In this episode I make conversions for Warhammer models I can't actually see using old toys, nurgle diaries junk and weird stuff in my bits box.

My weird book Plants Nowhere to be Found is out now on Kickstarter - kck.st/3Fixoxt Thanks to everyone who has supported the project so far and is allowing us to do crazy things

[@DragonBoi3789]

I truly love how you seem to be the embodiment of grown-up Sid from the original Toy Story, but after he figured out how to love himself, got his life on track and ultimately conquered his childhood trauma of witnessing toys come to life and nearly dismantle him.

[@Junk-Troller]

That portal baby is such a cool design. And the "AT-ST" mech was hilarious.

[@Miscast]

AT-ST that's the one!!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

I want to put all my bits in a big treasure chest now.

[@danterose2934]

I just realized that we're all just really good at what Sid from toy story was trying to do. He was one of us and the toys scared him off!!!

[@benweinberg3819]

Matt is one of my favorite creators in the hobby, his work for me was like rediscovering Blanchitsu now as an adult with disposable enough funds to not care about crushing up and reconstructing models

[@boxnaught7428]

This channel is the reason why i keep working on this hobby! So freaking cool!

[@makeshiftminis9090]

The portal baby is bizarre and ridiculous and I love it.

[@bonuslifeart]

That is the BEST idea for a creative way to have a laugh and take the piss with your mates! I may have to, “borrow” it.

[@MrLlaine]

watching you kitbash or paint something is always an injection of unbridled fun. You make me want to drop whatever I am doing at the moment and go kitbash some weird monstrosity. I really love how you approach the hobby. Thank you for sharing your work with us!

[@Grytzen]

Amazing! But okay, so here is an idea for a table set piece or theme of some sorts: You could create the... factory/workshop/warehouse/laboratory (* whatever kind of place it could be considered as?) where these monsters or units are made or "born" by some kind of team of mad zealots and scientists. All kinds of weird equipment and half-finished poor souls, pools of liquids and parts and limbs... etc. Edit: Could have different departments or sections, hah! Cheers!

[@ClickerBait]

Keep it up. Love discovering your creations. Much more imaginative than most and inspire me to create myself. 👍🏻

[@ohmethiasknight5009]

Your approach to kitbashing makes the process actually seem like something I wanna try. Usually it seems like such a scary, alien territory, but from your videos I’ve learned that’s where the fun is

[@yo5tan]

while it's not one of my favourite pieces you've done, the process that went into making the portal baby was absolutely sick! and good on you for trying new techniques with painting, though I'm missing a little of the clarity of your usual work

[@heyfinger]

Painting with rattle cans seems so fun!! Have to try it

[@chester1882]

A friend of mine really likes your stuff - from my perspective both of you have a similar end result of surreal art. This video has inspired me to kitbash something to gift him for Christmas

[@Monty7hePython]

Absolutely loved this. Would love for this to be a series.

[@EmoKillsBest]

Would love a more in depth video on that monster paper kids game you were talking about, I've never heard of it.

[@Miscast]

Search "exquisite corpse" you'll find all sorts of interpretations

[@ChimeraWargaming]

I love kitbashing and I love your ideas. Thanks always for sharing!

[@craftingtroll]

Love your creative process man! Same way I tackle super glue+ bi-carb builds. Really love your channel, because your creations have been a great source of inspiration over the last few years. Always look forward to more of your vids! Thanks for sharing your creations! Cheers!

[@louislowery2877]

Love it! Over the top!

[@harazhangf5782]

I love your videos. They are always super interesting and unique.

[@zaharris]

I don’t even do any modelling myself, but I love your videos and find your creativity incredibly inspiring. Keep up the great work!

[@Figura3D]

Great stuff man! Really enjoying your channel

[@moissetdenis7127]

You re a great artist !

[@BPCustomCreations]

I love that crafting collab idea! Also, my favorite one was the claw guy with crustaceans on his back!

