What about next a mix between night terror bird and owl+swiftlet/oilbird? Or with base on dinosaur shapes, oligocene mammals+monotrem+marsupial-+synapsid mix..

[@Boylei]

Really cool project, man! Everything looks fantastic. That resin base was a great way to follow up your previous resin experience. You should be very happy with this one!

[@gameyybuilds]

Yeah so relieved that it worked well, if not I might’ve never used the stuff again. Crazy how the volume makes such a huge difference. I didn’t do anything else different apart from pouring less this time. Live and learn.

[@hotdog1511]

Omg I saw this video and immediately thought of Boylei this model is just the type of stuff I love I’m deffinetly subscribing to you

[@commander_razor]

@@hotdog1511 ahh, sameeee

[@vinnygarcia3043]

Incredible job, are you an art major? Pretty cool that Boylie commented. Glad I found your channel

[@Fanroghscorner]

I don't know why but Giant Djogarri I feel like fits , it also implies that there is a regular sized Djogarri so if you want to make a smaller bird then you already have a name for it 😊

[@gameyybuilds]

Ooh I love it!

[@violetkeresey186]

This is so creative!! I love the concept of robots and animals living together and benefiting from each other as there aren’t many humans left to take care of them. I think a build that would reflect this concept really well would be an old robot who is the guardian of a forest and takes care of all the animals.

[@gameyybuilds]

I LOVE this idea!

[@PrayingLotus]

Very cool project! I’m sure if Adam from North of the Border saw this he wouldn’t just say it’s good, he’d probably say “it’s good enough”. You did amazingly with your first time of clay as well!

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks! It wasn't exactly my first time sculpting, but it was my first making a bird. It would be super cool if Adam showed up here, I'd be curious to hear his thoughts on this creation too!

[@David-qs7yv]

I just discovered this channel, so going back and watching from the start is so interesting. "I don't usually sketch my builds" Has turned into fully sketched and detailed builds.

[@gameyybuilds]

Yeah, this was the start of that trend, and it's a huge help in the process! I've learned a lot since this build.

[@BillMakingStuff]

Hey robots and nausicaa inspired chocobos... my favourite.

[@gameyybuilds]

Ha, just watched your Ohm video and was surprised to hear you say that Nausicaa is your favorite Ghibli film, too. I feel like that one gets a bit overlooked, but it's the one I keep going back to. Something about that world is very intriguing.

[@grey7040]

The colors on the birds feathers are GORGEOUS. I feel like the video must not showcase how lovely it is irl.

[@gizzzbo]

" it looks great if you blur your eyes and forget what fish look like" 😂😂😂. Dude funny!

[@ramsilva]

Man, your attention to detail here is next level. Love that you added a little layer of UV resin to the fish in the djogarri’s beak to make it look like it was freshly plucked from the stream.

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks! I love how that name just instantly caught on!

[@restock_1731]

That drawing in the beginning is wicked awesome. The bird turned out really really awesome here, the colors make it pop. I know I've said it a million times, but I just love watching your work, I'm super glad that Boylei Hobby Time suggested your channel. As for the best part of this video, "it looks great, if you blur your eyes and forget what fish look like." 🤣🤣. Fantastic video. 👍

[@gameyybuilds]

Thanks so much Mitch! You’re really binging the channel today and I love it!

[@restock_1731]

Awesome built, Getting some strong Kenshi vibes from this model.

[@salamanda550]

"birds are pretty foreign to me" Then you bust out one of the cleanest bird head sketches I've ever seen.

[@TheSmugglersRoom]

excellent build! Nice recovery on the resin!!! Glad you didn't toss in the towel and tried again!

[@gameyybuilds]

Only because I had some left over! But thanks!

[@lukedominicodonnell2347]

Here are some names - Kakari, Casuparo, Kakaari, Casukapo, Kakasuari, Casukaparo, Kakapari, Casupo, Kakasu - combinations of Kakapo and Casuari. Two very noble birds.

Good stuff mate, keep it up! Can't wait to see more of this universe, I'm always down with robo cowboys riding giant animals

Will do, excited to work on more stuff in this universe! Thanks!

20:34 when I pause to admire that creek base and then unpause the video I expect the water to start moving. Well done!

[@troyboyd7984]

Woah bro, it wasn't until you said something I realized you were a smaller channel. The production quality, the content, your skill. Brother I thought this was already a high income channel! Keep up the amazing work! Love the veriety

[@gameyybuilds]

Income? What's that? 😂

[@troyboyd7984]

@@gameyybuilds something you are well on your way too receiving!

[@jennaferknight3850]

Mind blown.......😱 did not expect the story twist.

[@joriss3130]

Again a beautiful creation. It's really refreshing, admitting your mistakes when painting. I often see other people coat: prime, brown, black, brown again, yellow, no brown again, maybe grey ?,...... As if that was the plan from the start :| Painting is often searching for the right color composition. Especially when its in a imaginary realm.Never cover that up :) Its the end result that lasts, not the way you got there!

