Got any bark? Well if you find yourself in a forest and someone's scalping fallen trees it could be me, otherwise its Moe. Moes Tabeltop Tavern focuses in the area of rockery and implementing building structures into his dioramas, his gritty buildups of rock formations is brilliantly created with mainly bark and formed with appealing concepts to the eye. Carefully constructed the ground textures and his implementation of vegetation really boosts his work. At 28/32mm scale the work really deserves respect and applause.

Pong Van / pics_artdioramastudio
Pong Van or PicsArt- The overall colours schemes he uses pull into life dark and wet forests and jungle scenes with fantastic layering techniques, terrain build up and foliage is unbelievable. His choice of vegetation and implementation and general concept flys under the radar of many of us. His work deserves wayy more interest than he currently gets and im in awe of the skills that man has.
Oliver Späth
Oliver Spaths is one of those gods of concept mastery in dioramas and amazing attention to detail, The understanding he has of concept building has him taking vegetation, terrain builds, water techniques and colour schemes in space! The water techniques and execution of implementing plants and the choice of models makes this guy an inspiration. His trees? Well the building of his trees are no walk in the park, the way he chooses his twigs and gradually building them up is a hell of a skill!
Jean Diorama
Jean Diorama is a conceptual genius. To explain how this guy manages to create such a quantity of dioramas is one thing but to actually have the vision of his concepts is the work of a savant who keeps his keys hung up in some Weta Workshop creativity dungeon! There are no words to describe this man's level of execution. Any amazing unique concept a diorama artist can have in his head will overcome hurdles that of Budica trying to think of a way out of a sticky situation. This guy is the Roman Empire of diorama skills! Pay homage to this style of art or persish!
Mistral Fantasy World
Mistral Fantasy World has a foot well and truly in the door of amazing work. The concepts his work has taken him is a journey we all look towards as diorama artists. Quirky architecture and a fine mix of tudor and natural scenery has shown over and over again the love of recreating hearty old buildings and beyond what diorama making is all about. One love and hat tip to such individuals!
Celebrimbor Forge
Knock knock, whos there? “Oh its the postman with my council tax bill, do you want to come in a look at Celebrimbor’s insane dioramas on instagram mate?”
This man has carved out a diorama footprint even the last remaining neanderthal would dance over a fire for. His unreal builds of light composition and understanding in forced perspective with LOTR scenes have place him up there with the gods of diorama artists. The amount of procedures this artist goes through to get to the end is highly appreciated in the modelling community and level of creativity and execution many look up to. Touché i say!
Ginocastorina Taomini
Ginocastorina comes close to the most realistic building recreations ive seen, “but cant you scan it and 3D print that”? shut up you idiot! The shear focus and attention to detail this man produces is unreal, its almost like those amazing photorealistic pencil artist we see sometimes but this guy is chiseling his way into foam to pop into reality a perfect replica of many of italy’s creative architects work. I totally love his choice of buildings to create and his levels of work are top notch!
Tiny Wrelm
Tiny Wrelm has this compulsion to make me feel worthless at times, i stood upon a cliff and looked down as an old raven told me to jump, then i realised my moss has probably been in glycerine long enough and went home.
This guy has serious skills in popping out architectural concepts and execution in making epic little buildings of which was the type of style i got into modelling. He does a good array of building types but the tudor brick and wooden once are my favourite, You can tell Tiny has a solid focus to measurment and having everything fit correctly and the angles produced dimensionally puts him up there with inspirors and beneficiaries of hat tippers.
Barthism Workshop
I felt at least 500,000 neurons increase their speed by at least 53% in my cerebellum once, It was when i saw this guys work!
Putting trees together is a tedious business in modelling but seeing Barth’s epic dioramas of trees with their roots and branches look so beautifully natural really gives hope that no matter the effort a certain leven can be achieved. His brickwork, texturing and approach to moss is as fresh as an arctic nostril breath and in general really punches highly above the norm in this space.
Andrey Kuzminykh
Mr Kuzminykh, man or mother nature? If forests took selfies of their swinging coconuts or peachy behinds then these types of dioramas would be them.
Nature and forestry in so many different concepts pulled together in this amazing portfolio of hard work and concentration of how real nature looks. The dedication to understanding his surroundings and getting the colours correct is for you another creative needing an eye kept on. I cant find him anywhere except pinterest but luckily Pinterest is booming with treatful inspiration and Andrey is on course for free pint if i come across him in the woods. All Hail Forests!
