Video tutorial: How to make a scale model WW2 Pacific Jungle diorama

My latest video is an in-depth look at how I created the Pacific jungle scenery and groundwork for my Japanese Kurogane diorama (there's an index of all previous blog posts about it here). Pacific WW2 dioramas are significantly different to European theatre dioramas, and successfully building one requires a different mindset and preparation.


There are still some elements of my diorama that I'm not 100% satisfied with, but overall I feel it is a great little piece: it tells a vivid story, and the diorama groundwork is an essential part of that.

In my video I go into detail such as the colour of volcanic soil, the found objects I used, and which brands I used for elements like static grass and moss. It's diorama nerd-tastic!

Video is embedded below, but in case that doesn't work, here is the link:
