Beautiful Windmill made from Paint Container Dungeons and Dragons

We are crafting a Beautiful Windmill for your table top needs. I mainly plan use this for Dungeons and Dragons.
I used an empty container of craft smart paint as my structure for this craft. come check me out and see how I manage to make things difficult for myself on this weeks episode of Frankie D. Crafter.

Lol that poor poor dumb window. Nice work Franky. All said and done you came out with a beauty of a piece.

[@simonmears4073]

As my old teachers used to say “failure to prepare is preparing to fail” annoying he was right, but it’s true. Great project, looks awesome

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Lol that’s the one!

[@ScratchBashing]

Those prepared planks keep showing up!

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Scratch Bashing they are so gooooooood!!!!!

[@scottselvidge86]

Love this windmill! You keep outdoing yourself, Franky!

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Scott Selvidge awesome bro

[@martinthewarrior5016]

Seeing the roof at 7:56 is giving me ideas for cute little goblin tanks! Just a tiled cone, with a single gun sticking out the front. Perhaps it doesnt even have treads, and the goblins hiding underneath just lift and shuffle around with it 😂

[@FrankyDCrafter]

thats an awesome idea!

[@keithshuler654]

Franky, you truly are a talented individual. Thanks for sharing yet another great build. Looks great, nice addition to any table..

[@subascosauce8288]

That has to be my favourite windmill I’ve seen crafted, I just love your use of colour in all your projects. Brilliant work.

[@FrankyDCrafter]

SuBasco Sauce thank you. So happy you liked it!!!

[@Heath86]

One can only learn by trying. Another awesome video Frankie!

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Heath Falkenrath facts

[@Gamarishi]

Oh no, he is planning! hahahaha Just kidding, nice build! I liked the differents tones used on the bricks

[@FrankyDCrafter]

It was the hardest part to get to the point where I was happy with them.

[@MrAmurray73]

Very cool, like the ideas for the platforms and also the tips you give others around mistakes not to try at home. The way you attached the windmill sails with the metal rod had me thinking it would have been cool to use a longer rod and keep the 'nose' piece separate so that once attached the sails could be rotated.

[@FrankyDCrafter]

I thought about it but decided not to because I thought it would be too fragile. I tend to be very paranoid about things like that.

[@riotangel914]

Beautiful build. Your colors really make your crafts pop. I also dig the art hanging behind you.

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Thank you. the art I made a while ago.

[@10urion]

Watching it a second time after I was already able to watch it over on Patreon. It is definetely worth to watch it twice!

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Tenurion you guys really are the best

[@doodledicemonsters]

Don't tell Dr. Stein, but Franky is right. ;)

[@scottselvidge86]

And of course ALGORITHMSSSSSSSS!!!

[@genesisgarcia6005]

I think one on my favorite parts is when I see you painting the roof, it such a good shot and it shows how you ur shadows and highlights ❤️👍🏼

[@LONO47]

Love the art in the background. Great work as always. Been looking for things to do with the paint bottles. This is definitely an option!

[@FrankyDCrafter]

The art is some old stuff I made. I should really think about making some new things.

[@LONO47]

@@FrankyDCrafter I love your art, you should draw as much as you sculpt and craft. P.S. go to bed. -Sid

[@aaronjones1752]

As usual great job always enjoy watching you create. I especially like the drawings behind you look like there's a Salvador Dali influence. Thanks for sharing your art.

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Aaron Jones he’s very inspiring

[@joehayward4545]

Very good work & awesome tutorial. You should go for the cats lair from thundercats. The 80's cartoon not the new thundercats roar, or something transformer like?

[@stevensherrell637]

Love you're crafts mate ! It would be great to see your take on "castle greyskull " 👍👍🖌

[@FrankyDCrafter]

people keep asking lol

[@andytate5670]

I'm making a haunted windmill at this moment

[@FrankyDCrafter]

That sounds awesome.

[@Wallach_a]

That window is something you need to come back to at a later date. Perhaps if it were more recessed but like you said, look at some photos and grab some ideas. Love the build as a whole. 👍🏻

[@andytate5670]

I Think you got the platforms right. I've been studying Windmills for my own build, they very rarely have a platform near the sails the nearest they come is just slightly to the side. I'm basing my design on several different windmills from horror movies the first two are from Frankenstein 1931 and the Bride of Frankenstein 1935 ( My great uncle was the Director of these movies) The one from Brides of Dracula 1962 and Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow 1999 ( this is actually a partial copy of the Brides of Dracula one) and Finally Van Helsing 2004 ( this one was the biggest of the bunch, it's the size idea I'm pinching it's going to be big!) I'm hoping to have the curving sides and bat winged sails too, So fare I've got stage one almost done but it has been fighting me all the way. my mistak choose one damn design and stick with it! but I'm committed now.

