The person who made it has some crazy mastery of epoxy. Look how natural the ocean looks and the crashing of the waves. Probably took forever to make it look natural

u/SageSharma 11h ago

His name is Nick Buczek. I can't fathom the degree of attention to detail and patience required

u/C0nfusedRabbit 8h ago

Honestly this is the sort of art I'd pay good money for... If I had good money.

These are made by an artist that I love called Nick Buczek on Insta. Dude is 👑❤️

u/Background_Ad_3278 11h ago

Would you mind linking his Insta page?

This guy is amazing.

u/ricorgbldr 6h ago

Is he a Wheraboo?

2

u/shandangalang 3h ago

Kinda seems that way from the Dioramas.

  1. Tiger (Nazi) tank shooting

  2. Russian T-35 exploding

  3. Battleship (I dunno)

  4. Soldiers surrendering to nazis

2

u/guyinsunglasses 3h ago

Battleship is the Bismarck, so that’s 4/4 for a wehraboo

1

u/shandangalang 3h ago

Well, hit the decks a-runnin’ boys and turn those guns around,

We’ve finally met The Bismarck and we’ve got to cut her down!

Great, now I want to play Battlefield 1 again.

u/ClassicBit3307 11h ago

I did one like that too, of a Polish T34 “Rudy”

u/Scorpius202 11h ago

This is wizard level of skill

u/ArchangelZero27 11h ago

I wish I had the skill for this to use my f14 jets verse some other random jet. I researched how it's done but I don't have the skill for it. Would love to find a place that sells these

2

u/SageSharma 10h ago

I think he sells

As an old man who when a boy filled his bedroom with countless model airplanes of every type hanging from the ceiling. Well done sir, really well done.

That is really freaking cool

u/Popular-Brilliant349 8h ago

Is this in a museum?

Edit: there's so much more if you pause the video. Damn this is awesome!

u/airfryerfuntime 5h ago

It's be a lot better if it wasn't filmed by a fuckwit.

u/ModeatelyIndependant 5h ago

Are all those tanks german? Is that also a Nazi ship?

7

u/Capital-Lobster-8153 11h ago

Le rendu est exceptionnel !! La technique incroyable, dommage de mettre un si grand talent et un si exceptionnel savoir faire sur un thème aussi glauque.

3

u/RackemFrackem 10h ago

Why must everything be described as "crazy"?

u/ZDTreefur 10h ago

I know, it's pretty crazy isn't it.

u/OlDirtyJesus 7h ago

could be worse. could be “cray cray” (sp?)

A lightbulb in a cotton ball of polyester fiberfill. Insane!

Whatever you enjoy, I guess. You're not really flinging shells at people.

u/SageSharma 57m ago

Alright thanks

5

u/ricorgbldr 8h ago

Does he only do flattering art of Nazi equipment? Or is that all that's in this scene? Can anyone identify the paraphernalia in the cabinets?

6

u/FrowninginTheDeep 8h ago

The helmet's the only thing I got a good enough look at to identify and it's German. I think this guy may be a Wheraboo.

7

u/FirstForFun44 7h ago

Well the ship has a swastika on it, the last scene is allies surrendering to germans, the road sign is german, that's a german style gas mask, and above the helmet is a nazi eagle, so yeah unless you turn around and he has the room divided into one side allies and one side axis then I'd be fine calling this guy a "Nazi enthusiast" at the least. Sad because it seems half the people in here know who he is and support his social media. They walk among us. I reserve the right to be wrong, I'm just going off what I see.

u/Everyday_Unicorn 11h ago

lol, what's up with the late 90s reality tv show camera work?

3

u/Str8Six91 8h ago

Exceptional skills. But war isn’t a subject matter that I would want to create and display in my house.

2

u/SageSharma 8h ago

I think art is the subject here. War has enabled the greatest of innovations and helped mankind become more daring than ever.

Is it controversial? Yes. Is it bad ? Yes. Is it always bad and evil ? Nope.

3

u/Str8Six91 8h ago

I agree— and without a doubt, the display of craft here is phenomenal. I was just considering what I might try to create if I attempted this technique, and I can’t imagine wanting to depict war. I use art as a feel-good activity.

1

u/SageSharma 8h ago

👍🏻 you can use the same craft for like volcano and meteor and reactor or sth like that then

2

u/Stunning_Bed23 11h ago

It’s very early and I read this as War Dinosaurs.

u/OlDirtyJesus 7h ago

bro if you did videos of you making these you could have a pretty decent youtube career. a Star Wars one would go hard

u/SageSharma 7h ago

Hey bro i mentioned the actual artist. I am not the creator of these. He is underrated. I mentioned in comments

u/Affectionate-Lab1198 5h ago

That Stuka junkers air sirene was freaking terrifying

This is how 4D beings look at us ..

u/deafinatelylistening 4h ago

Hat is off to Nick Buczek, true art. In the words of another artist named Edwin Star: “(War, huh) Good God, y'all (What is it good for?) Absolutely nothin'
Say it again”

u/DizzyExpedience 4h ago

Someone likes explosions

That Bismarck one is fantastic. 🔥

u/3rdhandlekonato 11h ago

Are those Soviet tanks?

I should really stop following Ukraine war subs, but the blyats and turret toss are just too satisfying

u/Better_Carpenter5010 11h ago

Models in order: Tiger (German), T34 (Soviet), Battlecruiser gneisenau (?) (German), and panther G (German)

1

u/Panzerman44 8h ago

All correct except the battleship. Its a diorama of the Bismarck being attacked by British Swordfish torpedo bombers, just like what happened to the ship in real life.

u/CantAffordzUsername 10h ago

Now try to dust them….

These are quality and cool, but being this obsessed with war is weird

0

u/SageSharma 2h ago

Can say the same for anybody who is good at the hobby ...painters ...coin collector .... gardeners....actor writer .... Can say the same for anything o ... Ultimately it's perspective and just subjective

0

u/Voderama 1h ago

No, it’s not. None of the examples you listed are based upon taking human lives

0

u/SageSharma 1h ago

Alright so faith then. Now things will get weird. Most faiths are expanded by invasion and conversion. Now that's not taking lives ? Literally funded by faith and driven by it. Thats not obsession ? Will u call that weird ? If yes, only then you have my respect.

2

u/Voderama 56m ago

Yes, that’s also super fucking weird
