[@FacilityD20]

Love the opening shots in this video. You can really tell that the printed rule book is of a really high quality. Also, thanks for working with me on the 24-hour challenge. It was a blast.

[@CronosVids]

That building montage was so amazing. The music made it fun to watch and felt so energetic. I could watch those for hours.

[@TheProtagonist7]

Here's my game about biblical torment... anyways.... upbeat 80's rocky montage! Loved it

[@hmgirlpopuri5819]

Helped out some friends putting out an indy RPG many years ago and there's nothing quite like cracking open that first copy of the book and smelling the paper and knowing your work is out there for people to enjoy. Great job and congratulations, Jeremy!

[@Khether0001]

Serious Congratulations, man! Publishing a book like that is no small feat!!!

[@SkullyShows]

The 80’s montage music during the build was just perfect. 😎

[@Miniac]

That book is beautiful, Jeremy! It's super encouraging to see someone tackle a new thing for the first time and create such a high quality product. Are you planning any expansions for the game? Or maybe slingin' the IP over to an RPG setting, etc.?

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Yup, we are planning on the next expansion already 😀

[@och70]

Whoever did that opening voiceover is giving me some serious Christopher Lee LOTR vibes. Well done!

[@steampunk8036]

Congratulations on the completion of your book, brother! I don’t think I’ve ever seen you so happy and enthusiastic on a video. I love the build, also. - Rick, USMC

[@mancheckitout]

This is one of your epic builds! Look at how far you’ve come from your very first video! Your game book looks awesome! Amazing!

[@aqualust5016]

I had no idea you've been working on all this! What an accomplishment, very happy you've been able to produce such a cool set of products that are undeniably unique from the rest.

[@ryansullivan5854]

The 80's vibe on that build montage was epic.

[@brieoshiro]

I know right, the music with the sped up cutting footage reminded me of old music videos lol

[@terrainaholic]

Proud of you Big Guy!!!! BEAUTIFUL BUILD!!!!!!!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Hey, good to see ya!

[@VelourYeti]

Jeremy, my dude! I'm glad you're feeling better and that your vision has come to fruition! This is just the beginning for Idols of Torment and I can't wait to see where it is five years from now! Congrats, man!

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

Wow. Your book and game look amazing. Not to mention how awesome your terrain looks. I've always been amazed with your ability to make foam look like stone. I really can't wait to have a game, and to see it gain the popularity it deserves. Great work, and thanks for sharing!

[@EmeraldKnightR]

Loving the 80's montage music! The build was fantastic, as always.

[@emilyr2836]

I had to laugh because every fine artist I've watched start working with pan pastels has the exact same "these are awesome" reaction. Truly a versatile product to get that reaction from people who work in so many different media!

[@MB-st7be]

I know your channels tends to focus on builds that are easy for others to copy, but I think it would be interesting to see you make a really detailed building for once, with all the flying butresses and gothic tracery, stained glass, cornices, gargoles, the full works!

[@paulofreire7520]

Basic usage of build techniques and an awesome result. That’s talent 👍🏻

[@ChristopherGronlund]

Damn...that's a friggin' purty-ass book right there! Congratulations on building up (and keeping) a great community going that could support such an endeavor. Happy for you guys 😀

[@WylochsArmory]

Congrats!

[@JeffDrennen]

Jeremy I've never seen you this excited since you announced this project. Congratulations on a successful launch. Unfortunately I couldn't back it but I will pick it up when it's available to the public. Once again congratulations To you and your team I'm happy for you.

[@EricHartis]

Great 80’s “I will overcome any obstacle” movie vibe! 🤘

[@ethanedwards7834]

Can't wait to get my hands on the book, and the strong hold looks great!

[@themattresspolice4040]

AMOBT "Always Mock Up Before Texturing" OK, I just made that up, but it's now written on my foam texturing toolbox. I always learn something useful from these vids because you include mistakes with the successes. Thanks again!

[@artistpoet5253]

It is always so cool to see a creator geek out on their work and while I'm not into the theme and setting, I can appreciate the beauty of the results. Congratulations on a job well done and on it's way to happy collectors.

[@crapparc]

Slowly but surely this is becoming an Idols of Torment commercial channel. But you know what? I don't even mind (that much) thanks to the sheer amount of value your builds/tutorials give.

