About this 3D model
Hello, here is the complete Tutorial series that I have created of my Hogwarts Diorama. Overall it includes 350 pages with many, many pictures. It's a very complex Tutorial series which is build around the famous Hogwarts Castle STL and then adding around 200 more extra tiny bits, like fishes, buildings, acessoires and trees. The goal for me was to challenge me in the diorama scale and also to work with the advantages of 3d printing, which allowed a wide range of extra models and rescaling opportunites. All placed in the famous world of Harry Potter and with a couple of key details from Hogwarts and around. Like the castle, sea, train statin, hogsmeade, Hagrids Hut, forbidden forest, flying car.. So I wanted to bring back a lot of interesting details from the books/movies, but also wanted to find a good realisation as tiny miniature diorama. Finding interesting main views, find right color choices and just create a nice landscape and also a wide variance of animals and plants in the seas. Beside that the series also includes a list of STLs that I used for this project. Some are available for free, some I have bought or are from my own range. I have an extra PDF, for the STL list added here. Here are the 5 parts listed with the main topics of each Tutorial. But overall it's an ongoing Tutorial explaining every step from start to finish. 1. Concept, sculpting landscape, key stls and buildings. 2. Adding Hogsmeade, rock corrections, start painting castle.3. Preparation Seaground, adding plants and fishes and adding Resin.4. Addings dragons, bushes and trees. 5. Finishing the project, more details, last color additions. In the attached pictures you can see the finished result of the base and also a few pages from the Tutorial itself. As writen it's my most complex Tutorial series so far, but I think even if you don't follow all steps it will lead to an great result. For example for the sea or the forest steps could have been simpler faster with some less details. But I wanted to do best I can and invest enough time to the smallest detail. And all those steps and explanations I wanted to document in this Tutorial series.
