[@TabletopTime]

Neil, this was mind blowing! We're all so amazed by the results, and proud to have been included. Thank you for all your kind words, for inspiring all of us, and for including our story in your project!!

here here!

[@Lisa-nm8ij]

Cigar guy fits amazing there. He is my fave, despite Eve looking so cool.

[@narratordave7831]

@@Lisa-nm8ij He was my favorite too, the custom posing options from hero forge where I could really get in and angle and shape his hands make him look very natural, and the OSL and positioning in the diorama make him stand out.

[@trevorpierce9341]

keep these Collabs coming!! such a perfect pairing TTT and RTH, perfection.

[@Peron1-MC]

@@Lisa-nm8ij yeah the fake object lighting is a genious idea :)

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Cooooooooool!!!!!!!!! That rooftop bar with the outdoor patio is sooo good. Congratulations Neil, you've outdone yourself.

[@sudeepsherly8811]

Yeah it is so cool 😀

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Heyyy thanks Brent!

[@StudsonStudio]

So incredibly cool! The vast breadth of your skills is always such a joy to watch. I am dizzy thinking about wiring up those tiny tiny LEDs.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Hey dont know how I missed this but thanks man!! Much appreciated :)

[@narratordave7831]

I am extremely excited to watch this! Whatever you make, its Reboot Canon now!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Heyyy thanks Dave! Had I known this before hand I might have had a little fun with this hehehe 😁

[@Miscast]

This is unreal! Wow, really amazing Neil.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Thanks Trent!!

[@bluedog843]

I’ve had so much school work to do this weekend and I just finished. Decided to unwind and pull up KZbin and this is the first thing in my feed. Lets. Frickin. Go.

[@lochieaxon]

It was great collaborating on the billboard designs with you! They came out amazing and the entire diorama looks incredible!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Hey thanks Lochie! Your designs are amazing and yeah, really glad they ended up lighting as well as they did!!

[@cheezunriceramen8995]

You feel overwhelmed. You feel out of your league. You constantly ask yourself "how did I get myself in this position?" You've never been shy about feeling that way and that's great. I've been there. Most days at work in fact. Take a breath. You're absolutely KILLING IT. Full stop. Insane detail and insane complexity. You are, without question, one of the best diorama/terrain builders out there. I could only hope to get where you, Jazza, Luke Towan, Black Magic Craft, DMscraft, Wyloch, , RP Archive and the rest are. Every video is a treat and stretches the bounds of what is "possible." You are a master at what you do, mostly because you keep pushing the line. You keep learning and testing and innovating and it's just... fun to watch you. I doubt I will ever make a Cyberpunk diorama. Or a 3 floor tavern. Or a wizard tower on the coast. But I know where to source my inspiration, so thank you. Tabletop crafting is in VERY good hands.

[@Powdah]

We don’t have canals but we have a river with walkways along it in Melbourne that’s dirty and full of rubbish so you’re not too far off 😉

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

lmao 😅

[@AvoidTheCadaver]

We have a river in Sydney that was concreted over and most people who live near it have always thought of it as a storm water canal lol. More sadly. It's named after James Cook

[@eighth08]

Some of the older parts of the Greater Adelaide area have some large floodways. When they get full you probably could use them as a canal.

[@szabib8048]

This looks amazing! The end result recording could just move a tiny bit slower so we have time to look around and appreciate all the details! It is definitely worth all the effort you've put into.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Fantastic Neil! Pushing techniques to the next level can be a painful process, but the juice is worth the squeeze! Always blown away by the scope and ambition of your projects.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Thanks Eric!! Painful is right lmao! At least it was a good learning opportunity.... I guess.😆

[@yellheahtris]

"Patience is a virtue.. unfortunately." I feel that way too much. I'm hopping over as a sub from TableTop Time, and leaving a sub of this channel! This was insane to watch come together! You captured the feel of Reboot PERFECTLY! The lighting is just beautiful, and the background storytelling is just amazing! My mind is sincerely blown, this is incredible!!

[@mybecember]

I was wondering if this was inspired by jazza and friends over at tabletop time or if they had in fact asked you to make it (seeing as they said they asked others to make stuff) Happy to see you and jazza are still doing stuff together! I found your channel thanks to him! Keep up the good work and I’m looking forward to the next one!

[@BillMakingStuff]

loved the little stop-gap animation in there

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Yeah I wasn't sure that was going to work out and felt I was just procrastinating while playing with that thing, but it turned out to work quite well! haha

[@BillMakingStuff]

@@RealTerrainHobbies it was smooth, very pro. I do stop gap animations every episode but they are rough as hell!

[@motwaaagh]

2:11 I never skipped to the end this stuff is my ASMR. I love watching it it's therapeutic in a way.

[@NightWink129]

I was thinking the same thing! I almost didn't even realize I started relaxing; it was so unexpected.

[@casztc9874]

You know, with this model you added another whole new dimension to the Reboot campaign and made it just that much more real. This is awesome! What you created...I am speechless. I wish I could see this model in real life. 😩

[@jherazob]

As a fan of cyberpunk for many years this is so freaking great! :D Ah, by the way, the trick to use straws to shape/contain the flexible lights to make neon signs was clever as hell!

[@preetipothen3727]

This guy is the best KZbinr I've ever seen...he's a prodigy but stays so friendly with his subscribers! Such a cool combo broheem!! Lots of love from South India!!

[@MojaveModelRailroad]

Glad to see I'm not the only one that enjoys a glass of wine while working on projects. Thank you for the video. I am working on an Area 51 theme for part of my model railroad and you gave me some great ideas for the neon look. Just freaking awesome! Now go enjoy another glass of wine.

