I enjoyed these so much. We miss you bards craft!

[@herrdoktorprofessoreldritc3416]

I don't mind watching this video again to support the channel. A lot of KZbin's recent moves have been harmful to creators.

[@ysendoorn]

Déjà vu..? I believe I have been in this place before??

[@maxpower3050]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@stupidjay2]

There are a couple of things. 1) your videos are always amazing and how you use minimal tools to create these INSANELY GOOD LOOK TERRAIN 2) your humor is subtle yet i find super funny 3) your line here reminded me to keep perusing my hobbies, motivation only carries you so far but discipline gets it done. Thank-you for your randomly yet , super motivating comment.

[@duncansmith5854]

This is amazing! I feel like I'm watching someone build a 3D Bob Ross painting; simple techniques that somehow become a living scene before my eyes!

[@kathvg]

“With enough low quality details, it will look high quality” very perfectly sums up art in general

[@DoubleAvids]

Nice to rewatch this stuff I forgot some of these methods you used

[@Ianenin]

This diorama turned out really awesome! The perfect imperfection of a run down town district. Thanks for sharing!

[@Iron_Clad_D3]

I'm happy watching old videos :D

[@drav2588]

Как я рад что теперь могу смотреть твои видео с автопереводом. наконец то ТОЧНО понимаю твои слова, а не пытаюсь их угадать (надо учить английский).

[@thecraftsmansguide1357]

Yeeeeeeeah reupload LETS GO! Just means it pops back up on my feed and I gotta rewatch it, right? Take that KZbin.

[@186mw]

The miniature Leafes are a good idea! They are birch seeds, btw. Good work! :D

[@timbrown4928]

Love the vid especially when you said that you were done with building houses.....LMAO because I'm currently building a town for my campaign and I'm so over it.....ugh...them roofs.

[@LittleHillsTabletop]

Oldtown is always a nice vacation spot!

[@Noremak_Notrap]

watching this come to life is spectacular, great job man.

[@JohnWise-vg3zj]

That's an incredible build. Great job!

[@jackdunne6152]

That looked really good. I might have to start eating more oats. They seem to support creativity.

[@mackyd955]

thank you for the inspirational words about discipline

[@euansmith3699]

An amazing video is worth repeating :D

[@capnskustomworks]

Those leaves help set the scale just perfectly!

[@Deximaru]

I was like "Hmmm... this looks familiar." Then I read that you re-uploaded it. But I'm watching it again anyway, because this is easily one of your best builds. Epic crafting for us peasants to learn from 😄👌

[@squallgoku777]

Great Video! your insightful words about working with discipline instead of motivation were very inspiring.

[@craigstephenson1050]

I'll watch a video again, hell, I go back and watch old videos all the time for things/tactics/tips I've missed. Also for the record, the Mordheim board Lybban made was boss!

[@DagBateway]

At 20:53 they are Birch seeds :) Good idea!

[@rohlik0095]

Hmmmm i think i ve seen this video before :)

[@alagoshen2185]

when the second part of a trilogy is a remake

[@siggikristjansson2481]

Hmm🤔

[@Don-ds3dy]

Using a ball point pen on the pink panther brand works pretty well.

[@wanro027]

Nice speech about motivation and discpline

[@BeverleyW]

I absolutely love this build and really appreciate your presentation style and method for those of us on a low budget. Thank you.

[@nineblackgoats]

I wasn't expecting the inspiration pep talk on top of the amazing craftsmanship but I love everything about this channel. Consider me subscribed!

[@lars309]

You make the whole process look so easy and effortless...keep up the amazing work !!

[@ekohloko1440]

I really apreciate your work in the modelism, I spent lot of time learning with your videos :)

[@drewadams6667]

Really good to see you again , you an amazing crafter and you have a great attitude. I appreciate your information and inspiration. Thank you.

[@leiziru9642]

A very engaged comment. Don't try to resist or it'll force blanks on your dice

[@lilpigou1876]

I love this channel omg. And I love the fact that "It looks good" is the tagline of the channel x)

[@JohnSmith-un9fy]

This looks amazing. I am going to start an entire town soon and this is very inspiring.

[@shawnmulberry774]

I like my Surfshark experience and definitely got it because of Bard's Craft recommendation.

