WW2 DOGFIGHT DIORAMA-/How to Make/DIY

Рет қаралды 74,977

Жыл бұрын

This is my diorama of a dogfight scene from World War Two.
I used a plastic model kit from Revell and created a fight between a Spitfire Mk V
and a German Bf109-G10.
I created the sea from polystyrene foam, aluminum foils and acrylic colors/materials.
For the explosion I used a battery operated LED strip and cotton balls
which I painted with acrylic colors.
I hope you like this diorama and see you again soon.
All the best

@Quickened1 Жыл бұрын

Your attention to detail is second to none! I have one suggestion to make your future dioramas a bit easier to accomplish. I noted that the wires you use are pretty thick. I believe you could use much thinner wire, since LEDs pull such little current. You could literally use wires almost as thin as human hair! Thus, you could drill smaller holes, and they will be much easier to conceal... This turned out incredible as usual!

@4THECRAFT Жыл бұрын

Thanks. This was the thiner wire I could find in my local store and it was indeed a bit thick for the scale of the plane. I will try to find thiner wires on the web

@user-ni2zo5zo3c 3 ай бұрын

Congratulazioni, Signore! This resulted in a far better display than I initially had anticipated. Eccellente! I have been contemplating displays rather similar to this. I aldo would employ 1:24th-, 1:32nd-, and 1:48-scale models for the far greater level of detail, as well as a couple 1:72nd-scale miniatures in the background, to create a forced perspective diorama. Your simulation of “smoke” and “flame” gives me a possible answer to a riddle on how one securely can support the largest replicas. One need only mask or obscure them! Grazie! Another approach I would use would be to borrow from motion picture production methods the Chapman Crane, wherein one obscures the cradling structure through 1) placing it behind the figure or object it holds in place, then 2) covering with clothing or other accoutrements germane to the presentation the fitted apparatus supporting the subject that remains in view. I also would motorise the propeller to create as realistic the effect as possible. I understand that one would need to substitute a duplicate propeller made of strong, resilient metal, as the polystyrene over time is likely to suffer wear from the stress of momentum. Again, a remarkable presentation!

Amazing work looks super good with led effect very realistic . I would have tilted the spitfires wing a little banking a bit more left turning opposite the out of control right bank of the BF 109 , really good ,like its flying through the smoke , be good to find a way to add more 3d water spray physics trailing the BF's right wing and back from start make it spray much higher even at start of water strike . Great work thank you for sharing .

Just for context the German plane is the BF109 G-10 and the British plane is the spitfire mk.v

@ericsainte290 11 ай бұрын

The result is excellent, but a small error is to be pointed : the wings would never explode or burn like this as the fuel tanks on the 109 was below and behind the pilot seat, the German pilot literally seated on an incendiary bomb 😅 it's on the Spit and hurricanes that fuel tanks were at the joining of the wings and fuselage a d above the engine in front of the windshield (in the hurricane's case). You can find technical drawings of thison internet.

Just because I want to be the asshole of the day, I'd say that the Battle of Britain was in 1940. The Bf109 G10 in this set, easy to recognize because of its Erla Haub canopy, was from the Gustav series of the fighter, introduced later starting in mid-1942. Sucks that a known manufacturer like Revell couldn't manage to buid a realistic kit about the Battle of Britain lol. At least the Spit Mk.V is time accurate. BTW, your work is still amazing =)
