Meet the Engineer but it's a Claymation

A Stop-Motion recreation of the Team Fortress 2 Trailer "Meet the Engineer" Hope you guys like it!

[@TheChillBros2023]

A work of TF2 gold. SOMEONE GET THIS MAN A SAXXY!

[@aslegger]

You mean australium right?

[@AverageSoldierMain]

no, he means a saxxy@@aslegger

[@stovepipe]

Simply love the combination of two of my favourite things, TF2 and analogue 3D claymation. You absolutely killed it!

[@TheMiminTV]

Thanks a lot! im going to make more Meet the Team animations soon so stay tuned! :D

[@megandavis3372]

​@@TheMiminTVkeep up the good work! Would love to see how far this can go!

[@nonexistantt]

They even added the little detail of the kill counter ticking up a number. Suuuper underrated video.

[@vannyvan.]

And also the fact that the campfire the engineer was sitting next to was actually a burnt BLU sniper, I didn't even notice that in the original meet the engi

[@nonexistantt]

@@vannyvan. wait really?

[@vannyvan.]

Yup! You can check it out yourself, it can be seen in the end of meet the engineer when the camera zooms out, you can see the fireplace is a dead (and burnt, at that) sniper Edit: the timestamp where you can see it is 1:13

[@nonexistantt]

@@vannyvan. oh my god you're right

[@15braincellsremaining]

Criminally underrated

[@Kermit_TF2]

these are my two most favorite genres put together

[@miguelpp8342]

_I know art when I see it, and this, my friend, is _*_ART_*

[@sharkembark4784]

Dang!!! This is phenomenal!

[@barryb.benson7572]

I love claymations and I love TF2. I can't imagine how long this took to set up and make. Great work!

[@usbinterface]

I enjoy seeing anything animated relating to TF2 or something physical by that, but this? This is what KZbin was made for. Keep creating, this was phenomenal.

[@TheMiminTV]

You're gonna make me cry dude, thank you :,D

[@evanpuente727]

With this we could revive the saxxy awards

[@TreeInfestor]

I don’t need to question what beauty is, it’s right in front of me

[@El.fish.the.chocolate]

Genuinely... A piece of fine animation here mate, good job and luck for the future.

[@jellys0ne460]

this is so charming and well done, whatever you do next just please keep creating

[@Kingbenfaet]

This is fantastic. Perfect.

[@corpsedevil]

YOOO THIS IS SO COOL???

[@MrSlonkVR]

Holy flip this is beautiful keep up the good work

[@zer0ishere]

[@ethanjohnson5983]

Incredible.

[@enthusiasticcannibal2465]

fantastic work mate

[@no1legobatmanfan]

Oh this is DELIGHTFUL!!! AMAZING WORK!!!!

[@TheMiminTV]

Thank you very much! :D

[@Mitioritos]

Amazing work

[@galaxythefox7432]

Bro this is awesome, deserves way more views

[@randomtexanguy9563]

my biggest nitpick is the briefcases in the truck are missing, but it would have been tedious to make that many so you could have alternatively just made one of them overall this is great though

[@Uber_Rush]

This needs more views, your sculping skills are amazing

[@TheMiminTV]

Hey thank you so much! :D

[@eastsiderunn]

THATS NICE

[@deinfinnischfreund1929]

Magnificent

[@Mr.neptune23]

This is so underrated

[@TheMiminTV]

thanks! :)

[@okamithewanderingwolf172]

Incredible work!

[@madmax9664]

love how you got the kill tracker working too, great job

[@TheMiminTV]

Thank you! I didn't realize the kill tracker changed more times than once in the original, and when i realized it was already too late lol

[@alphabulblax1649]

It's rare for KZbin to recommend a gem like this with so few views.

[@TheMiminTV]

Nice! good to know that the youtube algorithm didn't bury me

[@johnnycruelty5195]

amaizng job bro!

[@beaznuts2532]

this is awesome lmao

[@TheMiminTV]

Hey guys! if you liked this claymation, make sure you vote on my community post so you can choose which meet the team video im making next!

[@tobyfogg5861]

dam that must of taken all clay to make this this is a pun you are free to laugh so hard you explode...

[@garikm24]

Good Work!

[@TeamOfTheFortressFan]

Fucking amazing

[@pizzalover346]

Excellent work!!

[@TheMiminTV]

Thank you!

[@TwinMulligan]

oh sweet

[@timmy6890]

Very good!

[@MaevynBelle]

Awesome!

[@SweeTeasGarbageDump]

Needs way more views

[@Halberds8122]

This is good! Maybe after you have done making all the mercs, you could make the end screen ( 1:23 )out of clay!

[@TheMiminTV]

Of course! that's part of my main idea

[@lemonquxrtz]

This is so good, keep it up!!

[@TheMiminTV]

Thank you! :D

[@thehunt3rs_]

I may not work with any stop motion (or animation in general) but i do have some recommendations. 1. Try to keep lighting consistant, close all blinds and turn on a light some where close to your set. 2. Have a higher FPS, more frames means smoother animations, but it also requires more pictures

[@TheMiminTV]

The lighting changing between frames is a problem with my phone but yeah, im 100% going to try to do a better job for the next one so stay tuned!

[@matteorusso4001]

Excellent work for this animation.

[@TheMiminTV]

Thank you very much Matteo!

[@catenforcer4676]

Honestly amazing, I have been making some clay creation and planning to make some animations. Great work.

[@TheMiminTV]

Hey! thank you so much, im looking forward to seeing your animations!

[@catenforcer4676]

I just have to get around to making some animation

[@ArtemiyS_]

Very nice

[@MrCatTheII]

Pyro vision if it was cool.

[@Blockxolotl]

You deserve WAY more views

[@TheMiminTV]

I hope i get more lol, it's been 15 hours and it's already the second most watched video so im sure it will get more views

[@ranting2daMAX]

Is the clay used basic modeling clay that you can change the features of quickly or did you bake/dry it and separate it into different pieces? With how Clengie (clay engie)’s mouth moves I think it’s the first one but idk. Good work!

[@TheMiminTV]

It's basic modeling clay! Used it my whole life

[@SirBagelshire]

Solid

[@user-be8ly2lp4k]

Why does that have just 4k viewes

[@-JohnDoe-]

Heh, funny.

[@TheMiminTV]

Glad you liked it :D

[@Drunken_MadMan]

based??

[@cartoonistanonymous]

Based on what?!

[@geraldysjunk]

Its really not hard to animate at a frame rate above 5

[@TheMiminTV]

I'll try to make it more smooth in the next one!

[@geraldysjunk]

@@TheMiminTV Which fps did you use? The standard is 24

[@cartoonistanonymous]

​@@geraldysjunkthat would be an "industry standard" framerate, for yt animations 15 is usually sufficiently smooth. I love your claymation vids btw!

[@TheMiminTV]

@@cartoonistanonymous Thank you!

[@TheMiminTV]

@@geraldysjunk Im not sure tbh, because some scenes have more fps than others (example: the level 2 sentry scene)
