Hi Guys, In this video I build a simple Sci Fi Diorama that can be the basis for many different types of build. I explain some simple techniques and go over some of the materials that will really help any beginner. If you have any questions about materials or techniques, feel free to give me a shout in the comments.

  1. Chesley Bonestell would approve of this, no doubt about it. I owe you a great deal of thanks for such amazing inspiration your work creates. Ive become a better diorama builder thanks to you.

  2. As always a great video worth waiting for. Not just technical things but philosophical things to inspire creativity. Everything here from the video to the music is perfect. Especially love the space and sci-fi theme. No one is as enjoyable to learn from as you. Eager for your next project.

  3. Yup I went and researched those sulphur pits – and you've done an amazing job of recreating that landscape. I thought, at first, the white texture paste was a bit on the heavy side but with a little yellow dry brush (i think it was?) the white became a salty crust that looked as brittle as the real thing! And the 'receeding into the depths' effect worked perfectly. The low level camera work really brought the scene to life too. Well done, but you've left me wondering the fate of those three poor scientists. . .

  4. @Creative Cuts. Just discovered your channel mate as I'm getting back into the art after a long break from it, your channel is helping me rehone my skills after 2 decades of no scale model building

  5. I've been struggling to get back into my terrain building, and I want to say your message about imagination at the end really struck a cord with me. I've been watching so many tutorials trying to get my spark back, and the thing I'm currently making is basically exactly what I saw in a video, but I can't find it in me to care about it. And I think it's because it's not mine, I don't feel like I'm making something new, and ultimately that's what I actually enjoy about making terrain.

  6. How do you have such a small channel?! You have a welcoming instructional tone and demeanor and a smooth, respectful voice, such that I halfway expect you end every other sentence with, "Master Bruce." Love your channel, Alfred. I've subscribed and set up notifications!

  7. I'm just starting out on this hobby so your videos are a great help! Thanks also for not speeding them up. I can't watch fast moving things as they make me dizzy. Looking forward to watching more!
