Tip ~ if you put your plaster mixture into a baker's piping bag, it's super easy and very little mess when applying the plaster to your walls! Works like a charm!
Great technique on the stone. At first, I was thinking '35 minute video, that's too long'. The pace you had was perfect; no time wasted on small talk. You explained your process very well and didn't spend too long on any segment. super well done. I couldn't believe how fast 35 minutes went by. Thanks.
It was so satisfying to watch this house come to life. Medieval structures are my favorites, but the music could be better. Underly this video with some authentic medieval music and realise the difference.
My dad used to be a Model Railroader. One of the things I learned from him was "very very seldom does nature give you just one layer of Anything." He would rattle off some element of the Lay Out, and spend a few minutes showing me the difference between 'flat', and 'natural'. So, in memory of Daddy, I would add another sprinkle of leaves...especially on the roof. Color them if it's autumn. Maybe a tree stump (holy cow! BIG tree!) From where that old monster died and came down...who knew it was that far gone? Blocked t'road nearly a week. OTOH...I absolutely love the way those cobble stones turned out!
According to "experts", these places never existed in those times. lol. Yes they did. And much more. Great work! The roof shingles were the best part for me.
I would have killed for a friend like you back playing D&D in the 80's/90's. Phenomenal builds you have put together and your attention to detail is great. Will be binging a lot more of your videos over the coming weeks, not that I play anymore, they just really relaxing to watch your work. Peace from the UK.
Thank you so much for all your kind words!!! It makes me so happy to hear you enjoy watching my content. Thanks again for all your support, and thanks for watching!
Wow thank you so much, you’re too kind! And your work is absolutely amazing!! I love how you use real construction methods and materials for your awesome projects! Thanks again for watching and for all your support :)
It looks absolutely amazing! I'm so jealous of all the great builders who have the skill and necessary equipment to create such wonderful models and dioramas. I could sit and watch a model like yours for hours. 🙂
I remain impressed by what you show here, even after watching it several times, it has given me so many new ideas. By showing how you make it, I have slowly started building something again and am seriously enjoying it again... so thank you for giving me a new old goal.
Thank you, I’m glad you liked the video!! I definitely would’ve liked to add a sign, but I waited til the last minute and ran out of time unfortunately. I also did experiment with adding several flickering leds once I installed the glass. I opted not to install them because it looked more like the building was on fire haha! Thanks again for watching!
The detail just keeps on getting more incredible.. I was so impressed by the cobble path that I almost fell out of my seat when the custom made miniature leaves came out.
I agree with you. The complete videos not only show us technique, but lots of technique and real application - as long as your verbal tutorial. I loved this one!
Looks good as hell....!! Perfect for modeling railroads. When i was a kid i use to take close up pictures 📸 with a polorid Camara of log cabins my mother made from real sticks to sell as displays and i added metal scale cars and take pictures used to look so real. Your house model took me back
What a beautiful piece! You are so observant and I enjoy your explanations on building techniques and color choices. The end result is so realistic, especially when you bring it outdoors with natural light and trees! Great work!
I really like it especially the cobblestones. I like to populate my scenes, and in this case put people inside the pub and maybe even a tiny drunk lying out frnt in the bushes?😅
Reminds me of architecture school in the 90's. We built lots of models from balsa, basswood, matt board & foam core board. Suggestion for the glue-up. Tape, or spray-fix, your drawing to a piece of foam core board then cover with wax paper. This will keep your glue from sticking to your drawing. Use T-pins stuck into the foam to hold your parts in place while the glue dries. Nice model... I wish had access to model railroading skills when when I was in college!
This is a great piece, one thing missing is the lack of truly straight edges in buildings of this age, One thing you need to try is cutting the balsa trips out of sheet balsa freehand. This will give a characteristic unevenness typical of such buildings. It's a bit more work but will make a huge difference to realism. Your techniques for wooden framing, like inlay with plaster, are great though and I will try this out myself.
If you ever do a Bavarian building, please keep in mind that many of those buildings are painted with brightly colored designs. It could be fun for you!
Never seen a real Tudor manor house with shingles. Clay or slate tiles, some had thatch which due to fire was often changed to tiles. The brickwork on the manor houses was very complimentary, some were a mix of stone and brick set at angles. The chimneys were numerous as most rooms had fire grates in them. The chimneys stacks were often works of art. I respect that you are modelling a French house, looks good.👍
When you do your outdoor shots bring the aperture on the lens much further down. It'll make the background more in focus and sell the illusion of scale better.
I loved it! It seems so real, the stones especially, I believed, I really believed they were real. and when he places the diorama outside, with the sky... incredible. congratulations!
Amazing details and effects. I particularly like your stone weathering techniques and how you painted the cobblestones and wall a slightly different shade than the tavern walls. Small details like this go a long way towards the authentic look of the final piece. If you’ll permit me, there are a couple of things you could add to add even more realism: 1. Every good tavern/public house needs sign with their name on it. You could either make a free standing one on a wooden post post closer to road or make one that hangs off the side of the tavern on a bar or bracket. You could even give it the look of ornate cast iron, like something a blacksmith would have produced; 2. Candle or oil lanterns would be a nice touch too I think. Maybe 1 on each side oof the door or incorporate it into the overhead cast iron sign bracket idea. Just some ideas. Thanks for the entertaining video!
