I love modelling - scenery, model rail, terrain, sci fi, military - and I want to share with you how you can make your own scenes like these.
Scenery can look hard to do but it isn’t and on each video I’m going to show you how I make these stunning dioramas.
I post a full diorama build at least once a month so if you want to know more subscribe and hit the bell button so you know when the next video is up.

Hi Kathy, I'm about to embark on a major project on my layout, namely building a TMD for my Deltics. I was wondering how I could get that Tarmac and concrete look. This seems like a great idea. I'll give it go. Thanks for the video.
Glad I could help and good luck!
Where did you get the Precision Ice and snow from?
They have apparently been discontinued now which is a shame. Try microballoons from someone like AK Interactive instead for the snow.
Wonderfull
Thank you!
It kind of reminds me of the shuttlecraft from the old Battlestar Galactica series, I like the version with the small wings !
I think the inspiration comes from that era and a lot of the designs were similar.
This is sooo niche. I've been wracking my mind to get this! Bless you!!!
I really struggled too and I still think there is work to be done on a really good technique... I wonder whether the newer colour shift paints might be worth a try for it.
You really need to change how you think about things to properly make use of 3d printing and 3d design. Your entire life you hear that custom made plastic things are not something that you can make at home (or even make at all, unless you have injection molding machinery and the machinery to create custom tooling for them) But the second you get a 3d printer and some 3d design software you suddenly CAN make custom plastic objects with very little effort. It takes a long time to "unlearn" the whole "no, you can't make that" and to teach yourself "yes, I CAN make that at home, in only a few hours". That was and still is the hardest part of 3D printing, at least for me. The "3d printing mindset".
That is so true but also the corollary - I printed a 3D wooden door for a project then made it out of wood. The real wood version looked way better! But now I have 3d printers - I do 3D print everything!
What if you dont have an airbrush..
You can generally hand paint instead but it isn’t as easy as using an airbrush for some paint finishes.
Hi, what brand of paints do you recommend, I thinking for your tarmac and scenery. Thank you
I use whatever I have to hand. There’s so many new brands out now but I’m still using up my excellent Vallejo for hand painting although for large scenery I either use spray cans or artists’ acrylics.
@@KathyMillatt Thanks Kathy, I'm very new to all of this and not typically crafty, so what with this and railway electronics it's all a steep learning curve. Now to find a video on on making a muddy gravelly wasteland type area. :-)
Legend kathy.
Thanks!
I'd love to have my Rust Ravens take valuable loot from here
There’s a lot of loot…
@@KathyMillatt sounds perfect for Stargrave!
Absolutely brilliant!!!!! Both Mrs tac and I were entranced watching you build it! We were actually staying in Y Felinheli in the beginning of the year, and watching you build this fabulous model we were eagerly picking out details on the quayside that we recognised - thank you......
That’s so cool that you could recognise it from staying there!
Excellent video, thanks for the simple step by step guide.
Glad it was helpful!
Do you share the .stls of the light channels you designed? Do you share your arduino lighting code?
I haven’t I’m afraid because I had to do manual fettling afterwards to get it to work and I haven’t gone back and sorted the files.
@@KathyMillatt Well, darn. Remember, the open source community is built for this kinda thing. We keep improving each others designs! Hopefully, you will reconsider posting.
wow great job!
Thanks!
I LOVE THIS STUFF
Thank you so much!
I not long got into 3d printing (elegoo Mars 3) I been having problems with mine but think it's because of the "island" as you said. As for resin, I use a washable resin personally. My issue I'm finding is placing them damn supports especially especially when I'm printing in N Scale lol
Supporting is an art form. I get my models professionally supported now as they do it way better than I can!
@@KathyMillatt yes it is, it's part of the learning curve. I have thousands of stl files, some I'll probably never use too. If you need any let me know.
@@KathyMillatt on a side note I was made aware of you from great model railway challenge show and searched you here. I'm a brit in USA building an n scale uk/usa based layout. I order my uk stuff from uk sites or find uk stl files. Btw, is there another season planned as I love that show.
I’ve heard nothing for years on a new series I’m afraid.
@@KathyMillatt such a shame. Some amazing modelling out there. I'm actually using couple their ideas too ie movie themes, best of british, etc. I felt sorry for their time frame they had, 3 days...wow
As a lara fan since the 90's, this is absolutely fantastic. Id of given up at the 3D stage as im just getting into that for my layout and its so confusing for me. Amazing job Kathy
Thank you! I love doing Tomb Raider inspired diorama
I just recently stumbled upon your channel because I’m about to paint up my own clones. I just wanted to say that I really like the videos that you make!
Thank you so much!
Hi my name is Kathy and I'm addicted to foam lol
🤣🤣🤣
Ah! Now that is a good reason. Thank you, Kathy. Good work!
Thank you!
