Nice one getting back to an old project and see it through. I am just starting out and of course went out and spent 700 bucks first trip to hobby store. Its been 4 mos and i have finish 4 projects...small projects but i got better on each build by watching yours and others youtube videos. Thank you for inspiring us all bro!!!

[@MyklCarlton]

Loot does excellent work and has just started a separate project with sci-fi characters, creatures and terrain! But they'd look a bit lonely without your wonderful terrain to inhabit.

[@AnimationsCraftingMore]

Well done! Good that you didn't gave up ;)

[@RPRsChannel]

You have forgotten something: you have children. Next time, make them make the shingles.

[@aerial_silks_hoop]

Wow, that's pretty awesome

[@Nerdforge]

This looks sooooooooo gooooood dude! Have wanted to do a similar project for so long, so taking a lot of inspiration from this!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Heeyyyyy thank you so much you guys and for taking the time out of your crazy schedule to stop by and watch and comment! Really, means a lot.😊 And yeah, would absolutely LOVE to see you're take on something like this!!

[@tc_kommark]

I didn't know you watched him too! I'm subscribed to both of you!

Of course Martina is here for this.

[@MaxDMCrafting]

This project was A REFERENCE for us all making fantasy terrain! Those techniques and your attention to the details inspired me so much! Thanks for sharing this final chapter, I feel like now the circle is complete. THANK YOU!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Thanks man, really very much appreciated :)

[@lyndilou6314]

Love how it turned out. The windows are perfect and blacksmithing the door hardware was genius and added that distinct RTH touch. Spectacular!

[@johnmcmahon9087]

I agree with you whole heartedly, this work is inspired and amazing. Although I’d be lying if I said I didn’t cringe a little when I saw the vice and hammer on the granite benchtop 😨

I remember being really amazed at the tavern build project, can't believe it's been so long since you had started it. Good on you for going back to it!

[@nekrataali]

Yeah I remember this was the first video I watched on this channel and it got me to subscribe. I refuse to believe that was 3 1/2 years ago.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

haha that's so awesome. Really cool to see who's been around since that video. And yeah man, time flies!

[@tedhoward573]

Neil, amazing work!! So glad you went back and finished this. Everything happens at the right time. You should be extremely proud at this wonderful accomplishment. It’s unbelievable.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Thank you Ted. Really appreciate that my friend. :)

[@thunderballz74]

Absolute master class my friend!!!

[@WiseOldBill]

being reminded of your old tavern build has the same feeling as opening an old box and finding a mini you've not seen for 10 years and used to love

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Awe great comment. 🥰

[@TheKiltyONeal]

Glad to see the tavern finally finished! I counted "ahead" 62 times.

[@aaronbono4688]

When do you ever work a simple project? You are a sign of a true perfectionist, and you do incredible work.

[@rthomas1031]

Wow! Layers upon layers of Awesomeness!

[@johnwimbush]

Baldur's Gate Inn music; fantastic! Spent almost as many hours playing that as you did making those shingles.

[@theladyamalthea]

I know this project took a long time, but the effort was NOT wasted! That is the most beautiful tavern I have ever seen!! (Love the Baldur’s Gate music at the end)!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Thank you so much. You're too too kind :)❤️

[@alldayubum]

I agree

[@MeIsJuD]

It's super helpful to hear these kinda stories. I find myself in this situation alllllll the time...

[@matildaagren6212]

You are a total madman. Period. Just starting on a project like that is insane, and to be able to finish it… Hats of man.

[@adenydd2932]

Everything about this is simply awesome, you've nailed the medieval look and the camera work is impeccable!

[@mxpxdude]

Is not a bad thing you were not the 'youtuber' you are now. How this project started made me start this hobby in the first place. Fact is, you're still an amazing artist.

[@jencrosby6065]

Gorgeous tavern! So I came here looking for inspiration for my first building. I’m thinking I’ll start with just a playable first floor. But I can always add more floors and a roof later! When you were doing the plaster walls I got the idea to put the plaster in a squeeze bottle or cake decorating bag. I think that would make those fiddley bits easier.

[@danzoo6711]

dud what is this production quality. the edits, the slow paning camera time-lapse, insane. great job! and then the actual project itself. even crazier. I mean REAL METTAL! come on that's the best thing ever. you have blown my mind. and this is only the first video I watch by you. can't wait to get to see the rest! amazing work!

[@HighEyeWorkshop]

Just got round to watching this. Great video, great piece, and impressive (and appreciated) candidness. Enjoyed this a lot. I feel like I've burned out on loads of projects, and none so complex as this.

[@gymnosophist7471]

This is my favourite of all your projects and I was pleased to see it finally finished! What I love most is that it is entirely your own work and your own ingenuity , and doesn’t rely on 3D printed parts or store-bought embellishments. Great work! 🙂

[@АленаВ-к9л]

Yes, I lake this too!

