[@TeranzEstrate]

The red eggs are for silly putty, which some channels have recommended to mask with.

[@MrSweetiebear95]

I could tell they were silly putty, but I didn't know why they were there. Thanks!

[@Miniac]

Damn, was hoping they were stashed easter candy.

[@TeranzEstrate]

@Miniac I mean, maybe they decided to ditch the putty and store candy in the shells. 😆

[@RoofusKit]

Yup, there's also one hiding in the photo I sent in, last year it was even featured and he missed it.

[@lostnfound1086]

It hurts my soul that you dint recognize silly putty. It's great for airbrush masking.

[@generalflix]

As a European, I know several people who sustain themselves exclusively on Coca Cola Zero

[@Yoe-Mama]

Its sad because its true 😂😢

[@Arakash]

But not the 5l Bottles. Thats purely american

[@KPDigitalTravel]

@@Arakash sad but true

[@KPDigitalTravel]

please...don't drink that poison. ☠

[@Scherdnr]

Those giant paint shakers are from a guy who buys old lab grade mixers and refurbishes them for the hobby. They’ll probably outlast their owners and have to be written into their will.

[@twopotsonebrush661]

Mine has rubber feet on the bottom with springs to absorb the vibrations. I don't think it ever moves

[@johnwalker6557]

Your wife's attitude towards the hobby is the exact same vibe as my wife. The dynamic between you two was cracking me up the whole time.

[@CasualHistorian]

You can make fun of my Space Marines and my Cold Stone cup, but drying off my brushes with old socks is the HILL I DIE ON! (Just ignore the rolls of paper towels on the top shelf)

[@redrooster7371]

I use an old t-shirt for the same.

[@grombatmole]

How do you stop your socks shedding little hairs into your brushes and paint?

[@MiniNewb]

This is the best way to recycle socks, saving the planet 1 step at a time

[@adamtomlinson918]

OG miniac editing back in full swing on this video and i laughed so much watching.

[@joermungandr1209]

Thanks for showing my desk at 10:41 my paintmixer of doom is from an chemical lab where i used to work. And the Bust is King Ludwig I. of Bavaria. Love your videos

[@CoconutCheez]

I recognized one of the bomb defusal kits as something I used in a medical lab. It was so strong my hands were numb after 10 seconds.

[@echtervogel]

I have one of those. So fast.

[@goodnufpainting]

Honestly.... Fair In all seriousness you are amazing!! And so is Sam for putting up my card in his new space ❤❤

[@ViolentFraggle]

It's a sauce container, yeah. Satay sauce to be exact. Handy for keeping dirt and basing grit in, or in this case tiny air dry clay bricks for 15mm urban rubble. Also, the vitamin bottles work well for me, what can I say. The color scheme...well, it's kind of a "make do with what you have" thing. The seventies'll come around in interior decorating style at some point. 🤷

[@thehat4244]

You got the Shaq hands.

[@AlwaysStayGeeky]

Peanut butter sauce to be even more exact lol.

[@CFTim]

Satésaus en jodekoeken... Guess what country this person's from? (I use old appelstroop cans as painting holders for my magnetised minis 😅)

[@theanimaster]

This video just got me to clean up my hobby space. Holy heck.

[@tinaprice4948]

Me too :) lol

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Same lol

[@KPDigitalTravel]

That Paint Roller of Death?! I don't think it is just a fancy out of the way storage. IS THAT RED PART ON THE SIDE A MOTOR?! I think that roller is keeping those paint in constant movement with a mixer ball in each bottle. The question is ...at what speed? Are those paints rotating in a slow 'wienie roller' speed or is the Paint Roller of Death spinning at the speed that its name implies?

[@ThinAirGraFx]

its a nice rolling speed. enough to keep the paint mixed. its been big in the tattoo industry for s while. that’s were I got mine made from.

[@ravenovatechnologies6554]

Hell yeah I caught that too! It totally is a motor. That's badass!

