wow!!! I saw a brettonian table, making war against the invaders. Awesome work man!!
Right on!! Thank you !
I bow before the feet of the Master. In all seriousness, I am never disappointed with the quality of work. Great job!
Hey Jax, I really appreciate that.... rise Sir Jax Brinkmann.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT All hail Sir Jax! Knight of the realm!
Huzzah!
I’ve said before, even though I’ve never played any games like this, I still absolutely love watching the creative process, how so much thought goes into every aspect of every piece and meaning. You really show us what it’s all about.
Thank you so much…. I’m happy to hear that the videos can entertain those that don’t play as well :).
Superior craftsmanship, l like how a base is added to the solid column and matches the purchased items perfectly.
Great work, keep the shorts coming. TKY again.
Thank you Darrell... which purchased items are you referring to?
Is it odd when I say your castle now reminds me of those designs that old 8-bit rpg video games used to have? Because that is fire! I love the retro look!
That's my era... I'm sure it has something to do with the design :)
I feel like the corners could easily be turned into a corner Gate building with just a few modifications. Very cool
Definitely, thanks Matthew!
I am so jealous! That castle is perfect for Lion Rampant!
Thank you :).... You can build it !
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT I wish I could! I just don't have that type of talent like you! I have enough trouble painting a mini!
Really really awesome! I agree with Jax Brinkmann, you are the foambuilmaster for tabletop! both thumbs up, John!! ♥
I really appreciate that Liam !! Thank you :)
I am constantly impressed with your builds, I go from "how the heck" to "oh I might be able to do that"
Hey Myke, really glad to hear you're enjoying the content, and love to hear that the tutorials are helpful enough to give viewers a boost of confidence to create them themselves!
Every time you make a video, I get closer to taking the plunge and buying a proxon. Excellent work, as always!
haha... just go for it :) Thank you!
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Pretty sure its my christmas present to myself this year, if I can wait that long. Any recommendations on the first shifting lands accessory to get?
@@Threeredheadstudios Guider Pro for sure. Pillar jigs are nice.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT awesome, thanks. I'll stop bugging you now :)
@@Threeredheadstudios Anytime... you're not bugging me. You have questions ask away.
It could use a cave rat, but it's genius nonetheless. Actually, with a couple of individual ruined wall sections, you can create a long abandoned fortress or ancient outpost. I've been contemplating building a vampire's castle, integral with the mountain it's constructed on. This should be the perfect way to get it done! Well done!
Thank you Mike.... Yes, if you follow my destructible terrain video that would go well with this. So many options! I'd love to see that project once it's complete!
Modularity means so much to me! Living overseas means limited space and time. Being able to use and reuse materials means the difference between DMing with fantastic miniature materials or playing theater of the mind.
Right on Chris, I totally agree!
MACHICOLATIONS!!! (?)
You know, when medieval kingdoms fought, they truly were playing for "keeps". Sorry brother, tanks kinda dry this week, I got nothin'. Great work on the build as always.... 🤘🏼
An off day for you is better that a great day for most haha... Thanks :) !!
Love it. The magnetic door is a great idea to add modularity.
Yep totally… thank you Joseph.
Did you do the same with all the arches? That would add modularity to the wall sections as well.
@@josephgibbons9251 I contemplated it but didn’t. Very easy to add after the fact! Cool idea.
beautiful piece of art you've done again john.
Thank you so much Luc!
Love that this extends the Castle project!
Thank you .... I want to keep on adding...
I remember when I first started watching your videos. There were so many new things to learn then and even more now with all the new drafting cutting and sculpting techniques.
You make things easygoing and relaxed not demanding or confusing.
I love the feedback Jennifer….from a long time viewer it’s great to hear as the channel progresses. Thanks, and I’m glad to have you aboard!
What I really like about this, is how modular it is. You can build so many different things in so many different settings with this. This is truly brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Shane, I try to design my crafts so they they can get many uses out of them... You'll see these again on the channel :)
Its satisfying to see the cleanliness of your work hahaha! Some of us are just so chaotic... to say the least. Great videos always learning new techniques from you!
haha, thanks.. yeah my style I suppose. I'm glad you found the video entertaining and helpful!