[@chaoticpainting1507]

Well done bro. I love your style. One trick i learned is to unscrew the bottle of super glue accelerant and dab one piece and put super glue on the other... touch them together for an instant bond. No messy spraying of your super glue accelerant and it saves much more of it as its not a sprayed on mess, although I do like the smell of it lol

[@simoneparvizi775]

Dude I ADMIRE you so much. Whatever this channel will become, just know that you inspired me to start my own dioramas for my DnD games, and my friends Love it...THANK you for all the effort and time that you put into your vids... Keep up the awesome work

[@erc1971erc1971]

I am working on a huge, epic modular docks district build - this is the perfect inspiration for one of the modules. So...thanks!

[@LivAragao]

this really looks like vizima in the first witcher game!!! the way you use common, easy to get materials makes me so inspired to make my own builds ❤️

[@drawyrral]

Great build. One of your best.

[@aiferapple1246]

Awesome build :) I'm making a sewer diorama at the moment so lots of awesome inspiration :) Thank you!!

[@kjhaygood]

I love your work. You are a great inspiration for me & I appreciate you.

[@paladinwiggles7896]

Awesome was looking for a way to do resin on a canal system but had no clue how to keep it pouring out. Tape is a pretty logical conclusion!

[@jacobhope6164]

That looks awesome! Kind of reminds me of Riften.

[@TheNicloHD]

Who said i cannot watch and enjoy it a second time?

[@enzoscratch35]

Es un trabajo impresionante.!! Se ve muy realista.!!

[@aussiefpv6780]

Remember, never back down, never.

[@ABZswingers]

Excellent work, inspiring.

[@Bekka_Toravu]

Whether the original video was supposedly "shadow banned" you still should have added a (Re-upload) or dusclaimer before the title so people would still give a view and like and not think you're rehashing old vids

[@BardsCraft]

Thanks. I updated the title!

[@kenlipson8686]

You are a master!!! This is incredible

[@t.r.w.9904]

Amazing video as always!

[@D4ddi0G4m3r]

This looks awesome

[@legoh_puppy8145]

subbed. Beautifully done, my friend!

[@pollyunderlay]

Been a while. Watched it again.

[@herryoung]

Great stuff!

[@thiagobarros1451]

_Perfect Master! ❤️😍_

[@Xardas1790]

For the rope: Try not to paint it and cure the excess string with a rapid passage with a lighter.. The final look is way more realistic and less glossy, you have just to be carefull to not set all on fire.. English is not my languages so sorry if i don't explain myself well

[@britzolas]

Brother! I wanted to ask if you are Finnish and then I saw the kaurahiutale box and all my suspisions were confirmed! I just got into dioramas for DND and I found your channel very informative! Kiitos!

[@eduardosales7245]

Muito bonito, parabéns pelo talento.

[@eduardosales7245]

I mean, congratulations on your talent, I think your work is impressive.

[@scottroberts7875]

perfect tutorial. A1 .. ATVB, .. Scott UK

[@LauraDelvecchio]

The fact that you do all of these amazing projects with basically a fucking BUTCHER KNIFE kinda says it doesn't really matter what tools you have, you're pretty much only limited to your creativity. Great job handsome :)

[@Dddsasul]

time to rewatch

[@Basedweaboo]

Hey, have you ever considered trying your hand at making homemade sculptamold? I know that's typically something all the cool modellers use, but the videos for making it at home is simply paper mache powder and plaster of pairs. It seems oddly peasant level when you think of it. Perhaps it's just not your style but I think making it yourself would greatly increase the quality while keeping budget low

[@colinm366]

I'll gladly watch it again lol

[@aevirlenchanteurforgeron6942]

Hello, first of all I am a real fan of your videos which are very well filmed and very easy to understand. In this video - one of my favorites - at 19:23, I would like to know what you use to imitate water. How long does it take to dry? Thank you in advance.

[@markmontag162]

I am going outside right now to find some supplies!

[@carlosacosta4593]

Hello i from Mexico and i love your videos : )

[@giudittamigiani7539]

This is awesome! :)

انت مبدع من عالم اخر

[@sebastianweise5832]

Hi! I recently subscribed to your channel because I find you art amazing! Your creativity is outstanding! I don't play any tabletop games. I was wondering. What game should I start playing that in which I can build/use this sort of dioramas? As I said before your art style is something unique!