[@lesleyyoung5730]

WOW, amazing job! That turned out so well. I would have liked to of seen the random, wandering wizard gnome, to go by and open his robe to flash us, to reveal he's wearing the new merch. And red lights on the cctv cameras too. Absolutely impressive build!

[@NothingToSeeHere32]

The production value on these videos is by far the best of any hobby channel!

[@russianspy8202]

I'm at a loss for words!! You're really talented and the result is truly amazing, never stop doing what you do!

[@georgiee00]

Fun fact! Melbourne in Australia is actually built on top of a huge river (Yarra)! so the canals aren't actually that far off as a concept :D

[@RadioStaticLive]

Thank you for helping bring one of my favorite stories come to life. The model looks amazing! I am so amazed at the support that this campaign has gotten. I remember when they did Rouge Star 4 years ago and they came back with so much support for Reboot, it’s insane. You definitely made this long time fan of Table Top Time really really happy. Thank you again.

[@fulvousmacshiddenhobbyworl5567]

Okay I came here 1 minute in to comment I was excited that Neil mentioned blender... then as I reach for my keyboard he mentions Jazza's channel... so much awesome... okay now I watch more from Real Terrain Hobbies!!!

[@KnarbMakes]

So many LEDs, that must have taken forever to wire up. The end result is worth it, well done!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Hey thanks Knarb! Yeah man, the wires were a mess and very time consuming. :P Those tiny suckers were a PITA to work with😝

[@karinac4245]

This is insanely cool! All those details like graffiti on the sides of the buildings, the trash in the water, the LIGHTS! What a treat!

[@413NH]

I've been waiting for someone to tackle a project on this scale with Arduino - between the electrical, modeling, 3D printing, painting, photography, and other skills, many people won't understand how great in scope this project really is. You should be very proud. Thank you so much. It looks awesome and I wouldn't mind seeing a video with the "fixed" lighting effects so long as it doesn't drive you crazy!

[@gaslitworldf.melissab2897]

With the story, I have to say this might be my favorite of all I've seen you do, even more than the larger projects. My bias is my love of sci-fi, especially with teeth in dark fantasy and dystopianism. Even the narration rocked. I would love to see this expanded - Part II - The Reboot - Continues.

[@Beabe880]

As a TTT fan and having followed this campaign since it's beginning...this is AMAZING!!!! I literally got chills on this reveal!!! So great!

[@Quick-Silver206]

Dude that lighting is awesome.

[@justanotherloreaddict]

It always amazes me how crazy talented people can be, and how great collab projects can be. This was truly epic!

[@johannahunderwood4596]

So much work involved in producing this - a true labour of love!

[@christineingram55]

Absolutely amazing .All the detail you put into this is incredible.A lot of hard work but well worth it.The figures helped to bring it to life 🥰

[@cartoon80s90s]

You are a wizard and this is another stunning piece. I especially like how the ad boards look. Great job, as always.

[@chrismaxwell3076]

Love your content!!

[@Thaumh]

That transparent green 3D printed items gave me a great idea. Make a Hero Forge figure then print it with that stuff. Have an LED lighting the figure up from within (or up the legs maybe), then use that for a Pepper's Ghost illusion in a Haunted House diorama.

[@robinwesterlund5563]

Wow Niel... wow! Mind blowing details and sureal hardwork!

[@_potat0729]

Part 1 got me so excited for this video!

[@rasonh2491]

With all the small details and accessories and what not, this might just be your most awe-inspiring video yet.

[@SurinaSlackArt]

Dude your ideas for these projects are on another level!

[@thecraftingbrothers9448]

You are amazing... I try to channel my inner "Real Terrain Hobbies" every time I try to build something. Thanks.

[@rdoetjes]

A tip for the next time. What would be a better approach in the future is to have these LEDs on a PCB as that mounts cleanly in the awesome enclosure that you build. On that pcb is an i2c multi IO Port and if needed (depends on the amount of LEDs the current draw and the multi IO ic) a driver. These can be done in SMD, it can be soldered by hand. Then you only have 3 wires come out. The i2c data and the VCC and GND. My mindset is, the least amount of wires need to be run. MCP23018 is 16 bit out and you can daisy chain them because they use i2c In case you need more individual led control. And you can also get LCD panels that are i2c driven so you can make an animated billboard for the next one :) Nonetheless the diorama is awesome!

[@MechanicalFiend]

Such a neat project, was definitely looking forward to seeing everything lit up together. The signs seriously turned out so cool, love all the variety and colors- really makes a night scene. Amazing!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Gah, can't believe I missed your comment! Thanks very much! This one was sort of painful to make but glad you think it turned out alright. :) This next project I'm doing some lighting but with a system that requires ZERO soldering and much better wire management. So very excited to no longer work with a rats nest of wires lol

[@DeadWayfes]

This is amazing!!! Amazing work as always!

[@English-Lass]

My goodness Neil, this is super love.. wow x

[@georgte6016]

Better and more beautiful then the whole Game!

Wow wow wow, Neil...I love this diorama, I love the theme, the collab and of course your content as always. Your down to earth straight forward and honest approach to your videos is great man. Keep on keeping on, can't wait to see your massive woodland scenics project come together as well.

[@stefanocanonica519]

It looks like a city with today standards, nothing like the sprawl from cyberpunk lore. I’ve been in Hong Kong and it’s way more cyberpunk than this at night. Nothing to say about the crafting itself. Good as always.

[@karengilchrist9774]

Incredible diorama Neil! I love all your stuff. This video is what introduced me to Table Top Time and I thank you for that. They are amazingly talented and absolutely hilarious!
