Lovely to see that this series is back again. I think you nailed the theme. Unfortunately, I don't have any tips on his head. I'd have cut it off to get an opened up face on it. Glad you didn't.

I Love your channel dude. Keep up the awesome content. You're like the Bob Ross of mini painting 😊

This quote needs to be on Goobertown's Banner on his page. It's 100% correct, and a perfect way for people to get a snap shot of what his channel is all about. Love it!

Agreed!!!!!

[@pacerleegaming9769]

You shouldn't apologize, what you do is art, art isn't always happy, but good art should be enjoyable. I enjoyed this video.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

I know I know! Most of the goobertown videos are pretty upbeat though, I felt like I should let people know they were still in the right place. I'm really glad you enjoyed the video! :-)

[@Retrofun69]

Also I am happy you dont spoil the name of the mini or the look on the title card!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Me too! The other episodes were all published when I had very few subscribers so I felt like I had to dump that stuff the thumbnail and title to increase search traffic and clicks... but now I don't have to use spoilers anymore :-)

[@johnkelley9877]

Yeah! A Goobertown Roulette tutorial! It looks great and given the limitations of the rules I think you pulled it off quite nicely. I can see the misery in the figure looking at and holding his dead pets. The snow makes it look even more depressing too. I am looking forward to your next challenge. Thanks for posting this outstanding tutorial Brent.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Glad you liked it! It turned out decent in the end, I'm glad I finally finished it up. Thanks for watching John! :-)

[@RyanEdwardsVA]

Your somewhat deadpan narration about Scratchers and Tickles absolutely killed me (but not as dead as them). Excellent work! Love seeing you push yourself and learn!

Hehehe, glad to hear that, that was a fun bit. Thanks for watching Ryan! :-)

[@chromedaccountant1]

Bob Ross of mini-painting, right here ladies and gentlemen. Goobertown Hobbies, you are awesome.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Ahhhh, my favorite compliment! Thanks so much for watching! :-)

I am so glad you picked this one back up. It tis very much in the spirit of Goobertown Roulette that you pushed yourself to finish the project.

[@erin.anderson]

It always amuses me when artists such as yourself say things like, "The paintjob on this mini is 'meh'," and I totally get it; we are always our own worst critics. As someone who is just starting to get back into minis after ... a long time... seeing your work is always very inspiring. They're all amazing to my eyes.

[@jonathonfreeman9233]

poor poor tickles and scratchers. XD I'm impressed you were able to get those colors to work together.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Poor little buggers :-) Yeah those colors aren't a great pair, but we jammed them in anyway!!

[@brooksf-l7619]

Your Goobertown Roulette videos are a joy to return to (or in this case a misery!) as I try and get back into the hobby groove. The random tables at the start of this one prompted my first ever speedpaint attempt, with which I'm surprisingly pleased!

[@ronaldinglehart2172]

Wonderful to see this series return! I really enjoyed the first four installments, and am glad to see this really clever, original, series is still going strong. Like a lot of people have said, your typical tone is very upbeat and seems to remind people of Bob Ross, so it’s a bit of a change seeing you tackle the subject of misery. Still, you did a great job handling that challenge, in spite of the fact that you had a model whose face was covered by a mask. Great work as always - already looking forward to part six!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Thanks Ronald! Yeah it's great to be working on this series again, it gets me to do these things that I don't naturally gravitate to. Hopefully the wait for episode 6 won't be anywhere near as long! :-)

[@greysonspencer]

Yay, I'm so glad Goobertown Roulette is back! Best painting challenge on the interwebs, keep it up!

Thanks Greyson! It's good to be back :-)

[@fredericjaquet3729]

You should have taken one more mini !... cos' misery loves company ! ;-) Great job as usual !! I discovered your channel a few days ago, and I love it !!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Whoa! Idea! That would be a fantastic rule modification. On a certain roll you pick two minis and the challenge is to make them somehow work together... Glad you found your way here- thanks for watching! :-)

[@TotemoGaijin]

1 skaven and 2 dead rats. 3's company, 4's a crowd. :p

[@sackofpeas2470]

The format of this has inspired me to do something similar for my drawer full of random miniatures from board games, GW, and all sorts of random manufacturers I've bought from over the years. Think it will be a cool way to keep myself painting whenever I get a little burned out on a bigger project or just get that urge to paint something new. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@rodento3220]

As a HUGE Skaven fan I am touched by the effort that went into the background story. What a rollercoaster, First I was psyched "Woot!! a Skaven!!", Then I was all like Uh.... little guys are dead?! And then the eulogy for them brought us back. Thanks man.