[@FrankyDCrafter]

I should have thought to look at the Frankenstein films for reference. I let myself down lol

[@andytate5670]

@@FrankyDCrafter the problem is you can look at too much and you see several things you want to do and then you discover on your build that one look doesn't work with another I looked at all four of those movies for reference and in some cases I managed to track down the artwork for those ideas ( some with ideas they rejected!) Seriously it can drive you mad. next time I will pick one design and add my own ideas . I'm two weeks into this project now,. I tried the batwing sails but I felt that they didn't look right, they were too obvious, What kindof Flower miller would put batwings at the end of the sails ( a severely twisted one who wouldn't sell much flour) so in the end I went with a sort of gothic cross shape with a point at each end I checked on line and some mills did have these 'm looking at my plat form at the moment and I may be removing that for some thing better.

[@tjardoscooter]

A dicetower 😁😁😁

[@RLBndR]

Nice intro!

[@Mrleesors]

It's amazing, dude!

[@LorielStarkWinterfell]

Just found your channel couple days ago and have liked pretty much all of your stuff so far :D . I had to comment about the window, that it seemed to me like it was "decorated with roses" especially with the colors.

[@FrankyDCrafter]

That was a huge obstacle and probably the hardest part. For some reason I kept changing it.

[@MichaelMordor]

Awesome as always Think I might just have to hit you up on Patreon next month give you some love for all the work you are doing ;-D

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Michael Mordor that’s really nice of you. Thank you.

[@justinfarkas]

Great job, loving your builds! 👍

[@turbonerd6552]

Love this. I have got to add platforms to my future projects. UnLike you though Franky I completely lack a planning stage

[@FrankyDCrafter]

I’m trying, I rarely plan, but On youtube that’s a necessity.

[@J2982able]

Ayo Franky! It looks great, even that poor dumb window lolol Keep it up homie! Always look forward to your vidyas

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Thank you. Hoped you enjoyed the video.

[@vocoryperkins7195]

You got a new subscriber today man. That looks awesome!

[@FrankyDCrafter]

TheRealSamoan -VOPERKINS that’s awesome to hear

[@lepettit_bricoleur3212]

Really cool! Even if put the second floor in stone on a first floor in stucco and beems dont make many sense! 😂

[@FrankyDCrafter]

I know, I was looking at a dragon quest 11 mill. The stone work on the reference was a lot smaller so it was a bit awkward because of my brick choice.

[@jerimystoltz4663]

Franky, have you done a Dwarven brewery. Would love to see your take on that.

[@FrankyDCrafter]

It’s on my bucket list

[@ArtJeremiah]

Excellent as always! I especially love the blue roof tiles and railing. Also, your video was a work of art. I enjoyed the B-Roll and how entertaining you were as well. I was hoping for a link to that air dry clay (I would have purchased through your link for sure). How does it compare to Crayola?

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Ten times better for sure. It’s one of those items I rather pick up at the store. Sometimes you get it through amazon but it’s actually repackaged old and dry. At the store you usually get the good stuff.

[@ArtJeremiah]

@@FrankyDCrafter good to know about the clay. I will make sure not to order it online. Thanks man!

[@doodledicemonsters]

Great video, brought down only by a lack of Vitamin C(oop)

[@FrankyDCrafter]

😂 good one

[@genesisgarcia6005]

Yeah where is the coop in this vid???

[@echodelta2426]

Awesome build. Love the colors. What is the tool that you are using for texturing, it's difficult to see what it is. Great use for recycling a paint container

[@FrankyDCrafter]

Rotary rasp. Very handy.

[@jonnyjonjo]

maybe a building from the dragon quest series like an abbey or church

[@FrankyDCrafter]

jonnyjonjo did you just recognize the mill from dragon quest 11?

[@jonnyjonjo]

@@FrankyDCrafter yes but also cause you mention its one of your favorite rpgs

[@thecraftingbrothers9448]

WOW! Love the doors. Just curious, what camera do you use?

[@FrankyDCrafter]

The Crafting Brothers go pro for process and iPhone for my ugly face.

[@chadbodine336]

So you have to crawl out the window to get up on the platform?

[@FrankyDCrafter]

No i had little ladders, oops I guess I forgot to mention that lol it’s so like me.

[@kellanr1941]

Great Build! I’ve been wondering- how do you make you battleboards?

[@FrankyDCrafter]

I should do a quick video on it. Those are more for display but lately I’ve been using them more and more.

[@kellanr1941]

Yes! that would be awesome.

[@thedeaderer8791]

how do characters acsess the ledge there's no ladder or stairs do they go out the window?

[@FrankyDCrafter]

The Deaderer there are ladders I was just stupid and forgot to get a good picture 😢
