Scratch-Building a Hyperspace Oubliette for Necron Deathmarks - Warhammer 40k

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

This is super cool. The base really makes it come together, and the painful decision to redo the outside was well worth the effort.

[@WylochsArmory]

Thx much J

[@josray2557]

mad respect for redoing the entire casing and graphics...Almost every art project I've tackled lately I keep scraping and starting over so I know how hard that is.

[@WylochsArmory]

Dude I almost rebuilt the whole damn thing. Walked away for ten minutes to back off the ledge.

[@josray2557]

@@WylochsArmory haha oh man....well it all came out good in the end.

[@AzraelThanatos]

Around Halloween there are a lot of places selling chipboard "coffins" (Some places even have plastic ones) that would also make a great starting point to build one of these, a few friends more into the World of Darkness games have been using them as dice boxes for Vampire and similar games.

[@Khether0001]

I've learned about Oubliettes from Labyrinth (1986), it is a dungeon you throw people there to forget about them, there is usually no chance to redeem that person and (if I'm not mistaken) they usually soon die from starvation from not being attended, i.e. Forgotten. ln this case you might be brought to fight and die. I love how WH is so apocalyptical.

[@Brickerbrack]

They were usually vertical pits, with a special crooked shape that meant you couldn't sit or lie down, or even stand up straight! Not only would you starve to death from neglect, but you'd also be in agony the whole time...

[@yugtac]

Bill - it should be gratifying that 2 years after posting this video - it is still inspiring crafters like myself - once I finish the space station storage shelves - I am going to add a Oubliette for my Necrons! - Awesome Awesome. Mike

[@Hobbyrepubliken]

Do a Genestealer Cult "underground" next!

[@doomkingraye7692]

I play both necrons and tyranids soooo...

[@genericname42]

Yes

[@deafnoisemarine6294]

Absolutely phenomenal, you're knocking it out of the park once again Wyloch!

[@alphonsecoco3]

Something that might be helpful in the future, I've seen some people use Vallejo metallic medium for the stars. It gave the stars the shine without the white being dulled by the black undercoat

[@vurrunna]

Nice! The lighting effects are especially well done; the green paint really does help sell the glowing effect. As a bit of constructive criticism, it would be nice to have a more open design, maybe with half implied walls (in typical 2.5D fashion), or more windows like on the ceiling; the flat walls can make it seem kinda cramped compared to the Space Marine pad, though in a way that's also kinda fitting for an oubliette.

[@johncware66]

That effect with the stencil was very cool, and perfectly necronian. Nice! And yes, enjoyed this as much as the other reserve unit storage.

[@WylochsArmory]

Thank you very much

[@johnkelley9877]

Excellent work Wyloch! It has a eerie look to it and the whole model is very impressive. Thanks for sharing this.

[@larrymanns364]

I know this and the teleporter stand aren't needed for gameplay but they add a lot of FUN to the game. And if we aren't playing to have fun then we're doing it wrong.

[@zarlus8]

You know what a oubliette is for? It's a place you put people to forget about 'em!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Cool stuff Wyloch ! Projects like these really add to the army. Love it 👍

[@demolinertom2981]

Nice work! BTW, oubliettes comes from French verb oublier which means forget. It was more like a creepy prison cell. Keep on the nice work, really inspiring for me!

[@Self-replicating_whatnot]

Gives a new meaning to the phrase "skeletons in the closet" :)

[@schaaf9637]

Let's see how many will build this with the new Indomitus Box. Awesome work! Respect and much love from Prague (Czechia)

[@DaneSaysStuff]

Me: Gotta go to bed, have work in the morning *Wyloch uploads new vid* Me: Well nvm then...

[@WylochsArmory]

Lulz thank you for watching.

[@DaneSaysStuff]

@@WylochsArmory Thanks for sharing!

[@farshaddailami4549]

Watching you build this stuff makes me want to try WH40K ... so thanks for giving me yet another distracton ... ;-) ... Great build, as always!

[@MortalityDeception]

Looks awesome, thanks for taking my suggestion! I am definitely going to have to make one of my own.

[@WylochsArmory]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@PlatypusScotsman]

Very informative and well executed. Really enjoyed the work with lights. I have some up and coming projects that I may use these techniques in. Thanks for sharing and the end result is sweet! Chao, John...

[@ScratchBashing]

Nice galaxy painting technique, there. ...Very advanced.

[@matthayward7889]

Both the oubliette and teleportarium look freaking amazing!!

[@WylochsArmory]

Thx!

[@Hnlamqe]

These make great display pieces! Great job. Looking forward to the next build.

[@WylochsArmory]

Thx!

[@Br0ns0n]

Dude...this is straight-up godly.

[@ianshaliczer]

A similar design would make for a great Necron-themed dice tower.

[@samanthalacroix2687]

Excellent ideas for my new Necron army.

[@damionsailors3148]

Dude! Great idea, Wyloch...Also love the toothbrush trick!!!

[@WylochsArmory]

Thanks! (also - toothbrush was not my idea, but it is a great one)

[@jimmd68]

Great build! If I were to play 40k, I would play Necrons for sure.

[@WylochsArmory]

Dig it

[@ScavengerKing]

Wylock you need to watch the Labyrinth, not only does it explain what an Oubliette is, it's a big inspiration for terrain crafting as it's all practical effects by the same people who did Dark Crystal.

[@dubbydapanda7189]

To be honest i'm not interested in Warhammer but this is badass. i really love this. You could also make one for other miniatures games and customize hem to your liking/ theme as a miniatures display. Great work here!

[@squelch13]

This is amazing, love how this turned out.. Between this one and the Teleportarium, makes me really want to do something like this for my Sylvaneth Hidden Enclaves.. Might have to do a big tree or something??