[@jacenchrisbaker]

I was today years old when I realized that Halo is just Space Marine fanfiction. THANKS SCOOT WATERS.

[@chrisc.2591]

I hope that amp behind the painter chair has a dial that goes to 11!

[@RaptorGoesRAWR]

1:26 I get strong Aussie vibes from Alex's setup! We love our sheds. Heck I bet that plastic container under the PC desk is from Bunnings Warehouse, lmao Put my money on this being an Aussieland hobby den! (In which case, holy cheese Alex, DO you have aircon? Because longitude-dependant that den would get sticky-as in summer, surely?)

[@ThinAirGraFx]

Great Video thanks for the inclusion. Yes I also Stream and the paint roller of death is the coolest mixer I ever bought :).

[@coding8911]

I'm googling it, but I can't find it, do you have any more info, I'm so curious lol

[@ThinAirGraFx]

@@coding8911 I’m don’t want to look like trying to promote someone else’s goods on Miniacs channel. I’m not affiliated with the guy that makes but they are searchable.

[@SPACENOMADMALEV]

lmao. What a fun video. "Why would you ask me that, knowing that I can't have it?"

[@SPACENOMADMALEV]

Also love how Mona Lisa is just Art Jesus

[@iTxip]

"The usual sir?" With bolt thrower. Perfection

[@cameronframent8976]

The eggs might be silly putty for masking?

[@DanielAKA]

They definitely are

[@DingoPaints]

I love Amber, Scott asks can we have that? 'No' lols You guys are so much fun!

[@Chickenplague1]

Hey man, most of us in europe, at least in the uk only have a week of summer, we ain't paying £400 for an aircon at home for that!

[@madMARTYNmarsh1981]

That rolling paint storage is actually genius. My Pro-Acryl sits on its side (using Monument Hobbies paint racks) and I always find that the paint separates, so I end up having to shake the be-jebus out of it before I use it. That paint roller would save so much arm strength for more grown-up activities 😂

[@ThinAirGraFx]

its very useful

[@milenafighter8120]

Did u find what the check that PAINT TOLLER OF DEATH is? I need it in my life! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

[@tommyakesson8858]

13:30 I am glad to see your innocence. "Is that a sex toy?!" "Its probably a bridle." "Oh. Okay." As a jaded internet veteran I aint seeing those as separate things.

[@SpeedwagonZaidan]

16:05 I made it through the entire video without being called out for bad habits, but you got me with this one.

[@user-yy8nw8yw2c]

Looked like the paint roller of doom may be motorized? Left side, red boxy thing looks like a motor.

[@ThinAirGraFx]

yup it is.

[@gotsane]

its not just motorized but motorized with a stepper motor. I would be surprised if it wasn't programmed to spin to certain points to reveal the color you are looking for. Kind of a neat idea regardless

[@ThinAirGraFx]

@@gotsane it doesn’t have a program but you could put it on a timer. i just turn it on about ten minutes before I work. It’s actually a pretty trippy noise if you have ball bearings in your paint because you get a really cool rhythmic, clicking. Or I can drive you mad.

[@PartNinja]

red eggs are silly putty I think? can be used for masking or like blue tac to hold minis to handles.

[@colinh8983]

Awesome video guys. Some good giggles. Cheers! Look forward to '24!

[@Stanzig666]

Nah dude, that "Pedro" bust was definitely "Uncle Rico" 11:01

[@jimihaze7085]

Whoa oh black Betty! Grammalamps

[@Rudder001]

Always a blast. Awesome video. Thank you!

[@hansstokstad7026]

The eggs are silly putty🤣

[@AshleyBlackwater]

These videos are honestly useful, seeing how people set their spaces up gives ideas, especially the ones with limited space man that guy sitting on the floor needs a small table atleast tho thats rougth

[@cybermbebe]

Bolt Thrower reference! I'm already in love with this video!

