SCRATCH BUILT Scifi Building for Warhammer 40k, Star Wars Legion, Necromunda, and more!

[@chrisnesbit9068]

As a high school math teacher, I approve this video!

[@servoscribe630]

If my grade 12 math teacher had us building stuff like this, maybe I wouldn't have gotten a D haha

[@dumbdrumm5631]

Woah, a real life math teacher out in the wild.

[@chrisnesbit9068]

@@dumbdrumm5631 Did you raise your hand to say that?

[@codywilson4938]

Sorry to wake you

[@TheDapperLad]

As somebody who enjoys ice cream, I approve this video!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

The window! 😍

[@systemglitchproductions6627]

Right?! That alone made me wanna make something! Maybe put a flickering light inside as well

[@earlware4322]

Yes, if wiring your structure with LEDs are a bit out of your reach, mangling/customising a battery-powered LED tea light is always an option. They are cheap (found at the local $ shop) and you can add color by using translucent paints.

[@Miscast]

Very nice man, lovely result. Thanks for the feature of my bits too eee

[@Screamingtilltheend]

Ive gotta say. Since you dialed back on your uploads your video quality has improved tenfold along with it feeling like you enjoy the hobby so much more again. This video is super inspiring, really makes me wanna invest in some fancy new machines

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Goooooood. Come to the terrain side. You're the GOAT Scott

[@never9rown]

And the master himself spoken! xD

[@Miniac]

That terrain build you had was amazing

[@MonsieurPopu]

"Not everyone can be goobs." is a mood.

[@Spexxatron]

"Is planning worth it? Society still doesn't know." Cracked me up :D

[@pervyturtle2673]

One of the thing I like most about your videos is you freely admit when you're new to something or not skilled at it. Also you're more than willing to give credit to people who you learn from.

[@paradox5391]

You're alive! We've missed you Scott.

[@kelimar3014]

He lives! Great to see your take on terrain! Hoping to see more from you in the future.

[@rmhtexas5982]

The tread wear on the ramp is a really slick touch.

[@JoeHardacre]

Oh hey Scott's alive Edit: and he hits us with a Darude sandstorm reference. Very impressive.

[@WABWSM]

Marvelous!!!!!! The subject matter, the processes involved, the attention to detail, THE GREEBLES! I love this project! All the pixelated applause!

[@Michael_Gombos]

I found that adding a satin varnish after the browns/oranges/rust but before the chipping medium application gave great effects.

[@djm.o.d.1]

dude, you went from bashing and painting to full on designing and making your own model. simply amazing and keep it up

[@FizzOfInsanity]

I am inspired. Printed up some terrain bits and I'm gonna finally put them to use! Excellent video Scott!

[@Miniac]

Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@valecraftworks]

I'm always excited for math! Love the build Scott!

[@jsidaho1957]

Cool garage and thanks for the tutorial Scott. I had no idea a Cricut could cut through styrene, especially that well!

[@grud8495]

I think we can all agree 5:32 made the video!! Awesome job Scott, keep it up!

[@warmlobster]

I had just said to myself yesterday how I should make a bunch of terrain. This is a sign.

[@52Miniatures]

It's a wonderful build. That window - lovely. Thank you

[@gomezzara_creative]

Ah yes, a great way to start a Friday: a Fresh New Miniac Video. Thank you so much Papa! I really like the direction of your videos, you are trying to invite to be part of a process, not only to show a step-by-step, recipe or else. It has all the things to entertain, teach and of course, to guide to anyone to be part of the hobby. Keep the incredible job papa!!!

[@gomezzara_creative]

Also, the building. Freaking +A

[@gomezzara_creative]

AND FINALLY, I truly suggest you to check the VMS products for weathering and preparing your next projects! Specially the Auxiliary Products. Like the VMS Metal Prep 4K (Fancy name, but extremly useful for metallics parts).

[@Harakirj]

Haha candid cam, Mrs Scott doing laundry in the back lol

[@f1l603]

Oh boy that Brad t-shirt sure is alive!

[@Eralen00]

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well

[@aaronwhite1786]

It took my brain a second. I was sitting here like "Is that fucking...Brad?"

[@carlstanford7607]

Great job. The craftsman does a lot of good videos on this too. Collaboration with a sock puppet perhaps ?

[@ScorpionP2C]

Very nifty!! Its wild seeing something scratch built like this and then the final result, looks like something from a movie mini-set.

[@joshuabrowncrow]

Your scratch building is inspiring Mr Scott. I saw your spaceman building when it was on tour with ninjon’s turtle, right here at my favorite game shop. Thanks, in a lot of ways, you helped me mentally survive that weird year we all just had.