[@alistairbain6149]

Awesome build as usual 👍🏼 What I’m struggling with is that an oubliette is usually a hole in a dungeon into which an unfortunate prisoner is thrown and then FORGOTTEN about - very deliberately. From the French ‘Oublier’ - To forget. But then, heh, does it really matter? Still a freakn awesome piece of building!

[@athonkiller2980]

Now I challenge you to build the web way, or a web way gate with a web way portal design behind it.

[@johntakacs9441]

Really nice looking piece!

[@WylochsArmory]

Thx!

[@mykediemart]

Oubliette! Have you never seen Labyrinth Hoggle: Oh don't act so smart. You don't even know what an oubliette is. Sarah: Do you? Hoggle: Yes. It's a place you put people... to forget about 'em!

[@pervyturtle2673]

Great stuff. Looks like I need to learn how to wire and solder

[@Chase14videos]

I'm trying to think of a Webway or Denizens of the Warp version of this

[@WylochsArmory]

'Tis on my list - if you get an idea plz PM me on facebook!

[@ianshaliczer]

Something similar to Miniature Scenery’s Elven Dias could work. Combine the “floating” of Wyloch’s oubliette with the “open floor plan” of his teleportation chamber. Add some space elf organic curved arches and maybe figure out how to get the blinky LED lights inside the gem stones...? miniaturescenery.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=6&products_id=66

[@ArgentChaosJames]

Very cool! Didn't expect to see another Ambush-like terrain piece after the Teleportarium Chamber. This one looks really impressive and complex when you first see it, but is fairly manageable once you see the steps that go into it. Also, I can't believe I forgot about the toothbrush-flicking-for-stars technique, that will be indispensable if I ever get around to making a play area for Orion's Gate. On the theme of ambush-assistance, I wonder if the power of chipboard and hot glue could be used to make a Drop Pod that can both have units put in it and still be used on the battlefield. I find Drop Pods interesting concepts, but with their size they seem excessive.

[@WylochsArmory]

[@IDICBeer]

Awesome job fella, love it :D NECRONS!!

[@WylochsArmory]

High praise

[@s.k4713]

possible suggestion but for the tyranid tunneling horrors maybe a deep underground diorama to keep the trygons and mawlocs when in reserve.

[@aubrimus2410]

For orks just get a foil ball and throw it at the enemy

[@saxon2846]

Hey wyloch! I really love your stuff, and what you do to help me in terrain is amazing! I was just wondering, do you think you could maybe make like a building of sorts that is like, on a relic world! Like, basically if the space marines of ,say, a spartan like chapter, were to gather on a holy world in a holy building, it would be that. Thanks for everything!

[@Underworlddream]

Cool. You could used that also as a display case for your mini or kill team. Have you considered making one for the other faction? I hope you consider doing so.

[@WylochsArmory]

Several are on the to-do list.

[@jktechwriter]

Dang it, Bill... you just keep knocking them out of the park.

[@grayeaglej]

All these same Necron techniques are very handy for irradiated Fallout/Wastelands builds as well :D Woo hoo!

[@cmedalis]

@@harlandmountain7998 we all need to know what the rest of those jean-stealer infestation nodes looks like!

[@TheMichaellathrop]

I'm really curious if there is a transparent black paint that would stick to the shiny side of the CD for basing star field you did, maybe some thinned down enamels.

[@draconicworkshop5679]

Hey I have a cool idea, what if you did a tunnel or "lurking" underground sort of area for tyranids, a set up for genestealers, or trygons, and for trygons they have a rule about all trygons in the same tunnel exit at the same time, so maybe that could be worked into it. Or possibly a low orbit sort of set up for flying units with deep strike.

[@WylochsArmory]

Already have a WIP on that exact thing. ;-)

[@leroymay8156]

I recommend to buy the microswitches in bulk of some chineese seller on Ebay or Amazon. 50 Switches are available here for 9€ delivered at Amazon Prime. Also battery sockets are fairly cheap (about 50 cents a piece), so you are able to exchange them if the batteries are empy without effort.

[@WylochsArmory]

The problem is shipping. They're cents a piece sure but then $10 in shipping. Oy.

[@HarrisSinclair]

Time to go find some Purple LEDs for my Deathmarks (They're Black & Purple)

[@thexenoist3493]

Make a Manta hold for Tau please! (I'm not buying a $2000 forge world manta)

[@ianshaliczer]

The Xenoist just buy a modestly priced pre-owned minivan. They cost about the same, weigh about the same, and are equally impractical as an actual gaming piece. Although, the minivan is a lot easier to transport to your Friendly Local Game Store.

[@Fotoman08]

Nice work.

[@samthompson2980]

Superb! 😊 really good look, looks like a coffin, was that deliberate as matches for Necrons?

[@MrGWillickers]

Great video as always! I'm a little confused about what those round shiny discs you used for the base are. Some sort of ancient technology or something? /s

[@skronberger]

You should do a necron scyth next.

[@brettjackson3343]

Maybe you could do a drop pod bay at some point?

[@Ironfist85hu1]

Could we see some tyranids related terrain? ^^ Or ork? :P

[@sailor1566]

Have you had any experience using bristol board in lieu of chipboard? Just wondering if youd recommend as a substitute, diggin your videos btw :-)

[@Walican132]

Where did you buy those plastic rods. I need those in my life.

[@WylochsArmory]

brand is Plastruct - they have a website - not sure where you are located.

[@EricWilliams-ms3ro]

I saw this and had a crazy idea hit me. Would you consider making a set of your dungeon tiles, but use the Necron colors instead of your classic color choice?

[@WylochsArmory]

That would LOOK amazing, but I don't know that I'd ever use it...nonetheless, added to my master thought-list.

[@Ironfist85hu1]

Oubliette: i know it from Crusader kings 2. :D