[@jeffgallo7226]

OH HELL YES. I CAN NOT wait to sit down and watch this tonite. Thanks Scott and Amber for a new Setup Roast!

[@samifuleihan4585]

This is legitimately the funniest video I’ve ever seen! I love everything about it lol

[@johnlanger7852]

Duke had silly putty eggs on his desk next to the Styrofoam brush thing

[@jaromhyde8449]

I love the prop engine sound for the airliner.

[@OrakelofDeath]

ca. 1:28 : Sorastros Painting used in one of his videos an old Sock to Whipe Wash from a Miniature. Don't remember which one was. (Or wait: It might have been the At-At from Star Wars: Empirical Assault.)

[@robertmathews7587]

13:35 this is mine lol and I like how in the video he gave me a southern accent then when I mailed in sprues him and Jon then also gave me a southern accent lmao

[@themoody1337]

Be nice to my rectangle 😂 Thanks for including my set-up guys! That was really fun. Edit: the editing was fucking brilliant guys

[@thehat4244]

I like your rectangle.

[@themoody1337]

@@thehat4244 thank you

[@davidrickey8841]

Love these videos. Once a year isn't enough

[@jesseward3909]

Silly putty can be used to make a killer camo pattern also. Love that stuff!

[@ironknight132]

Love the Them! Poster, great movie!

[@Narcian150]

Oof, with these kind of videos, you don't expect the Doll faced serial killer near the end leaving breadcrumbs for the detective they are challenging.

[@AlwaysStayGeeky]

Kruidvat! Nederland! Haha 😂 (the vitamin bottles are from a Dutch company. Also the sauce, yes and no, it's IndonesianDutch Peanut butter sauce)

[@arodreth]

damn, if i had known i woulda sent a pic, as i have recently upgraded my paintstation!

[@tomaveryta]

Love it as always 😂

[@dustinasche]

"What's going on with the eggs?!" Tell us you've never used Silly Putty as a masking material without telling us you've never used Silly Putty as a masking material.

[@moody628]

The "spiky ball of death" looks like a Moravian Christmas Star, but you don't usually see those in black. (I've known a few stained-glass artists to make them as early projects.)

[@metajock]

This really makes me feel a lot better about myself...for not sending in my current desk pic. You would have **way** too much fun with it.

[@magnusmillerwilson]

Exactly. Makes my hobby space look spectacular even when it isn’t cleaned up all the way. 🤣

[@Justlegos]

I can’t wait for 2024’s video! And now we need to do stealth car camping and stealth minipainting by setups - so that’s how I get all my paint through the TSA

[@aroncheek5092]

😂 watching this has made me clean my bench twice now

[@harald2101]

i would have loved to take part but I couldn't get myself to clean my painting room :D love your content! keep it up!

[@fraser7211]

Obviously didn't stop some of those entries lol

[@Garrth415]

I don't even have space to set up one up so you're ahead of me

[@markgnepper5636]

Great stuff friend 👏 👍

[@TGPROject101]

The red egg is silly putty for airbrushing

[@FictionDiction]

I'm glad I got the toilet paper butt talk for my entry! Wtf Scott? There is no toilet paper in that pic! Just a roll of paper towels hahaa

[@sergelevesque1575]

I love using old sock to wipe down extra CA glue …. Somehow it just absorb it and doesn’t stick everywhere!! Work like magic and it’s free!!

[@G3arsguy529]

THIS IS ALL IVE WANTED FOR SO LONG

[@feral7094]

3:01 YO Bolt thrower!!!

[@aberodriguez4149]

This was a fun relaxing vidio !

[@KevinMossman]

This was a lot of fun, really had a good few laughs!

[@AcrylicJumbo]

Super fun video, the commentary is hilarious as always Miniac and Amber ! I felt like the sound effects were a bit too loud for each joke and edits tho and took away attention from the main A-roll, but thanks for uploading :)

[@grim1192]

Okay, the guy with the Good Nuf Painting card is a fellow legend!

