Thanks to Ghostfire Gaming: ghostfiregaming.com/MISC_FB01_2022_11_001 for sponsoring this video and getting me across the world to do cool things. They really make my fav D&D products so it'd mean a lot if you checked em out to.

The absolute confidence this man has to just roughly cut shit and blast models with a torch is downright aspiring.

[@matthewconstantine5015]

Man, this video is a journey. Glorious chaos. Good for you that you're out there making memories, making friends, and making art. Careful of nostalgia. The older you get, the more tempting a trap it becomes. Thanks for all the wonderful creativity.

[@Miscast]

Thank you so much

[@DragonBoi3789]

I think the one thing I appreciate the most about your content, your style and your process is that you're never afraid to get messy. Messy builds, messy paint jobs, messy molds and castings. And more recently, messy finishes. Life is messy, and this hobby is certainly messy in many different ways. But I want you to know that I see all this mess and it makes me feel better about my own messes. I know your friends dont hold the mess against you and are just happy to see you expressing yourself and enjoying your hobby and your life. Projects don't have to end neatly, or at all even. And whatever mess happens along the way, it doesnt matter all that much as long as you keep moving and keep caring.

[@kennethwithrow4823]

I started sculpting again.... after 30 years of not doing the one art that really makes me feel alive... that really helps me tell my stories in my head to the detail I need to convey. You're one of 3 artists that inspired me enough to catalyze removing my skull from my bunghole and be happy again. Thanks for that

[@Jack_Daniels27]

I’ll always be amazed by the projects that you create or subsequently become a part of. It’s like you have a million different ideas orbiting around you from yourself and others that just randomly select themselves to be worked on. Keep up the great stuff! It’s always inspiring

[@Miscast]

Thankyou, thats a lovely depiction and means a lot

[@Mrdude2KillJoy]

You might not have gotten a final shot of that table you liked but I felt like we got a satisfying ending to the story. Thanks for sharing your journey ☺

[@Miscast]

Thank you, that means a lot

You're such a good human. So glad I know you exist, and I get to see you making the world more interesting and cool. GREAT inspiration to watch and then replay while I'm making stuff, too. Thank you.

[@Miscast]

That really mean a lot. I watch adam savage mostly when I make stuff

[@hoelwiesner710]

You're an inspiration. Having touched the miniature modeling world since I was a kid, but you (chief amongst an incredible community of youtube creators) made me go out to buy some greenstuff, pick up random junk from around the house, and start trying to make my own little gang of miniature mutants. Thank you!

[@Miscast]

That really means a lot to hear, I'm stoked.

[@jakespruce1459]

As someone finally getting into crafts like this, I'm so glad to have such beautifully creative people like you to look at for inspiration. Thanks for everything ❤!

[@KLARADOX]

This video is brilliant. Simply fantastic. It is like the terrain you build, a mixture of random stuff glued together to form something truly beutiful. I love how you share your emotions and art and creativity at the same time. Keep it going.

[@scrathed]

I feel like there's this tendency of you basically growing more and more unhinged and MAD over the course of the last, I don't know, five to ten videos or so, and I love seeing that, especially with that moment where Rachel is clearly ALL IN on this dynamic and just tears apart the old terrain piece being like "I assume this is what you wanted?" I enjoy your stuff so much. Thanks for being the inspiring crafty maniac that you are.

[@turnipslop3822]

Absolutely love the story telling and this journey. The way you share your hobby with us is so unique, emotional and inspiring. Keep being you Trent. You're awesome.

[@tjeerdposthuma6992]

That sucker punch right in the feels there at the end had me choked up for a bit. Hang in there, you'll meet them again for sure! And keep up the amazing videos, Trent!

[@MidwestMountainMan]

I don't even know how to describe this channel, but it's always a joy to watch.

[@mothos]

Luke was a big part of the terrain making community. His videos and style of content will be missed.

[@gggfx4144]

I'm going back through your catalogue of videos just because I'm enjoying and needing that vibe; this video is such a wonderful example and celebration of community; I hope you get to make such hobby trips in future again, as much as anything to profile the amazing maker-spaces and communities you encounter along the way

[@LooseGroose]

This video was... Beautiful. And heart-breaking. So much going on for you, Trent. Thank you for clueing us into your world and ongoings. I look forward to your videos always, and every time you post have to watch right away :) I think you're inspiring a huge wave and generation of hobbyists. Thank you :)

[@Harlizarrd]

Hi Trent, had the pleasure of meeting you in a bar around PAX Melb, just wanted to say that the way you put your soul into your videos is beautiful and you inspire me every with every one. You were hilarious in Bill's video and I can't wait to see how this ship project is gonna turn out.

