[@Miniac]

December Giveaway Update: All the gifts are gone! Thank you to everyone who placed an order. Enjoy your goodies!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Goobs long lost brother. First

[@tannergee]

Dangit Jeremy, I was gonna make that joke

[@nickswetmodels]

Just checked out your channel hope I can do work like yours one day brother beauteful work!

[@SmellsLikeSadness]

when the paint bravely podcast music started playing I'm legit sitting there like... hmmmmmmmm

[@DaronSchmit]

At 1:20 I was even whisked away to his magical land of Paint Bravely (The Podcast)

[@AThousandSons1]

If you put Val and goobs in the same room the universe might implode from too much concentrated wholsomeness

[@BenChmark1_]

I'd love to see a sequel to this, or even a whole series! I'd love to see Valbjorn teach us how to create swords, and maybe some of the more complex sculpting (e.g. hair, high-detail work) in a way that's approachable to beginners!

[@axcel9128]

He has a patreon where he has lots of in depth tutorials

[@BenChmark1_]

@axcel9128 I saw in the outro - this was a great preview of his expertise, I'll definitely check it out! I know YT isn't going to make as much money as a patreon, but it's a lot more approachable, so I appreciate Valbjorn putting some of his skill out there for free as well. I particularly liked the format in this video of student + teacher in this video because Scott asked questions that I've had about sculpting before during the process.

[@Vlad_The_Imposter]

This was great. I like the format of having someone who is a beginner to ask clarification on things he wouldn't think to mention because they seem obvious to him. More like this.

[@iron_buddha]

YES!!! Scott you were looking for feedback a while back, but i didn’t have any ideas- but YES this is content i want, more sculpting content. the two of you work together well

[@Leb3s]

Valbjorn is such an excellent teacher!! Great to see you are doing well Val!

[@spencerwaters9645]

This is wildly informative. Valbhorn is a great communicator. And great questions from Scott.

[@pickyourteethup]

Valbjorn really treats it like an art rather than a hobby.

[@xephorce]

you should invite him back for more video collaborations like this.. this was enjoyable and good knowledge to have gained.

[@stankshop]

I love seeing these celebrity guest appearances! First Squidmar gets Harry Potter and now you've got Dave Mustaine!?! So cool! Watches video. Hears other name. Refuses to change original perception.

[@EnderLord007]

I really like that this video starts on some finer points of using a file. If this were a tutorial it would be all too easy to just say “file the haft so it’s a little bit oval shaped” and be done with it. Going over material choice, the objective of what you’re doing, some historical context, and how to make the tool actually work for you is a lot of really good info.

[@tannergee]

Its fun to see the pro helps noob you've done a number of times, but in reverse. Especially since this isnt your usual medium, its not more painting, its a new addition to the hobby. Love it

[@13Nagash13]

My first attempts at sculpting were clumsy but because I was doing basic nurgle stuff, it was OK. I briefly spoke to a gw sculptor at games day 99, and he showed me how you could make boils in cracked skin by pressing a retracted ball point pen into the green stuff, then use knife blade to draw a few cracks radiating outwards from the boils. It was simple but added a lot to my 3.5 edition nurgle marines.

[@Finkeldinken]

Wow! Really good teacher AND Scott, you’re a really good student! Asking good questions and sculpting bravely. It is very clear that you completely trust Valbjorn’s competence to pull you back out if you get yourself into trouble, or be alert enough to warn you in good time before it happens. Man, I’d definitely go on a weekend intensive with this dude! Thank you for sharing.

[@Haste444]

I met Valbjorn at a local real estate event. The agent actually introduced us since he knows we're both in the hobby in varied capacities. He was insanely nice and seems so chill and down to earth.

[@gregmccormack5709]

HOLY SCHNIKES!!! Those sculpted details look incredible. Those Minis at the start🤯🫢😳

[@erikbraun473]

Scott looks like a kid in a candy store the entire time and it's so awesome and infectious to see that excitement and interest!

[@captainweekend5276]

2:29 my phone when it's on my desk and gets a notification

[@Miniac]

hahahahahaha

[@GCchanneled]

valbjorn is literally a gentle viking. great video guys!

[@fisherguy45]

Jason is an excellent instructor and teacher! Loved his perfect level of direction. A lot of the time, the pros are so unconsciously competent at the task , they don't know how to give good clear instructions. Jason does not have this problem. well done

[@andyromano3215]

Oh man, I really enjoyed this. Val was a fantastic guest teacher…his passion for the topic really transmits and he has such a great, empathetic way of teaching. Sculpting isn’t the most compelling hobby topic for me personally, but I would 100% be excited to see more content between the two of you. Great job and thanks for the great content!

[@marcmarti5273]

great one! we need more of this kind of complementary-to-painting videos! absoluetly LOVE IT!

[@wilfbiffherb]

What a thoroughly enjoyable video, thanks so much for making it. Would love to see more on this.

[@DavidHesselfeldt]

What a treat. I love this format because you also ask good questions as a learner. Val is awesome and got my follow. Would love to see more like this, both in skills you are new to, and also in skills you know well, but get anothers approach to the subject.