[@keegobricks9734]

possible shortcut to the grout line, make a wire mesh of some kind, out of a metal that's sturdy enough to keep a squared shape, but also thin enough to be a grout line, then just heat the thing on the BBQ for like 2 mins, press it onto the foam sheet, and you should get a slightly melted outline with whatever grid pattern you cut the mesh too. Depends a bit on the materials you're using and you'd need to be super careful about how you place it, not to mention not burning yourself, but I think it could work.

[@the_Sleepy_Druid]

Jeremy, that is one of my favorite builds you have ever done sir. It came out great, and congrats on the release of Idols of Torment!

[@TheRedBard]

The 'freestyling' you said is hard to describe is my primary method of crafting, and I would argue most people who push through do to some extent as well. Add and see what you get. Maybe next project during the freestyling, take some specific notes on your thoughts during each piece, that might help put more words to the concept at the moment. This one looks excellent, couldn't have guessed any of it was freestyled unless you told us. Greta work as always.

[@gringofett3944]

Congrats on publication of your rules! That is indeed a culmination of what is obviously a lot of work. Great video and the new pastel product is something I will be on the lookout for.

[@mszoomy]

You did a fantastic job, you have every right to be proud

[@alexstclair5429]

I've loved your content for years. Thank you for your service! I dig the new vibe in this video. All the best to you and yours, Friend.

[@oliviairene4637]

As soon as you revealed the PanPastels, I was immediately reminded of the stack of old makeup compacts I have on my hobby desk that I've been meaning to try as pigments... I'm guessing the pastels will go on a little better, but now I want to get some to compare...

[@emmahayes111]

Congratulations Jeremy, so exciting. Loved the build too 😊

[@mammonclarke]

The book looks fantastic!

[@obadijahparks]

This turned out really well.

[@doomed2die595]

Idols of Torment miniatures on MMF are disgustingly Badass, The Vile and The Hollow are super awesome. Im gona buy the Get Started Bundle and Idols Full Bundle on payday.

[@Powoga]

You know what this reminds me of? The old Playmobil castle walls. Thanks for the unintentional nostalgia.

[@TheLaensman]

The book looks Amazing! Watching this on a early Friday morning before work, seeing the build and hearing that upbeat music really got me pumped to build something similar this weekend

[@BrickSomething]

Congrats! This truly is an accomplishment. Appreciate the diy spirit and sharing so much of your process with the rest of us. Wonderful! ✌🏾➕✊🏾

[@dougpridgen9682]

Great job Jeremy and well deserved pride in your achievement.

[@goblincavecrafting]

The sheer happy vibes at 08:32 had me bopping out like a little workshop gremlin. Loving this build, and congrats on your dream becoming reality after so much hard work and thought and effort! Hope your back is getting better too.

[@timago4443]

Congratulations on having the finished piece in your hands ! Looks great

[@olebrogger]

I just love the work you do. you have been such a great inspiration for all the crafting i do🙏🏽. Just keep up the good work, and congrats on the book 💕

[@DanaHowl]

Awesome build Jeremy!!!! and congrats on the book, it looks great and must be nice to finally have a copy in your hands!!!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Thanks Dana

[@claylewis8233]

80s jam build music! amazing.

[@yuribroda]

I absolutely love the music during the free-flow building montage, it's like the perfect 80's movie montage music!

[@bilgatus]

Following you for years now and am happy to see finally a good creation again :) Good luck with your game!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

All creations are good.

[@patrickmccauley3255]

Your best video yet! The build: Awesome!! Your excitement and enthusiasm: contagious! Even the sponsor: badass! Love your content and excited to get my copy of IOT.

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Thanks so much!!

[@NerdCuriousStudios]

FANTASTIC!!! Very well done.

[@oldmanofthemountains3388]

This build ended up looking FANTASTIC!

[@joepilimai4604]

Awesome build!!! Love the idea of using pre-packaged pastel powders...my next purchase.

[@NodnarbBrando]

Fantastic to see you come so far. Seeing that book on that shelf is honestly a dream come true for you, congratulations. Can't wait to try this game out.

[@TheTkhhwilliams]

The upbeat montage music is fantastic! I found myself bobbing along as you cut and fitted your walls together. Thanks for these great videos

[@danfocke]

The artwork in your book looks gorgeous!

[@stephenjones8105]

Can’t wait to get my copy and minis in. Need more play through videos of this fantastic game

[@horizonsforge]

Love the stone work on the outside pillars, it looks so real! Also congrats again on Idols!

