[@m4rkurius773]

You are my comfort creator. No matter what kind of sad or horrific news from around the world, listening and watching your stuff really lowers my blood pressure and calms the mind.

[@foxbat51]

As much as I love your channel, I just feel that crafting channels that don't involve a deep dive investigation into whether a man was hit in the face with a goose is just lacking in something now.

[@euansmith3699]

We need a cross-over between Bill, Adam Savage and the Slo-mo Guys.

[@seymour47]

Bill, as a trained coral scientist, I can look at that and see coral. Well done.

[@BillMakingStuff]

phew

[@OdaVenom]

@@BillMakingStuff don't feel relieved just yet. He didn't specified what was he looking at. Maybe everything looks like a coral to him.

[@rlightfoot9504]

Bill has given us crustard, bangarang, a fabulous coral recipe and a use for all the beads from my sister's failed etsy jewelry career. Truly a renaissance man.

[@txikitofandango]

I haven't seen a comment praising your soundtrack in a while, so ... what a beautiful soundtrack you made, it is enjoyable on its own and as an accompaniment to your videos

[@BillMakingStuff]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@iain.sm.c]

Surprised to see obscure indie film Pirates of the Caribbean being mentioned. Great job, Bill. The sense of cohesion between each mini is great, and there's so much character and story behind them.

[@Brickerbrack]

I thought the only person who ever watched those films was Michael Bolton...

[@Nathanm7977]

I am still blown away by your drawings. You make it look so simple to do but it is so detailed. And I don't believe those 2chaps at the beginning. You broke cat's legs.

[@the98themperoroftheholybri33]

Can't believe Bill told me to drink some water, water! Like what's in the toilet! I'm so offended

[@MalefaxTheBlack]

Water…that stuff fish pee in?

[@kevinbray3724]

I know, really. Dihydrogen Monoxide is one of the deadliest liquids of all time. It's horribly corrosive, is DISSOLVING our planet, kills tens of thousands a year. It's seriously deadly stuff.

[@michaelerickson7364]

I like the idea of the one with coral for a head being led by a rusty anchor chain by his comrades because he can’t see. Once conflict happens they face him toward the enemy and let him run wild toward them. Sometimes he gets the target and other times just ends up running comically for a long time until he hits something.

[@trifectumart]

New Bill faction just dropped - what a wonderful Thursday!

[@Cyborgmarsupial]

What day is it? Cool! Bi-pedal Thumbs Thingy Guy- with theCat. This dude is genius -

[@rjlatham999]

i swear I can feel my life seeping away while I wait for the sketch book to come down.

[@everettehungerford2858]

Totally want a fully custom sculpted faction! Your painting is getting better, challenging yourself is paying off.

[@nightcitynarstie]

You know what, Bill? My Dad deserves everything you say about him.

[@yaywoow]

Watching his evolution feels like just watching a hobby journey feels very organic and makes me excited for my own hobby builds

[@Formoka]

These are my favorite type of Bill Making Stuff videos. I love seeing the basic miniatures transform into unique figures and poses and characters.

[@MaxRide1]

Bill: makes underwater deep troops also Bill: still manages to get some rust in there with rust paint 🤣🤣

[@aaronglaab6304]

Thank you for the dinner entertainment! A night with bill is always a good night. (We had pizza and a couple pints btw) love the fishy bits! The bubbly eyes worked out quite well too. Im not entirely sure how you would even go about naming those guys… underwater their names would sound like ubbbbllllaaaabbbllllaaa and on land theyd be gasping for breath all with the exception of Frank who adapted more than the others and was able to belt out his name as a war cry when attacking.

[@noahk7985]

Call them The Soggy!

[@tannergee]

It will be a sad day when the sketch book is filled, there will probably be a new one, but seeing the flip through makes me kind of nostalgic past episodes. Thank goodness rewatching exists. Love your content Bill, thank you

[@MrSlimm-xv2er]

i love "The Gutterlands" squad vids keep up the good work

[@sleepingslightly]

I get sooo pumped every time you drop something new!!! Thanks for everything Bill!!!

[@Nobahdee]

That sketchbook is literally priceless. So much lore in those pages. TY for sharing that man!!

[@lukedennis2436]

Thanks for creating and being the person that you are Bill, really appreciate all you do and all you are. I’m always excited to see you create and you are one of my biggest creative inspirations by far. Thanks again for everything. (Also I have been wanting to sculpt miniatures with green stuff for some time now but have been really intimidated to do so and seeing you attempt it would give me some confidence to try it myself so I would be extremely excited to see you try miniature sculpting yourself.)

[@ragozzinehq]

Well done, Bill! Your painting has 100% grown over the years, and you can really tell the care you are using now. Care replacing crustard is a bit jarring, but I;m here for it. Also, the lore of this one reminds me "The Deep" by clipping. which you might enjoy listening to - or not! Cheers

[@goosevichiwaterdrinkerbagu7525]

Your sketch book antics persuaded me to start doing to help my world building, and i thank you so much for that. Great video btw, love the lore too, very inspiring :)

[@Powoga]

If anyone's curipus, the muscular torsos are from the Celtic Warriors from the game HAIL CEASAR There are also some Celtic Fanatics, who are _very_ naked, if that's the sort of thing you're interested in.