Thank you so much!!! I’m glad you like the stone work and the subtle color differences! And I totally agree with you suggestions, I planned on adding a sign, but I procrastinated and waited until the day of my outdoor photoshoot to design one. Long story short I just ran out of time! And the lighting would be awesome!! Looking back on my builds, I think they would all benefit from lighting elements, I just need to take the time to plan it out. Thanks again for your compliments, ideas, and for your support!
This turned out great. As much as I enjoy NightShift's channel, he's veered wayyyy into "comic book" territory lately and sacrificed most of the realism. This is perfect.
Thank you!! I absolutely love night shifts channel too! I appreciate the new approach to how he paints his dioramas a lot, it seems really difficult to pull off For me and my work, I always love taking my projects outside to see if they look realistic. Thanks again for all your support, and for watching!
I love your attention to detail. The moss, the weathering on the wood, the crumbled-up leaves.... these are all creative details that really add to the realism. Awesome piece, man!
I told my children, when they said they will burn my dollhouses when I die, to be really careful because I WILL be residing in some of them. They won't know which ones. Hahahaha
Thanks for the video really nice result and thanks for adding names of music you used thats very nice of you so people who like the music can look it up neat!
Just incredible! Well presented subject & video with an amazing end result - totally realistic. A lot of techniques to appreciate & learn from, scratch building at its very best… ☺👌🔝
I’m working on a video game, and one of the central locations is a medieval tavern. For some reason finding reference images for the walls was challenging. Weird angles, not the full view, etc etc. I decide to check UA-cam and I come across this, and it's EXACTLY what I was looking for! It's a great look at the texture of the plaster and structure of the wood frames. Great work! And thanks for
I’ve been busy coming up with ideas for an outside model made of weather resistant materials to build a scale model Tavern for my garden. I’m working on materials like cement, treated woods, tacks plastic (PVC) and so on. I really don’t know what I’m doing. Which helps
Just a tip , I built large scale balsa wood airplanes and I use wax paper between the plans and the wood. You can see the plans behind the wood and the glue won’t adhere to the wax paper. Great job on it, looks awesome
This is absolutely terrific work and a great tutorial. I recently used all your stone wall videos and built some stone pillars that came out great. Thank you very much.
Amazing work, great narrative. I appreciate the self awareness insight you add to the work and narrative. Utilizing real world materials is both practical and realistic, affordable to boot. Thank you for sharing your work and patience.
I aspire to settle down and have this much patience one day. I keep telling myself I'll start "once I get everything else done" (home reno projects, yard projects, etc)
Thanks for all of the great tips! I'm building a 1:12 dollhouse from scratch (first one) and can use all of the instruction I can get. ☺ Beautiful result!
Very nice work. A lot of old houses like this had a large beam protruding from under the ridge to attach a block and tackle for moving furniture upstairs.
Nice job. In hind sight you could have painted the plaster ivory when it was still masked by the tape after the plaster dried. Just to make your process even more streamlined, but I guessed whats the fun in that! Lol I have subscribed! Look forward to more vids!
I watch a lot of history videos so I really thought I just got another documental about some medieval discovery, then I saw your hand and got freaked out for a sec there lmao! Great build 😂
Im actually building the walls and floors plus a spiral staircase in my small scale. I've been going to a smoke shop in town and those cigar boxes that they are throwing away one of them has a think square piece of cider wood and they also have these four long corners to use for the roof. I highly recommend going to your local cigar shop and getting this free scrap wood material
Your building looks great! I am working on a 1/25th scale garage at the moment. I have a suggestion for you @1:19 - First start by taping the corners of your paper plans down to a wooden table top. Use a sheet of wax paper or even saran wrap over your building plans before you glue wood on top of them. That way, you are only gluing to the wax paper and you can easily pull off the wood from the paper plans. The wax paper is translucent and the saran wrap is transparent. Either way, you can see your plans through the medium you choose to use. - That's an old trick from building balsa wood airplanes. Also, you could use a wood stain from a hardware store on your balsa wood to change the color.
Thank you, and good luck with your garage! And those are some great tips that I’ll definitely try out in future projects, that you for sharing those with me!
minor remark on the title: The definition of a diorama is the static re-enactment of a scene *played out*. This being said, a diorama cannot exist without figures and without a "story" to tell, no matter how basic that is. What you have there is a diorama *setting*. And a pretty well done one at that. Congrats!
wow, that just looks fantastically realistic! Especially the stone wall at the bottom of the house - I've never seen it done so well and so realistically before! Great work!
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing masterpiece. I love your builds, and I am learning so much. I am currently working on replicating Stephen Kings Pet Sematary, and your techniques will be very helpful for that and also when it's time to create the barn for my 1930's farmhouse. I try to create my miniatures as realistic as I can, and I love detail. I love your channel!🥰❤️
That sir is a absolutely fantastic piece of art, it looks so real when filmed in the right setting, congratulations on a job very well done, best regards from Australia

