If you liked this video then you'll definitely want to check out the *'Working with Resin (Rivers & Oceans)'* Playlist, it has all the tutorials that have water features in the scene and will give you a really good understanding of all the tips and techniques when working with resin: ua-cam.com/play/PLA1bRusvoCbR1h9Xz5DwW9AuyiaTvzw6B.html
If you want to go the extra mile of details: just add a bit of the white snow mass around the feet of the bear and behind the rocks (downstream) where air bubbles would be sucked down into the water. Overall, just amazing! Your work is stonishing me again and again.
@@Seelenschmiede Great tip! I will be working on a snorkeling scene in the not too distant future and I'll be trying to simulate bubbles coming out from the snorkeler as they float to the surface... I might give your idea a shot and see how it looks 😉
Hello im Juan Pablo Automotive Engineer. Nice to meet you, excuse me I would like to help with this fantastic passion. Could you consider me to design objects or whatever thing you need to print in 3D? Thanks and greetings from Mexico City. :)
Just an idea, or maybe a challenge: Could you attempt a diorama that is set completely under water? I know there's an issue with needed to pour a rather large volume of resin, but the idea of a shipwreck diorama or something along those lines is very interesting!
Hey Luke, you should do a diorama of the Australian bushfires to raise awareness and maybe get people to donate, or have the proceeds of the video go to the RFS or something. Love your work mate, keep it up
In the nicest possible way i watch these when i want to sleep, your voice is just right to make me feel sleepy but i watch the videos a second time to actually see it
I just realized that he’s doing this whole thing with it facing away from him, basically not looking at the “front.” That is so crazy! And to think I thought he couldn’t get any more talented
Ben Bosanic I mean. All his model train layouts should be able to connect into one layout. Either that or he’s more than likely made another one for model club earlier on
@@BoulderCreekRailroad A few weeks ago, in german tv was a series of an extreme fisherman - fishing everywhere in the world. He said, from northeastern australia westwards the continent started an invasion of poisonous toads, which had been brought from south america long years ago and it's impossible to stop them. Is that true? 😳😳😳 Please excuse my bad english, i'm trying my best
@@nick111 Read the other comments mate your doing better than most. Also yes, their a pest. I believe they were intentionally introduced to combat the insects that bothered the crops, however the insects attacked a few feet above ground making it nothing more than a disaster
Luke every video with bubble popping with a torch “ just make sure you don’t set your trees on fire” Me “ he’s done it at least once” Also me: I wanna see that blooper!
Seems like we haven't heard from him since last year. As always a lovely build Luke, and a question have you ever thought of doing a space scene like moonbase alpha in space 1999?.
I remeber finding a love for painting with Bob Ross, and quickly became and artist. Here I find that passion in dioramas with Luke. Hopefully soon I'll actually be building alongside you!
My favourite detail in this is how the ripple effect on the surface of the water projects ripple light patterns onto the river bed exactly as it would do in real life. Stunning
lol... that would probably make for a very interesting diorama scene! Maybe it would raise awareness with respect to the bush fires at the moment in Australia
My brother (12, almost 13) and me (20) are just now getting into scenery building together. We always like making art together and we've had this on our bucket list for a long while and you are one of our biggest inspirations and learning channels. Thank you for the in depth explaining and amazing building!!!!!
When I was watching him giving some of the last touches I laughed out in amazement in how realistic his model is. Man is he something. He is giving me ideas to start modeling.
With all the negative things going on right now, I’m really thankful for channels like yours. Really inspiring to watch you create beautiful scenes like this one.
I love this series (I’ve been rewatching all of them recently)! I think you should make a classic small town ski resort or a river scene with a fly fisherman
I usually watch diorama videos to fall asleep so i never see the outcome because im long gone. Tonight i drank an energy drink to close to bedtime and couldnt sleep. So i watched this from start to finish, this is HANDS DOWN the best diorama i have seen on youtube. I cant believe how real everything looks! Deffinetly deserved my follow!
I find it fascinating to watch an artist at work, who takes the time to explain in detail, what & why they do things. This is almost like watching a Bob Ross video.
Been looking forward to this one! Well, I've seen it actually from your Patreon, but I was looking forward to it! Stunning execution. Congrats, Luke. You are the guv'nor. Merrick
Thanks Merrick, the water scenes are certainly a lot of fun to make! You too have some of the best water scenes I've seen! Keep up the hard work and I'm really interested to see if you do some wargaming terrain, I used to make warhammer terrain when I was younger... it was terrible but it was still a lot of fun to build!
I'll probably be focussing on display bases as I don't have room for terrain, but I do have some hills I made and can now cast in resin. Just waiting for this dratted laryngitis to settle down!
Oh yeah being sick is no fun at all, I hope it settles down for you very soon! I watch a lot of LukesAPS and The Terrain Tutor who do a lot of wargaming terrain, it's been so long since I did any wargaming modelling but I still find it very interesting 😉
@@BoulderCreekRailroad cheers, Luke. Yeah, I like those guys, too. Mike from Terranscapes was my favourite wargame terrain builder. Sadly he's no longer making videos. His oceans and modular boards were captivating.
