Why this mech carries an orange tree | Beyond the Blight swamp diorama

[@Crafterman535]

Even without the lore, just the visual story telling of the walker itself is amazing

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks!

[@burcuselvictoria3422]

Dude if you would put lights under the walker it will look sick

Yes

I absolutely love everything about this build! The story, the aesthetic, the design-build process, amazing work! I'm looking forward to exploring this world you are building.

[@gameyybuilds]

Glad you like it!

same with me😊😊🤗🤗

A lot of it is proper dark but it really fits.

[@1998HondaCivicEK1]

Man, on top of how good your builds, storytelling, world building and video editing is, I absolutely love your sketches! Do you have somewhere where you post them? Would love to see more of your drawing!

[@gameyybuilds]

Not yet. I used to draw more, but I really only draw for my concepts for these models now. And a lot of what I do is strictly digital, though I'm keeping the resolution very high so that I can (possibly?) do something with it in the future.

This may be my favorite beyond the blight built yet! This is amazing!

[@gameyybuilds]

Glad you like it! I was a little unsure going into this project if it would turn out how I envisioned, but I think in the end this might be my second favorite (I still prefer my Mabbit bot a bit over this!).

[@closer2theheart684]

My new favorite channel. I've made a few scratch-build droids, but this guy is on another level. I think I'm going to get back at it. The inspiration brought on by this amazing content.

[@PKTCrafts]

What a lovely and sad story! A great build as always. Looking forward to seeing the world expand

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks man, working on the next one right now!

[@Vagabond_rfC]

35 seconds into the first video on your channel, aaaand: SUBSCRIBED! I'm throughoutly impressed by the quality of your videos, Eric. - The build itself is both creative and impressive. - The fact that it's story driven is just genius. And the way you introduce it, bit by bit, just works. - Your narrator style does everything justice, by being both informative and funny. I spurted out a loud laugh, when you mixed the basing material. All in all, your channel and its content is a true gem, and I felt like taking the time to comment on the video and let you know! Best regards, Casper

[@gameyybuilds]

Very kind of you! Thanks Casper!

[@diomyrama]

Amazing work as usual! I am so curios about beyond the blight and looking forwards to your next build. Don't change a thing, your editing and crafting are outstanding 👌🏼

Great! I’m looking forward to starting the next one this weekend!

Excellent build! Love the story behind the mech

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks a bunch! Love your work!

[@emeeul]

This is amazing! I discovered you by accident - our 5 yo son loves to watch model builds (and create his own from PlayDoh). He’s watched a couple of your builds. The storytelling is awesome. My wife and I aren’t even into science fiction but wow. Do you do this professionally? You have so many talents. A real inspiration to our kid - thank you.

[@gameyybuilds]

Awesome, I get so much inspiration from other artists on KZbin so I’m humbled to be able to pay it forward! This is just a hobby for me, but I hope to compile my stories into a book one day.

[@earlware4322]

​@@gameyybuildsA Beyond the Blight book?? 😱 That would be so fricken' awesome!! While watching a few of these builds I have started playing an animated show in the back of my head, similar to "Love, Death, and Robots" or even a "Tales from the Loop" live action series. Definately interested in the book, maybe one day it will get turned into a limited series...🤔💙👍

[@madihunt1277]

Wonderful build video, and the storyline is great! Looking forward to further installments and watching your subscriber numbers rise. I learnt a great deal from your process and embracing the attention to detail. Bravo artiste

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks!

[@restock_1731]

Your imagination and creativity are top notch. This looks so awesome and the story behind it makes it that much of a better build. Fantastic work. 👍

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks so much for that input, it really helps to know that I’m on the right track!

[@restock_1731]

@@gameyybuilds I can't believe I missed the last few videos. I'm gonna binge a few rn. 👍

[@BM-yy8db]

This is lovely! I know I'm 8 months late with this, but if you need an idea for a future build, maybe a follow-up would be cool, of a fully grown enormous orange tree with what remains of the now long broken walker underneath/entangled in the roots, having never found a place to plant it but always having kept it safe and nourished

[@SPQRKlio]

Or a small grove of young orange trees scattered around it...? The lore story broke my heart (in a good way), and I want to imagine a happy ending for the tree (and happy-ish for the walker having unknowingly fulfilled its duty). I do have to applaud the power of leaving it open for us to feel compelled to complete the rest of the story! 🙂

[@earlware4322]

​@@SPQRKlioYeah, I kind of saw a trail of little orange trees wherever an orange fell off the back of the walker. Maybe have a map as backdrop for a future build showing the journey of the walker across the country with little orange icon for all the new trees that spramg up along the way.

[@anikavanzijl2179]

Oooh I am really loving the lore and how you develop it upload by upload... I think this is my favorite Beyond the Blight build thus far🤩! Cannot wait to see what else you thought out for this universe😆😆 Thank you once again for your vidoes, they really inspire me!

[@gameyybuilds]

Awesome, and I'm having fun making them!

[@loodlebop]

[@tomtruesdale6901]

You always gotta read that fine print! Great walker and I love the mushroom molding technique 👍 And, of course, the duckweed.

Oooooooo, I picked one of these up at dollar tree months ago and wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with it but this is giving me some ideas Beautiful build

[@MechbossBoogie]

I need to channel some of this diorama energy of yours. I'm looking at building a Contemptor Dreadnought, but not in a fighting pose. I want it to represent the fragmented remaining humanity behind the soul locked inside the walking coffin. I want him sitting or kneeling and taking care of bonzai trees. If you want some good spray paint that has a proper matte try blackboard paint.

[@encouragingthings]

Great video and wonderful story! I liked the techniques you used to get everything looking as good as it does. A lot of techniques I've seen are way above my skill level (like a 12 hour tree), but what you've shown here is in my comfort zone and I can't wait to try it myself! Thank you!

A couple of days ago, I commented on CC minis that it was nice, when you've watched all of your favorite crafters' videos, to find a new one that's really good at making thing and videos... And then I'd watched all of his videos too... So in a few days, I'll have watched all of yours too. and I'll be back where I'd started x) Seriously though, your stuff is awesome. Congrats

Awesome work. Apologies if someone else has said this, but another way to get rid of bubbles in epoxy is if you place the epoxy into a vacuum tank and pull the bubbles out yet way. It should make it a lot quicker and less labour intensive for you.

Such artistry. The forlorn delicate web of life you imagined here with the last orange tree and the important quest of the unaware robot reminds me of our own lives as humans. Not really knowing our purpose, but proceeding anyway. We can never fully be sure if our effort amount to anything at all, but in case it does we proceed with gusto, and in doing so, look back to find that we have lived after all. Our world is enriched by the messages told from your imagination. Thankyou so much.