[@aymeeclary6037]

Wow this is amazing! The sculpting, the base, the editing, the music, the vibe of the world you're creating, really looking forward to your next builds 👍

[@PKTCrafts]

Dude! That is one awesome build. Btw, I also tell people that the UV light used for nails is my wifes and that I just borrow it from time to time.

[@gameyybuilds]

No, really! I swear! 😂

[@goofyguysentertainment4582]

Your builds are so underrated. I'm so impressed.

Turned out great! Suggestion: Clear plastic dowel to hold up the fish in the epoxy

[@MonnizProductions]

looks great, the resin turned out perfect! bird looks like your first sketch

[@gameyybuilds]

Yes, what a relief! Just wish I'd gone smaller scale on that first pour. Oh well!

[@frog_goblin]

i saw your most recent video and was so entranced by the world building i knew i needed to come back and watch the rest. “if it couldn’t stand on two legs… why not try two?” gave me a good laugh. i love the work and your sense of humor and can’t wait to keep seeing more come out of it!

[@SturleyArt]

You managed to get an iridescent effect really well and the epoxy pool with the fish looked incredible. Thanks for sharing this video send creativity.

You seem very self critical, but this is a very well done sculpture even if its not how originally envisioned. I appreciate that you let us know your inspiration for some of your design ideas, good work!

suggestion for the lore: droids taking the place of humans after the robot revolution, but still treating humans like how they would treat an innocent sentient being

Awesome result!! Thank you for sharing your time, skills and adventure!👍🤟🪡🎨

[@emilflognoid1532]

I was thinking it might be named after the warbeling cry it loudly screams, hence it’s a “Wallup”… but in particular it’s a type that comes from the rain forests in a region called Nirvadah… therefore it’s known as a “Nirvadah Forest Wallup”… close relative of the more scaley, less feathery, “Desert Wallup.”

[@gameyybuilds]

Love the suggestion! However, the winning suggestion was “giant djogarri” 😊

[@emilflognoid1532]

Cool! But not in my universe! In my head it’s a Wallup…

[@thesykoward8188]

That was amazing!

[@gameyybuilds]

Thank you!

[@daikansanchez7674]

I think you picked a nice color pallet for the bird as it blends well with the water and makes it seem more natural. You can even integrate that into the lore (if you haven't already) with the bird being indigenous to wetlands and floodplains. And if it is used as a transportation method/pack animal, you can call it something like a "Water Mule Fowl" or something like that.

[@damightyscoob]

Brilliant!

This is awesome, really inspiring, i love the cocept of droids and animals living together, i’m in the process of creating a fictional world of my own, it’s centered arround animals running and living arround a steam powered railway, there are humans too but they’re not your average people, they’re what you might call personifications, kind’ve like hitalia but instead of countries it’s films tv shows, thanks for the inspiration man

The feisty Mhoa-kka bird of the Endless Plains of Krhyssan-Ti where it lives it's precarious life cycle of birth-death-rebirth every 333 years shedding new iridescent plumage for each iteration. An amazing flightleas bird that receoves its nutrition directly from the planet's nitrogen-dense atmosphere, the Mhoa-kka is truly a wondrous creation of the Phanu-ra deities.

[@fenrirwalker7083]

Using your brand new hobby mat as a table covering when pouring shows confidence! Id probably use a news paper or something. Just in case 😅

@@gameyybuilds it's how we learn as makers my first pour leaked through the foam I had used and basically disappeared. Your skills will improve but failure is what makes us better.

[@gameyybuilds]

@@ethobbyshow Yep, so true. I am considering next time possibly using the UV resin as a sealer first, then pouring the epoxy.

[@gojirazillasaurus6341]

@@gameyybuilds no problem!

[@michaelyoung7261]

You said you’re open to critique so here’s mine: the bird should have had more of a keel in its chest for the lessened wing muscles to be anchored to. It just seems too much like a fish/worm in the chest, and the rump should have been more round and fluffy/fuzzy. And legs could have used more meat on the thighs. Other than that, things that my experience of caring for chickens for over a decade taught me, it looks great. I’ve been enjoying binging this.

[@gameyybuilds]

Yep absolutely right. I should’ve done more referencing of actual bird anatomy before sculpting, I was kind of going off the cuff for this!

[@ret7army]

Poking the feathers in one by one .... reminds me of the daffy duck episode ... where he says "fortunately I have them all numbered for just such an eventuality"

[@mathieugariepy2948]

[@earlware4322]

Awesome everything here; sculpting, modeling, painting, filming, editing, etc. I really love the droid, nice way to "save/recycle" a previous build. Shame Mabbit's construction wasn't filmed. Though I do have one nit to pick/question... What does a droid in a post-apocalyptic society need with a leather bedroll??? Otherwise this was a phenomenal build, I am both ashamed of my own paltry attempts and inspired to do better. Thanks for sharing and keep on keeping on!!

The fish's name should be Stream fish or river fish with the aegis language (It is a common fish and a invasive fish, the descendants of carp commonly found in any large bodies of water, this fish can adapt in harsh environments and climates.)