[@reiner72]

Cutting machines are fantastic, I love making airbrush stencils with mine. Using it on styrene looks like a great time!

[@bicskeiz]

Looks absolutely awesome! The time it consumed too... This is the way.

[@Cat_Eyes_Jimmy]

Dude your cinematography and music choice is killing it. A gorgeous video to watch!

[@Hinaguy749]

A whole city wouldn't be feasible but a small diorama including an attached junk yard with a few derelict ships in he process of being scrapped would look real cool.

[@raelenebyrnes7296]

Fantastic...absolutely awesome...great to see your work and see how happy it has made you.

[@infinite13390]

Now that is a lovely building. Great work Scott!

[@foxhopepaintingandgaming1492]

Ive used some of these techniques for my MDF terrain but I did come away with some cool ideas I didn't think of for my MDF terrain. Thanks for making this video Scott!!

[@chuppath1ngy]

Man this video has it all, fellow mini creator references, great tips and tricks, and even a tiny bit of a hint that Scott is a Garlic Connoisseur? Awesome. Missed you dude!!

[@Chimer24-qs5wo]

Wow! All that planning was certainly worth it. Next level build.

[@ScytheNoire]

Looks amazing. The windowed portion looks like it may need supports under it to level out.

[@ProrokLebioda]

Seems like you've accidentally made a Borderlands style building! Great result. Awesome to see a concept realized!

[@RedBairnMedia]

Catch a ride!

[@Runemlarsen]

That was a really cool building, well done well worth the wait.

[@davidivarsson6264]

Sweet, thanks for putting in so much work, it really shows. Awesome building!

[@bitzbox]

This came out really nice. Good to see you back!

[@blindlyin2space600]

F**king phenomenal my dude. You’ve got me all jazzed up to make some shiz from scratch like my childhood self dreamed of. 10/10, would recommend

[@oniken2008]

Thanks for doing this!!! I've been trying to figure out the best way to create a custom garage for an upcoming campaign I'm currently working on. Having a 3D printer and a vinyl cutter already, and after seeing this and Black Magic Craft with his connex box tutorial I'm going to go "balls out" with this build. With luck, I'll film it all and post it on KZbin as one of my builds to start my own channel. Keep up the awesome work

[@jojoreilly]

Damn the production of these vids is AMAZING.

[@rosesred2155]

Supercool building, it really has that lived in feeling that some of the better starwars things match

[@Sualokinification]

Man, the jump in quality in your videos since you went off the weekly schedule has been incredible. Well done.

[@Ajax-wo3gt]

Dude! This is easily the best video you've ever made. I could watch a hundred more of these!

[@CypressPunk34]

You should bring your love of vampires, garages, and hot pink together and create figure of a vampiric mechanic with very loud fashion sense.

[@Voirreydirector]

I too vote for vampiric space Barbie’s!

[@orenfox4828]

Can I just say I looove the filming in this video

[@sw33n3yto00]

You have definitely embraced the quality over quantity philosophy. This is absolutely amazing.

[@jordandecourcy3147]

I remember doing this with my dad. We made a bunch of ork terrain using plasticard, old sprues, wood, and pink polystyrene. We made a couple buildings and a waaagh banner from dawn of war.

[@BillMakingStuff]

that's some nice chipping!

[@blackbelttaco9880]

I've been in a miniac drought and was super excited to watch

[@morgancooledge3557]

Always love to see applications that apply to multiple miniatures games like Star Wars: Legion. Keep up the great work!

[@Terrainosaur]

Great angles! I especially like the colour stripe.

[@ipwndcancer]

Awesome work! Lots of effort, but it all turned out amazingly.

[@jaketheglutenphreakharris6620]

Since there’s a ladder going up to the roof, there needs to be a lawn chair with a beer can in the cup holder or on a side table next to the chair. Throw some Astro turf underneath the chair and a shade umbrella with the large bulb Christmas lights wrapped around the edges. Grim-dark hill billy.

[@alertArchitect]

Quick aside, if Scott ever decides that KZbin isn't making him enough money anymore, he could make bank as a damn good metal vocalist. That growl / scream at the end of videos that he does is damn impressive. Keep up those vocals, my guy!

[@danroberts007]

Really, really nice work. You nailed it. I like the 2/3 white, 1/3 blue scheme… I’ve held off painting my Mantic Deadzone terrain ‘cause I couldn’t decide on colors; I think I’ll have to steal this from you. ;-) A friend of mine was painting OSL on some Zone Mortalis recently and the way you achieved the glow on your building lights is perfect. I’m sending him this video ASAP. Thanks for sharing with us, this was great! Also: One Page Rules… rules! 😃

[@Tchouptop]

Great ideas in this video. Thanks for showing us the process in awesome detail.