Awesome. I love that you make everything modular
Thank you !! Time is valuable… modularity saves time for sure.
Great addition to the castle. Shocked you didn't put lanterns or torches on them.
Oh I wanted to haha... but I also wanted to make this a easy build for those just getting started. They would be a nice addition for sure!
So glad you are still at this. Amazing stuff, for sure.
Thank you... I'm not going anywhere :)
Another fantastic build! Absolutely love the modularity to get the most out of your terrain.
Same here!... Thanks Mike !!
Incredible, I just started building terrain. When the proxon is finally in stock here I will tackle this project. Great video very inspiring.
That's awesome Ozzy, and thank you. One recommendation on additions for the Proxxon... the Guider Pro from ShiftingLands and the foot pedal from Proxxon are a must for me.
I appreciate that you make these available for those of us that don’t have a proxxon on hand. Thank you so much!!!
You got it Rachael, thanks for the feedback :)
HOLY SCHNIKIES!!!!!! Great work John
Thank you Kevin!!
I look forward to every video that you put up and am never disappointed as to the level of quality craftsmanship you put into every piece. Amazing work!
Thank you very much! I really appreciate that and your support Robert.
I loved the details and simplistic nature of the build. Thank you for the plans!
Happy to hear it Daniel! You got it :)
Simply amazing. What a great work. My son also loves it.
Awesome! Thank you!
Anothr Epic build!!!! I love how you use techniques in other builds to create new and wonderous projects!!!
Right on Rico !! Thank you !!
NO LIE I LOVE YOUR CREATIONS BRO.
Thank you !!!
You really have a great way of showing how amazing results can come out of foam, paint, and pretty basic techniques. I remember in your haunted house video you hadn't quite developed your magnet placing technique, so it's cool as a fan of yours to see you constantly upgrading your own skill set, and in return all of your followers gain that as well. Can't wait for your next epic build.
Cool to see you notice those things :) I'm glad that all the techniques help out and improve as we all learn.
A Fabulous video that has such a great look for modularity! Those turned out amazing. One could make a couple of these and have great table ready for use. I like how you incorporate all the little details that make your builds stand out! I look forward to each video you publish as it helps me improve my own crafting skills. Thank you John for a great channel!
That really means a lot to me, thank you for sharing that! More fun videos on the way!
Wow. These turned out so well. I love it when a simple idea has so much use on the table. For the time invested on these you could make the Great Wall of China before you are able to complete another epic build. This also seems like a really good place to start if someone was thinking about making the castle.
Thank you Chad. Yeah it really is a great beginner craft and intro into the castle!
I agree with many here never disappointed with the quality of the build and explanation. Another great job.
Thank you so much Darin !!
Dude, you are a genius. I love how much bang for the buck this has. I 3d print a lot of terrain, in addition to crafting myself, and printing anything really big like this takes forever and uses so much PLA. This seems like the best way to get a big, impressive castle on the table that I've seen. Bravo.
Thank you :). Yeah there’s all kinds of playable options with these. I’m glad you liked the video.
This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing your secrets. I'm beginning to wrap my head around terrain building and I can already tell I'll be making frequent stops on your channel.
I'm glad you found this helpful, and thank you for your support :)
John, it looks absolutely amazing!! I really need to download the castle plans now!! Always so beautiful and full of details!!
Thank you Angel :) You can build it on Discord with us !
Another insanely awesome build! The fact that you also can included pretty much all your other bids into this one is not in,y shear genius but also extremely modular…..you can have sooo many different settings by arranging the various buildings that no two games would ever be the same! I raise my gobblet to you master!
Thank you Andy... I'll have that drink with you. Modularity saves time, money, and lets you move on to other crafts.
Your skills and craftsmanship know no bounds, John. The only way your builds could be more lifelike would be if they were actually made of stone. Absolutely incredible. And as always, the quality of your videos is second to none. I'm happy to be a member of your patreon page and glad to see so many others supporting you as well. You offer quality instruction and walk us through all the steps and that's definitely worth $upporting.