[@guillaumesakiche]

God, I was so happy to see Ikit ! It was the first model I've ever changed and even sculpt a bit ! I remember playing a two handed sword so I cutted the weapon above and underneath his paw and gave him a big sword planted in the ground, the pommel was a little warpstone ! Thanks for that content, I really like those videos !

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Nice to see an Ikit fan! It's a classic model, I'm glad you have some good memories with him :-) I'm hoping to get some time to play his campaign in warhammer total war soon. There are a lot of classic models left in that bin, I gotta keep doing this roulette thing!

[@larrymanns364]

I really like that you walked us through you thought processes here and talked about how hard it is to get back into a project after you've stepped away for a while. It's the biggest hurdle for me and leads to a lot of unfinished models and paintings. R.I.P. Scratchers and Tickles

[@GoobertownHobbies]

RIP little buddies. Glad you liked it Larry! Yeah sometimes you gotta get over that hurdle and remember why you started the project in the first place. This is a fun series and I'm glad I'm back onto it! I actually have another model from this series selected and sitting on my painting table... time to just dive in before it joins my pile of truly abandoned minis :-)

[@thundercricket4634]

I seriously envy your focus. I have to keep kicking myself to finish a project.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

[@CosmicDuskWolf]

I think it came out great. I think the story you came up with brought the theme 100% together.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Thanks! Yeah it came together pretty well huh?- surprise ending!!! :-)

[@williamwhite4546]

Usually your episodes bring me such joy and this made me very sad. You are not just a hobbyist, you are an artist. For the point of art is to make others feel something and oddly this made me feel something. Thank you!

[@alextruman8877]

Honestly love your videos. Your voice is the chillest thing to work to.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

That's great to hear! Happy painting :-)

[@mutehowl]

Someone called you the Bob Ross of mini painting.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

This is what happens whenever I try to spread the Joy of Painting... :-)

[@looselycollected7505]

Use something clear to paint tears coming from the eye holes in his mask. If there was a way to reposition the head, so that the head appears to drooped down in sadness. Like he's hanging his head. Those two things alone could project a lot of sadness and misery. Alternatively, you could have made a bigger base. Put a broken tree in front of him, and had both the rats and a lesser Skaven all nailed to the tree. Tilt his head up to look at them. Open his mouth to give the appearance of shock and add the tears again.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

That's a cool idea! I'm definitely interested in doing big elaborate bases and making the figure more like a diorama. I like that. As for positioning the head, it's a pewter model which makes that pretty tricky unfortunately... Good ideas though! :-)

[@looselycollected7505]

A jeweler's saw, some green stuff, and a bit of patience. It can be done. If I could send pics here I would show you a Dark Legion monster I painted long ago. I used a metal Capital soldier to make a dead trophy stabbed onto one of the monster's spikes. He went from an upright standing read to fight pose to a droopy raggedy doll hanging on a spike dead pose.

[@lucinxar2931]

I love how that turned out, the story truly works

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Hey thanks, I'm glad that it all came together in the end! :-)

[@WombatTheMad]

Excellent! Glad you finished it. Proud of you my dude!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Thanks! We did it! It's good to be back to Goobertown Roulette :-)

[@dj20benn]

Do more of these please. It was a delight and educational throughout

[@CulturedRuffian]

Yay! I must be one of the 50. :) As usual, the roulette is inspiring and still proves to be quite the challenge. The benefit of hindsight always provides an unfair advantage but I did get an idea to offset the colors and draw attention to his face. Instead of using the purples as a main color on the cloth, painting him in drab browns/oranges over muted metal (rust) and keeping his robe in muted tones as well, you could use an almost sickly pale skin tone with purple shading to invoke illness or fatigue. The red comes into play as a spot color for blood. He might even had to put the rats out of their misery himself because they were ill, caught in a trap or rabid. Ok. I must have an old Skaven in my boxes somewhere. :D

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Yeah I really like that idea! Like you said, hindsight is 20/20, I didn't notice how troublesome the helmet was until I had most of the base colors on- something to think about earlier next time. Thanks for being a longtime viewer Eddy! Go paint some skaven :-)

[@NakedBatBoy]

That ending story though... Haha! Great job picking back up an old project. I know that struggle too well...

