This is a literal piece of art. Playing with it would be just the most amazing experience ever

[@TheCraftingDen]

It's really immersive yes! Thank you

[@vladyslavtkach2209]

Agree, great job! Tiles look wonderful! I didn't get why the Mars board is not painted as mars instead of the base orange color, which I find dull. And how do you mark your forests? I can't see the places designated for placing player cubes :( Apart from these two, the result (and the process) looks great! I even learnt something new

[@gergopool]

I am a bit shocked this video was not yet honoured by the youtube algorithm. The content and the editing are great, absolutely quality footage. Keep it up, a few more videos like this and the channel's gonna grow big :)

[@TheCraftingDen]

Thanks! I'm taking muuuch longer than expected for the next video! But I'm working on it! :)

[@GermanArchitect]

I can only sign this comment. The effort you put in this video and the level of quality you reached is far beyond most million view channels. Awesome!

[@TheCraftingDen]

Maybe one day! I'm almost done with the next one, I'm pretty happy about how it's turning it and today I found a 15th century church where I am gonna try and get permission to film the reveal of the project on the altar! To give the "medieval" boardgame video I'm working on a fitting reveal!

[@Redskies453]

I think the algorithm disproves of the upload frequency. Quality here rather than quantity.

[@TheCraftingDen]

@@Redskies453 Yeah, I would've uploaded sooner, but then my gf was in an accident, and she helps a lot with filming as well, and then a lot of stuff at work got me really frustrated, so motivation was lacking and gf had to get better first!

[@citruesilver]

In one word: Amazing!

[@willemhm]

This made my day. More people need to see this!

[@TheCraftingDen]

I hope soon they will! I need to make more content though 😅

[@JacekStromeckiKietnaQuTak]

I'm not fan of plastik elements in board games (I prefer wooden elements) but the amount of details and work You have put in this project is just outstanding. Very impressive results. I envy You playing this version of TM, I really do. :-)

[@TheCraftingDen]

It's even more fun if you add some metal disks in the bottom to make them weighted, then they feel as heavy as wood! But I get ya. Wood is awesome. I hope to learn a bit of woodworking to add it in my projects one day!

[@ianscantland6282]

You sir, are a legend. Combining my love of Wargaming and Hobbying with another game I’m very fond of: Terraforming Mars.

[@TheCraftingDen]

Haha I hope you stick around cause i'm working on another really cool video!

[@cordialement4383]

Wonderful !

[@MrBendelaney]

Gosh, the amount of patience and skill O_O

[@TheCraftingDen]

Thank you!

[@MarcinEstkowski]

Just WOW!

[@TheAndylaja]

Very nice!!! I went and bought the game because of this video. Now I'm printing my own pieces.

[@TheCraftingDen]

That's awesome! Happy to hear it!

[@xironbeastx8677]

I think photosynthesis is one of the best looking board games I've ever seen, anyone else wanna see him take on that game in a similar way?

[@TheCraftingDen]

I'm currently working on a board, biggest project yet, But I've ruined it and now I need to find a way to fix my mistake ... OR upload a video, I made a 3D board for .... game and ruined it... But i'm not sure that's a good idea.

[@G_Signer]

looks kinda like civ 6 in real life, great job!

[@TheCraftingDen]

Thank you! And yeah, it kind of does!

[@danielzechim5552]

Great job... It was Killer

[@yusufkarabacakoglu9281]

Woah this looks amazing. The water details on greenary tiles, oceans with translucent resin and many more. More amazing than those is how you put so much effort to create them. Great job, great energy >

[@TheCraftingDen]

Thank you! Appreciate it!

Thank you!

Favorite boardgame! 👌🏻

[@TheCraftingDen]

Same! Alongside gloomhaven, sleeping gods and brass Birmingham!

[@grog3514]

Have you guys tried ark nova? Does it replace TM for you?

[@MihaiMihai-fw7do]

I did something similar with Mageknight without airbrush, about 200 tiles, multiple coats. I know how much work is there when I see it. Respect!

[@TheCraftingDen]

Yeah I love working on this, but sometimes I forget to film it because I just want to get started when I'm finally in the mood to work on it!

[@Nihilp]

nice job here! a dream come true !

[@TheCraftingDen]

Thank you so much!

[@nichegames9590]

Wow, big fan of this. Clearly no short cuts in a video like this.

Haha it's a lot of effort indeed!

[@lennartkock6136]

Wow what a masterpiece!

[@jillianbaer2667]

This is incredible! Thank you for walking us through such an huge project. This is one of my favorite games of all time, and as an artist it was such a pleasure to watch it come to life in your hands.

[@TheCraftingDen]

That's so nice to hear! I've been struggling getting the next project finished, a lot going on and I've been lacking the motivation to continue but comments like this really make my day and motivate me to continue!

[@jonbauml225]

Beautiful

[@historymythologyscience]

this game is a great twist to the Catan format of settling, GOOD JOB

[@TheCraftingDen]

I got a lot of Catan comments! I think I should maybe do something about that!

[@longle88]

Very underrated content. Blinging up my fav board games is such a good idea

[@TheCraftingDen]

I want to do this for every board game I buy, before I start playing it, but that's a bit too ambitious 😅 Stick around cause the next video will hopefully be ready in 1-2 weeks!

[@Stephou62110]

Found this video on thingiverse while I'm also printing TFM upgrades, This Is Amazing! 👏

[@AgostinoManea]

Awesome!

[@teriyakitaki]

Outstanding!!! I’ve had issues sanding PLA - but I never thought to wet sand it…. I’m going to try that next time. And I love your setup so much that it’s giving me all sorts of ideas for my own space. This is fab :)

[@TheCraftingDen]

Thanks! I Appreciate the kind words and I'm happy that I've inspired you! Wet sanding makes a huge difference, and use sanding sponges, it made a huge difference in speeding things up for me.

[@mbrochh82]

The video itself is perfect and I just loved the time speed 3D part with the camera motion: wow an added detail that make this video really more entertaining to watch!!

Once upon a time I secises to print and paint Catan. It took me almost 1,5 year to finish project. Mad respect for you, lad!

It's not a sprint, it's a marathon! That's what I keep telling myself, if you push yourself too hard, you won't enjoy your hobby anymore!

[@modelingsculpting2986]

Epically awesome! WOW, just WOW!

[@TheCraftingDen]

Thanks! 😁👌🏼

[@trafficjam415]

OMG - this is AMAZING what you've done. I love the end result SO much.. wonderful job! I wish board games were always made with such level of detail, and I'd be willing to pay that much more for them! Water tiles ARE amazing, but so is all the rest. I missed if you put in magnets in the "base" or "main" board?

[@TheCraftingDen]

In the 4 pieces of board, there are magnets to keep the 4 pieces together! The tiles themselves, fit snuggly into the hexagon openings of the board so no need for magnets! Thank you for the super kind words, it's really motivating to hear someone talk so nicely of my work! Thank you!

@@trygvij1604 I know right?! You never really know who's winning, and then when you THINK you know, the end score is very often super close! That's the fun thing about this game, so many things to do to get points, and somehow it always ends up really close!