I'll see you around
Thank you so much Adam... I really appreciate that and your support along with all of the Patrons and those who check out my content here on TH-cam!
Love the modular wall, so many possibilities!
Right on Scott! Thank you.
Wow! What do I like best about this modular castle set? Well, of course all the different possible configurations make it invaluable, and a real space saver. Although, what takes it over the top is the flexibility of the aesthetic. I could see using this in D&D (Greyhawk or Feyrun) for human or dwarves, or even Castle Strahd in Ravenloft. It would be equally appropriate for the Daqan Lords of Runewars, and the Imperium of Man in Warhammer Fantasy or 40,000. I'm sure there are many other settings in which this castle set would fit as well. In my opinion, that's true modularity.
Thank you so much for sharing that Jacob, showing others it's modularity across other games as well... perfect.
Incredible as always.
Thank you J :)
Great work man!
And I like to hear that the cast will grow!
Time to start thinking about town walls to place all your houses and castle behind.
Cool idea…. And thanks!
Fantastic! Thanks John.
You got it... Thank you Sebastian :)
Beautiful work.
Thank you!
Now I can't wait to build my own!! Than you for making those gorgeous construction!
Thank you, and have fun !!
Man! So simple and yet so awesome!
Nice work, John... as usual!
Thank you :) !
As always, your craftsmanship is amazing!
Thank you so much Howard!
I like this Idea, I will be using in the future for some on my builds, good idea and job
Awesome, I love to hear that !
Great job love it and the details are incredible
Thank you Robert !!!
Absolutely superb!!!
Thank you!!
Beautiful castle
Thank you Robert !
Awesome build.
Thank you Murk !
The castle looks absolutely awesome I really like the towers as well as the walls. This give me an idea for warhammer and other figures. This gives me ideas for future projects as well. Really nice job man.
Thank you very much, and I'm happy to hear it has sparked inspiration for other builds !!
Amazing build!
Thank you very much !
As always, well done!
Thank you David!
This is absolutely incredible! You never disappoint with your work!!
I really appreciate that Geordie, thank you !!
Beautiful
Thank you!!
Excellent , excellent!!!
Thank you :) !
Looks cool!
Right on! Thanks.
Amazing as usual
Thank you very much GRIFFOS !
this video came at a pretty good time just the other day i was thinking about making some walls
Awesome... perfect timing indeed :)
That is fantastic!!!
Thank you very much !
Amazing work!!!
Thank you very much !
Lights, camera, magnets! Awesome video John! I love this castle extension! I like what the guy below (Adam) says, how you "have a great way of showing how amazing results can come out of foam, paint, and pretty basic techniques." But many of the other crafters do too. You go a couple steps further and add LED lights and magnets to your builds! That is really cool and what sets you apart from the rest of the pack! I'm just sorry that youtube will only let me give you one like! You get two thumbs up from me!
Thank you so much Frank, I love the feedback and I'll take both thumbs up :) !!
I miss the painting, but man this was cool. Foam wants to be stone.
You got it! Check out the paint scheme in my Castle build video.
Ce château modulaire est magnifique. Belle vidéo
Merci beaucoup... vos commentaires m'aident avec mon français :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT ok je vais donc continuer !!! Mais c’est pas bon pour mon anglais 😂
Amazing, just really cool. It would be good to have seen you moving the pieces around to see what the modularity is like. But fantastic all the same
Thank you Steve ! I'll "keep" that in mind for next time... sorry about the pun :)
YEESSS!!! I was waiting for something like this and a hag house!
Perfect! …. And that hags house is still on the list :)
An amazing piece as usual! It makes me want to build the castle even more now!
Awesome I’d love to see you tackle it!
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Maybe eventually...though I'm not sure where I would store it!
beautiful !
Thank you :)
Amazing stuff as usual John! You make it look so easy! :) Love it.
