Wow, Dave got really slim and buff since!

[@kroxxc7065]

Ikr?! I noticed that as soon as the vid started xD

[@liamdraper3383]

It's hilarious when he goes on about the can at the start, "make sure you remove the contents of the can, weather you've eaten it or just wasted it;I'll hate you for that..." "Make sure your can is empty, why? Because if this was a full can it would be way to heavy for your terrain, you don't want to have heavy pieces of terrain because if you do you'll because you don't want to be lugging breakfast withyou while you play your game." Haha he's so funny

[@notangproductions7163]

+Liam Draper too* heavy

[@xj770HUN]

This background song is awsome! Makes me full of tension (And remind me to you are in the fogy swamp and enemy can be everywhere.

[@miniwargaming]

I totally agree. When I made the video I hadn't purchased my hot glue gun yet.

[@TheSoCalledGamer]

Dave, you are the coolest Canadian i know, granted i only know one, but still. Ps. I am from 'Murica

[@philRminiatures]

Creative and ingenious job, have to try it!

[@Scherdnr]

Great base piece of terrain to add tons of other detail to. Bolts, rivits, weld lines with hot glue, pipework, walkways, ladders, rails...all would be great directions to take something like this. What other ideas do people have that come to mind to add to something like this?

[@frosttruwen]

You're pretty awesome Dave. Since I found your terrain tutorials I have been getting a ton of ideas for my terrain/table when I get to build it. Pretty awesome sense of humor too man!

[@janjjd]

i tought it was a stupid project but it came 0ut really nice! thanks a lot dave (and the miniwargaming crew)

[@QuinnMLH]

Awesome! I can use this + your 'How to make battle ruins terrain for war games' video to make a decent amount of terrain for low cost! This channel is awesome and I love all the tutorials! Keep it up! I've subscribed!

[@Yarrick2k5]

I made a silo out of my little sisters Halloween sweet bucket. It's huge and awesome. I basically used this same method here but instead at a bigger scale.

[@joshua61991]

I think this was awesome, I am thinking that if you use smaller and thinner clear tubing, then you could make a really cool alien cryo-container. Just do the same concept but put it on the clear tubing instead. I Would paint everything first, then glue it on though because you want the "glass chamber" to be clean. Then fill the tube with water works clear plastic water (or something similar) and dye the water green, add an alien inside and maybe some oxygen tubes attached to the alien and done.

[@canisferus]

This actually end up very well

[@GoatOfTheWoods]

Besides of the tutorial, the music was awesome

[@MrZagy20]

You make epic looking terrain out of random crap.....its so cool.

[@wfTitus]

I can't believe how much weight he lost! Great video!

[@Honestinwilkesbarre]

Interestingly, in 5th grade (1973-74), we were being taught the metric system as an extra lesson section in math. The government was apparently in a hurry to get us up to speed on it. They were doing this because the U.S. was going to be completely converted to the metric system by the time we were in high school. It never happened. Also, in the U.S., we do use the imperial measurement system. But, it's technically called the British Imperial system.

[@linkinhearts666]

lol Dave is the funniest bloke! HAha keep these awesome terrain vids a comin!!

[@TheVoloch]

Instead of the usual black/grey/white paints (makes the board look a bit dull with everything painted the same colours), spray it brown adding black for shadows and red/orange/ligther browns to make it look rusty.

[@asdfasdfsadfasdfable]

Nice, this looks great.

[@courtneyallen2250]

I was confused...I subscribed just now...but had already done so previously. I'm a dork sometimes. I love mini wargaming, and your channel is DOPE

[@Emidretrauqe]

Those ridges that show should be painted blue and white to turn it into some kind of plasma generator.

[@sexyxetsu]

They can provide cover, plus they can be used as objectives in certain situations.

[@BizzLeVrai]

me too in School I am Quebecois . I learn Metric system but now I use Imperial Inch Feet just feel more natural and more easy To figure out and everybody understand.

[@Pahkasika0]

It could have used some brigter colours. a few more layers etc. but it was a "fast" project so that a nice result. A rusty can would be cool too. First red then brown then metal. as in one of the first painting turorials.

