@@MiniatureHobbyist Cool, I just made my first spruecrons, (I was really wanting to get some cheap necrons for just fun, and so that hunger manifested in me making some flayed ones) I did find that if I use ways of detailing I learned from when I use to whittle it made it far easier. 😅 anyway if there's anyway I can help please let me know and please have a wonderful day.
Wife- "What's that?" Me - "Ork bunker." Wife- "Why's there a tin can?" Me - "Because Orks." Wife- "What's with the little jewels?" Me - "Orks." Wife- "Why's he burning it?" Me - "Orks." Wife- "Wh..." Me - "Orks."
I agree, Scratch Bashing did wonderful terrain, but the bunker aspect got lost along the way. It looks more like a raised platform for a large gun emplacement. Now if his bunker was an entrance to say a mountain base or something, then it would work really well. But the point was to make a standalone bunker.
I genuinely have the utmost respect for people that can create like this. I don't even play tabletop games. I might like to someday, but not anytime soon due to financial situation, but you have inspired me to be more creative in the hobbies and interests I do currently pursue. You're awesome!
Honestly, as a beginner to making custom building and stuff from scratch, I can say it's VERY intimidating. You gotta know what you wanna accomplish. A week ago or so I brought out the sprue from a warhammer set I got for Christmas last year and a bunch of bits, popsicle sticks, paper, cardstock, cardboard, toothpicks, just junk taht otherwise would take been overlooked. I sat there for a good 20 minutes just staring before I had a perfect idea. A junk barricade. I used the Ghoul from the fallout board game (not Wasteland Warfare) for scale, and all in all it turned out pretty good. Basically just know what general idea you wanna do before getting materials, that way you can know what you, should need for the project.
I love this build it's so Orkey complete with the door on the outside but no door on the inside. It's hilarious it's funny and I love it I would definitely see orks building a room that they couldn't get into or get out of.
This is freakin' rad. I love Scratch Bashing's too, but as an Ork player, I've gotta give this one to ya. The creativity and experimentation here makes my inner Mek so very, very happy.
Arguably that is real wood plank flooring. 😂 Great build with lots of cool ideas. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm definitely going to steel some of this.
Looks great, although, I would defo would of chucked a wash over it. Just helps to tie everything together and give it a more unified look, in my opinion. 👍🏻
Well Mr Hobbiest, I thought that was fabulous! You both have very different styles and have your own minds eye of the universes you play in, and I love that, for me though, you won this challenge hands down Sir, Indeed 👍
Nice one, excellent build. EVA foam tips: On the walls instead of cutting the four sections, cut out one piece, then, cut a V groove vertically (where the join would be) into the back of the foam halfway through the thickness of the foam. Add contact adhesive, or super glue on something this small and then fold the two pieces together for a seamless 90'external edge. Cut a smaller V for less of a severe angle. Keep your blades sharp as the foam will dull the edge quickly and then drag through the foam tearing it instead of slicing through it easily. Wear a respirator as contact adhesive is bad for you and definitely wear one when setting fire to the foam. 👍🏻
Thank you, great tips as well. My blade is very dull lol but my new ones are all boxed up with the rest of my stuff, should be moving into my flat in the next week so can get all the good stuff out lol. Doubt I will use the contact adhesive again due to smell and time it takes to dry =)
i have to say, if ever I had the opportunity to play against your orks, I'd be in for a treat due to all the ork terrain. love what your doing, and cheers from Canada.
Awesome build I may have to try this but I think I’d go a step further and resin seal it add magnets to the roof because it’s a wicked design for a custom dice box.
I stumbled upon this first and then followed the link to Scratch Bashing. Overall they are both great builds and both were entertaining to watch. While you are the better designer, he has a better painter, IMHO. Either way, I'm now subscribed to both of you and will be following.
Great build! I love this. And great collab, scratchbashing is my favorite. Check out graphix medium weight chipboard that Wyloch made famous on youtube. A layer under the foam board will give you a lot of stability. You could also use it in place of the wood banister too. Great material.
dem ork loves spikey bits, give'em some! I think you really have this orky vibe right, this bunker is really cool and feels so right in his context plus, with your instructions it is quite simple to build some for other factions great job as usual ^^
Thank you so much, I do feel like I have the mind of an ork, when it comes to building something just bash it together and stick some tacky tape on it and job done =)
You need to back yourself with your painting mate, all your vids are quality! You also show how people can do it from home by using ordinary stuff and not really expensive hobby stuff. Love it!
You might think your painting isn't any good, it may not be perfect or sharp, difficult to tell on a video 🤷♂️ but its always been striking and effective and THATS important! You've inspired me to make my own
This is an epic bunker. I love it. 😁 Keep on being awesome. I'm new to the hobby and have just started painting my first miniatures, so I have a long way to go. But I hope to be able to make awesome stuff like this one day.
Contact adhesive is better suited for costume making, rather than little jobs like that. But it's one of those "use in a WELL ventilated area" product. With dioramas or terrain pieces, if bits fall off you can just glue them back together with super glue. With contact cement, it's for things you want to remain stuck together forever.
I like the greebles that you appear to have got off the linked Warhammer set. Not into Warhammer (except lore videos) but I may have to get a set for the greebles.
@@MiniatureHobbyist i started following you guys at roughly the same time and im so glad to see you guys been growing so much since, both of you showing in your own way this hobby is about CREATING and not hoarding or making glamour shots of subpar, rushed work just to make a weekly quota. Cheers and lets keep on building
I liked the way you measured and then drew a line on your straight edge to make it easy to match the measurement again. "Plastered by an Ork"? Don't you mean plastered by a grot mob?
I definitely recommend using Mega Construx sets for builds. Idk if they still make them but as a collector I can say that the turrets from the Halo killteam sets are REALLY good for scale. Construx weapons in general are good. I noticed you used a flame thrower from an old set here too, which is a prime example lol. All in all I just recommend going on their website and looking into weapons, parts, figures, and pretty much everything, cuz they're good quality. I'm just too sentimental to use my Construx parts on wargame terrain.
as a cosplayer who uses foam and contact adhesive I would definitely advise not to use contact adhesive or any other smelly glues indoors as you WILL make yourself sick, sometimes a bathroom extractor fan can be useful for removing the fumes but depending on how close you are to what you are working on it may not be strong enough. a respirator is a really good idea too when doing lots of contact adhesive gluing

