That grid pattern idea is great for just getting on with it, which can be half the battle. Keeping the novelty and the challenge is worth thinking about, going to unearth my sketchbook and have a think
Reminds me of my big brother who would take my action figures and go " Hey this would make a good such and such" I would of course go along with it just out of curiosity but still be a bit miffed all the same at times. But was most of the time worth the sacrifice/journey.
Gardening, exercising and when I'm trying to get to sleep are when my ideas tend to come. Oh, and when I'm in the shower. Basically just any time that it's inconvenient to write things down.
I am envious of your Pound stores. The Dollar store where I live, where everything does cost only a dollar (at least they're being honest), sells items that aren't even worth a dollar. Fortunately there are other outlets for accumulating worthless junk that can be made into other less worthless junk. Why just this morning my trusty 20 year old toaster decided it would no longer hold down a slice of bread to make toast and do I despair about having to buy a new toaster (after all who fixes stuff anymore) - no. The first thing that comes to mind is - Parts! Not to mention taking stuff apart which is always a bonus. Your videos have done this to me.
The gridded page thing is a great tool for encouraging creativity and diversity: I used to teach graphic design, and when we were doing logo or poster design, I'd get the students to divide their page into four and to quickly sketch out four different ideas (as different as they could make them) before they decided on their final, worked-through design. Almost invariably, their first mini-design was NOT their final design, because the first mini was usually the "obvious" - and often less interesting - variant. Plus, of course, it hones your sketching/doodling skills and the small size stops you spending two hours going overboard on teeny weeny detailing. Nice one!
Yeah, I was wondering if there were any side effects to torching plastics in an enclosed attic crawlspace with no head room...🤔 Well, it seems to help you to be creative Bill, or at least very entertaining while you record your hallucinations of talking cotton swabs. Wow, the things you do for your audience, most impressive Bill!!
I’ve been going through some really difficult times lately, and have been frankly depressed beyond what I’ve been in a long while. Watching this has just kind of helped, if that makes sense. I’ve definitely been in a creative rut, but seeing your perspective on just doing the things is nice. So…yeah, thanks. Keep doing what you do, so long as you enjoy it that’s what we’re here for.
"Good design comes from constraints." Can't remember where I first heard this, but it seems to be true. I really appreciate the time you take showing us your process.
I don't do a lot of illustration, but I do keep a memo book that I write down my D&D ideas into. I'll often have a theme, and I just fill out a page, front and back, with all the ideas I can think of around it.
You could have a second channel called bill baking stuff, where you bake stuff. You can use chocolate chips as edible beads/rivets and some strawberry laces which of course come from edible spray bottles. Lots of potential to make something cool, let me know what you think?
And Bill Shaking Stuff - where he gets bottles of liquids and shakes them. And Bill Taking Stuff - where he steals things from Poundland. And Bill Breaking Stuff, where he.... Oh, hang on...
An absolute breath of fresh air to the TH-cam side of the hobby. Not quite like, "trees" and "cut grass" fresh, more like Fabreeze... With a hint of thrice borrowed library book. (Keep them coming Bill, the videos are second to none! Can't get enough of them and your humour!)
Don't have any negativity/unwanted advice/time wasting comments etc. to make; I love this video and it means a lot to me. Thanks for sharing your art/being a great creator ❤️
been watching bill for a month and a half and he gave me the inspiration to make my own robot that got fron a old toy airplane as the head and all and it looks good
That's a good one, Bill. So many ways to kick start creativity here. And the idea of putting limits on it is great -- like all of the prompts for creative writing I used to fill out for homework. I never really understood them as a student, but I get it now. If it's just the whole world full of ideas, it's too overwhelming. The brain shuts down. If I'm forced to work with a very limited range of options, it's like the brain says, "Ok, that's more reasonable. I can do something with this. Lots of things, actually." Well done showing us how this works with crafting as well.
I like to fumble through a box of parts to get ideas of what can be made. Or take a part from a box and draw its shape into something. Thank for these other inspiring methods.
Definitely going to try the grid exercise in my sketchbook. I have often used the random shape exercise, where you fill up a page or pages with random shapes and then go back and turn them into something, but I definitely like the grid idea, leaves the process more in the hands of the imagination, forcing.more raw creative thought. Really enjoyed this one! Thanks for sharing!
Look into auto drawing techniques. Artist block is a normal thing we artist just have to work through it. Usually when I get there I go back to the basics and do what I was doing when I started doing art. You got this Mr Bill
Yeah, the grid thing is PURE GENIUS! That's what I was looking for to help me not feel overwhelmed with the learning curve of this new awesome activity! Thanks for that! HEY, I do accounting too.
Thank you Bill for the informative and inspirational video. The sketchbook idea is great, it will be nice to just let the pen roam free as a calming distraction.
Lovely stuff as usual, although some of the pages of your sketchbook resemble the pictures that disturbed and possessed children draw with charcoal or black crayons whilst they're in sinister mental institutions, and then hide in a drawer, only to be found by the film's protagonist years later, and which give a clue to the nature of the demonic force that's trying to burst through into our reality. Just a thought.
I agree, taking stuff apart or messing around with materials is really useful for generating ideas. I like doing thumbnail sketches; if I'm really struggling, I like to choose something that acts as a creative 'challenge', like a brief word or a rule I have to abide by in making the piece (like only using certain colours or having to include a specific item in the build). Although it sounds contradictory, I find that limitations lead to more creative ideas, as it gives me some structure to work around, if that makes sense. With the brief words, I like to choose vague words that have plenty of room to branch off from them (so rather than saying a "landscape", prompts like "chaos" or "confined" have much more lenience to them? I don't really know how to explain it haha). Also, I love the transitions in your videos, they kind of remind me of the ones in Bottletop Bill (I used to love that show lol)