I hadn't watched this marvellous inspirational video for about three years, but when I watched it again this afternoon and was reminded of just how many times Kathy had to keep tipping off the excess landscaping materials, brushing away the flocks, powders, lengths of static grass off the lovely beck she'd just made I couldn't help wondering... If she made a similar diorama again would she finish ALL the landscaping work BEFORE pouring the resin water into the beck towards the end of the process, perhaps simply finishing off the whole thing with the reeds at the edges of the beck and the mossy stones? Is there a good reason that she poured the resin into the beck at such an early stage? I don't know the answer, (and it's not meant to be a leading question), I just wonder why she chose to do things in the order she did.
Resin creeps and I once had it creep through my grass across a whole diorama so now I’m paranoid about making sure it stays in the river by doing it first. Plus then I can cover up the inevitable creep with grass.
Oodles of rainy day atmosphere. Well done!
Thank you so much!
Wow! This looks amazing! 🤩 X, weldone😊 x
Thank you! 😊
May I ask 1 question to star wars fan?
Of course.
@KathyMillatt can it fit 1/18 scale other words 3.75 figures?
@@tristonhuesman9366 It's made for 1/48 but you could scale it up as it is a 3D print. It would be big though!
@@KathyMillatt thank you
Glad I'm not the only one to have trouble with technology
It’s always fun isn’t it!
Keep a marble in the kettle, In the boiling water the marble will rattle about and clean the scale from the sides.
I think that’s what this ball of metal does. It certainly helps a lot.
Ridiculous good
Thank you!
Hi Kathy, missed the live again, working night-shift as usual, but thanks for taking the time out again, I'll watch it through the week, take care, all the best from Scotland, Stephen.
Thanks Stephen.
太神奇! 情景太像真!
Thank you so much!
Weymouth Harbour was really cool. There are some videos on youtube of it in operation, if you can find the right search terms. They used to have to bump (manhandle, not smash into with the train) cars out of the way that visitors had parked overlapping the tracks.
That must have been fun to see. As long as it wasn’t your car!
TT:120 really appeals to me, and may well get me back into railway modelling, as it's the same scale as European TT. I have a cunnign scheme forming for a small layout based on a Brigadoon-like island that appears in the North Sea every now and then as part of the ancient Dogger Land. When it appears, sometimes it's connected to Germany, sometimes it's connected to East Anglia, so there are bits of German stuff, and bits of English stuff that the locals "acquire" when Dogger Isle next disappears from the mainlands. So I can use British TT and European TT together. I quite like the idea of a British post box next to a German 'phone box: it'll annoy purists, but they've never been to Dogger Isle, have they?🤣🤣🤣
Purists actually enjoy being annoyed as it makes them feel superior. As long as you enjoy your hobby, that’s all that matters. Sounds like a cool idea and allows you to show off what you have in a fun way.
Hi Kathy!
Hi!
Sorry I missed this one Kathy. Scale is so overlooked in the wargaming community, which makes it hard for their buildings to be used for real world purposes.
It really is but I know that a lot of creators pick a real scale to use when doing vehicles and buildings just to make it easier for themselves.
Awesome . 👍👍👍
Really love this! Id love to see you model an AT-TE
I have one printed. I just need to find the time to assemble and paint it.
That terrain does look good
Thanks Digger. Very quick to paint too.
Sadly I can't watch that show because of location and I'm not about to pay for a vpn
That is sad but I know a lot of people found it originally on YT.
Love love love this (despite not caring for the prequels) Please wear a mask when spraying Kathy! I know you were standing upwind but… treat yourself ❤
Thanks! I’ll found the prequels grew on me as an era after watching the Clone Wars. They made Anakin bearable, almost a character I like!
Nice one Kathy. They look great. 👍
Many thanks!
Your short videos are great. I don’t have time for the longer ones but I learn a lot from you in 5-10 minutes. This quick one showed us how to do it and what paint to use. Complete, simple, and effective. Thank you.
@@tomstuart2652 Thanks for the feedback - it's great to hear that they are useful and have enough detail in them.
Thanks Kathy.
Love this, ….off to buy some sealant now
Good luck!
I haven’t seen any dioramas to do with the 422nd siege troopers, if your planning to do another diorama, possibly a 422nd one (but don’t worry if you don’t, I’m sure you got some brilliant ideas already planned out! I’ll be watching a lot more of this channel, and I fear my hours of the day will be.. well, stuck to this channel 😂
Thanks! I think a few clone force 99 dioramas are next when the KS ends.
Watched your ahsoka darth Vader diorama and now this, and I’m in love with this channel 🙏
Thank you!
Guys I only watched the clone wars series a few years back because I thought it would ruin the episodes 1-6, so I put it off. Whenever someone asks me what my biggest regret is that is what I tell them. I’ve fallen in love with Star Wars 1000% more and all the clones, syndicates, pirates, sith, Jedi, and the clankers. I got so emotional during this scene I literally cried, I’m an 18 yr old guy, I don’t do much of it, but that and I don’t wanna spoil anything so imma say ahsokas lil situation, that also made me cry too, so sad 😫
I fell in love with Star Wars with the Clone Wars - there’s so much to it!
Those guys commenting on Vader’s lightsaber being blue must feel really clever until they watch the series 🤣
So true!
Awesome
amazing! I do have a question, why the alcohol and water mix over the sand?
It’s to break the surface tension so the glue sinks in. Otherwise it can bead on the surface.