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Hehehe yeah that story got dark there for a bit! Like most of us I abandon too many projects, but I'm really glad that we cranked through this one! :-)

[@Adamant_Consternation]

Great to see Goobertown Roulette return!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Yeah, I know the feeling! :-)

[@TheAcrnm]

Maybe add some snow to the figure if hes been stood awhile would love to see some snow drift build up!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

I was thinking about that for sure! The glue/ snow mixture that I mixed up wasn't looking great, so I decided to leave it off this time. I need to find a favorite recipe for snow! :-)

[@chaosincarna]

Don't be so down on yourself with the project. What probably got in your way was that you had a vision of how it would play out, and what ended up happening was that it wasn't looking how you saw it in your head. With the Mini painting challenge, the point you made for this was to push your boundaries. And if you go in to a project instantly thinking of how it might work out, try not doing that before you roll the dice, or even start painting, just paint what colors need to fit the challenge while keeping that theme in mind, you are very creative and the easiest way to constipate creativity is to over think a project, rather than expand on it. I personally would of green stuffed him a pouty lower lip, maybe some cartoony tears since he naturally looks less realistic being an older model. Also the arrow shafts would do well with some fletching, and the colors on the fletching could tell more of a story as to who shot the pet (what faction of the Empire, goblins,etc). The small rat could of also been made to be a baby rat, coming up to the dead momma rat, trying to wake it up by nuzzling, hows that for taking it to the misery place? I genuinely like that you have a code of standard with your channel. Love the vids, keep it up.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Whoa! Those are some truly excellent ideas! You're right, the arrow shafts could have told a whole new part of the story... and the rat bambi... oh wow, that's such a gut-punch. Thanks so much for the advice and the ideas, you're right, overthinking things can constipate creativity. On the next roulette challenge I'll make it a goal to keep pushing through to the end and see where that takes us! :-)

[@corgibuttz2550]

Dude I really like your videos. I made some "contrast paint" following your guide and it turned out AWESOME! My friend painted some Infinity models (super cool sci fi game) with his GW paints, and I painted those same models w/ my home made paint and they looked identical! I'm honestly not a huge fan of that paint style so I don't think I'll use it that often, but it's fun to know I can mix some up whenever I want. I hear you talking about putting inks through your airbrush. I would LOVE a video on how you do that. I'm an airbrush noob looking to improve my skills. (That's why contrast paints don't interest me a lot, I wanna become an airbrush baller hehe)

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you're getting some good info out of these videos! :-) I'm not done making videos on those inks, but these two might be of interest! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYPJnIBsh6x8qNU kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpavY4WMm6tshqs

With that helmet, would probably have made a heavy rust-trail from the eye-hole on side, dirty, grimy fur on the other from discoloration, like when pets stain their fur from eye-gunk or over-active tear-ducts for whatever reason. Also you deserve more subs. Vid quality is good and your voice is easy to listen to.

Love Goobertown Roulette! Excellent!

[@ExileDCC]

It always tough picking up a half finished project, let alone having it stare at you from a shelf or something. At the same time, sometimes you do need a break to examine your previous approach and learn how to refine that or even go in a different direction. Nothing wrong with that. I think everyone has their own hill to climb in that regard. I think Ikit turned out pretty well and the part replacement doesn’t look out of place for his model. I can see this being the impetus that turns him into the sort of mad scientist that he’s sometimes depicted as. “Tickles and Scratchers would want me to live my life to the fullest. Commence warpstone experiment number 83091!” As an edit, I’m not sure how I would’ve approached the helmeted face. It seemed like the only real exposed areas were around the mouth. He looks like he has a sneer or something, although in this case it’s more of a grimace. That’s a very small area of the face to work with. Everything else is pretty much covered so without going whole hog and sculpting/scratch building a new head, it would be rough trying to change that. I think you tried to convey the emotion the best you could given that we can’t really see Ikit’s face. I think the base, his posture and what he’s physically carrying inform the viewer what he’s emotionally carrying. A tough challenge for sure, but hey you saw it through.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Yeah, taking a break is definitely a doubled edged sword. If you can actually get yourself to return to the project you often have some fresh ideas for it. Hehehe, I like the idea that this is Ikit's origins story. He doesn't have the crazy backpack yet because he hasn't built it yet. This is the traumatic event that puts him over the edge into full-blown mad scientist!!! :-)