Congratulations on the new family member. So small 2 minute video idea (Bill liking Stuff) scroll throw the web or Instagram.... like , like , like. 😁🤣🤣
Great idea about the sketchbook Bill! Lately, I've been trying to scribble down my ideas on any paper that is handy as they happen, but its very hard to keep track of dozens of random bits of paper and backs of envelopes. Will have to pick up a note/sketchbook at the $$ store the next time I go on a restocking trip. Thanks for all the tips; about creativity as well as all the mini-projects you mentioned here. Your videos are so very informative, entertaining and much appreciated! Great stuff, thanks for sharing, stay safe and keep on keeping on!!
I have visual communications degree, imo to many limit there creativity, writers stare at blank pages when they should be on a spinning wheel making potery, creativity inertly pushes to other things at the worst times, put thoughts to work, get them out so others may come
Bill thank you so much. That grid in sketchbook technique has led to me now having maybe 6 new gaslands car ideas when I felt like i'd already done everything. (or half a dozen new ideas... why do people say half a dozen when 6 is so much easier?.. i dont know...idiots.)
You are so inspiering! 🤩 Love your builds, your style and you are entertaining. What I took from this video is the "waste not" mindset. Loved the ink making 👍
I also like to make things with recycled things, like plastic toy parts, broken printer parts, plastic shampoo bottles, bijou, plastic tubes, wooden sticks, plastic sticks etc. I have five or six boxes of stuff... I like going to the 1.99 (the name of money is "Real" here) store and "looking for things that look like things I want to create" is very stimulating. Virtual hugs from Brazil...
Thank you for giving us all a peek behind the curtain, Bill. I loved it, and plan to use some of your tips. i'm always down for more behind the scenes style videos, and great job on that turret!
I look at all my "junk" w/ new eyes now and I noticed that my toothpaste caps and deoderants have a lot of neat peices, but I've never seen any of those kinds of bits in your builds....
So im just got through all your videos and a video lr two i commented and you liked it and i gotta say its 4am on the west coast united stated. And it took me a bit to remember that that translates to a completely normal time in England.
really interesting to here you talk a bit more in depth, i only discovered your channel recently but I am already saving up spray bottles haha, thanks for the inspiration
After watching few videos and starting to collect junk (which I'm not sure my wife is happy about) I've started to use my scetchbook too. But not for getting ideas - I'm not that good at drawing and creative. But I use it to store ideas. If I come to some scheme or kinda - I try to draw it to use in future.
Oooo I like very much. Inspirational and motivating. Thank you. I do advise everyone not to listen to Bill at three quarter speed. I did last week. I think I've developed a tic.
Absolutely in love with the stuff you make, your vids are really relaxing to watch. I like to make lil junkbots too but I use real metal bits I find at the scrapyard, so they end up being rather heavy lol
Man you're funny Bill. You've got the same artistic eye as I! In the words of yoda.. look beyond the shapes and greeblies...primed together..they become one. And so on. I would say try airfix bits but they're going to be bit more than pound shop.
I don't know why, but I really must, "Subscribe... Go on... Do it." even though I am already subscribed. The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep. Your sketchbook looks absolutely wonderful. 5:31 Ranger Bot (left-hand page, second down, forth across) looks like a great character. I found this interesting and would like to see more of this sort of thing.

