    You know, more than anything else about this channel, I appreciate that you trust your audience. You don't follow a lot standard retention practices and it's so refreshing. You let the story play out at an appropriate pace. It's one of the major selling points about your channel for me.

    Dear Bill,
    I recently went to the local equivalent of the pound shop, and was very excited to come home with those half-beads you use so often.
    Also, there are lots of other youtubers out there making stuff with 3-d printers. Personally, I find the way you craft super interesting, a lot more accessible to someone like me who doesn't have one and probably won't ever learn 3-d modeling, and who generally likes to upcycle "junk".
    For selfish reasons, I hope you will continue to do your mad scientist style attic-grunge-crafting.
    Happy making!

    Bill, your point about watching someone 3D print something is the exact reason why I'm not as interested in so many other popular crafting channels! I like watching crafting videos for kitbashing and greebling and making stuff out of garbage, it's what appeals to me about the hobby. I like the creativity of looking at an old deodorant bottle and making it into a cool spaceship. It feels accessible, tactile, and inspiring in a way that 3D modeling and printing it in an expensive piece of machinery doesn't.

  • @YanniCooper
    @YanniCooper 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I'd definitely recommend cutting away a small amount of the green stuff where the two parts are touching in the strip. It's usually already reacted to some extent and can easily lead to lumps in your projects! Better is if you get it in two parts rather then a combined strip, then no worries about it having some of it pre-cured for your inconvenience.

    Your worldbuilding ideas are always so inspiring for my own :D Always kinda liked the idea of organic "mech" suits or armor suits, and this iteration, with the operator having to sacrifice parts of their own body cause they were not made for humans is genious!
    Also, when I saw the mini on instagram, I thought the hands/claws were actually made out of other minis' arms or legs!

    Bill, you've opened Pandora's Bitz Box. You have to make a CAT print now. I know i'd get it for sure, and im sure most of us would actually. That rustbot with the sword and board is dope too, kind of really want it now. As far as the suit goes, you should check out a game called "The Surge", you might dig the design as the armor sets looked like a dude rolled in the smash pit of a junkyard while covered in superglue.

    Hey Bill, while we are on the texture roll and crab texture bit, you could make a texture roll using those ball point tools (commonly used for nail polish art). Simply make a bunch of dents using various sizes on a blob of greenstuff, and the result is pretty much what you had on paper, boils and barnacles. Very easy and usefull! Love those watercolors, bye!

I don't think its better or worse just another tool in the hobby toolbox.