[@gettingpolitical]

Remember the old paper cut outs lol To this day I still build all my buildings, land marks, etc out of card board and craft paper. Love it all

[@ferbieticklater7429]

Just come back from a holiday and I subscribe to over 40 KZbin channels so you can imagine I have a LOT of vids to catch up on. I have to confess to skipping through some of them and some I didn't even look at then I came to this vid. I am a tank modeller, world war II in particular, but I also like diorama modelling vids and that is how I came to subscribe to RTH. I started to watch thinking it's not too long see how it goes... OMG ! the patience you have to make a model in such detail amazes me. This is brilliant work and I am so glad I didn't skip over it. Looking forward to the next one that I will definitely NOT skip over. Stay safe friend!

[@jae509]

This is the kind of work my a level art teacher expects from me in a month

[@RaiderAvian]

I watched the old video and remember you doing the stairs, fire place, and the walls. I am glad to see your making a video coming back to the tavern.

[@TabletopWitchCRAFT]

Nice to see this one through Neil… great job.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Hey thanks man :)

[@MaxRomantschuk]

Great work sticking to it and finishing the project! It’s never easy once you’ve put something aside. Congratulations!

[@ronaldboal7500]

That is THE BEST scratch built tavern/inn/house that I have ever seen. I can understand burn out when taking on that level of project. Awesome job!

[@MonkeyJedi99]

Wow. This was WAY more detailed and realistic than I would ever have tried. - For shingles, I use food box cardboard cut into individual shingles, and use a bad brush to apply texture paste to get the wood grain. The big 'trick' for the shingling is to run a course of half-length shingles on the bottom edge of the roof to give the bottom course of full-size shingles the right profile. This is a trick I got from someone who actually roofed with cedar shingles. Oh, and for where two roof planes meet in a valley, I first put down a full-length folded piece of the cardboard, to later paint as corroded copper, or oxidized lead. This is also something done on real cedar or slate shingled roofs.

[@1stEldestWolf]

I love the Old Bulder's Gate 1 shout out at the end. "Is clean as an Elvern's ars!" Miss that game. XD

[@7Prayoga]

dude...its obviously you are a master of it and i think you are very enjoy at it, you have one new subscriber. its AMAZING

OUTSTANDING 🤘🍻

[@riflemanslament9594]

Epic!!!!!! Mine has been sitting on the shelf for a year. Going to finish it now awesome! Gonna get some merch too. God speed out there

[@michellerabey6637]

How fitting, I watched this video ages ago when I originally found this channel and now it's the first one I come back to!

[@alexeyagapov4205]

That's it. This right here is the inspiration I've been looking for. While there are many cool crafts out there, this one goes beyond simply cool and ticks all my boxes. Atmospheric low-fantasy looking color palette? Check. Charming irregular shingles? Check. Cozy windows one could sit in front of while lecturing four hobbits on the Ringwraiths and being 100% badass? Check. Incredible woodwork around the doors and windows? Check. Reasonably small size instead of huge 5-inch ceilings? Check. Baldur's Gate reference in the mix? Check. This is incredible. Thank you very much for sharing this!

[@TheAbsolutecad]

It looks really good. Doesn't matter if it took 3.5 years - you didn't have the skills and vision when you started, but you DID start and thus committed yourself to complete it when you knew enough to do it justice Congratulations, Sir. Be proud

[@jeremygriffin620]

That is just gorgeous. Your window idea is inspiring, I want to make a whole sheet and see if I could neatly cut out as needed. Heck, it would go far to making 3d printed houses look 100% better.

[@owenvanbruchem1863]

The base was the furst video i watched from u so im watching you almost 4 years thats crazy

[@hightechoger]

Awesome build. The black smith surprise is an amazing detail. It's good to see this project being finished. And wow, how it turned out.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Thanks Julian, and glad you liked the black smithing there. Hope it was a good educational experience for you!

[@dr_knots]

I love that I started watching this years ago and now got to see it finished. Awesome work!

[@mjpete27]

Well Sir, I admire your decision to go back and finish this epic project! I am a newer sub and I remember my first abandoned project. I had only my local hobby store for support and the owner was not as encouraging as the train guys that I met there while shopping. I attempted a train depot and I kept working on it for months before I let my brother destroy it with pyrotechnics that he was learning about for movie model production. This hobby has become something else entirely than when I first started in 1967! Yep that’s the date of my first creation. I admire your diligence and artistry, and I have taken very small steps to go back to making, thank you for sharing your expertise and just being a resource for inspiration and encouragement! Amazing construction Neil, truly amazing!