do it
I like to burn things too sometimes.
you know it...
Is bills child just living a minimalistic lifestyle without a choice
Reminds me of my big brother who would take my action figures and go " Hey this would make a good such and such" I would of course go along with it just out of curiosity but still be a bit miffed all the same at times. But was most of the time worth the sacrifice/journey.
Gardening, exercising and when I'm trying to get to sleep are when my ideas tend to come. Oh, and when I'm in the shower. Basically just any time that it's inconvenient to write things down.
I love your sketch book so much
Thanks.
There is no way everything in that store weighs the same.
So you could sell every page of that sketchbook yoo
Awesome stuff
My husband said that if Bill was ever done with that sketch book he would want it as a collector's piece.
look at that. using the anvil horn with plastic properly. you use it for shaping rounded parts. in this case, with plastic instead of metal.
I dunno...
@@BillMakingStuff well, you could also use it as a musical instrument...
All excellent tips 👌
I would ad some herb but that’s just me.
That's a great idea!
Destruction before construction!
Ooh i like the grid thing
I am envious of your Pound stores. The Dollar store where I live, where everything does cost only a dollar (at least they're being honest), sells items that aren't even worth a dollar. Fortunately there are other outlets for accumulating worthless junk that can be made into other less worthless junk. Why just this morning my trusty 20 year old toaster decided it would no longer hold down a slice of bread to make toast and do I despair about having to buy a new toaster (after all who fixes stuff anymore) - no. The first thing that comes to mind is - Parts! Not to mention taking stuff apart which is always a bonus. Your videos have done this to me.
I'm sorry
i remember you from the discord.. did you wash your hands
The gridded page thing is a great tool for encouraging creativity and diversity: I used to teach graphic design, and when we were doing logo or poster design, I'd get the students to divide their page into four and to quickly sketch out four different ideas (as different as they could make them) before they decided on their final, worked-through design. Almost invariably, their first mini-design was NOT their final design, because the first mini was usually the "obvious" - and often less interesting - variant.
Plus, of course, it hones your sketching/doodling skills and the small size stops you spending two hours going overboard on teeny weeny detailing.
Nice one!
thanks
I knew it wasn't an original idea... but its what makes sense to me.
@@BillMakingStuff Originality's overrated! ;-)
Genius sense of humour. This is the epitome of a TH-cam channel with quality, interesting, creative content that will become HUGE.
Thank you
Turns out there are no birds, Bill's just inhaled too many plastic fumes.
Still inspiring. Loved the sketchbook and the turret
Yeah, I was wondering if there were any side effects to torching plastics in an enclosed attic crawlspace with no head room...🤔
Well, it seems to help you to be creative Bill, or at least very entertaining while you record your hallucinations of talking cotton swabs. Wow, the things you do for your audience, most impressive Bill!!
Is there gonna be some kind of poundland saga?
Hey, very inspirational ! Thank you Bill !

Thank you for sharing your journal, and your grid idea.
I've never been early to a Bill Making Stuff video 😊

Don't have any negativity/unwanted advice/time wasting comments etc. to make; I love this video and it means a lot to me. Thanks for sharing your art/being a great creator ❤️
Very nice of you
limiting resources is a great way to get the brain flowing, it works very well for me. Thanks for making great videos for all of us to enjoy.
I got so excited to see that you took my idea to make some of your own inks! :D You're welcome!
Thanks for the idea!
Have you tried them yet? Would love to see it in a future video if they work out well!
I found this channel a week ago and your very good at making videos. Probably the best one
Wow, thanks!
been watching bill for a month and a half and he gave me the inspiration to make my own robot that got fron a old toy airplane as the head and all and it looks good

Thank you Bill for the informative and inspirational video.
The sketchbook idea is great, it will be nice to just let the pen roam free as a calming distraction.
a couple minutes into the video, I got the random and sudden urge to subscribe.... hmmm...
I subscribed
Of course I would like to see more videos like this!

Hey Bill! Love how your creative brain works! Superb tips!
I love the name tag. For me, it eliminates SO much confusion...
I'm talking about the one that says, "BILL".
...not the one that says, "CAT". That introduces more confusion.

(or half a dozen new ideas... why do people say half a dozen when 6 is so much easier?.. i dont know...idiots.)

Yeah, this'll help with getting inspired. Thanks, Bill!
I really like the grid idea. Someone has been inspiring me to draw robots... 🤔 so a grid is a perfect idea. Great episode, Bill, as always. Thanks!!
Great video Bill! Really enjoyed hearing about your creative process and the different "feel" this episode had.
I had a terrible start to the day. I appreciate this video so much.