@flagellaman400 1 that sounds awesome, give me a shout when its done =)
You should try making some spruecrons (necrons made from sprues)
@@johnwillsea6600 They are on my list of things to make =)

Man I'm sorry Scratch Bashing, but this build won this round! Great stuff!
Thank you, I knew we would have totally different looking bunkers =)

Really creative use of bits. the final bunker looks awesome
“I’m going to stick with it … “ Very good 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That's a mean looking Ork bunker! Cool paint job to, your walls really came out looking like old concrete! Bravo!
I love this build it's so Orkey complete with the door on the outside but no door on the inside. It's hilarious it's funny and I love it I would definitely see orks building a room that they couldn't get into or get out of.
I love the idea of an orc laying down that pine flooring. You won the challenge in my book!
You should be proud of this, it's awesome! Paint bravely friend!
Both you and Scratch Bashing did so good! I love both terrain bits.
I knew they would be so different which made this challenge really good =)
As much as I love Scratch Bashing I think I prefer yours as I love the interior and overall functionality!
Thank you, I really wanted it to accomodate figures inside and out =)
making wooden spikes from sprues is genius!
This is freakin' rad. I love Scratch Bashing's too, but as an Ork player, I've gotta give this one to ya. The creativity and experimentation here makes my inner Mek so very, very happy.
Thank you so much, I cant get enough of the green skins and have several more builds lined up for them =)
Playability!!.... this is def the winner for me.... 😃👍...great build.
Thank you, I think its the kid in me that wanted to make it playable =)
I don't know what to say other than I love it!
Thank you sooooo much =)
Bunker turned out absolutely amazing, man. Fun and cartoony with lots of great texture and shapes. 10/10
Thank you so much, really enjoyed this build =)
I can't believe you entombed actual lego inside some stairs! lol
Great Video! Love to see more kit bashing/scratch 40k builds!!
Thank you and more on the way =)
Dude. You're kind of a genius. Nice piece of work you have there.
Not bad!?! That's BLOODY AMAZING!!!
Haha cheers, I really enjoyed making this one =)
Something I was told when I struggled to learn what became my life profession. How do you become better at something? By doing it!
Another good one is: the man who says something can't be done shouldn't interrupt the man doing it.
Disgustingly Orky... Well done! It looks great!
Arguably that is real wood plank flooring. 😂
Great build with lots of cool ideas. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm definitely going to steel some of this.
Winner of this challenge, hands down.
Thank you so much =)
Looks great, although, I would defo would of chucked a wash over it. Just helps to tie everything together and give it a more unified look, in my opinion. 👍🏻
Your probably right, I thought I would try it differently this time, always good to try new things =)
Miniature Hobbyist Totally fair! It’s your build. I’m just here back seat painting. 😆
I like it. Painting looks cool.
"Caring less" = Zen Mastery
Yup it seems to work and takes all the pressure off 🙂
Great use of various cheap materials to create a cool bunker! Maybe that'll give SB some ideas..... instead of just more sparkle and foam! 😂
Thank you, I knew SB and my bunker would be so different which is what is cool about doing this challenge =)
Well Mr Hobbiest, I thought that was fabulous! You both have very different styles and have your own minds eye of the universes you play in, and I love that, for me though, you won this challenge hands down Sir, Indeed 👍
Eric's hobby workshops has a painting technique using red brown paint as base and then wheater up from there
I follow him too, he has some great builds =)
That Bob Ross quote tho, great job!
Brilliant! Really cool!
Great build. I use XPS foam for dioramas. It's dense and you can sculpt details.
Thank you, I will be using the foam lots now as it is nice to work with and can be brought in lots of thickness's =)
the bunker needs nice curtains. make it the orks' home!