[@J4ck.27]

Need more hobby setup videos

[@adammcclendon431]

Is the red egg silly putty? for like a quick mold maybe?

[@kristoff7049]

The paint wheel of fortune 🥰

[@brianpigford7923]

Just curious got the models from the kickstarter when will the classes be available?

[@grimmriffer]

14:20 this person has like 15 painting handles, which must mean they have 30 arms! I'd be worried about mocking that one, it's literally where C'Thulu sits and paints using his tentacles....

[@hellcat64]

14:13. I think thats a large paint shaker. Mabye, it spins like a rotisserie machine

[@radc201]

“Old school water heater” commonly called a radiator and used all over the world …

[@HuntersOA]

I just love to see the permanent temporary solutions that I do as well :'D Lovely stuff :D

[@billdefranza4927]

9:42 LMAO

[@napalmsanctuaryx4129]

He used the og bolt thrower realm of chaos cover. Listening to 4th crusade now. You really know how to set off a bolt thrower binge. That was an hour ago. Video still paused

[@brammo1991]

Ooh those Europeans and their lack of air condition. Yeah its because we dont build houses from plywood and sadness. PS: the Satesaus is indeed a sauce made from peanuts and a spiced up with sambal, its a Dutch / Indonesian thing. You should try it with skewered chicken sometimes.

[@Valtier_]

Ferry with the kruidvat vitamin bottles must be Dutch 😁

[@SeppukoGaming]

S:"I forgot we are supposed to be roasting people" A:"Your dog looks sad!" Wooow she is savage! Roasting people's puppers 😱

[@kaishobbies9825]

Loved the goofiness in this video

Whoever has that Vortex Genie what is the adapter you attached to it?? I need it.

[@LIQQWIDRIP]

Shout out to the Bolt Thrower reference. Blessed be the riff.

[@chadkittleson5447]

These are a fun annual video. I hope to see a 2024 collection next year.

[@Wijkert]

3:35 The eggs have to be silly putty for masking

[@1mDozer]

Look at the outlets or wall switches that will tell you where they are - North America, Japan, UK, or Europe

[@brandondollar]

Where do I submit my hobby setup (for next year, I guess)?

[@gamelover260]

You should do a review of people's displays of minis, like shelves

[@Wijkert]

4:00 definitely a Dutch person's room. "Satésaus" is indeed peanut sauce; it's great. Not that instant stuff though.

[@Gruumsch]

Ik denk dat de jodenkoekbussen en Kruidvatpotjes een goede hint zijn. :P

[@Wijkert]

[@8bitbonsai]

I dont even have a setup, i am painting on a coffe table while sitting on the floor 😂

[@_walruseater]

This was great

[@TylerProvick]

Yay, I made the video. Texas chainsaw guy. The mixer is a refurbished lab mixer from before the cheap small ones got popular.

[@thenoize8658]

the eggs are silly putty! perfect for masking for paint!!!!

[@Asphyxate]

What's odd to me is that noone seems to store away their paints in boxes or drawers of any kind. Having to eventually dust wipe 100s of paints standing in the open is a nightmare to me.

[@terrydactyl2077]

What’s the outro song? Anybody know if it’s a band or something Scott riffed out?

[@nuhrenholt]

Old school water heater?! Wtf 90% of homes have them in my country 😂

[@ThinAirGraFx]

yup. not do much in the US. i did have one in my yard as a decorative when i bought the house. that went to trash pretty quick

[@surtrpicks]

Did enjoy!

[@Sudo_Nimh]

@3:41 Silly putty, for quick masking

[@justindonie]

For me, the big down side of TP is the often-dusty nature of the paper ... introduces too many tiny paper particles into the painting process. Paper towel for me. ;)

Only the real ones know about the importance of socks in the hobby. My first 4 years painting minis I used the same sock to wipe paint… after that I guess I was initiated because for no apparent reason I decided to grab myself a nice roll of paper Ts, never to look back 🧦