[@larrymanns364]

This turned out great! I know it might not be your wheelhouse but I'd love to see you create more terrain

[@credoimperialis]

these kind of videos are very, very interesting, also inspirational. Great job man.

[@MrBurningrubber]

Finally another video been waiting sooooo long for it. Looks absolutely amazing love it.

[@D7XYZproductions]

With some more *planning* you could probably register your styrene sheet on the cricut table and do a mirrored second cutting pass on the reverse side.

[@DougFromTheBayou]

One of the nicest terrain builds Ive seen in ages, good job dude!

[@MatthewBester]

Question: the hairspray chipping technique. Won't it just continue to chip and peel off over time?

[@High_Lord_Of_Terra]

That's a beautiful piece of terrain, absolutely love it.

[@Berserkerworks]

I really like the modular look of the building, reminds me of Titanfall. Hats off for tackling the geometry!

[@CraftingRacoon]

It's good to see you testing new stuff !! Hope to see more of this. I began my journey in terrain building less than 2 years ago and also started to use my (wife's) cricut machine few month ago on the same purpose thanks to 40khamslam too. Hobby is definitely a small world. Now i'll go paint more minis

[@bitterbrush2377]

Absolutely stunning work!

[@jebimasta4604]

Loved the Brad Leone cameo! and the modelling of course

[@mikeoneil1370]

That cricut shot is GLORIOUS

[@WoodenWizard]

also looks like a Satisfactory building. Satisfying build. nice work

[@DarianSilk1]

This thing is absolutely epic. You are an artist AND an artisan

[@tomaveryta]

Looks sick mate, would be great to have all those different tools!

[@hyosworld109]

I've been excited about this one since you started talking about it on the podcast! Worth the wait, that turned out awesome!!

[@pepiart1413]

Your skills blow my mind! The textures & details in this are insane 🙌🏻 worth the WAIT!

[@metajock]

Finally, someone else using one of these. I got a Brother Scan-n-Cut 2 years ago and I love it. I wanted it for greebles and doing book/prop pieces. Really good for making your own stencils, too. Never considered using it for doing curves, really good move there.

[@josephclimbs9495]

I love your scratch built diorama type stuff!!!! Great video Scott, thank you for your uploads!

[@03dashk64]

This turned out so well!

[@simonm8221]

Hei Miniac, glad to see you again! I personally don't care how often you post, but as long as what you are doing on screen is something that makes you happy, the video certainly conveys positive vibes and it is worth the wait! It is nice to see you trying out new things, and kudos for the video editing: this is really enjoyable. Thank you and take care!

[@simonm8221]

Ps: shouldn't you be wearing at least a simple mask when sanding? That dusts looks really....dusty!

[@PsiTechVirus]

This video is reason enough to get my SUB already. Doing all of this in a VektoR t-shirt, well that's just awesome!

[@bellefleur4089]

My word that rust looks so awesome!

[@chrispowell2947]

yayyy looks GREAT and I love terrain building videos. My current obessession is using Oyumaru (/blue stuff) to recast bits from my bits box to use as greeblies for terrain building, it's been a bit of journey getting them to a quality I'm happy with but I've now got a pile of stuff I can use for pretty minimal cost

[@figment5872]

Holy shit! I forgot Miniac existed!!! Im so pumped!

[@tbktthebigkidsteam8210]

This looks absolutely fantastic man

[@lexxi1310]

Looks so cool! Colour scheme and style gives me borderlands vibes ! :0

[@Luxorcist]

Not sure how often you do panel lining but id suggest looking at some chisels! I used to build Gundam models and used Madworks chisels(of varying sizes: .05-.50mm) for my panel lining. Super easy to use, just requires some practice and patience!

[@codybuchanan6466]

thanks for getting me back into the mood for hobbying

[@13Robzilla]

Really awesome work on this one.

[@chicagohobbyhero]

It's almost a futuristic Nighthawk type building. Great job and way to challenge yourself!

[@benn1181]

Great color selections

[@mossknight6118]

Man, your videography is on point ! Great video. Nice Vektor shirt by the way, awesome band ;)

[@earthmanbrick]

Really nice result

[@mevl4822]

Beautiful work man. Thank you

[@HTphyzycs]

This turned out great dude. Love the final result!

[@virisman]

Awesome video my guy! Learned a lot too so that’s a plus!!

[@OmegaDestroyer99]

I dig the dramatic button pushing.

[@FacilityD20]

It came out great my man! I am in the process of building a 40k style defense wall / fort hoping to have the video out in a few weeks, so this was very inspiring stuff.

[@johnathanrhoades7751]

This is rather beautiful...so neat!!
