vinegar to create the Seafoam look. Special effects were very imaginative back in those days.
The wave wake seen on screen when the model wades through the water was created by a rig underneath at the front that would blow out detergent bubbles in the water. They had to be creative back then than rely on CGI.
The cotton looked great on TV, very realistic. It would be cool if you could add the flying sub flying along beside Seaview. Would this diarama fit inside the case your Battlestar launch tube is in? If so would make it easier to travel.
Thanks Dewane. Unfortunately it doesn’t fit into that display case. I did consider using that display at the onset of the project but it didn’t leave enough area around the sub. Thanks and I appreciate your nice compliments
First - in NO way do I think I could have done even half as good. That being said, it is a shame you did not use transparent resin as it would have nice to see a little of the "underwater" parts of the Seaview.
Wow Oggie, that came out great! Thanks for sharing your process, really nice to see how you did this. Quick question, what decal paper are you using? I am at the point where I need to create some custom decals and I'm ready to take on another first... Making my own decals. Thanks, have a a great day. -David
Hey Oggie The cotton wave foam looks great, it made me think of a few different uses. Are you looking forward to the new Star Trek show coming out? Take care🙂
Amazing work!! But a quick question: When will these be mass produced so that we all can have one?!? ;-) Thanks again for sharing and have fun at Wonderfest.

Lol….no doubt lots of fun things u can do with video these days. I used to be more into video and photography but just no extra time at this point. Thanks for watching, I appreciate the kind compliments too
A brilliant effect, so realistic. You would never guess how it’s achieved, but not anymore. Thanks.
Thanks Eugene
Outstanding Job.I can remember the original Movie and the tv series
Thanks
Excellent. I can smell the salty ocean air.
Thanks Richard
I love this!!! One of my favorite TV shows ❤️!!! Beautiful display!!!
Thank you
That really turned out excellent!! I would have never thought to use cotton for the white caps of the waves. It all looks fantastic!
Thanks
Great build and terrific effort on this. The scale appeals to me as its not as daunting. Keep it up, appreciate all the Sci-fi things.
Thank you

Thank u
Nicely done sir. Your Flying Sub Diorama reminded me of the
Aurora Flying Sub Kit I built when i was a boy in the 60's.
Thank you....absolutely love the flying sub

Thanks. Yeah this would be quite the project with a 350 scale for sure. Appreciate your kind compliments. Thanks for watching
For a first attempt that's pretty good.
Thanks Mark
Absolutely brilliant a nice simple way to do a sea Dio thanks Oggie
Thank you

Thanks so much
That turned out great, Oggie! Very realistic water effects!
Thanks Ken
Outstanding build Oggie! Always love what you do with your models.
Thank you very much Kenny
wonderful work
Thanks
Really turned out great. I've never seen that TV series. I'm going to go look for it and see if I can find them and watch them. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks William. I have a lot of fond memories of watching the show as a kid with my older brother. Unfortunately the show started down the monster of the week path much like Lost in Space.

I think it looks awesome and quite convincing! Love how you can use everyday things like wipes and cotton to make realistic dioramas like this.
Thank you Max
Nice work Oggie, looks just like the shot from the show. Hope you have a good time at Wonderfest this year.
Thanks Boyd. Appreciate the compliment. Would be great to see u at Wonderfest one of these yrs 👍
right on she turned out good keep them coming
Thanks
That is just awesome. Going to have to pinch this one for an idea I have for xwings flying over water diorama.
Excellent work.
Good hearing from u lain,
Thank you for the compliment
Stupendous my friend! A great video that made use of what was a basic model but turned into an amazing diorama.
Thanks Derek. Great to hear from u. Appreciate the kind words

That looks ace mate, nice little display 😉👌

Look up Model Railroaders, there is
some great water scenes in harbors
with model boats, very nice work
with your diorama, you nailed it!!
Thanks
Really cool diorama Oggie! I saw your posts on Facebook through the week, and was getting more excited as to seeing the final result. Happy days and model on! 😎

nice build.
elbions channel is great. his level of detail is pretty amazing.
if you laser print your decals there is not really any need to clear coat
Thanks. I agree Elbroin’s work is amazing
Fantastic!!
Thanks!
Nice work! I really like the wave technique, I’ll use that with my DDG model! Thanks🙏🏼
Thank you Derek

Hey Oggie
The cotton wave foam looks great, it made me think of a few different uses.
Are you looking forward to the new Star Trek show coming out?
Take care🙂
Hi Tim, thanks. Yes I’m enjoying Strange New Worlds so far. Am also looking forward to Orville’s new season 👍
@@InterstellarModeler
Awe man, I missed the 1st one...drat🙂
Do not know of the Orville one yet.
Did you watch Picard?
beats useing cottonwool like i did back in the day. definatly more dynamic look 10/10 bud..
Thanks
Amazing work!! But a quick question: When will these be mass produced so that we all can have one?!? ;-) Thanks again for sharing and have fun at Wonderfest.
Lol...Thank you David :)

With the wet wipes, what do you do at the edge of the wipe ie add another?
Try and align as close to the edges as possible and use lots of the gel medium to keep it adhered.
Maybe if you don't have poster putty, Play doh will work.
silly putty works too BTW. But you get quite a bit for $2.60 and it's nice that they come in strips too, thanks for watching.
Is that Seaview somewhere available online?
Sorry I don’t know. It was the only one I happened to stumble across at a vendor table at Wonderfest.
Havent seen any others since
Ok. Great find. Thank you Sir