[@mikedood80]

Are you related to NigaHiga? You guys are so much alike!!

[@AllAroundPS]

I love the Space Marines vs. Orks poster in the back ground.

[@jukkis6699]

Good work, and it would be really appresiated if you would do more videos about fantasy. And you were on pils! :)

[@fingerdrop]

What a transformation. I was like, where is Dave going with this.

[@chrisgubler4631]

Can makes nice addition to my warhammer terrain

[@Zimonov]

stunningly easy to make terrain =) but it could use some rusty iron effect ;)

[@isellbeer]

I'm not quite clear on a thing or two. Can you over explain about the cans again?

[@allodea]

when you paint over metal you can scratch the paint for a cool damaged effect, just make sure the paint isnt too thick or it will look tacky

[@chriskennedy8193]

while your waiting for the glue to dry, place another can on top of it while it sits. gets it to set nice xD

[@SuperDrChappers]

thumbs up if you think dave should be a design and technology teacher

[@lamsonnguyen8162]

Nice tutorial, piece looks immaculate

[@ragnargrimnar]

Certain areas even within the USA say Pop instead of soda. In all reality it is Soda Pop, so neither is wrong. I agree that people should stop hatin

[@magnusdallas4447]

Damn, Dave got buff

[@bubzymozzop]

iv got the answer to satisfy your needs, dave!! ................. EDIBLE WARHAMMER!!

[@AlexBabcock-hw9iz]

Rubber bands would of been very handy to hold them in place while the white glue (we call it Elmers Glue in the states). I save the straws off of those juice boxes they make great pipes and such to glue to things like that. Adds a little more detail and color to them keeps em interesting.

[@wereross]

ahh this is brilliant i've been needing some terrain and this'll make it easy ^^

[@Wurchin]

Darn! I'm fresh out of fune. Guess I'll have to go buy some. Awesome video.

[@KOAHUNT3R]

Lol I'm gonna probably make a whole bunch of these cuz their so cool looking

[@lukedoherty9494]

i think it was a good vid. funny with loads of good ideas

[@tef803]

I respect that he calls it a pop can... #burghthing

[@Seoshinawi]

Looking good, gonna try this one out! Even got the BR-box =)

[@MrAdrianSW]

What? Wait!?. A pop / soda can... That wasnt in the "what you need" part!. I was totaly unprepaired for that!. What a gip!. Dave, stop taking the meds and focus man!! ;-P

[@livelifelovedie1]

Love the black spray paint can xD

[@cripsmafia]

not wise to say that in front of MWG fans :P plus their are many uses for this u have about 3 a battle bunker and some street terrain and i made a winter assult on a wepons depo. so theres somthin for ya,heres a good scenario too if u actually use the space hulk peices as units like me :P i use the dead space marines as an artifact and the imperial troops must retrive it from the opposing army ,not perfect but its a game have fun with it :)

[@mrvenusk98]

so simple yet amazing!

[@FallenKane]

"getting completely off topic here" ROFLMAO!!!!! xDD

[@AdamNess-greylurk]

Stranger than the Pop/Soda or the metric/imperial distinction is the "PVA Glue". I don't know anyone in the USA who calls white glue "PVA Glue" Although, we in Minnesota in the USA also call it Pop.

[@Sirdeathvids]

Adam Ness Wargamers call white glue PVA glue for some reason

[@gunner678]

Adam Ness what is PVA glue called in the USA?

[@AdamNess-greylurk]

"white glue" or "craft glue", as far as I've ever seen

[@gunner678]

Adam Ness thanks.

[@40kchaoslord]

I agree with minitzonthesun i think a nice big battle report featuring all the terrain you guys showed us how to make would be excellent it would show us the terrain in action! anyways i like the terrain here, its simple and you could kick out a dozen of em pretty easily

[@AviectusG]

it was a feature for ppl that have subed years back when youtube launched!

