Hey guys! I made a new Diorama video, and it's fully enclosed this time like a real diorama haha.

Thanks for the Sinopterus comments. The life size animals are my favorite to have hanging around my home 😄 . I hope everyone is doing well.

Wonderful work, you did there! It reminded me of Works from avatar_irimali @irimali. The thick vegetation and Atmosphere. And no Distractions.
Editing was fantastic aswell!

There is just one thing, that just happens with this Video in my Case: There are a lot of visual artefacts in the Video. At first i thought it has something to do with my GPU, but it is just this Video, where this happens.


Libraraptor

Stunning work!  And so relaxing and inspiring to watch your video!

What with your artistic wizardry and the enchantment of the background music, the effect is mesmerizing. Just magical, really. Thanks for the invitation to participate in this sub-creative process!

Thank you. Irimali'a dioramas were always my favorite so that's cool to hear!

Oh that doesn't sound good, do you have a time stamp where it happens? I haven't heard that from anyone else

Beautifully done.  (And I had no problems with the video just now.)

This is really amazing! I love all the time you details.  The moss, the fungus,i the flowers.  It looks like a real old growth forest :)

I Sculpted an Acrocanthosaurus. I haven't done a theropod in a while and this is the first one I've sculpted in a roaring pose so that was a fun challenge. It's 1:40 scale of course, about 10" long.

Hey! I painted Lone Trike Studios Aquilops kit. Simon sent it to me before I made the Acro but I wasn't able to get the paints needed until now. It's surprisingly light weight due to it being a hollow roto-cast. It's been raining like crazy but it was sunny for three days, perfect timing to take it out and get some final shots. I thought this would be a short video but there turned out to be lots to do!

Wonderful work. That model by Lone Trike is masterfully done and in the calm pose a true stunner. Your excellent paint job really does this justice. Thanks for another insight in your techniques.

Shonisaurus

It looks like an animal come to life, well a dinosaur that is a kind of animal. My congratulations. That painting on sculpture has been a difficult job to emulate.

Dusty Wren

So, the paint job on this is absolutely gorgeous (and using Silly Putty as a mask is such a good idea, I'm keeping that in mind for future projects).

I really want to give a shout out to your video skills, though. The camera movements, the lighting, the editing, the way you frame the steps of the process--they all come together to make a really engaging final product. It's especially impressive that you manage to tell a cohesive story without a voiceover. I'm sure you'll get a lot of praise for the figure itself (and you deserve it!), but good video production often gets overlooked, so I wanted to make sure someone mentioned that to you as well.