Hey Perry, thank you :)
FANTASTIC BUILD BUDDY!!!!!!!!!
Right on... thank you !!!
It looks great love the castle and walls also love the haunted house build I love watching your videos I’ve have watched them many times over now I just gotta try to build something
Thank you!! For sure, just go for it. As long as you learn something good or bad from a craft it was a positive thing!
Perfect job!!!!!
Thank you so much !
Outstanding! I feel like I haven't seen a video of yours in months!
Thank you Paul... I know you've hit that bell right... strange. Is it just a feeling or are they not popping up on you YT? I released a video a few weeks ago.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Yes! Totally. Let me rephrase that comment...I haven't watched one of your videos since the hazard tiles because of the normal (and not so normal) tumult of life and work and haven't had even the time to open a notification. But since I made the castle (what feels like two lifetimes ago) I stopped doing what I was doing (in this case writing a report to my board of directors) to open it up and I heard the theme music and I was like...I GOTTA get back into my workshop.
@@paulsavas2394 haha, I hear you Paul. Life :). Well I’m glad the video got you hooked again. Time to get crafting!
Great video! Love the overall esthetic!
Thank you Justin !!!
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT could use some the same techniques to make vines, much similar to the ones on your Mini dnd shrine/the tavern as well!. Could make a whole wall just covered in vines for options of scaling! :p
Brilliant! Looks like it all came together quickly and easily. It's a beautiful expansion to your castle keep, and it has a great atmosphere.
PS: I need to get some magnets.
Thank you Damien !! I want to keep adding to this as well... as for the magnets... well... you know my take on that ;)
Awesome!!! How's it looks amazing!
Thank you so much !
Mate this came out great! I don't have a proxxon, so I appreciate the alternatives for building and templates. At first it looks super intimidating, but you broke it down into something super attainable 🙏
You got it! I appreciate the feedback 👍
Great work, as always! Glad to see the new video from u!))
Thank you !! The content is going to keep on coming!
Son of a what???? Man. You always blow things way out. Phenomenal. We've emailed a few times. You ever have/make time to do projects for someone like me??
Thanks Jim :). Commission work could be in the future again…. Some items from the channel might even go up for sale :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT let's talk.
😱😱😱😱 i want time to do this , it ' s so cool !!! Great job really 👍
You should! Thank you!
Most excellent!
Right on Scotty, thank you !
Great job John ! :-)
Thank you Tine :)
Amazing as always. I would love to see you come up with a ballista or catapult build to add to that glorious castle.
Thank you James, those are some fun ideas!
Amazing
Thank you !
so good
Thank you !
Epic Bro! 🔥
Right on !!! Love seeing you on YT ! Anyone that reads this comment... check him out on Instagram and YT... You won't be disappointed !
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT always on YT, just following You guys and being passive 😂 thanks John! ;)
Awesome Castle build😂🎉
Thank you!
Nice!
Thanks!
Hmm... i'm inspired to use it to go and try build the Castle Ravenloft
Oh yeah for sure !!!! I'd love to see your rendition!
How about a drawbridge? Maybe a sewer/dungeon "entrance" tile that you can place anywhere around the castle/ grounds?
Some cool ideas Adam... I like the modular sound of that sewer entrance.
That's amazing. I'd love to build something like that, but I probably won't anytime soon. Still it's cool to watch and see what you are making! Awesome! Is that a wire cutter? Interesting.
Thank you Rosa ! Yes it's a hot wire cutter. A super useful tool... at least for me :)
You’re so talented. I’ve tried a couple of your “simple” builds and mine look like........ well not good.
As long as you learn something from them it's all good. These definitely are a good build to start out on. Thanks Phillip.
WOW!
Thank you :)
Never thought about using the pillar jig for that , so just went and ordered myself the large set . Since its cut in 2D , nothing says I cant cut and make them as narrow as I want to fit any size piece .
You got it Doc! Glad you liked the video.
Dope
Thanks 🤘
Now you are flexing. Just a little. Lol
AWESOME WORK!
Flexin’ the crafting skills right Max haha. Thanks :)