[@Bob_cheese-22]

I honestly aspire to be as chill and kind as Bill is. love your videos!

[@gilbertdarisse4705]

Bill's comment at the end about a skirmish game completely answered the question I was typing. SO yeah, there's that.

[@greigjohnsonmaking]

My favourite's Crab Pincer + Handgun. And they'll always be 'Pincent Vrice' to me.

[@stryke5729]

Because of his vrice like grip

[@Wildonion1]

I can't believe how well the bulbous eyes came out! It looked like it was pretty tough to get them situated, but the final product speaks for itself.

[@mattcanyon5806]

Yes we would like to see you make a miniature out of green stuff. The sea creature pirates are awesome.

[@MrMartincannon]

Love your sketch book if you ever published it I would buy it, it’s amazing

[@JanKonecny8]

"... extra se... cough cough... extra sexy" ⬆️Quote of the day

[@CGossRunnn]

In all honesty Bill, your videos are the highlight of my month.

[@craiggehlert]

the ragoon dragoons...now to go find more crab claws..Thanks again Bill for making the hobby world alil crustier.!

[@jenparrilli2803]

I think my favorite is the figure with the spear. Love the paint job! I suggest going the G.I. Joe route and create a cheesy acronym - like CRAB (Crusty Regimen Aquatic Battalion)...or something not as lame.

[@fredericthalheimer3811]

form its overall apperance I think the one pulling his sword looks the best espeially with his fishy eyes. However when it comes to creativty the DEEP trooper with the big claw and coral head is the most amazing. I would recommend Splash and Ribbons as names for them.

[@buggmoe]

Spear Claw Guy is definitely the coolest

[@marklindsey4112]

Thoroughly enjoyed that. Love a bit of kitbashing, especially when it's for original inventions like the Crusties. Gotta say that coral-headed freak is my favourite and yes, your painting is getting better and better. Also, was 'some skirmish game that'll come out in the future' something we should get excited about? Are we getting a follow up to Bangarang? I was thinking how much I'd like to see a battle report between some of your factions.

[@Phyrehawk]

I love these! I have a similar group of PotC-esque pirates/sailors in my D&D world, so I'll definitely steal some of your ideas from this video I think. :) I'm also hoping to be at the UKGE at the end of the month, so I look forward to maybe running into you (and hopefully Cat as well) for awkward conversation.

[@Craziecory]

You should call them Reefers :D (Thanks for the squarespace, I now have a website ho-ho-ho)

[@ax_3219]

I'm assembling a deep diver beadbot for bangarang, and I intended to greeble it with shells and other marine stuff, so this video is perfect ! Love what you're doing

[@olinu]

So, does the Gutter Lands have underground people? If so, I am curious what they do/they look like.

[@619Slipk]

Caught myself yeasterday with nothing to do looking for something to watch and I thought It's been a while since Bill posted a video... The man came to the rescue within 24 hours

[@nastybadger]

I was just on holiday walking along a Welsh beach picking up loads of small crab claws, I thought they may make good for a conversion project at some point. First night catching up with my favorite KZbins and what a nice surprise. Will be making a set for this faction with them for sure. Thanks Bill.

[@mariablundall2228]

The miniatures came out brilliant really impressed how you transformed the sea creatures and how you made the corals loving each video thanku Bill

[@uniquepickles6804]

that paintjob is incredible. amazing cohesion of the palette, and great highlighting!

[@Protopromi]

Yay, a new kitbashing video just dropped! This channel is a great, HUGE, source of creative inspiration. We're so back.

[@JK79lb81]

Oh these boys need a cavalry unit! Great job!

[@strawberrypuddin8919]

Seahorses?

[@BassoeG]

⁠Giant lobsters.

[@JosephVelez-z4z]

I loooovvve the little beat in the intro it has a very old school sci-fi nostalgic feel to it. I love making minis like this ice kit bashed over 150 so far. It’s very addicting.

[@dylanbuttigieg5870]

you've gotten so good at painting! it gives me hope for my own painting skills.

[@Porongutan]

i really liked the paintjob you did on them, it looks almost cellshaded

[@mangothedestroyer]

You rock Bill. These are the best painted minis ive seen so far on ur channel. My favorite is the one with the spear. His name is Greg Gore

[@TheGreatMim]

Another classic episode. Very inspiring guide to kit bashing. I enjoy watching your stuff mate, love the dry wit and chilled presentation. Your videos are always inventive and incredibly well made. You should be prescribed on NHS, you’re a real tonic mate😉

[@slimehousetv]

Big ups the painting phase, oculus orbus and of course Bill Making Stuff, absolutely genius work as always man. 🙌🙌🙌

[@BillMakingStuff]

cheers mate

[@danielhall5554]

Thanks! Can't wait for the next video. Cheers!

[@BillMakingStuff]

well thanks!

[@Eman-qv4kv]

What tool did you use for attaching the eye beads at 21:17?

