The peeling wallpaper is fantastic!!!would work in a old house in a bathroom or kitchen. Or a attic!!!oh my..I have so many ideas running through my head now!!!thx..
No thank you for making it. I am drawn to abandoned places, your coffee shop looks so real it feels like I could walk in and explore, the music is perfect - adds to the atmosphere. Are you going to make more videos on this project? xx
Yes I will keep making videos on this project until it is completed. You can find my Abandoned Coffee Shop playlist through my channel and see all the videos I have made on it thus far. I think I have kept the same background music for each one. We'll call it the ACS's theme music :)
That top really makes your eyes look super blue! Very pretty...I am rewatching hoping to learn on repeat viewings but you know what they say about old dogs and new tricks lol!
Thank you so much!! There are already several videos in this series you can catch up on! You can check out my "Abandoned Coffee Shop Project" playlist on my channel to see them all :)
So I saw you do the same thing with the underground tunnel home, but here is where your technique started huh? Looks great BYW. So I am a semi retires tabletop RPG Game Master and some of your miniatures looks like something I would have liked to use as props back in my D&D days. It is also very inspireing and wants me to go back to be part of that again. Nice! :-)
Yep this is where I first used that technique😉 So when the Arty Games app popped up with that prompt I could immediately see the tunnel in my head lol! I love watching table top gaming channels like Black Magic Craft. I think both categories of miniatures can learn a lot from each other👍
These videos are great - I am working on an entire abandoned house and so I really appreciate these, thank you! I do have a question - can you talk a little bit about the structure underneath the wall paper. You said you created it from "pre-cut wood pieces" and poster board. Where did you find the wood pieces? How did you attach everything and then also, how did you paint the poster board? Would this work in a 1:12 house? Thanks again!
The wood pieces can be found at hobby stores. Usually near the railroad or model building sections. They are long thing skinny sticks (basswood) you can buy one at a time. I just cut them to size and laid them out similar to how they space 2x4 in real construction. They are sandwiched between the foam board and the poster board and I just ripped the poster board away to reveal the beams where I wanted them exposed. I didn't end up painting the poster board... I glued the wall paper on top of it. I hope that helps! And yes this works for 1:12
I always have a problem in 1/12 scale, making the water drips look small enough. I am considering using an alcohol spray and a tiny injection needle to make the drips come out smaller. What do you think?
This is fabulous Ara! I can't wait to see what you come up with next. I had a thought about maybe using some Yellow Ochre (or Yellow Oxide or Indian Yellow - one of the warm yellows anyway, with a hint of brown) on the wallpaper to suggest nasty old nicotine-stains from years of stinky smoke sticking to it. What do you think? I'm really gonna have to get my craft studio in order soon, 'creativity withdrawal' is causing me to live vicariously through other crafters. lol
Joanne Carroll great idea! Oil paints work great for that if you have them. They don't add extra wrinkles in the paper where you don't want them (like water based acrylics)... unless you want wrinkles! As in this case wrinkles would be no problem! Lol. Glad you enjoyed!
Hello again! I have another question - would you have a suggestion on how to do walls like this, but with wood underneath, instead of brick? I'm working on an abandoned dollhouse, but it is made from wood, not brick. Thanks!
Do you mean wood siding? Or wood instead of drywall? If you mean the wood instead of dry wall I would highly suggest this stream: ua-cam.com/video/IJVn4nAtfOs/v-deo.html It's a ceiling and not a wall but may give you some ideas.
Hi Ara! I got here by way of Jazza! Thought I would stop in and say Hai! Please google my name when you get a chance and I hope some of my Abandonscape work can help inspire your awesome creations! Thanks for sharing what you do!
found you after queen city mini's mentioned you...wow you and her are fantastic at your craft.
same!!! she is as amazing and creative as QCM's
The peeling wallpaper is fantastic!!!would work in a old house in a bathroom or kitchen. Or a attic!!!oh my..I have so many ideas running through my head now!!!thx..
I am so glad you found inspiration in my video!!! That always makes my week! -Ara
This is exactly the type of niche I've been searching for
You're so rad!!
Aww thanks😊 And welcome to the channel!!
@@BentleyHouseMinis Jazza hath sent me
I find this video so therapeutic. I can't stop coming back to watch it again and again.
I am so glad you enjoy this video! Watch as many times as you like. You're selling me on my own video and I want to go back an watch it too! Thanks ;)

can't wait to see what else you are going to do with the coffee shop. xx
Love the project and your choice of background music. The music matches your "theme"...
Thank you! Sometimes I find picking the music to be the hardest part of finishing the video! I am glad you liked it!
I am LOVIN' this project so far!! Very excited to watch the progress! 💜
Thank you I am having fun with it!! I can't wait to get back into it after the Christmas Season :)
Bentley House Minis Looking forward to it. Merry Christmas! And I hope you get many minis in your stocking. 🎄☺
lol I hope you do as well!! :) Merry Christmas!
Absolutely breathtaking idea stunning details and wow the design is outstanding 😍🥰❤️
Dy-no-mite! I use wallpaper Musilage(sp?) for paper and tea bags for aging along with watered down acrylic paints. You did a fantastic job! Love it!
I have aged paper with tea bags before (for art purposes) but never for miniatures. Great idea. Thank you!! :)
Ayra, would you ever consider making one of those miniature doll house kits and putting your own touches on them..?
That top really makes your eyes look super blue! Very pretty...I am rewatching hoping to learn on repeat viewings but you know what they say about old dogs and new tricks lol!
Aww thank you my friend!
This looks so awesome! You need an electric plug outlet with a broke plate cover.
ooh yes... great suggestion!
Just wanted to let you know that this comment was my inspiration for tomorrows video!! I hope you will stop by to check it out :)!!!
You are incredibly talented, I LOVE THIS. It literally looks like a real life scene mini-fied. So realistic - Ican’t get over it
Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate that💕
excellent tutorial! You certainly do know what you are doing.I learn lots of great tips and techniques from you. Thank you so much for sharing!
I am so glad you are enjoying the videos!! Thank you :)
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! FANTASTIC! You're truly an amazing artist!
Thank you so much😊💖💖
Of course I find this after I finished my room, guess I gotta try it again 😂
I loved it. ❤
This is great, well done. Looking forward to the next one

Bentley, muitíssimo obrigado por nos ensinar. Sou seu fã. Você é incrível!!!
New at your channel but loving it!! Really interesting and helpful, so thanks!!
Welcome! And thank you so much💖
Oh my gosh! This looks so real!!!
Sarah Longshore thank you! that is the highest compliment for a miniaturist!

@@BentleyHouseMinis I know right! :-D Um, I don't know this channel. Must check that out now. ;-)
That thicker outdoor paint could make some thick glue lines were the tiles came up. I really wanna try this out tbh.
Love this!
Yay! Love your channel!!
Thank you so much!! I appreciate it!
I love it !
You're incredibly talented!!! I love your videos. What dimensions are your walls and floor?
Incredible!!!

I know it’s been forever since be this video but how did you do the aged wall effect I’d love a tutorial on that!

that's great !
LOVE IT!!!

will that cutter work for the white foam board (from Dollar tree) or is it to thick 😏
It might work to score the material for you but I don't think it will cut all the way through. I wish it would though!
Very musty
Im making frankensteins lab i gave the bed hanging from the ceiling and everything but i didnt know what to do to the walls until now
I am glad it was helpful for you! Sounds like an awesome project👍
could you print out the wallpaper?
Sure! I chose to use scrapbook paper but you could print some out and use it in the same way.
@@BentleyHouseMinis THXS! i just started my first diorama proyect and your channel has helped me alot 💜
