I made a Miniature HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE out of junk // Ghibli Crafts

Howl's Moving Castle. It's big (21" tall). It's heavy-ish (4.2 lbs). It's made out of junk (mostly). Help yourself to a full breakfast and strap yourself in to the merry-go-round of life for almost a full hour. In total, this project took roughly 300-400 hours spread over 60 days to complete.

[@user-we5hz7yu6v]

Genius. This is a brilliant build. As a sculptor who hasn't pressed their skills since the early 2000's and is probably way out of the loop, this is so impressive and inspirational. This is how I built things back in the day. Start with scraps and clean as you go. Bottles, boxes, found objects, tin foil, and hot glue. I once created a whole series of human-esque sculpts out of natural found items... sticks, pine cones, rocks, leaves, grass, moss, and of course my good friend, hot glue lol... they were of course unpainted so not as pretty... As an artist who is nowhere close to your level of painting skill, wow, fucking amazing... As an avid reader/writer though; one who has never seen the movie... I hate to be that person, but I'm being honest...READ IT!!! Trust me, the story is amazing. Diana Wynne Jones tells a fantastic tale and really weaves the details into her fiction. Again, I've never seen the movie, only clips, but there is a whole dynamic between Sophie and her curse of old age, and Calcifer and the house, and her own unique abilities which sets off the story that is all just so intriguing that it's wroth the read and it's honestly not too very long. Anyway, as a fan of the studio (some of my favs, Spirited Away/Ponyo/Princess Mononoke/ kiki's/etc) Studio Ghibli does an INCREDIBLE job of visually rendering the story, but truly, nothing beats your imagination and the story allows you to wonder up those ideas Jones creates. As a visual artist you will really enjoy the book because you'll have your own artistically warped interpretation of the imagery she presents... Ok, done with my middle-aged ramble...but my encouragement is to read it! lol

[@Succui]

There are truly no words to describe how incredible this is. The pure resourcefulness and skill put into this, and you make it look just so.. easy.. your creativity and care put into this project is just wonderful.

I can’t Thank you enough for your videos, they’re the beautiful love child between the peacefulness of miniature crafting and the editing of “UNHhhh” 😩🤌🏼

this is the epitome of what i enjoy on this platform, i have watched this video so many times now.

[@achisuwu7624]

This guy builds this things for us, shows us how and with what he does it just like a tutorial, does a satisfactory editing and sings us a song with their patreons names including a Rap!! It's so satisfactory watching this, I've watched it hundreds of times since it came out

The song he uses for the Patreon song is the theme from Howls Moving Castle.

[@cloudzone9297]

Not only is this a beast build, but the amount of effort that went into the editing, voice overs, sound effects, everything is over the top effort of excellence.

[@frankkahlfus1296]

the credits... hilarious1

[@sindy9369]

right! the editing made it even more fun to watch as normally i wouldn’t be able to sit down and watch a near 1 hour youtube video straight

[@NitrousOXD-wt7qe]

Everything in this video is great. Not just the castle but the editing as well. Fantastic video, thanks!

[@soyboybrin]

This video stumbling into my Recommended was both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because of how awe-inspiring, impressive, and otherworldly you made this. A curse because I found it at 10pm and HAD to watch it and am now very sleepy (worth it). Thank you for sharing your insane creativity and skill!!

[@LunaVi]

I can't even figure out how to DRAW this castle because of all the details and here u are casually building it out of random junk. It looks so good, awesome job!

[@venomgold]

if only it was random junk lol

[@NeroDeamon]

not casually, you have to treat every drawing you do as a proper project. thats where the quality comes from. this was a big project for him.

[@cody7689]

"wizard aesthetic is to build things that look like they'll fall apart as soon as they're released from your spells" so true!!!

[@blueflamefae7898]

this made me think of a dnd session where my sister's character was a wizard's apprentice and we went to the wizard's tower one day and everything inside had pretty much collapsed and stopped working and thats where her character's first "power surge" (this was homebrew, power surges were related to our goals or morals) came from and it was sad and also awesome because the power surge made everything in the tower start working again

I'm late to Studson Studio, but I'm glad I'm here. Shout out to North of the Border. This build is staggeringly beautiful. An artist's mind must be a wonderful place.

This came out two years ago but I still love watching it because this is peak determination and creativity, love this video.

[@sadiered]

Honestly, with a lot of build videos, I have them in the background while working on crafts of my own. For this one, I had to put down my crafts and just watch the almost hour of magic you put together. It's incredible how realistic, how accurate, how beautiful, and how detailed it was. Worth the wait!!!

[@HosannaRider]

I've watched this video well over 100 times in the last 2 years. It always helps me sleep on nights my anxiety blooms, or is delightful to have in the background while I work. No matter what, it's always comforting to have. It seems many commentors agree with me! Thanks for the wonderfully soothing video.

[@coltonchehowy907]

Can we all just appreciate how him rapping the Patreon names at the end was on par with his masterful craftsmanship and patience? Absolutely incredible from start to finish. The time to make this model is impressive enough, but the editing and energy put into the creation of one of the most entertaining artistic videos of our time, is unfathomable. Making sure you didn't do any without precisely recording with the notion that you would be making this video. I find this absolutely incredible.

[@idrewathing2179]

[@aerial_silks_hoop]

So, Studson finished this masterpiece and guess what? He still needed to edit the video! The planning, execution and editing of this video was a massive undertaking. It's perfection.

The last time I was this blown away, it was the Marble Machine (music Thing). This ranks right up there. You are so talented and creative and this build is beyond incredible. 👏🏼

[@JayFolipurba]

Forgot to mention: your humour and style ties it all together perfectly honestly, is this the perfect video? I loved every second of it. The build, the editing, the outro. I didn't even skip the patreon shoutouts because they were presented so well.

[@CharacterDesignForge]

Much like a can of Prangles, this project just went on and on with fun at a lengthy yet appropriate amount of msg and potato starch. I mean there's just too much to say. I'm trying to imagine the depths and lengths of time and brain it all took. How many takes did it take to blow out a candle with the push of a fire hydrant? The amount of buildings. The amount of rhinestones. The amount of saxaphone melts. The amount of child height scavenger goblin shuffles. The grillaput stop motion. The ramshackling. The... remembering where all that stuff goes and the keeping one angle of your studio clean and the supportive partner. The audio edits. The visual edits. I'm so glad this is getting the recognition of work it deserves. This is the GOOD food people. Proud of you Studson, well done.
