Trash Bashing, Recycling, and the art of The Trash Van

Zip ties make good straps with two options for texture

[@jello__0113]

Wow love the rocket launcher using the three pin plug cover, think I will be using that! Time to take a trip to the recycling bin...

[@victore580]

Couldn't have turned out better with a model kit, that's awesome!

[@jhminiatures7867]

Cheers Victor

[@RocketPunchHero1]

You have a lot of interesting techniques. I feel more at ease now that I know many of you scratch build with recycled materials.

[@nathanwood5977]

Your box of plastic things at the end reminds me of mine. For anybody watching, next time you are out and about in an urban area, (Industrial estate/city..even suburban areas) have a look at the ground. I have found so many interesting plastic bits and bobs, ideal for props, gasland conversions etc. Plus you are keeping the environment clean....winning! ;-)

[@jhminiatures7867]

You know it brother 😉

[@gregoris2474]

Hellooo JH! Ahhhhh yes, the long foretold return has happened and all the Black Thumbs rejoice! This is a great example of how imagination is more important than a 3D printer to get started in this hobby. Stay safe and 'Rona free! Until the Seven Sisters are the queens of guzzleline again, I'll stay Wasted!

[@jhminiatures7867]

Witnessed brother! 😉 There is a fine balance to the art of mad max toy cars, and one day I'm sure I'll succumb and get a 3D printer. However, that is not this day! 😁

[@ScratchBashing]

This is my kind of build! Nice one

[@jhminiatures7867]

You know it man 😉 gotta see you make something at this scale my friend 😁

11:20 they make special pointy cotton swabs for make-up / manicures. They costs 4x more but the plastic tubes and rocket-warhead tips make it a bargain!

[@BrushQuill]

Im always chastised for pinching the recylcing. Apparently "not everything is scenery" lol Awesome build bud.

[@TheAlmightyfoon]

before Nuln Oil it was badab black. I had a pot of it somewhere but it got lost in a move.

[@jhminiatures7867]

I knew I wasn't crazy 😂

[@rustedbeetle]

Badab Black was one of the old Citadel Washes line, along with Baal Red, Devlan Mud, Leviathan Purple, Ogryn Flesh, Gryphonne Sepia, Thraka Green and Asurmen Blue.

[@adamskigarage64]

Great video and build, now I need to build one.

[@johnson9195]

Awesome build.

[@TheMordious]

Untied States of Van....you really made me laugh....

[@jacobharris3187]

my favorite piece is probably the window armor never thought of foil might have to try it on a build i’ve been planing possibly a buzzard type concept

[@colinhavard2568]

Genius. That turret is awesome.

[@crystalclearchaos5387]

Window blinds work well for plastic the big blade ones that hang infront of huge windows are the best my huge windows use giant blades that are made of literally the same material as pla plate / plasticard

[@alexfernandez9290]

Amazing work!!

[@nikond90ful1]

Thanks for the video. Keep safe and stay well.

[@jhminiatures7867]

You too my friend 😉

[@9786EVL]

Just found your channel today and it has really inspired me to get back into customising models so big thanks to you! Love this van. Looking through my old paints I've still got some Devlan Mud and Gryphonne Sepia washes 😀

[@jhminiatures7867]

Welcome to the wasteland man 😉 it's good to have you

[@Matt-md5yt]

Awesome job on this one my friend. How are you lately? Soon we might have to live in this kind of universe if crap still goes on.

[@jhminiatures7867]

I'm still at work full time at DHL 😉 so things this end are stable which is good. Thank you for asking Matt :-)

This must be my favourite of your videos so far. Very useful, fun and relaxing. Thanks dude you're awesome!

[@megs8654]

[@saltycodger7203]

That's epic! So much inspiration - I've definitely got a trashbasher inside desperate to get out.

[@jhminiatures7867]

That's the spirit! Just have a look around the house and see what you can turn into bits for your post Apoc toy cars 😁

[@cpl_dixon2051]

Nice stuff, James. Kinda reminds me of the Vermin Van from Twisted Metal PS3. I've recently been trying to use some recycled materials myself, for example, on an upcoming build, I've made rear window louvers out of a ribbed piece of plastic from an old TV remote. Also, if it's a "U.S. Van" Wouldn't it be left hand drive?

[@Matt-md5yt]

True on the car thing

[@jhminiatures7867]

Ah but then the driver would be in the wrong side 😛 no worries Dixon 😉 and man I need to get into Twisted Metal again. So many cool cars waiting to be built 😁

[@the98themperoroftheholybri33]

I'm a bit late but this was a great video. Also am i going nuts or do i keep hearing an ice cream van in the background or something?

[@chutney]

Could you possibly do a quick tutorial of how to do the paint runs of spray paint / graffiti on the models
