1/76 scale commission - art piece title - a 'jarring' situation: I've been attempting to replicate the change in soil colours by painting in the gradients. I thought it would look cool... Thrown in the top image with a £1 coin to show the miniatureness of it 😁 I know you're still wondering what this diorama is all about... It's still so innocent... #nature #productivity #soildepth #soilcolour #commission #miniaturesize #miniaturist #plasticartist #artcommunity #plasticart #supportthemakers #floristwire #wireart #fromscratch #artist #handmademovement #byhand #scalemodel #mystery #makersgonnamake #wiretrees #scratchbuilder #art #sculptureart #instaartists #makersjourney #craftsmanship #selftaughtartist #miniature #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B8tJ3MdHQwE/?igshid=v3s9j7j89wyk

First opportunity for some detailing and I've built my own hinges for the door 👍 I folded some 0.5 mm plasticard in half and plastic welded it together. I then cut out the shape of the bracing and then did the same for the bracket making sure I fed a plastic rod through to create the hinge joint 👌 so far it's worked properly and I'm chuffed with it. I also scored in some wood grain with a flat headed screwdriver to add some depth. Once I fit the lighting at the weekend this will start to look more tree like 😁 #fairydoor #hinges #imagination #trees #commission #miniaturesize #miniaturist #plasticartist #makerscommunity #plasticart #supportthemakers #plasticadict #diorama #fromscratch #artist #handmademovement #byhand #magicdoor #doorinatree #makersgonnamake #creativeart #scratchbuilder #art #dioramaartist #instaartists #makersjourney #craftsmanship #selftaughtartist #miniature #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B9mgNc6nj2S/?igshid=1siwhmmotrn9u

Woodland fairy door commission: ABSOLUTELY BARKING MAD! 4 steps on my efforts with the bark! I built up the structure with some tin foil which I then wrapped in masking tape. Once covered I then mashed up some paper with PVA to give an uneven surface to the tree... I then covered with paper and using a mixture of filler and PVA I then covered this layer. This allowed me to score in the bark lines with a screwdriver and knife, anything that would make a mark. Once dry I will go back in and create some deeper cuts 🌳🚪 #fairydoor #treetrunk #imagination #bark #commission #miniaturesize #miniaturist #barkingmad #makerscommunity #plasticart #supportthemakers #plasticadict #diorama #fromscratch #artist #handmademovement #byhand #magicdoor #doorinatree #makersgonnamake #creativeart #scratchbuilder #art #maskingtape #nature #makersjourney #craftsmanship #selftaughtartist #miniature #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B946eqqHtXW/?igshid=ki6uw6u4512v

1/76 scale commission - art piece title - a 'jarring' situation: Oh it's coming together and I'm loving it! This is the sort of work I really do love, the miniature stuff. The hedges are made from a mixture of rubberised horse hair and some foliage... 👍 Happy Friday too, have the best weekend you can have! 🙌 #nature #productivity #staticgrass #shed #commission #miniaturesize #miniaturist #plasticartist #artcommunity #plasticart #supportthemakers #greenery #wireart #fromscratch #artist #handmademovement #byhand #scalemodel #mystery #makersgonnamake #path #scratchbuilder #art #sculptureart #instaartists #makersjourney #craftsmanship #selftaughtartist #miniature #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B80ZspNnLB5/?igshid=1rv5e3sl472l6

Woodland fairy door commission: At the weekend I finished spraying the undercoats for the three... This gave a really good base to apply layer upon layer of acrylics 👍 Specifically focussing on the root detailing here I used a white as a base coat for the roots and then used a sand colour to add a tint to the roots. To detail the area further I used some old scatter materials to create moss growing around the stairs and tree 👌 I love all the work I've done equally but I am currently really loving this one! #fairydoor #stairs #moss #roots #commission #miniaturesize #miniaturist #plasticartist #makerscommunity #plasticart #supportthemakers #plasticadict #diorama #fromscratch #artist #handmademovement #byhand #magicdoor #doorinatree #makersgonnamake #creativeart #scratchbuilder #art #staircase #instaartists #makersjourney #craftsmanship #selftaughtartist #miniature #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B-HzZMMHcbD/?igshid=ks6jfa9svruy

1/76 scale commission - art piece title - a 'jarring' situation: This was a very different diorama I was asked to do and this is because it holds a scenario, a jarring one at that... This might look like an innocent couple working on their allotment but if you look closely you'll discover the real scenario that's playing out... make from it what you can but it's what lies in the wheel barrow that indicates they are hidding their tracks... the whiteness could well be next... This is now completed and ready to ship to it's owner 👍 #allotments #coffeejar #staticgrass #shed #commission #miniaturesize #miniaturist #plasticartist #artcommunity #plasticart #supportthemakers #murdermystery #uptonogood #fromscratch #artist #handmademovement #byhand #scalemodel #whodoneit #makersgonnamake #countryside #scratchbuilder #art #sculptureart #instaartists #makersjourney #craftsmanship #selftaughtartist #miniature #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B9JX0wVHxGM/?igshid=jl9fntq1tsbl

1/76 scale commission - art piece title - a 'jarring' situation: a first full look at the mysterious diorama commission I'm working on... It's been a while since I've worked in 1/76 scale, that's roughly 4mm to 1ft... Also to note it's the first time I've had three projects on the go at the same time, there's another commission starting soon too so watch out!!! 😁 #nature #productivity #wheelbarrow barrow #shed #commission #miniaturesize #miniaturist #plasticartist #artcommunity #plasticart #supportthemakers #floristwire #wireart #fromscratch #artist #handmademovement #byhand #scalemodel #mystery #makersgonnamake #wiretrees #scratchbuilder #art #sculptureart #instaartists #makersjourney #craftsmanship #selftaughtartist #miniature #miniatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B8iYEB6n1d8/?igshid=2mdjy7be75us
