We all need a little haven to return to again and again. This is mine - or a little version of it!
I've wanted to make a beautiful coastal diorama for some time. The Cove is what I came up with after about 6 hours of modelling. It's in a very miniature scale. I might get round to making one in HO scale at some point, but here I just wanted to build the entire scene in the space of a few centimetres.
Water effects are always fun to do, and this video will show you how I created model waves and surf. It will also show you my method for making a realistic beach.
I always enjoy making model rocks. You could adapt the techniques I used here for use in building rocks for wargaming terrain or model railways.
I hope you enjoy watching me making this realistic beach diorama.
In this video I use several products that were gifted to me to use in my videos:
Vegetation/plants by Diorama Presepe (https://www.dioramapresepe.com, https://www.instagram.com/dioramapresepe.com_official/, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeSXdhhHytnv64NP6smsQwg).
Freehand Router by Hot Wire Foam Factory: https://hotwirefoamfactory.com
CFS Fibreglass have gifted me resin products in the past, but the resin featured in this video is stuff I bought from them previously: https://www.cfsnet.co.uk
Many of the materials and tools I use come with safety instructions. Please always read and follow these rather than simply copy what you see me or other people doing.