[@Miscast]

I remember! Thanks so much mate, hope to see ya at PAX this year!

[@banishedpest115]

Probably been said, but the way you know where every little bit you bash onto every project came from and the story of how you got it is incredible. This channel just oozes passion.

[@TJtheBee]

That table is awesome. I'm sorry you couldn't get the money shot of it. Regardless, you and Tine made a beautiful thing. Also that orc truck is awesome.

[@B1ackSwordVids]

G'day @Miscast. Thanks for this video. This just gave me the push to bloody get my custom Kill Team board Ive been working on and actually put down the sand layer on the terrain so I can finally paint it and finish it! Thanks mate! If you ever get to Melbourne, I owe you a beer or coffee! haha

[@Flying_Pigs]

I might still have some of your socks somewhere my friend. But having both worked and played a little on the table. It was well worth it :-) Oh and there’s still some flock glued to my worktable. Always brings a smile to my face 😉

[@619Slipk]

Your energy and outlook on art, the hobby, friendship... Life itself I guess. Never fails to inspire me

[@Miscast]

Thank you!!

[@Christopher-ct1dw]

I just started making stuff a few years ago during the pandemic and I feel like you are the reason i still do it. I love watching your studio room just get filled with more and more stuff, it makes me wish that one day i could have a big room full of cool stuff with cool stories attached to them as well.

[@T47Night]

Oh my gosh. You're an absolute legend. You're whole outlook with the hobby inspires me more than any other creator. Thank you so much for sharing your time with us 🙏.

[@Miscast]

Thank you!!

[@Kinggizzardthegreenstuffwizard]

Thanks for getting me out of a hell of an rut mentally with my minis. Your a big part of why I managed to keep painting and kitbashing. I even managed to get one of your Demon casts finally! Can't wait do some crazy shit with it and make yah proud.

[@aske202]

Trent, a bloody brilliant video. I had to pause it a couple of times to have a good cry. What you said about the hectic goblin moments being some of the best in a hobby struck all the cords. Some of my fondest hobby memories are hanging out with a mate, trying for hours to hack janky rpgs into something playable/a style of game that was never intended, all while drinking and smoking way too much. That table felt a lot like those game designs. Utter chaos, but in the best way possible

[@CampaignTerrain]

Trent, I really don't think you realize how much your insights, both into crafting itself, and into the artistic mindset, motivate and inspire people. I love what you do. I love how you do it. I love you. Thanks, man, seriously

[@rDunfee]

I love Luke. I've been a long time Patreon and I had the honor of being his last ad spot. I've done a bunch of barbed wire in the past and I couldn't imagine doing a 10 foot table worth! That's dedication!

[@echlinryan]

Take care of yourself and don’t beat yourself up. Your an inspiration in this hobby and have an incredible imagination.

[@Zambies]

[@Miscast]

Thank you Zambies! Also thanks for the vid!

[@Tectonicbg]

you sir, are the mad wizard of our hobby. The epitome of art and/or craft. I see you dump a bunch of junk into a blender just to try out some wild crazy idea, and you just go... Regardless of consequence, you create... You are an inspiration sir. Thank you.

Thank you very much

[@skoggstroll]

I don't know where you find the kind of crew you hang out with but I'm so envious of having community like that. Bris seems nothing like it. Sounds amazing 😍

[@UKSoundDesigner]

You remind me of an old friend i lost touch with. Same name too. He was art in human form, manifesting through his musical ability mainly. Both of us worked together on amazing things. We didn't even share them with the world. That wasn't the point. I switched that side of my life off, chasing silly careers and neglecting creativity because money bit at my ankles. You are one of the people who have renewed it. I paint often, I'm now sculpting and 3D printing and immersing myself in art as much as I possibly can because it's more important to enjoy and create. I don't know how to share my creations yet, but I hope one day I'll be as open as you. I'll stop rambling. Thank you for everything you do. It changed my life.