Luke: I am American, but I want to say I am really sorry about the situation in Australia and I hope everything gets better. My thoughts go out to you!!!
@@shannonoleson7880 There is different information i english and polish Wikipedia. In polish version (my native language) there is said, that it was also filmed in Matanuska-Susitna Borough in Alaska.
@@MTWODZU - As far as I can tell the filming production of "Northern Exposure" was never brought to the Valley. The fictional town of Cicely was inspired by Telkeetna, Alaska, which is the base for expeditions to Denali. I was incorrect about the filming location. The opening scene was filmed in Roslyn but the show was filmed in Redmond, Washington. While parts of Washington State has the same look/feel as Juneau and Ketchikan, it does not look like the Valley. I spent 20 year in Alaska (Soldotna and Anchorage). "Northern Exposure" did right by Alaska, mostly, except it still looks too warm.
This is incredible. It's amazing how you bring a small scene to life. To be able to see under the water from the side just adds another dimension to it.
Hey Luke. I love watching your videos, they're extremely relaxing and I'm picking up tips for when I eventually have the space to do a model railroad. Having lived in Alaska I thought it was awesome that you did an Alaskan River diorama. I think a Muskeg diorama would also be awesome and perhaps a good challenge for you, as it's a bit different from your normal type of diorama in terms of ground cover. If you'd like, I have some pictures I took from a hiking trip through a Muskeg in Juneau, Alaska during the spring I can send to you to use as source material/inspiration. Just let me know, and keep up the great work!
Hi Luke Below in the comments section someone's suggested to try a setting completely underwater . I've had a similar idea but it goes with some of my childhood starting with ..... USOS SeaView from " Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea " being a wrecked hull . And now something from the future .... " The SeaQuest DSRV " above and back as the location of the SeaView 's location is discovered . Yea????? Big plans for a little space .
Omg! This has got to be the best one yet for me.. man the detail in the underwater when ur showing it at the end is just crazy!! I showed it to people at work and they couldn’t believe it wasn’t real! This is just absolutely amazing to me! I wish I had this!
Man, your stuff looks so damn real, it's truly amazing. Also, the inclusion of ''we'' as you make statements and note actions is great, gives a small sense of inclusion.
Ur Litterally one of the best Diorama builders I have seen so far. I love ur sense of detail and the way u explain what u do for dummies like me... Thumbs up!
Out of all the videos I’ve seen you telling us what your using is super important and I seriously appreciate you for that. I’m just starting off and mine isn’t the best but I’m proud of the work I put into it. With the info you gave me I think I could make very realistic D&D boards now. My mountain looks amazing I used foam clay and aluminum foil and of course an air brush. But I had a hard time with other parts. So just thank you dude
I am continually impressed by how realistic your creations are! One thing I would add, as someone from the U.S. and as someone who has spent a lot of time backpacking in Colorado, California, the greater Rocky Mountain West, and even in Canada - river rocks in North America are often actually quite varied in their color, depending on the geology of the surrounding area. I often see riverbeds which contain rocks which vary from salmon colored, to tan, to blue grey. I don't know how practical it would be for you to have multicolored river rocks, but thought I would offer this suggestion anyway.
Luke replied to a couple other comments suggesting this and he said that it was a great idea, so there’s a good chance we’ll see a video on it sometime soon (may take longer than usual ones bc I don’t think he’s really done any fires in his dioramas on UA-cam besides like a fireplace)
I have an acreage and I keep watching the woodsy type ones. I am slowly collecting supplies and bits and pieces of things. Someday I will make a diorama of my property. Something I have wanted to do for a long time. I am so glad I found this channel. The sceneries are amazing!
I had a funny moment a little while ago when I was shopping for acrylic paint but all the proper brands of modeling paint were too expensive for me at the time, so i go into ned's and my mum says why are we going to all these different shops and brands aren't they just the same and i say i watch BCR with Luke Towan and he uses specific brands of paint and seams to get good results from them. So i end up picking up a pack of the exact same brand and type of paint he used for the base coat in this video. 😅 P.s. are you from Adelaide? Kind regards Reuben.
Came across this channel by accident. I do not make models, have never made models, could not comprehend making models, but I love these videos! Stellar work sir.
why is this video in my feed? i cant afford to go to the Alaskan Wilderness, let alone build an Ultra-Realistic River there. and, dont they have enough rivers already?
I'm so glad you made this video/diorama, and I'm so glad I found it! I've been contemplating make an HO scale shelf diorama of an Alaskan Railroad locomotive crossing a trestle over a river, based on a photo I found on the internet for my 3 year old Grandson who lives in Alaska. It might cost me a fortune to build and ship from the Gulf Coast to Alaska, but I think it will be a great piece for his bedroom wall until he and his baby brother get a little older and can incorporate it into a larger diorama. The trick will be in creating depth in only a 6" wide shelf, but I think I can do it with rising mountains and forced perspective by scaling down the trees as they rise away from the foreground. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Yes, because I can do this just as well as him! LOL!!!

