    The real hotel is majestic, even tucked away amongst all that steel and glass - your 'miniature' rendition is magnificent in all its dystopian grandeur!

    The process to make that building was unreal. Looks perfect!

    Very kool. I am so glad the dystopian post apocalyptic vibe is back.

    Hell Yeah! This is what laser cutter is best at in this hobby, IMO. Cutting multiple smaller layers that make up a larger picture to provide depth. Chefs kiss!!! I cant wait to see what else you add!

    Looks amazing and dynamic in the background!!! ❤❤❤

    That backdrop looks amazing and despite the "flatness", the coloring makes it look very 3 dimensional. This is where the laser cutter really shines, just imagine trying to cut out all that stuff by hand. It's possible to pull off, but it would be one hell of a chore.
    The overall effect even now is very good, can't wait to see some actual miniature houses placed on the table next to it. I can already tell it'll make the 3D houses and the 2D background painting blend together really well.

    Dang son! That’s incredible. Quite the process. Looks great. As a teacher I’d love to see some of your high school projects. I can just imagine….

    Had to watch this again. This should be something you could send to ITLA as a kit they could do. I need one of these in HO…. Maybe a bit smaller though lol.

    Brilliant job this build reminds me of the work of Chandwell Michael Buildings. Which he makes out of paper & card. Which is N Scale British Rail 1990’s, very urban and run down.

    Just found your channel. I rode your "line" for a decade in the 90's and I gotta ask...do you have a name for your line?
    If I may, I would suggest "Magnetic East, QEW Parallel"
    😅
    I yelp with equal parts laughter, approval and nostalgia seeing your attempt at world building.
    You keep this up, you'll be sporting a toga and sandals soon enough.

    Dear N-scale Dystopia, such a great video of your journey into designing, compressing and building the Fairmont for your layout. Humbly think this is an excellent and beautiful example how even a narrow 5mm flat, or low relief, can add depth and the illusion of perspective to a layout. The height reduction in ratio to the reduced height of Union Station is definitely working, even with just the mockups in place. Love the level of shades and highlights you were able to create. Such an ominous building, and definitely a thing to look forward to seeing further develop in one of your projects to come. Cheerio

    I was so excited hoping there were going to be zombies on this build 😦 any plans on the future ?

    • @NScaleDystopia
      @NScaleDystopia  8 місяців тому

      Not so much zombies as this is a dystopia rather than an apocalyptic wasteland... But there will be hundreds of people dressed exactly the same... Much like inception...
