I felt comfort in seeing others working messy and chaotic aswell during the process, but like Details. All the chaotic impulsive ideas. Had to laugh at the airbrushing tiny and light bits around. Looks like me :D Nice Build and Series!
Awesome build. Love the idea of building a diorama that fits in a cubic foot, and painting in the contrasting warm/cool hues really sold the scale and richness of color. Awesome.
this is awesome, crackle paint would've made the lava look great, especially if it was the black one to give it that glowing through a surface film type of look
I LOVE Boylei's old west series and I'm digging your dwarf series too (see what I did there... digging... nevermind) I didn't realize I was a diorama fan. You and Boylei are convincing me.
Funny how the mind works when toilets are concerned. Out come the gloves even though the cistern holds clean water for flushing. In an emergency you can drink the water, just don't add any blocks of bleach 😜 Great build by the way
10mm or 12mm would also make for more figures on the table. Cheaper for a DM to put together a tribe of Orcs too for example. Typical reasons why wargamers like it. Downside is individuals are less distinguishable (not such a serious issue for an army with uniform uniforms anyway) and most fantasy figures are in 25mm-28mm (not such an issue if you're 3d printing everything). One interesting benefit is that "smallish" dragons end up being twice the size in comparison which is nice. I'm actually all for it.
i only have one tiny little problem with the entire thing, only bronze weapons or armor can be cast in molds like that. harder metals get brittle if cast the harder the metal the more it becomes like glass xD so id imagine dwarven metals to shatter like crystal glass if dropped on the ground if someone had cast it in a mold. Otherwise fantastic work it looks amazing
Really great video and diorama Knarb! Can't wait to go see what Weltenbauer Club made from what you sent! I'm wondering if his project turned out as epic as yours did!
Hahaha, the moment you unpacked the "thing" I recognized it - too often had I to fix something not working with it 😅 And your build is absolutely insane amazing! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's a pretty shocking thing to be excitedly opening a package and finding a part of a German toilet, USED part of a German toilet. I like that black tar soup! That was a very cool way of adding some flowing ripples and texture to the lava by using Mod Podge and the air from an airbrush! This came out really nice Knarb! Quick question: Did you notice if the resin pour seemed to get really hot while it was drying? Or were you able to cool it by turning off the heat in your workspace?
Thanks T-Nu. This resin cures quite slowly, so I don't think it got very hot at all. The instructions say the optimal curing temp is around 20-25celsius, so I dont think I should be chilling it further.
@@KnarbMakes Excellent, good to know. I saw a tutorial where they were talking about how the heat generated can sometimes produce bubbles or get insanely hot. However, they were doing much deeper pours. Thanks for the info!
Great vid and project! Next time when you do a big led project could you also do a shot of it in the dark? It was really hard to see how the light effects looked in the video.
That looks awesome. Maybe something else you can do to make the lava more realistic Is dremel some waves in it especially around the edges of the resin. Check out minibricks if you haven’t done so they do that a lot. Great work
hey something i do to really rip upedgeaof rock areas thatmaysave you some time....take a drywall saw and drag actoss edges it really makes it non uniform just a thought
Awesome work! Would've really loved to see the piece with all of the LED's on at the end of the video. Hope there wasn't an electrical issue. I know that sucks.
Have you done any blacksmithing? Because you got the forging area pretty spot on... anvil within steps of the heat. Everything looks awesome, and I'd love to swing my hammer there hahaha. Epic build!
Wowow! What an incredible build! So awesome to see someone else who designs their own models to print. It adds a lot of extra work but totally worth it to get exactly what you're looking for. What software do you use for your designs?
First let me say I have followed you for a while and always have thought your talent is amazing but knowing that you also design your own...I dont even know the proper terminology I'm so tech ignorant lol...prints?, for 3D printing just blows my mind! Its probably covered in past videos I just don't comment much. Second. I have been wondering about using tiles as base material and now I know it's a viable option, thanks!
Very beautifull. Instructive video 👍 Since Frodo survived the lava stream around him, and the epic duel between Anakin an Obi in the lava cave, I will also believe dwarves can survive the extreme heat and infra red radiation near molten lava 😉🦕
Gotta love friends who are just as crazy as us, to the point where they'll air-mail parts of a German toilet's water reservoir halfway across the world to lend a helping hand! 🤣
Great video! Loved the Modge Podge air brush ripples, first time I have seen that technique. What do you do with these diorama's do they get sent to the Met for display? PS Shhh, but your's was so much better....
@@KnarbMakes your insta pictures are glorious haha. I highly recommend people check out your work on there. You can def see how well that effect was pulled off.
That was flipp’n crazy bro. Very well done. Love the cubed encounters idea! Can’t wait to see the world develop. And thanks for the shoutout as well!
Absolutely. Thank you for the inspiration!