[@leesims5280]

When you started talking about why you Shelved the project I was like "oh, this is exactly like my FIRST project ever" XD. I actually started modelling because I saw your videos! thanks for getting me into one of my favorite things ever, MODELING! Also Super Awesome to finally see this one come off the shelf in the back of your videos and BE the actual video lol. It looks great!

[@heero1224]

If nothing else, the Baldur's Gate sound bites at the end make this perfect.

[@manlymanyo2511]

Absolutely FN AMAZING. Great job

[@DarkMatters96]

Oh, Neil, my terrain journey was also overshadowed with going for way too complex project (Hagrid's hut diorama actually) in the very beginning. But just as you did, I still managed to find resources (thanks to the YT crafters' wonderful community and my girlfriend's support) to finish that abandoned project. Despite some scale and other small mistakes, it came out supercool overall! I'm so proud of myself that I accomplished this task and didn't give up. That's the most rewarding thing ever.

[@diyhometheaterguy]

Wow. Just wow.

[@GoblinPrincessKyo]

Ah yes, newbie burn out is REAL! We start out with so much enthusiasm we think we can take on anything!!! I'm a newbie in this type of craft right now hehe. I made the exact same mistake on my own youtube channel which was scary stories. I decided to do the entire month of October with a video every single day... boy did that get stressful FAST! I of course ended up giving in to the stress after a few weeks of editing and recording literally 23 hours a day. That was like 2ish damn years ago!! I'm only now planning a comeback to my channel but this time i'm gonna include everything i love doing like crafting instead of super focusing on one type of video and I defo will not be getting myself into far too big a project far too fast again. Your Tavern is freaking awesome and well worth the wait.

[@jennylawson1980]

Good for you for going back and finishing the “old” and the 😟 dreaded. I have a few projects like that boxed still bc of a move and I have used every excuse for oh the past few years not to finish…if a talented miniaturist and creator can take a step back in time…maybe in the near future I should too. Awesome project!!! It’s so realistic. You did incredible and oh the patience lol. It’s got to feel good to have this done.

[@Bartyron]

Don't be hard on yourself. It's great work. I have projects stored in my shed for over ten years. And i didn't even film it. You do an awesome job!

Looks amazing! I really love the use of wood and metal, gives it way more of an authentic look to it than the 3D printed / plastic stuff.

Glad Loot is supporting you - I've been subbed to them since March, and love their stuff!

[@MrAbel_C]

Just a fantastic finish to a fantastic build! So glad to have been a viewer for these past few years!

[@jamie69murphy]

Glad you went back to it. Great job as always dude! These early videos first attracted me to your channel, so really pleased to see this finished.

[@jetswift]

Really glad you finished this. I watched your early video of it back in the day. To be honest, thought it was another KZbinr as your production has changed so much. I don't do any terrain building and pretty much hate basing my minis, but love your content. Keep going, it's inspirational! :)

[@gettingpolitical]

I did a 7 floor (each floor removable and playable) castle keep, so yea I feel your pain lol. Your build came out beautifully and I loved watching every min of it.

[@cheezunriceramen8995]

I wondered what had happened with this thing. I realize that this was one of your first videos, but I refuse to accept that this was one of your fist projects ever. I was blown away by the very first episode, and everything since then has been phenomenal. Your skill is amazing. Congrats on finally finishing a lurking project. We all have them. haha. It looks absolutely amazing!

[@Steam-Pack]

Absolutely fantastic!! A wonderful and unique castle. Great respect for this brilliant achievement. I've watched these videos many times and can't get enough of them. Best Regads Chris

[@SirDizarm]

Very happy to see the end video I have been waiting for all this time, and I really hate burnout. Have it myself with some projects I have started making, and have people wanting me to finish them so they can buy the stuff but when you don't feel good you just cant finish them. Good that you feel good again mate! Just love this project you made and its one of my favorite houses I ever seen so thumbs up! And even if you never done something like this before its still a very awesome house and one of many I hope!

[@sc0or]

Would you like to use veneer for shingles Sir? It can give you a desired thickness I think (with removing some fairy tale style of course).

[@MonkeyJedi99]

I love the look of the pencil holder grate! I have been using the plastic canvas also known as "granny grate", which is a pain to paint, being a very slick plastic. I end up having to use a self-etching primer from a spray can as the first layer.

[@08benc]

Definitely reminds me of the homes on Fable 2, great job man 👍🏼

[@Skyliner03]

@@RealTerrainHobbies exactly ... one would change into one's clothes in the locker room, no washrooms, toilets, money would be exchanged for the payment of the Middle Ages, and prices would be as they used to be, maybe prices would be low or affordable so that the tavern would not go bankrupt, but tourism, and Traffic would always be 100% or more every day.
