Your channel just became my favorite channel. Your narration is exactly how my brain works.

[@Ginal2011]

An artist after my own heart - don’t measure, just go for it!

[@Siennaflower]

I love how you narrate your video as if you never saw it before! I get it. It's not that easy recording the audio later. Hysterical! 😂

[@tjennings4412]

The algo finally did me a solid. Showed me you. Have been laughing my way thru your amazing work. Your tslent is rivaled only by your self roasting commentary. Such a delight to hear someone with such great talent not take themselves so seriously. So relatable. Hope more folks get to stumble upon you and enjoy. You should have way bigger numbers. They'll come. Thats what she said. So, thank you for the great inspirations and most of all, your delightful humor. Also, the legs will fall in line eventually. You WILL beat them into submission. Eventually. Keep being fun.

[@followingthedopamine336]

🥹 OMG thank you..... So sweet to say.....just... thank you! My heart is full ♥️. And thank you Algo! You did me a solid too!!!!! Keep it up!!! 😉

[@fabiorodrigues890]

The work is Amazing and the audio... 😂😂😂 Such a funny awesome work and video

[@diyfireking]

Great build. This house looks beautiful 🥰🥰

[@craftymoss]

I really like your stairs ! Learned a few new tips and tricks, so thanks ! Love it !

[@ИльяКузнецов-м7ъ]

Превосходно! Выглядит очень уютно. Лайк!🙂👍

[@elsamou4718]

I love your humor 😍 greetings from Greece :)

[@christineingram55]

This looks amazing.I love all the detail you did throughout!it really brings it to life and when you added the dirt,rock and grass it finished the whole diorama off perfectly ..I have to admit you really had me chuckling with the way you comment it’s so entertaining.I can say you technical terms are a bit odd but it made it fun throughout,brightened up my day thanks..I love this ,it’s beautifully made and painted 🥰

[@followingthedopamine336]

Awwwww, thank you!!!! ♥️

[@lesleygoodall-page8035]

I love your voice over, made me smile….i talk like this when I’m making too! Fab build too.

[@muddyboots7753]

I was thinking the other day 'it's been a while since we've watched a video from this channel'. Now here we are. Love it 🥰"Rectangle squares" 😂🤣always a blast watching your videos.

[@followingthedopamine336]

Lol!! 🤣 Thank you!! I had technical difficulties, aka dead computer and lost video, but I'm back now!! ♥️

[@Feralfoundry]

Tie-con-dah-roe-gah . It's OK, you got close enough.😊❤

[@rhsart4130]

i dont know which was the funniest, the audio or the video, whatever i'd say both were adorable .

[@followingthedopamine336]

♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@bitcreativeilse]

Haha I second that. 😂

[@jillhirsh9260]

It's great! And the best part is listening how much fun you had making it! A true artist!

[@followingthedopamine336]

Aww, thank you!!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@theresaclifford5003]

I've missed you, so glad your back. Love it

[@followingthedopamine336]

Awwww 🥰 thank you!!!!

[@tracycoombs3332]

I love your voice-over over! So funny. Brilliant build. You remind me of Adam from North of the border😂

[@followingthedopamine336]

Awww, I love him!!! Thank you!!! ♥️

[@Feralfoundry]

❤❤❤❤ Just spent 33:14 minutes with my internal monolog.... I genuinely can not express how much I adore your voice over and skill! Just as a fun thing- use paper towel to create bark over foam. Mix modge podge and Elmer's glue 1 to 1 and it should give you some fantastic texture.

[@followingthedopamine336]

Really!!!! I haven't tried that!! 100% gonna try that next! And thank you.... ♥️♥️

[@jdubb1973]

Great job looks pretty cool. I would live in it.

[@vietnamese1016]

It looked great 👌🌷👍

[@bemabulldog3790]

This is my first time watching and I've never laughed so much

[@allaroundaries]

I was just thinking about your channel yesterday and wondering where you've been....I of course didn't subscribe before and couldn't remember the name of your channel, so I'm glad you popped up today. Also....I believe you can cut the excess of that kind of lights off and they still work.

[@followingthedopamine336]

I'm glad I popped up then, lol. And seriously, I had no idea you could do that! That would have been soooo much easier, lol. But alas, I like to make things difficult! 😉

[@cerisekappes580]

I absolutely love your videos!!!!! Really awesome tree house!!! 🏡

[@janetcameron4652]

Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@TheParkAttendant]

Those windows that poke out of the roof is called dormer's. I live in the desert, so Montana dirt is more colorful than the dirt around here

[@followingthedopamine336]

Dormers!!!!! Okay, I'm gonna try to remember, but please don't be upset if I fail in the future and continue to call them pop-out windows, lol. I have an absolutely awful memory!!!!!

[@jackcleveland1175]

Beautiful work! I love to see original builds like this.

[@dawneeduddy]

I love it! But, I think I could listen to you allllllll day no matter what you talk about! LOL New follower.

[@followingthedopamine336]

Awww, thank you!!!!!! ♥️

[@alanhoggard4554]

Wooooo, you are back.