[@Eldritch-Lemon]

Perfectly in tune with Halloween the oddity of smashing a cabbage baby with a hammer is oddly horrifying.

[@legionnaireminis]

I love totally not panicking's work

[@DingoPaints]

So much talent 🤩

[@gregmccormack5709]

Those turned out amazing I can't wait to see what he will do with the peices your sending out.

[@jakestaples8498]

I’ve had similar issues spray painting rubbery plastic. It remained sticky for weeks

[@MeGaShaHeS]

This is an amazing idea.

[@stuff6218]

... You were definitely rooting for the bad kid in Toy Story, weren't you Trent.

[@graefx]

I love exquisite corpse game transfered into other mediums. And cabbage baby turned into some hieronymus bosch stuff.

[@graefx]

@TheMiscast. I'm good

[@Berserkerworks]

Matt is a beauty, and this challenge is a great idea!

[@Kamaru1991]

i hope we can see what the peoples are made out of your stuff

[@blaizerhodes]

You can fix that stickiness with talc, or by taking the paint off with meths. (I heard you can bake it .. on a car dashboard). Just had a similar problem with Bones miniatures.

[@kostarazman3444]

You are my favourite artist.

[@NuclearNomad]

Portal baby

[@moroncrow9820]

I like your channel for thoughts - "I could and would go to do it myself❤"

[@thomaskaracwilson]

Long live Portal Baby

[@elicollins3221]

Where does portal baby's head lead to??

[@Miscast]

This is the most important question

[@tedtradermin7017]

Amazing ❤

[@soljones9483]

awesome!

[@leopertamo6619]

Nice video bro

[@davidbrown4849]

Babba Yaga's death dunny

[@FlatMoki]

this gives me strongSidney "Sid" Phillips vibes 😅

[@timrickett9140]

With rubberY toys, you can heat treat them to remove that tackiness. I am sure other people beat me to it but take a small torch to it from a distance and get it hot, but not too hot that it melts and boom the paint isnt tacky on the rubber toy parts!

[@Miscast]

Alright, I trust you, I'll try it and get back to you!

[@timrickett9140]

@@Miscast Good luck! The craftsman steady crafting channel has a great video on it as well!

[@clarksalaraz3629]

Hi

[@Wijkert]

8:05 no need to varnish before what I assume are mineral spirits that you used to make the oil wash. Mineral spirits (white spirits) don't interact with acrylics. However, if the spray paints you used are not water based, then you might be right about sealing them first.

[@Miscast]

Every major acrylic brand I have access to contains some sort of solvent that if you're too aggressive painting will lift. Some less than others, some won't if you let them dry/de-gas for a few days/weeks. The mineral spirits are reacting with the spray paint solvent left on the model rather than the acrylic paint itself I'm assuming. Much safer and faster to seal with a light varnish coat. If I prime the models with a spray paint and handprint/airbrush the rest it's the same problem the solvent penetrates to the primer and lifts. That's GW brand, Rustoelum, White Knight, Dulux and some others I can't remember I use.

[@Wijkert]

@@Miscast fair enough. I usually use the airbrush instead of spray cans and don't seal acrylics before oil washes and have never had any problems. The rubbing itself can be an issue though, not the solvent that reactivates the paint.

[@Miscast]

Totally! Also I use Matte, Satin and Gloss varnish for different effects with the oil wash, it behaves differently on the different surface textures. Good to experiment with if you haven't already.

[@Bobas_Bookstore]

What do you use to sculpt these together? I heard greenstuff for at least one of them but it looks like some other stuff was used too!

[@Miscast]

Greenstuff or milliput or a combination of both!

[@Bobas_Bookstore]

@@Miscast Ill have to give milliput a try then! Ive just been using greenstuff or doll clay when I can heat gun it. Thanks!

[@timkuznecov5024]

Очень круто!!

[@EmoKillsBest]

First! Miscasters assemble!

[@arlybarly1702]

He's not allowed!

It is a at-st you Cretan

All jokes, but seriously it’s funny that you don’t know