Aww bless, you also walk out of here carrying pity on your shoulders regarding your unmet needs for attention.
@@michaelc3977 That...made no sense. Carrying pity on your shoulders would suggest that you have pity for something or someone other than yourself. You also don't typically say that you're carrying pity 'on your shoulders,' for that matter. You can carry a burden on your shoulders, but pity is just an emotion, not a metaphorical load.
As far as an unresolved need for attention goes, I'd quite rather not be noticed, thanks.

Yeah I was gonna say baking tools like an offset spatula would work really well 🤍
So cool you built an abandoned Steak & Ale! Brings me back to dinner with my family in 1986
Other than the place being empty, I would never be able to guess that it was a model if somebody showed me a picture.

"Man, that wood and plaster building looks so realistic and GREAT. What'd you use?"
"Wood and plaster."
Haha if I can use the real materials I often try to!
but the drywall was 1/32" thick/2"x2" sheets...the mudding and sanding alone would be brutal...
that is a cool project. Very realistic. kudo's

I work with 1/12th scale dollhouses! I absolutely love all the details! Makes me want to add a platform to my houses but they are heavy enough 🙄

Thank you so much for sharing this amazing masterpiece. I love your builds, and I am learning so much. I am currently working on replicating Stephen Kings Pet Sematary, and your techniques will be very helpful for that and also when it's time to create the barn for my 1930's farmhouse. I try to create my miniatures as realistic as I can, and I love detail.
I love your channel!🥰❤️