[@BlackLabMiniatures]

I’ve been rewatching these series of videos Trent. So inspiring. The end chokes me up a bit. That melancholy feeling of missed friends is painful, but I’d rather know that feeling than not. I dunno. Great vid tho cobber

[@capnskustomworks]

I just watched it last night, the table looks beautiful!!! And the fungus creatures that got built for the game went so well with it! They all seem to be a really cool group!

[@wittlegoblin]

I have to plan ahead and watch your videos when I have free time afterwards, because I know I'm going to start digging out bits and whatnot as soon as it's done!

[@hogs0war]

I was watching this and started thinking ' he's like a Hobbit that lives in a junkyard' but in the best possible way (think Junkyard Wars meets the Shire). Later on you likened yourself to a goblin and I thought I needed to re-evaluate my earlier idea: 'is a junkyard Hobbit a goblin actually?' and I have to say the idea of Junkyard Wars meets the Shire is what I'll be thinking of this channel as from now on (despite any goblin like tendencies).

[@CronosVids]

With each new video you keep amazing me. You’re such a genuine person, never stop being you.

[@raffehouston8940]

Dude i only dabble in the hobby but your videos bring me alot of joy & inspiration. I've been doing my podcast for a while now and like anything creative we have our valleys where it seems too hard or an inconvenience... or we doubt if what we are doing is worthwhile and think about just chucking it away. Your videos alway help me put that into perspective and just feel better about being creative in any way I can. Thanks bud.

Hey just wanted to say you're fast vecoming one of my favourite makers. Your positivity to work through problems is so inspiring.

More on the way soon I'm sure! Thank you

[@lonk2902]

Your way of making stuff (both table top stuff and videos) always reminds me of my mom, she used to make clothing for the local punk scene. I never manage to be this punk with my art, not really my strength. But it's crazy cool to just see how people like you and my mom work on this kinda stuff.

[@conker13245]

The idols of torment table had inspired me to use one of my old cat trees as a base for a giant terrain piece! I’ve always loved your approach to the hobby, when I first got into miniatures there seemed to be a lot of guidelines and specific approaches to making things but watching your videos always help re-remind me the only true limitations are my imagination! May all your future endeavors be fruitful and days filled with joy and wonder🙏

[@Miscast]

Thats a really great idea. Thank you!!

[@Wijkert]

What a rollercoaster of a video (and emotions)! In a very good way of course.

[@secretaltruism4174]

If any creator is wanting access to tools like 3D printers or laser cutters, libraries often have them. I know the State Library of QLD has them and offers free use, you just pay for materials you use. They even had beginner classes that'll show you how to do stuff.

[@GrimoireOfJank]

I think- more than the other bashers or painters- you do an amazing job of describing your thought processes, along with the little views into the personal. It makes me want to actually do things, most channels like yours- which I still love, Bill, Boylei, NOTB, studson, etc- are more entertainment than inspiration to me, if that makes any sense.

[@zerwikaptur9699]

"Your terrain is shit but your videos are awesome" is just a mean way of saying "It's not about the destination, it's about the journey". Anyway, another artistic masterpiece (I mean the video haha)

[@LaughingInTiny]

I really hope that you stay so authentic as your channel grows. You have a very "unKZbinr" vibe... in the best way. Makes me miss the old days when things weren't so shiny and scripted. I think (hope) you might usher in a new way of vlogging. Love it.

[@MisterTingles]

the initial stages reminded me of the Eismeer by Caspar David Friedrich. One of my favorite paintings, kinda echoes the nostalgia relayed in this video, I definitely relate with the "kinda jank but memorable" type of sentiment... I didn't even know Luke had called it quits, very wistful realization, hope he'll make some more off the record memories, away from the din of KZbin obligations. also, can't believe you almost forgot to add cork... oh, and also also, "I feel like some sort of Poltergeist" really cut me to my core, and I feel deeply attacked personally...

Love the creative process that you are going though. I did this back in 2008 trying to make it as a terrain maker. I did about a 1100 videos. Love the community here and the talent that has grown here over time. I have 2 suggestions I give everyone as dedicated to the hobby as you.

[@maninalift]

Melting foam reminds me of my teen warhammer years. Spray-painting polystyrene foam too close so that it would partially melt to produce terrain and melting polystyrene onto an armature with a soldering iron to make models. Perhaps I shouldn't have spent hours doing that inside without a mask or ventilation 😬

[@Miscast]

I love that effect!
