    Man. Every single video of yours is just so good, going beyond the "paint plastic for wargame" is a format you've perfected over the years I've been subscribed. No one else captures that feeling of wonder and immersion within the world quite like it. Its honestly like hobby aphrodisiac

    • @52Miniatures
      @52Miniatures  Рік тому +1

      I'm very happy with the outcome. I think it looks better in real life that on camera too. There's something about the optical 2d vs 3d illusion that gets lost in camera. I hope you try it out.

    I think it’s obvious you work as a cameraman just because everything is layer out with such precision to focus the view on the main figure. Out of all the diorama UA-camrs I think you certainly have the best placement, it would be really interesting if you were to get a collab with other creators on a larger scale project.

    Love it! The diorama thing has been growing on me the last few years. I don't have the space to keep vast armies or even small armies so painting them up and sending them off to friends and family as gifts has been my ticket. Doing dioramas with them just make them that much more presentable as a gift.

    Words of wisdom from Alex, which I'll paraphrase... don't set yourself up for disappointment by expecting perfection on the first go when trying something new. I found that liberating, although I lowered my expectations a bit further as "perfection" is something I never achieve... I'm pleased when I get to "pretty good". Great video... and looking forward to seeing the dwarfs in a future video!

    That is beautiful, and actually really inspiring as a unique display piece. That will have me thinking of my RPG group and potentially putting something together that represent that. What did you use to keep it together? Plus, I didn't really care for the chaos vibe, but the hard sci-fi dwarves and alien bugs do looks pretty cool so I might check the next project out.
    That, and there were 52 comments at the time I made this. Very nice

      It was not to difficult, but I'm not sure how all the other are. They appear to be glued together. So they are moulded in subassembly? And someone else glues them together? I can't say. But looks like you can take them apart if you put your mind to it.