[@ColCaffran]

2. No one thought that the Inch and Foot was related to pyramid building until the 1600's, by the end of the 1800's no believed either it had been debunked so to speak. 3. The entire ship design of the Romans was stolen from the Carthaginians. 4. Actually the Roman Gladius was more closely related to the Celtiberian's Sword than to the Greek.

[@MultiLordHelmchen]

Very nice! thanks!

[@nacktmuell123]

i think you should have painted the can in a rusty look, with tin bitz as first coloer, drybrushed on, then boltgun metal drybrushed gently over it:D

[@Darforl]

metric system is simply superior in every way to the imperial. Nice video!

[@hobbesthebrainslug12]

Do you have Khorne in a can Miniwargaming? Well you better let the poor guy out!

[@cooljdl03]

LOL bro, im an Assie livin in America so i've heard it called both. BTW my family in Australia call it Fizzy.

[@Max-ou4zg]

I miss the days back then when miniwargaming was entertaining

[@ROTSTarge]

how long did it take to get used to painting where the camera was, instead of closer to you?

[@FoktiDavid]

i just use a gluegun and i can make one in 10 minutes. its cool. thanx dave

[@Utgarman]

"Welcome too a exclusive members only video" put up on youtube... yeah

[@Not_So_Super_Mario]

awesome videos....subed

[@ravenshotred]

I didn't know Khorne came in a can. Also, What Chaos god is Pork n' Beans?

[@FalloutLad316]

your daughter is a great artist

[@johnanthonyr.9695]

Is this just scenery or does this come in handy on the battlefield

[@TheKsalad]

I made a tall one out of a Pringles can! :D

[@MichaeltheCrank]

Yellow PVA glue sets up MUCH faster. Thick super glue would be faster yet (but cost more)

[@101bluedrop]

ahhhhh dave is in a funny mood!

[@Blackivar]

truely the easyest and simplest terrian piece to make still miss Dave trying to distroy a Tv to make bubker terrian lol

[@johuotar]

Woah! over 10 min vid!? How is this possible?? O.o

[@nathanbradley1444]

Nyaaa Dave in a funny mood :D

[@MrLowgaz]

Heya, while you talked bout the spray paint you reminded me! My brother does graffiti or what its called, and im wondering if its smart to basecoat my models with his color spray cans?, Cuz its alooooot cheaper than using an normal GW white spray right? xD

[@THISISSPARTA827]

Dave, you are so funny XD!

[@FlamingGerkins]

can food does taste great =) !!!!

[@chesterbriddon2278]

i used yellow on the serrated or ( nobly ) bits and it made it look like it was glowing

[@kidurama]

Nice guys WD

[@thejuggernaut4499]

that product placement though...

[@jonthhe914]

nice and thank you

[@SoloLlamameDiego]

Title: factory from a can, woohoo Intro: morale discussion 'bout healthy and hobbies

[@Spiderwerda]

that spray has an image from Munchkin Chthulhu - Shog - goth :D

[@AKKUPATI]

cool idea

[@koekhapper]

@SuperDrChappers I think it's better to clone him, so we get more videos, and he can be a teacher at the same time.

[@zebrakki668]

actually this was good:)

[@WARLog403]

That would make an awesome silo for a mill or something.

[@FoktiDavid]

@1010thewarhammer its a factory terrain.

[@WhiteShadowZO]

BAWLS! I love taht drink

[@joranm6502]

Nice

[@Redrik666]

this is really complex i just use a soda can and a tiny bit of card board and it comes out just as good

[@elguebon23]

That's kool!

[@bushwhackedonvhs]

Will superglue also work for this project?

[@mrbanana69]

Dave unleashed Khorne from the latter can

[@juliasullivan5267]

Wow, you've really lost weight in your face Dave.

[@Tim85axira]

A can of KHORNE And a box of KHORNE flakes I sence that Miniwargaming Dave likes Khorne...

[@cmm119]

haha, look at the shape of the glue at 12:17

[@EDzzzzz13]

what is a white pva glue???

[@TimmyTheNerd]

Using this video to make an Ork Power Generator. HUZZAH!

[@williamtom0]

its easily possible, i hate it when people think there is accually no way to go over 10m