[@HellMessiah666]

Val has a great way of explaining his process. Great video.

[@theBomblu]

The All-Father in the flesh! MINIAC MONDAYS WOOOO!

[@dddonttrip]

Valbjorn 'effing rules! Loved this content hope you had fun making it. This was a treat to watch.

[@owmycheek]

This was so great, very cool to get some insight into his hobby flow. Also I feel like there was great stuff to take away for every part of the hobby , especially that intentionally slowing down part. I know I sometimes struggle when going from basecoating to layering when painting and end up going in way too strong, I really should have this approach where I start with something that will remind me to change my pace.

[@altarofthedeadgods_wargame]

the SMILE on Scott's face!

[@HobbyDad_dy]

Super sick video. Would love to see more Baby Bjorn around here. Maybe something for your DEldars?

[@samhoban2509]

Val the ultimate dude. I imagine him deriving so much joy from chilling alone and creating greatness. Thanks guys

[@frosty_otter7155]

Valbjorn inspired me to start sculpting beards on my space wolves. Love seeing him break down his process.

[@chicagohobbyhero]

Very cool to see and hear from other creators, thanks for putting together the collaboration.

[@utgar131]

I really love these begginer videos. The format really works and has the feel of a in person class!

[@jacobbalensiefer3846]

I love seeing hobby stuff from non KZbin people. Honestly a how series of interviews/demonstrations would be awesome.

[@roberthorvath9371]

All your latest videos are fantastic., but this one is brilliant. It will help the longfangs learn a new trick or two!

[@Megalordsalmon]

I love Valbjorn’s content I wish he posted more on KZbin. Love his modeling work.

[@Kittenmarines]

This was awesome. I had the good fortune to take a class with Val and recommend the same to anyone who found this interesting.

[@Son_of_Morkai]

Awesome to see my teacher Valbjorn here...love it

[@AdrianCSmart]

This was an awesome collab, and a genuinely helpful tutorial!

[@ilVecchioTroll]

Valbjorn is a living legend

[@jdh6894]

Love this type of video, great conversation and as a new and aspiring kitbasher, it’s fun to see other model skills beyond the paint. I hope this video performs well enough to merit revisiting the format.

[@NickAt-Knight]

Loving the weekly videos!

[@peteg3815]

As someone from the east coast of good ol' canada, seeing these two make TPB references warms the cockles of my heart. Great Video, Scott !!

[@NoviWargaming]

I love seeing how far Val has come. I remember playing Deep Rock Galactic back in the day with him with a mutual friend.

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

Well. I learned a bunch of new stuff today. Thanks for sharing!

[@Owitsch]

That was such an interesting video! Could have watched another hour! Thanks!

[@benmiles00]

7:50. I love that table Scott. Our DnD group bought an old beaten up pool table and we are ready to get it converted for play. We are planning on having a shell that will be suspended above the table that can be brought down to rest on top via a pulley system. Proper old fashioned chains are definitely a requirement. Hahaaaa!

[@robmafrici2052]

Dude I would watch a whole series of videos like this. So sick

[@leecave8574]

I love these longer, more fleshed out, instructional videos. Would love to see how the 🪓 turned out painted up and on a mini. How it contributed to the feel of a figure. Subscribed till I die and painting more minis. (Only not for a while as I broke my spine and painting upside down socks, trust me)

[@uruk_bye1232]

Val is a top tier guy. Very glad to see him here!

[@joshbernal4864]

Val seems like a real chill guy.

[@MacKayVer40k]

Brother been cranking videos. Love your work ethic. Also I been looking forward to this video since you first mentioned you had a 1 on 1 with him. Ahha

[@mytabletopstandard1972]

I really enjoyed watching this video,. The pacing of it was fantastic, slowing down helped get the feel of the time it takes, and time that is needed to hand sculpt. It's not a quick process but is relaxing and rewarding. Once again, I love that the edit suited the video and wasn't edited to a template just to hit a deadline. One of my favourite videos Scott.

[@antochaotica]

I'm digging this super chill vibe. New content is solid, good rotation of awesomeness, hobby knowledge and fun.

[@richardebourne6332]

This is my second time around with painting minis, having come back via scale models (le mans style cars). What i love about some of the kits was adding in more engine detail, using interesting materials, and now i bring that to my astral bear space marines. I used to do hair, facial hair, weapon mods and hats for my 40k armies 20y ago. But now am doing bear pelts, cloaks, standards for my ancients..... It's a lot of fun experimenting. Some of the finer details on those kit bashes are just amazing! Would love to see more of how to do that, especially the handles on the axes. Great video guys!

[@robertoumpierrez1565]

This was perfect as I was finishing some little conversion work with Miliput. Maybe you could do a new series about sculpting to help the noobies like me

[@Jtobiwon]

Crazy timing here. A handful of dnd minis of mine recently had all of their weapons break off.

[@nicolaso921]

That is greeeaaaat containt. The glass surface with parchement paper was somehow an enlighting moment after 30 years in the hobby! 😅

[@WoodyREC]

Absolutely fascinating watch - loving these different variety of videos (MESBG, Board Games and now this!)