Just an idea, or maybe a challenge:
Could you attempt a diorama that is set completely under water? I know there's an issue with needed to pour a rather large volume of resin, but the idea of a shipwreck diorama or something along those lines is very interesting!
Oh what would be more like him is a flooded forest scene like in brazil
I would absolutely love to see something like this
thalasso hobbyer does only those kind of dioramas
yeah that coukd be cool
That'd be cool to make a fish tank but I'm not sure how good that is for the fish.. I think it's probably fine but I'm no expert.
Hey Luke, you should do a diorama of the Australian bushfires to raise awareness and maybe get people to donate, or have the proceeds of the video go to the RFS or something.
Love your work mate, keep it up
That's a really great idea!
Love that idea!!
raise awareness of the threat of Doomers aka arsonists and environmentalists?
That's a great idea...
I say "aye"
I actually tried building my own using Luke's tips and it turned out pretty awesome. Lot of lessons learned but Luke really does a great job
Pics?
Two legend Lukes:
I. Skywalker
2. Towan.
Yup pretty much
Towan is no. 1

The water was done so well I could practically Hear the finished product
I just realized that he’s doing this whole thing with it facing away from him, basically not looking at the “front.” That is so crazy! And to think I thought he couldn’t get any more talented
Imagine if all these little projects connected into on big one
Ben Bosanic I mean. All his model train layouts should be able to connect into one layout. Either that or he’s more than likely made another one for model club earlier on
he primarily does model railroads so im sure these all probably connect to a big scene for the railway
Towan Town? ☺️
These scenery models aren’t uploaded very often but every time they are always amazing and done properly keep it up
I find these videos so damn relaxing, its so satisfying to watch something so tiny be put together and come out so perfect.
Thanks Felicity, glad you enjoy watching the videos 😃
These videos are the perfect stress reliever.
you should really try to do something fantasy or like sci-fi diorama, that would be cool
Pixel Hearts... that is a great idea !
Star wars or something hehe
Thanks Luke,
hope you and your family are doing well during the outbreak

My favourite detail in this is how the ripple effect on the surface of the water projects ripple light patterns onto the river bed exactly as it would do in real life. Stunning
Very nice Luke, I love the way it turned out. That would look great with a tank in there lol.
WOOHOOOO....scenery!
Be careful with the salmon epoxy btw...some 5min epoxy resins (actually most of them) turn really yellow when cured.
Actually, the "not accidentally putting your trees on fire" gave me the idea of a diorama where the scene is set after a forest fire 😉
lol... that would probably make for a very interesting diorama scene! Maybe it would raise awareness with respect to the bush fires at the moment in Australia
@@BoulderCreekRailroad EXACTLY what I was thinking
That would be very cool. You could also do one of a forest a few years after a fire, with burnt husks of trees with small bushes growing between them.
Somehow adding a helicopter with a water bucket would be amazing to a scene such as this.
thought the exact thing🤣
Luke is definitely the bob ross of model making. And I thing that’s awesome
One of the few UA-camrs where I actually get excited when I'm notified of a upload lol

Ye cool idea

Hi Luke
Below in the comments section someone's suggested to try a setting completely underwater .
I've had a similar idea but it goes with some of my childhood starting with .....
USOS SeaView from " Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea " being a wrecked hull .
And now something from the future .... " The SeaQuest DSRV " above and back as the location of the SeaView 's location is discovered .
Yea?????
Big plans for a little space .
It looks great Luke! There is so much to see and i love the Salmon in the stream. Thanks for taking the time to make this great tutorial.
3 minutes in and I'm already hoping he uses the word "Mod Podge." What is it about that name that's so satisfying? 🤔

I'm so glad you made this video/diorama, and I'm so glad I found it! I've been contemplating make an HO scale shelf diorama of an Alaskan Railroad locomotive crossing a trestle over a river, based on a photo I found on the internet for my 3 year old Grandson who lives in Alaska. It might cost me a fortune to build and ship from the Gulf Coast to Alaska, but I think it will be a great piece for his bedroom wall until he and his baby brother get a little older and can incorporate it into a larger diorama. The trick will be in creating depth in only a 6" wide shelf, but I think I can do it with rising mountains and forced perspective by scaling down the trees as they rise away from the foreground. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