This is unreal Knarb. You blow me away every time
Thanks Trent!
I'm a "dwarf person" and really appreciate this amazingly creative build-thanks for sharing it!
"It's from a toilet, Knarb!!" aaaaand subbed.
Oh, the Geberit Komplettset für Umrüstung Spülkasten-Umbauset.
Good choice, Mann! 🍺🥨
Looks great Knarb.... trust HIM to send that.
What do you think about his dropship though, better or worse than yours?
@@KnarbMakes i would never answer that
I felt comfort in seeing others working messy and chaotic aswell during the process, but like Details. All the chaotic impulsive ideas. Had to laugh at the airbrushing tiny and light bits around. Looks like me :D Nice Build and Series!
Fantastic build and great video - your production quality is going waaay up! well done
Thanks Nick!
Wow this looks so cool! Very nice work.
Dwarven science is the best in the world!
Looks great! Subbed in a heartbeat!
Nicely done!
That lava looked great Knarb! I really need to get around to doing my resin pour project. Your videos are looking better and better!
Thanks Nick. Do a smaller test project first, easy to mess up a whole board with it, haha.
5:55 Happy little stoneworks.
Awesome build. Love the idea of building a diorama that fits in a cubic foot, and painting in the contrasting warm/cool hues really sold the scale and richness of color. Awesome.
Nice build, though i think the colors could be a bit more vibrant, also experiment with some transparent parts for the liquids leaving the pipes etc.
Totally awesome mate, 10mm scale opens so many possibilities.
Especially in the automotive field.
@@KnarbMakesyes, yes indeed.
Love all your 10mm content lately, it's gotten me really inspired to explore that scale for dnd.
Only you could make epic looking terrain out of toilet plumbing knarb!!
Alternate title: Toilet to Treasure??? (Great work Knarb!)
this is awesome, crackle paint would've made the lava look great, especially if it was the black one to give it that glowing through a surface film type of look
I LOVE Boylei's old west series and I'm digging your dwarf series too (see what I did there... digging... nevermind)
I didn't realize I was a diorama fan. You and Boylei are convincing me.
I dig it :)
@@KnarbMakes i guess i could've gone with " it rocks"... : )
I love what you made from the german engineering part 😅
Thanks for sending me your treasure!
Fantastic!! 🙂
This foundry is amazing
You're inspiring, this is amazing!
I gave this a like before I even viewed because its Dwarfs and Dwarfs be cool 😁😁. Awesome job knarb wish I could like twice
wow, such a great idea for a 1ftx1ftx1ft display! So easy to take a few scenes to have an epic encounter
The atmosphere of this piece is crazy good!
This is a great diorama and a solid use of the toilet parts. I love this forge scene. good job.
Good job this diorama just seems to radiate heat, you did an amazing job on it
Funny how the mind works when toilets are concerned. Out come the gloves even though the cistern holds clean water for flushing.
In an emergency you can drink the water, just don't add any blocks of bleach 😜
Great build by the way
Just theatrics, I know the tank is clean, haha.
Epic indeed. I'm glad we got to be...privy to this. :-D
I see what you did there
Haha well said hacksaw 🤣
Wow, I love it!
Wow. Impressive!
Love all the little details.
*subscribes*
Superb piece full of life, love the mix of foam and 3D printed details 👍
From toilet to treasure. Nicely done, Knarb
Extraordinary and magnificent!
Here at the recommendation of Studson! I always appreciate finding more creators who make dioramas and models, especially fantasy-based ones!
This is TOTALLY AMAZING! I love all the little Dwarves! Kind of small for my EYES! BUT THIS BUILD! EPIC KM!! SAVED IT!
Amazing, my dear.
Thanks Susan!
Fantastic build.
I love it!
Really cool. Wonderful composition and so much vibes
Awesome job. Knarb keeps raising the bar
Very well done!
You should combine all of the dwarven dioramas you have.
Really nice build. Love the paint job.
You know, D&D really should be 10mm, because that looks fantastic as an encounter area AND as an art piece.
10mm or 12mm would also make for more figures on the table. Cheaper for a DM to put together a tribe of Orcs too for example. Typical reasons why wargamers like it. Downside is individuals are less distinguishable (not such a serious issue for an army with uniform uniforms anyway) and most fantasy figures are in 25mm-28mm (not such an issue if you're 3d printing everything). One interesting benefit is that "smallish" dragons end up being twice the size in comparison which is nice.
I'm actually all for it.
Creative and stunning job, love the lava and the lights...
This is a nice, relaxing video; and the diorama is full of flavour.
Great build!
Very clever!
I think it would be really cool to try and actually GET bubbles in this resin, it would really add to the lace feel I think
i only have one tiny little problem with the entire thing, only bronze weapons or armor can be cast in molds like that. harder metals get brittle if cast the harder the metal the more it becomes like glass xD so id imagine dwarven metals to shatter like crystal glass if dropped on the ground if someone had cast it in a mold.