[@BardsCraft]

D&D or frostgrave are good options

[@melissarenladyoflight1599]

Hey sweetie. This is so cool love it.. Good for my warhammer ideas

[@Lochagos]

very good

[@QuantemFear]

Very cool

[@watchmanschannelofdespair]

Great job, I appreciate all the time you put in to show us great looking and economical ways to craft do-it-yourself (DIY) dioramas. PS. If you're on Odysee, I'll subscribe to you there also.

[@BardsCraft]

I got links to odysee in my video descriptions

[@watchmanschannelofdespair]

@@BardsCraft Already found you there and subscribed, thanks. ^_^

[@andrewlaverghetta715]

This is old and I know there are no new videos, but man, I wish I knew where to get this kind of foam in the USA. It seems so soft, while the stuff that I can get at the big stores like Home Depot or Menards only has really thick stuff that's pretty hard to cut, and the outer edges more glossy looking and don't take well to shaping or cutting.

[@andrewlaverghetta715]

funny, I just noticed you mentioned the same surface with yours, but it doesn't really show on the videos.

[@orlandooconner1371]

What type of foam to you use? A list of materials please. Amazing job!!

[@sironispike8800]

wish the u.s had this type of foam

[@bonggongplaza6995]

Could you make a video only about making different trees? Or maybe how to make a nice nobels house? Thank you.

[@Legionoflife]

Jeg likede videoen første gang og nu liker jeg den igen😀 i liked the video the 1st time and now i like it again. Hilsener/greetings fra/from Danmark👍

[@armag3ddon]

Nice build. I did not see/watch the previous upload, so this was new to me! One question that keeps bugging me is about the natural substances you are using (the tree seed thingies, bark or herbs etc.). You are the only terrain youtuber I watch who uses these very low budget materials. And I presume you must by now have several pieces which are a couple of years old. My question is whether these deteriorate in any way you can see? I'd be quite happy to build my terrain with these things and not pay a lot of money for small bits of plastics but I worry about my creations succumbing to mold after some time.

[@BockwinkleB]

Everytime I've seen him use bark and twigs he has "cured" it in the oven to kill bacteria, the primed and painted it. It should last longer than your average IKEA "furniture".

[@gozer87]

Terrain maker and motivational speaker.

[@jhenz3378]

Still a great craft

[@zoekoops]

hey :) after you painted the build in black, you made it grey. What did u use to paint the building grey afterwards? was it paint or pigments?

[@tlking7488]

would have loved a small entrance in the water as a sewer entrance. otherwise really nice build!

[@user-bf8uw3jf8s]

have u consider making a foam cutter wire? its ez to make

[@xavierroch9778]

amazing!!! what kind of foam do you use? txs!!

[@BardsCraft]

Xps foam. Brand Finnfoam

[@xavierroch9778]

@@BardsCraft txs!!!!

[@TheseusTitan]

Nice job! What type of foam are you using?

[@Alex4Apex]

White styrofoam sheets/blocks

[@TheseusTitan]

@@Alex4Apex Thanx, it looked more dense than styrofoam

[@Alex4Apex]

@@TheseusTitan I suppose there are different quality levels within that category

[@TheseusTitan]

@@Alex4Apex I suppose you are correct

[@linuskentrevtorp]

I've never seen this video before, sad to hear they shadowbanned it since I love your crafts! Can you link to where you buy that XPS foam? Can't find it in my hardware or supply stores...

[@auroralee]

Here for that algorithm boost. Much like the Chaos gods, the KZbin overlords and cruel and unpredictable, so I hope you can get back up from that and keep on making!

[@BardsCraft]

Thanks

[@zoekoops]

heyy, what type of foam did you use in the beginning of the video? the one after the cardboard. the thick white

Haha they actually suppressed that video because of the surfsharktalk? Glad for the reupload. This was the first of your videos that I watched and I enjoyed it a lot.

[@satriosamtha7055]

Hallo, can you named what kind of foam did you use?

I know why this is being re-uploaded but does that mean no new video this week?