[@uhgtheuhg]

Have you thought about doing a community painting challenge? You pick random commenters/subscribers and you send them a mini (have them pay for shipping so there is no loss to you and it's fair), and you have us (or even you) roll for the same randomness. For people like me where I don't have enough disposable figures to play along, it would be fun and it you could vote on the best painted figure. Anyways keep up the good work! Been following you on YT and on Reddit for awhile, and I always look forward to your videos.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

This is a very interesting idea! It has crossed my mind a few times. The goal is for each person to end up with a surprise mini, and then paint according to rules that I post on the channel. As a general rule, I'm going to avoid any plans that involve me personally spending a lot of time packing boxes and printing shipping labels, but there are definitely ways to make this work. One thought is to work with a company like warp crate. Everybody either picks a random mini from their own collection if their collection is big enough, or buys a warp crate with random minis. Alternatively, it might be possible to try to run it as a secret santa type swap, but that also requires a lot of organization...

[@uhgtheuhg]

@@GoobertownHobbies Yeah I can see how this would blow up and get messy fast. I've never heard of Warp Crate so I'll look into it. Maybe we can organize something on the 40k or Miniatures Sub-Reddits. I know that Reddit has a great Secret Santa program through out the year. Anyways thanks for the reply!

[@Talking-Monkey]

The only "negatives" about this channel are that it isn't wayyyyyyyyy more popular, and that there aren't more videos to binge watch. But I am confident that with time, both will disappear. I am sure of it . I know it has been said before by other viewers, but let me say that your channel is fantastic, and never ever change how you do things because it is so different and amazing in it's own way .

Awesome, gratz on finishing it man! Tough to finish something that is miserable. Looking forward to some more of these, love this series glad it's back on! As for ideas how about a single tear dripping down his face?

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Thanks! That's a good idea. One eye is covered in a lens, and the other is recessed pretty far from the helmet, so it might be a bit tricky to find a good place to put that tear. The head on this model just isn't great for conveying emotions... Oh well, he's finished and we'll get a different model next time! :-)

Well done picking up the model again! It’s definitely rewarding and I think you nailed the theme even with some the handicap of the hood and the colour scheme. The face is definitely important when it comes to conveying emotion, that’s why Toby Maguire’s mask keeps ripping on Spider-Man lol.

HAha, I love these vids man! Such a Bob Ross feel to them! Great stuff mate and I would agree with you that it can be really hard to get back to a project once you put it down. Can be hard to get the motivation back, or as usual, there's always something new and shiny around the corner. :)

Whats up ya Git!? Thanks dude, I'm glad you like these! They're super fun, but I'm still glad to be done with this one :-)

Maybe some snow on Scratcher would sell the idea that he has been dead for a while, rather than seconds before the scene we see. The Roulette is a great idea, and the result is cool.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

That's a good idea! I thought about that, but I was messing up my snow mixtures that day, so I nixed the idea for this model. Glad you like the roulette, I like it too! :-)

Model came out great. I might have made the armor more metallic and added some rust perhaps that would have made the head pop a bit more. Also you need an official Goobertoown shirt that says "The dice made me do it!"

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Hahaha, that's a couple of very good ideas! Thanks Bob :-)

[@ronaldinglehart2172]

I’d buy that shirt, lol

[@Alittlefruitgoesalongway]

@@ronaldinglehart2172 Yeah, I'd totally buy that shirt too!

Really inspiring how you made an awkward project work through creativity with the pet rat story.

[@y-adouradou446]

This is awesome! Love the concept

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Thanks! Yeah this series is a lot of fun. Drawing a random mini is more fun than opening a pack of magic the gathering cards :-)

[@lanthorn0335]

A new goobertown video!! YES!!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Awwww yeahhh!!!! :-)

I probably would have gone with a darker purple for the robes, then used orange and red as spot colors on the model. The orange red would have really come in on the base. I would use cork or maybe an actual rock to stand the Skaven on, around it would be lava with a few pieces of armor still floating waiting to melt away like the rest of his unit. He knows it’s only a matter of time until the rock he is on erodes away with the lava, miserably he waits for his fiery end. Well that’s my take, but I really liked yours as snow is one of my favorite things, but I unfortunately live in Florida. lol

[@GoobertownHobbies]

That's an awesome idea Ryan! I'm gonna file that one away in my head for later :-)