[@cwj138]

Good video with much to think about and try. Thank you.

[@scottytedrow9272]

This is great-more of these, please!

[@woolyyyyyyy]

Val is a really good teacher, this is great!

[@ChaseDaOrk3767]

This may come in handy for when I want to make my own mini weapons (especially for making my Plague Marines into Nurgle-corrupted Blood Angels from the Dornian Heresy)

[@rhag1394]

Absolute blast of a video! I really enjoyed watching this as I knew I would. Valbjorn's conversions are epic and his calm teaching style really suits this kind of extra meticulous work.

[@MikeScarbro]

This was awesome! I’ve always been too intimidated to sculpt anything, but watching this process and hearing you both talk things out makes it seem very straightforward.

[@miskatonic__]

This is GOLD. Thanks to both of you!

[@Maxinkaiser]

epic video...long time since i saw scott legit enjoying like before

[@Ninjorz]

Dude! You're killing it! Thank you for this video, you're on a roll, and thank you to Valbjorn for sharing his techniques. FANTASTIC idea to have him as a guest!

[@tjthehobopainter9173]

Good energy, great info, super cool 😄

[@MrHoogoos]

Amazing video! I learned so much! I absolutely love this style of content.

[@MiniAxeCrafts]

*watching, nodding along, convincing myself those legendary results are instantly achievable just by watching this video* Excellent. Lets give it a go...

[@Miniac]

Val's instruction made me feel like I could do it easily! Give it a shot!

[@elixiris4101]

Love the chemistry, such a lovely hobby experience. I had a huge grin on my face for most of this video.

[@shasla-xv88]

Fantastic content idea and execution

[@Rayuaz]

This was an awesome and very insightful video! It also be pretty awesome if you would make a video with Boris Woloszyn from Westphalia Miniatures about sculpting miniatures from scratch.

[@GandalfGreyPill]

heck yea! im going to be studying this video so much lol. Space Wolves for the win!

[@chappy4756]

Dave Mustaine.... I mean Valbjorn does some amazing work. Such a patient and articulate teacher too. Great job lads, inspired me to give it a go for this weekend's hobby time.

[@DAD_Audio]

This is the kind of wholesome content that just warms your holiday heart!

[@greaterpainter7996]

Love Valbjorns work

[@DavidOrkisz]

This is one of your very best. I've followed Valbjorn for a while now and everything blows me away. Certainly going to try this particular putty...

[@CastleOD]

At Adepticon in 2023 I met Valbjorn while painting in fort wappel, gave me one of his stickers and had a oh crap moment, chatted for a bit and he too is also one of my artists.

[@SheepdogMIP]

Wow 🤯, such clear and detailed instructions. So much passion and still so relaxed. Loved the video!

[@SinEternal808]

Great vid. Loved the Trailer Park Boys reference had me laughing way too hard.

[@jarlvalbjorn]

🤓

[@Wijkert]

13:23 that's what GW sculptors used to do

[@gavindavis3640]

I love this tutorial oriented video.

[@Broken777Arrow]

Great video. And I just wanted to say, your camera work and editing on this was particularly good. So many great angles!

[@nofuxgivens2797]

Some good improvised tools are cut and sanded popsicle sticks as well as q tips with paper shafts. Both of these will also hold some moisture so it helps when doing fine details or fixing mistakes like drag marks or folded edges

[@PainfullyRad-u5f]

Super nice dual close-up setup. Huge kudos.

[@The_pebble_music]

DAMN that intro was metal

[@Mordraen]

This is incredibly inspirational. thanks for sharing !

[@LeeSandilands]

This guy is so knowledgeable. Would love to see more of this sort of video. Some funny bits in it. lol

[@rike889]

This guy rips! Good episode brother.

[@angylizard9344]

Gotta love this video it's so cool to learn about sculpting at this scale :) Also HOW THE F*** DOES HE DO THE POINTED SHIN GUARDS, I need them

[@mifuneseven947]

Would love to see more of this skill building + kitbashing where Scott can ask the noob questions so that we don't have to. ;)

[@mikealtschwager3851]

ya dude this is one of the coolest things you've done. 30 minute demos with someone else driving and you play host works extremely well (I hope puts a little less burden on you?)

[@HuntersOA]

Just a little note - I really came to like sculpting with 3d printing resin. I mix it with baby powder in different consistencies, apply, cure with UV lamp, and I can immediately sand, carve, etc. I started just fixing mistakes but it really works wonders for adding hair strands and what not :D

[@chaoshead87]

This was very good additional content for your channel AND introduced me to a fantastic sculptor, thanks!

[@ThomasGallinari]

I'm following his work on IG, first time I watch him on a video, such a nice guy

[@imrandy85]

Loving the teacher/student format for videos. Please keep doing these!

[@benfieldhicks7064]

26:56 100% i tried hair after watching a Val video and it looked decent. If i can make it passable, anyone can.

[@chrisday9297]

That music seems familiar ;) "Welcome to Sculpt Bravely" 😂

[@thomastw6757]

I recall the melody but I can't remember where it is from.