EVA foam emits toxic fumes when heated. Unless you're wearing a respirator in a well ventilated room I wouldn't recommend lighting it on fire.
i have to say, if ever I had the opportunity to play against your orks, I'd be in for a treat due to all the ork terrain. love what your doing, and cheers from Canada.
loads of fun

creative genius
Feels like a Christmas Ork camp :)
love this!
Thank you =)
Lovely stuff!
Thank you so much =)
The light grey sand bags are definitely from Mega Construx, probably in their Call of Duty line.
Great build, I found a few very useful tips I'll have to give a try next time I'm building scenery.
cheers John, it was fun to make and to try new things =)

I looove the background music :D Also: great build, great video! Discovered this via ScratchBashing, subscribed on the spot :)
Mate, I really like what you did here, would be good to see some more builds to complement or even expand on this. Great job 👍

Scratch bashing did well, but this takes the cake ;) awesome job mate! Makes me want to collect orks! So fun :p
Thank you so much, orks are cool =)
Those be mega blocks cod sandbags. I recognize them because I used to collect them
Missed an opportunity of putting a door on the interior of the bunker that said "Little Ork's Room" since sometimes the toilet is called "The Can"
The bin at 14:13 has more mega construx/ mega bloks than Lego
Edit: the addition of the flame marine backpack and tube looks amazing on the tin!
Very nice. Though, you forgot an inside door!
looks awesome
Thank you so much =)
Amazing work my friend :) Now I gotta try a scratch build terrain piece lol. Keep up the great work
This is an epic bunker. I love it. 😁
Keep on being awesome.
I'm new to the hobby and have just started painting my first miniatures, so I have a long way to go. But I hope to be able to make awesome stuff like this one day.
The can bunker reminds me of Baked Bean Fart from the old yogscast moonquest series
Haha =)
That looks amazing mate.
Build reminds me more ork cottage than bunker))
Good build tho, and nice video)))
Awesome 👍
Thank you =)
Really great stuff well done mate

Yup I normally dread that part but this time I actually enjoyed it =)

Not into Warhammer (except lore videos) but I may have to get a set for the greebles.
7:25 when a little bug friend comes to visit

"Plastered by an Ork"? Don't you mean plastered by a grot mob?
Haha yup I need a new ruler as the markings have all rubbed off lol =)
why am I just getting notified now 😂
for those who bought the silicone he used in this video you can simplify the ratio to 20:1 in order to make the math easier
The sandbags are from the Mega Construx sets, you can find them primarily from their Call of Duty line.
That sounds about right =)
loved it! but now lets go imperial ...
Reminds me of an orky diner
Haha, maybe I will make one of those next =P

I really don't think Orks take the time to paint things perfectly. So the less you care, the more Orkish it becomes!
Put some toothpics in the foam to have it stabile
cool
Really cool man, love ya vids
my viewer punkypirate shared this with me and you are very cool and all my viewers think you are cool
yeah u won that
Protip: If you had painted the bunker red, it would have gained 1 inch to movement!
I love your videos
Thank you for watching =)
You win.
Cool! But you forgot Ork Decorating Rule #1 : "Kill 'em all! We need more red paint!"
Yup no red paint and I forgot to do some chequered painting on it too =P