[@GamerMama83]

I love your voice over :)

[@MimmiesMinis-KellyPenny]

Yes yes yes! It's all about the bevel!! Oh...and the details 😉 Mathing really isn't my forte so I guesstamate someti....who am I kidding. I do that all the time 🤷‍♀️ what can I say. Love the brown! Brown is the new black and goes with everything 😊. I really like the texture of the wood, love the verdigris of the metal sheeting panels (see what I did there?? LOL 😂) I would LOVE to love in a tree house and I would sooooo wrap the lights around the tree. It's singular 'roof'. Dormer, the window that pops out of the roof. Might wanna make a water hydrant close by just in case all the extra lighting in the third floor roof decides to combust. Oh, Ticonderoga is the name of the pencil. Best pencil on the planet. The company says it's best uses are foam stylus, texture maker, chewing implement for nail biting stopping option, and they also list writing implement but I've not used it for that purpose. People who do are probably rebels! LOL 😂😂 In all seriousness I just found your channel and can't believe I've not seen it until now! Anyway, I love your techniques for making wood texture, your metal ageing, bark making compound and the absolute fun you put in to your videos! I deal in sarcasm as a side gig so I really appreciate your dedication and upbeat vibe 🤩! It makes for a great experience and I'll be going back and watching your past videos to see what other gems I've missed out on. ❤️❤️

[@followingthedopamine336]

OMG, I love you!!!! ♥️ Like legit, please tell me you have a channel...........a twitch, a Twitter, a Tick Tok (aka x, I think 🤔)a podcast (whatever the hell that is) a WhatsApp or an Instagram!!! 🤣 Seriously though, you are amazing, thank you for finding me worthy, and enjoyable. Seriously the best comment of all time! ♥️

[@MimmiesMinis-KellyPenny]

@@followingthedopamine336 you...are... AMAZING!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰 Finding creative, spirited, "eclectic" people like myself is a passion of mine. People who understand that sarcasm is a super power and with great power comes great responsibility! Why oh why so many get upset is beyond me, so I have to make sure I'm in like-minded company before letting it fly🦃. I am in the process of getting things together for a miniature channel 🤦‍♀️ and it seems I'm having one set back after another...grrrr it's so frustrating! I feel, however, things may finally be coming together and hopefully my maiden video is going to be available relatively soon 🤪😂! When it's finally up I'll send you the link and if you would, please, let me know in all sarcastic honesty how I did and the level of professionalism, or lack thereof, the video exhibits. LOL 😂 thank you again for your incredible personality and the amazing things you make!! See you soon!!

[@followingthedopamine336]

@@MimmiesMinis-KellyPenny I can't wait!!!! Please send me a link!!! I think I could learn a few things from you....I seriously need to perfect my sarcasm/dry humor/self-deprecation/ overall intelligence, and I think you might be the perfect teacher!!!! Lol! Honestly, the moment I stopped trying, and just recorded my voice overs organically, without thinking and without a plan, it was like a light bulb moment. Professionalism is overrated, people want to connect with real people. I have just decided that flying my freak flag, and just being me, is way better than pretending to be someone else........not that I've ever actually pretended, but I'm definitely guilty of polishing a turd, aka, trying hard to sound like I know what I'm doing, or saying, when I clearly don't! Seriously can't wait to be your first subscriber!!!!! ♥️

[@MimmiesMinis-KellyPenny]

@@followingthedopamine336 **singing** ahYaYussSSaH !!!! 🤸🏻💃🥜🤣🤣🤪😜 I'm pretty sure the "learning" will work both ways🤣! And learning comes from practice and contrary to popular insanity 🤬 belief, practice makes progress!!!!! Anyway, I am humbled and honored by your excitement for the channel I'm trying to get up and running. I wanted to ask if you'd mind if I connected with you on Facebook? I'm going to be making a folder for the miniature pieces I've made or have in progress so others can see my work. I do have to get a watermark app because, sadly, people will steal other people's work 🤬😥.

[@rivercityminis]

Another amazing build

[@jenpink4298]

This treehouse is very beautiful and fancy! I love it!

[@ellieB5806]

Absolutely amazing

[@timrose1693]

What fun you make it !!!!!!

[@followingthedopamine336]

Lol, thank you!!! ♥️

[@TheHumbleHobbiest]

I love the narration are you from New England by any chance 😂

[@followingthedopamine336]

Lol!! No, I'm a Montana girl! But I did Google a "New England" accent just cuz I was curious, lol. 🤣 Fricken cool!! I wish I sounded like that!! It's probably my lack of filter....

[@pierrelampron8643]

Beautiful! But it look like you forgot the chimney.

[@followingthedopamine336]

Lol, I did actually. But then there were too many things popping out of the roof, I just decided to go on without it.

[@bitcreativeilse]

Lovely video and damn I love the way you narrate your own video. Made me smile. So.. can I now shrink myself please so I can move in? Maybe?

[@followingthedopamine336]

Lol! Absolutely, but take me with you!

[@bitcreativeilse]

Let me get the shrink machine out of storage :p I'll arrive per goose. See you in a bit!

[@peanutkinder4609]

I’m very impressed! Check out the views you’re getting on your videos! We should be homies. I’ve been watching this kind of content for as long as KZbin has been around and you really stand out from the rest. Awesome creations and personality. I’d love to see what you think about some of my cornball videos. Homies? Lemme know.

[@followingthedopamine336]

Thank you!!!! Ya, Im a little shocked by how many views and subs I've gotten from this video..... I'm just so thankful ♥️ Definitely homies!!! Lol. Cornball videos??
