Your channel keeps on being a prime example of how you don't need fancy tools or expensive materials to make something nice. Those can certainly help, just like you said about the new camera, but the cheapest paints and literal trash (as in random packaging materials) can go a long way in the hands of a skilled maker.
@MechanicalFiend
@MechanicalFiend Жыл бұрын
This makes me so happy to hear- if there is one thing I would like get across in the videos, it is this! Totally, having the right tools can help a lot, but in a lot of cases- it really isn't necessary to be able to make something cool. If you collect even just a little packaging from things you buy, you already have fantastic materials to be able to make a project. Thank you so much for saying that~

​@MechanicalFiend Thank you for all you do and how detailed you are, I really appreciate your narration. I like how you make a lot of the details, parts, and decorations yourself out of easy to find items. Do you ever think about doing a full on miniature house/castle/idk with multiple rooms? I'm currently making my first 1:12 scale dollhouse, and it has been so fun, but so hard! mainly because I can't decide on the details yet😂 I'd love to see how you imagine the different rooms and furniture.

@@MechanicalFiend 🥰 Yes, it definitely does feel right. I think it's because Sophie loves her shop and it's where she can be herself. And for Howl, his room must be a safe place for him. I've always wondered if he decorated his room with the things he found or received from all the traveling he does and he kept those things.

If someone gave you an empty box of cereal, some Elmer's glue, a ball of yarn, a half-used tube of Puffy Paint, and a twist tie, you'd make it into something magical. No doubt in my mind. It's wonderful to watch you paint and your color studies always end up looking so cool. I bet that it really does help you wrap your mind around the subject that you're building. The weathering that you did to the paper board and the foam looks so authentic! That Assembly Montage is so very, very good, to be honest, it's beautiful and relaxing. I love how you added the background elements (Clouds and stars) to your final shots! I'm also glad that Black Magic gave you a camera (I had a feeling that a camera would find its way to you), and I know that YOU of all people will take full advantage of all that camera has to offer. Being able to punch in on 4k is a game changer... I punch in on shots like 50 times per video! : ) This project came out so lovely. Excellent work, D!

So many cool opportunities to try and improve the videos with it! Yes! Punching in is so helpful, I was doing it before, but it's amazing to not have to lose any quality.

Excellent! You do fantastic work. I was surprised with the editing. I am totally unfamiliar with the entire process. I just press the button on the camera and how it comes out is it. I didn't know so much can be done with editing. I'm impressed with your skills behind the camera also.
@MechanicalFiend
@MechanicalFiend Жыл бұрын
Oh there is a whole world of possibilities with editing! It can definitely be overwhelming when you're starting out, but a lot of stuff you can do is relatively easy to learn. That being said, many projects I actually don't do any of this! I just set up a scene and that's what you get in the final sequence besides a little color correction. There's so many ways to make your projects look cool! Thank you for all the super kind words~

hey! I just wanted to say how much you inspired me in my miniature creations, when I saw your cookie tin video 2 years ago, it really stuck with me!! the idea of incorporating miniatures into a tin is just wow!! Then comes my senior year of high school, our art show came along and that's when I wanted to create miniature in a tin! (first time building minis) I created a kitchen in a paw patrol tin lunchbox!! It was not easy (those corners in tins are so wack) and yeah I had Pinterest guides out and about, but your videos truly made me understand the process! Without your genius thinking resourcing scraps and trinkets, I would've made a lot more expensive purchases lol Thank you :) You are amazing 👍 P.S Sorry for the confusing writing/mistakes, still can't english even though i just graduated 😭

Hey! Apologies for taking forever to respond, but oh my goodness this makes me so so happy to hear! Totally, working in the tins can be a challenge depending on the shape- getting everything to fit snugly is not always the easiest. That's so awesome that you built one though and I'm so glad the videos could be at least a little helpful along the way. Hope you continue making pieces if it's something you are enjoying doing and thank you so much for sharing with me~