[@cerisekappes580]

Congratulations!!!! Looks amazing!!!! 😊😊😊

[@uoraziel]

Jeremy, i dont wanna premote other channels... i would love you to team up with Atmoseeker, for some terrain... for fog machines or that interact with lights. You are my OG terrain Crafting Masters. I replicate all your stuff, i would love to see your mind at work with a fog machine terrain!!! ❤ Keep up the amazing work!

[@Shadoweyed09]

Great build and can't wait to try Idols of Torment. Also, love the montage and music accompaniment!

[@user-jh8kp3vc8c]

Congratulations on all your hard work! So excited for you!

[@charmedimsure8852]

great job you two! Congrats

[@glorfendell2967]

This turned out so cool! Glad to see you back. Hope you are well and congrats on the huge endeavour.

[@mistac5050]

Great job on Idols Jeremy. Super happy for your success.

[@garybuettner7920]

This game looks so cool and interesting. The amount of creativity, passion, and work that must’ve went into it is mind blowing. (Side note: the way the hotwire table cuts is so damn satisfying.)

[@scottcomber]

Well done! Love how happy and proud you are :)

[@simarshall2474]

You're clearly very proud of the game, and you should be. Cracking job bud!

[@magnusmillerwilson]

I’m so freaking excited! I can’t wait to get my Idols stuff!

[@Schalazarro]

This build is super cool! And thanks for Pan Pastel. Cheers.

[@Sad_Old_Goth]

Amazing. I feel this could help with a future "Nightbreed" project ❤

[@FamBoren]

Fantastic (as always)!

[@kellylarson2759]

Congratulations to you and your team!!!

[@Moldoro]

Everything about the project is just gorgeous. I am sad I didn't have a chance to back it with life. So glad for its success so far and looking forward to more in your future. Thanks for being such an inspiring maker.

[@PsiQss]

Congrats man! You're so genuinely excited, it's contagious! :D

[@billhaigh312]

Damn, this is worth the wait!! And I hope you’re feeling better

[@gregmccormack5709]

Sweet build! & congrats on the progress with the game.👍🏻

[@chrisfox961]

Congratulations and another great video!

[@guillermodelnoche]

Have you ever tried mixing up a bucket or tub of black paint and water to dip the whole project in at once to speed up that step of coverage? Awesome build!

[@DrFilch]

man, hearing you say that you don't enjoy basecoating the whole thing by hand really resonated with me. There's nothing quite as boring (or daunting) for me, as having a large build to just slather in thin black or white acrylic.

[@jameslivingstone8267]

Awesome video as always, wishing you all the best with your recovery as well!

[@jackcleveland1175]

Nice one! And congratulations on publishing your game. Well done!

[@claybass3631]

Dude! Good for you. That's awesome! I'm excited!!

[@334outdoors8]

That type of building you where describing around the 7:30-8:30 point I think is best described as artistry with out engineering

[@VarikasPL]

Your videos are soooo awesome, i really like them. And Your builds. You are awesome. Keep doing what youre doing! And congrats for finishing Your KS kampaign!

[@SteelKiss1]

Congrats on your game and it’s nice to see new videos!!

[@eastoforion]

wow that is a super convincing stone, love those pastels!

[@gabehugh343]

Great stuff Jeremy congrats on thr game book and all the hardworking you guys have put into it amazing. Oh an fantastic build too... I want to find that new pastel stuff you are talking about and used at thr end

[@thomaswilliams5005]

That is really amazing.

[@debbralehrman5957]

Great look 👍🏼

[@darknessislight3689]

Congratulations 🎊🎉 on your new endeavor 😊 awesome build 👍🏾

[@louislowery2877]

Love it! Can’t wait for my kickstarter box!!

[@bibnook9916]

Loving these IOT builds!

[@kinginthenorf3034]

Looks so good. I think destroying part of one of 2 of the statues would've given a more ancient vibe to it. Like it's so old the statues are starting to crumble and don't look fresh

[@anq4274]

Dude looks happy, good for him.

[@perrygrosshans8537]

Amazing video! Ahhhh....so relaxing watching a foam build. And it looks fantastic! And congrats again on getting that game done! The book looks awesome! Can't wait to get my physical copy (and my deck of cards! Lol!) :)

[@cathyo3965]

I just got the pdf. I can't wait to read

[@ScrumpleScuff]

Soundtrack choice for the montage was on point 👍

[@robchapin3317]

Congratulations on the new hard-copy!! You should be proud.

[@sim2570]

I'm very happy for you, it's obviously easy to see that you're totally passion about that project and you did it in a very professional way. Success well deserve! :)