[@TinyRobotED-tm9rs]

What a happy guy!

[@skellyoth]

I think you should make some hand sculpted miniatures, it sounds very entertaining

[@darthdeadpool9802]

my favortie one bill is the the crusty reaching behind his back for the sword his pose makes me think he is in charge.

[@richardhertz7345]

Same, he's clearly the leader.

[@polrua]

That was a very cool episode and something nicely different. I'd love to see you return to these guys, maybe with some suitable terrain building. Love the nod to 2000AD's Genetic Infantrymen and I agree, your painting has definitely improved. I found watching you highlighting the textures on these guys very pleasant and relaxing and they ended up looking great.

[@alvinhelms]

The texture tool you made at 23:50… when cured, how firmly does the Green Stuff hold those beads in place? It seems like they might be prone to coming loose, but I have never used Green Stuff, so perhaps it's more adhesive than I imagine.

[@TehDobster]

The Sodden. great work as per.Thanks for the continuous entertainment :)

[@sabersight908]

"im just the most unoriginal piece of sh** there is, but then so is everyone else" for real, for real xD

[@euansmith3699]

I love Bill's naturally ebullient nature, just bursts right off the screen. The sketchbook just gets more and more awesome with each passing episode. Pirate Mutants? Putants? Piratants?

[@andrewfarrington6927]

Spear guy is my favorite. And sword on back guy. And all of them.

[@RoadWarrior_John]

what'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do, when the boys in blue are coming for you, ha ha ha. Another great creation and lore drop, for the world of Gutterlands.

[@walkingtnt2582]

Thank you for the crustard recipe, I haven’t seen your videos for a while and I am thankful that I didn’t miss the recipe.

[@antoniorodrigues979]

Best video ever! Loved the crusties!!!!

[@stryke5729]

I really appreciate how bill has gone through so many of the comments it’s really awesome that he does that even though there are so many of us. Unfortunately he also gave my 88 year old grandad a swirly yesterday so the things that the podcasters said at the beginning are definitely wrong.

[@scottcrompton6931]

Another nice one, Bill! Fantastic minis, thanks for showing how it was done.

[@blakehimslhunter]

Wonderful video. Your painting has gotten better, but I love that you use that time for lore building.

[@SinfulSeraph]

Seriously love your character making, Bill!🥰

[@Lorfyed]

Oooooh, Drowned Folk from The Wandering Inn series are kinda like this new faction. I love it!!

[@thetate1]

I would love to see a crossover between you and MidWinterMini's where you build the mini and they paint it for you!

[@RoundArthur]

They look great! I think Coralface is my favorite

[@richardhertz7345]

I really can't stress enough how bad a week I had. Seeing you'd uploaded this video really cheered me up. Thanks.

[@Matt-md5yt]

new Faction means new lore in the Gutterlands.

[@iriis1]

The Chums - or the Bottom Feeders! Great work Bill! Any more Bangarang reports in the horizon ?

[@spinooti]

I really enjoyed seeing you sculpt and kitbash minis! More, please!

[@sittingstill3578]

Great new look Bill. Your beard is rocking pretty hard, my man.

[@timjones3820]

Great job! You've lit a fire under my....my....what nots. Thanks for another fun episode!

[@Pezzapoo]

Great kit bash Bill, love the variation and the crab claws. Glad you are putting the God Hands to good use

[@BillMakingStuff]

Thanks 👍

[@tristankruzen6822]

Amazing job as always Bill, also super good job on the paint. I love seeing your growth with the paint jobs man!

[@pyropoison113]

I wanted to personally thank you for inventing Grids, they're useful.

[@ndewingful]

Okay that coral method is SUPER snazzy, it looks exactly like SPS coral, complete with the bubbly look!!

[@RM-vw3ov]

You are getting better at painting Bill well done!

[@SuperMartimusPrime13]

Cat has been rebuilt! Now he can finally explain how to make crustard for me!

How do i unmake crustard? I need that water back

WE LOVE YOU BILL

[@Reformedhillbilly369]

I’m a big fan of your videos and find the stuff you make very cool (if a little outside my skill range. The range being melee). Though when you said to drill out holes in the gun barrels that blew my mind. Of all the incredible things you’ve created, that one made me go, “that’s genius.”

[@thomasjess5029]

Hey Bill, I’ve been inspired by your channel since your Gaslands video and I have amassed a collection of toy cars to build a fleet of Road Warriors. Also I’m kitbashing my own monsters using dollar store toys like what you did. I’ll upload some footage to my channel when I’m done.

[@GuillemMartínez-u3g]

You are indeed getting better at the paintjob! Looking forward to that skirmish game to see them in action!

[@Chimer24-qs5wo]

Brilliant. My favourite has to be the one with the spear and crab hand. Your painting's good. Which is hardly surprising looking at the artwork you make look so easy )O(

[@A_Random_Death_KorpOfKriegsman]

You're my favorite creator. You have inspired so many of my projects in the hobby :)

[@kymme123]

Loved this video Bill. Thank you so much!

Nothing makes me more excited than a new BMS vid. My life is very exciting.