YEAAAAH ROCK N STONE BROTHERS!!!
Wowie!!!
German toilet parts never looked so damn neat!!!
ROFL!
Really great video and diorama Knarb! Can't wait to go see what Weltenbauer Club made from what you sent! I'm wondering if his project turned out as epic as yours did!
Definitely a cool build. Great work as always.
This is amazing!
Fantastic !
Wow, that's sweet! Such creative imagination. Nicely done. 😍👍😍💪🍔
Absolutely stunning work!
Some lava in the buckets of the lava wheel is about the only way you could take this any further
Hahaha, the moment you unpacked the "thing" I recognized it - too often had I to fix something not working with it 😅
And your build is absolutely insane amazing! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Haha, so have I. Instant recognition.
It would be really cool if you added some glowing crystals/ore into it to give it some color
This is so cool! Amazing job 🤩
I'm a big fan of Boylei's western theme, this will fit right in! Except for the dwarves, off course
You do awesome work!
It's a pretty shocking thing to be excitedly opening a package and finding a part of a German toilet, USED part of a German toilet.

to be precisely that are parts of the flushing system. It came only in contact with clean Water.
@@Craftlngo Haha! All used plumbing supplies are suspect. : )
Great vid and project! Next time when you do a big led project could you also do a shot of it in the dark? It was really hard to see how the light effects looked in the video.
I would love to see you make a drawven home out of geodes.
That looks awesome. Maybe something else you can do to make the lava more realistic Is dremel some waves in it especially around the edges of the resin. Check out minibricks if you haven’t done so they do that a lot. Great work
Love minibricks dioramas. Good tip!
Amazing!
NOW THIS IS ROCK AND STONE LADS
hey something i do to really rip upedgeaof rock areas thatmaysave you some time....take a drywall saw and drag actoss edges it really makes it non uniform just a thought
Really loved the entire build. Might have to invest in a clear cast resin one day now 😂.
Go for it!
Awesome work! Would've really loved to see the piece with all of the LED's on at the end of the video. Hope there wasn't an electrical issue. I know that sucks.
They were on, my photography lights just overpower it, check my instagram for some better photos of it with the lights on.
“It’s from a tooooileeeeet” 😂
ROFL!
Have you done any blacksmithing? Because you got the forging area pretty spot on... anvil within steps of the heat. Everything looks awesome, and I'd love to swing my hammer there hahaha. Epic build!
Im a Dwarf at heart
@@KnarbMakes am more of a goblin myself, but a friend of the Dwarves always :D
Wowow! What an incredible build! So awesome to see someone else who designs their own models to print. It adds a lot of extra work but totally worth it to get exactly what you're looking for. What software do you use for your designs?
Very cool, not enough dwarf foundry dioramas around.

Second. I have been wondering about using tiles as base material and now I know it's a viable option, thanks!
Thanks so much Thomas! You got it right, printed designs.
Epic
Awesome job!! Would your share your 'spackle' recipe?
Epic!
Siiiiickkkkkkk🔥🔥
Very beautifull. Instructive video 👍 Since Frodo survived the lava stream around him, and the epic duel between Anakin an Obi in the lava cave, I will also believe dwarves can survive the extreme heat and infra red radiation near molten lava 😉🦕
What would you recommend for someone to start designing their own STL greebles and minis? Can anyone point me in the direction of some good tutorials?
Check out Artisans of Vaul, another channel on UA-cam focused exclusively on blender modeling for miniature 3d printing.
Gotta love friends who are just as crazy as us, to the point where they'll air-mail parts of a German toilet's water reservoir halfway across the world to lend a helping hand! 🤣
Farkinell!
'Miniature dwarven foundry' - but it would be, wouldn't it?
very cool but idk if the transparent lava really makes much sense tbh
Great video! Loved the Modge Podge air brush ripples, first time I have seen that technique. What do you do with these diorama's do they get sent to the Met for display?
PS Shhh, but your's was so much better....
Haha, I wish. They just hang around my basement for now.
awesome, but you never lit it up did the water kill your LEDs?
Ah, they are lit up, just very diffused. Ill post some comparisons on instagram later on if you are curious. On/Off look
@@KnarbMakes your insta pictures are glorious haha. I highly recommend people check out your work on there. You can def see how well that effect was pulled off.
Nice job. But now I have the Diggy Diggy Hole song in my head T_T
This one fucking amazed me
Fantastic! What foam did you use for your miniature?
Have you ever considered doing a Hobbit/LOTR themed build series. Keep it in mind.
Bro, this turned out so cool. I love these smaller scale fantasy builds. How did you feel the LED's worked out in the end on this one?
Better than previous attempts. You can never go too bright with these, haha.
