Love it when your Mrs figures out where that bit was liberated from 😂
Someone was sleeping on the sofa that night. XD
Really enjoy your videos - a combination of retro, nostalgia, crafting and excellent humor! Keep them up!
Glad you enjoy them ☺️
Looking forward Imperialis.
I asked my architect friend what those bits are called and he said 'Y'spill me f&*kin' beer agin I'll cut 'e bo*&^ks off wi'a fu&*in' broom y'gobs&*^e!' but a little later on he said it's a dripmould cornice, which is also what I usually order from the ice cream van. Cornice would do, it'd be a dripmould one because of the pokey-outiness which is meant to make the water fall off without splashing on the building. So it's a big stone house umbrella.
I also like the concept of gaming at that scale, although, when Cadetitis Durexicon came out, hur hur, the wee lads were 6mm, not 10mm, but, y'know, wevs. Same idea. Don't think I ever actually played like that but, two fings emerged when workin' out how to do it were... James Worksop didn't make enough miniatures at that scale to do the infamy properly (then) and there was something of a bee date on whether you ought to adjust the scales of weapons etc, the issue being, when you sit down and look at what they say is the effective range of, say, a bolter, you realise in 40k the combat range of a primary arm is more or less the same whether you give your troops a rifle or a battlespoon. - the range models for 40k actually looked better when you applied them to the itty bitty sproons.

Jeff - - Sir! Sir!
Voratus - - What is it Guardsman? Jeff, isn't it?
Jeff - - Yes, sir, Millicent Jeff, Guardsman third class, second absorbing group, under Major Ince, sir!
Voratus - - Very good. Carry on, Guardsman.
Jeff - - Well, sir, yes sir, thank you sir, but sir, I was sent, sir, to tell you about the fuel silo, sir.
Voratus - - Yes, we have secured both silos, ahead of schedule and with acceptable loss of life. We are very pleased, Guardsman, the Emperor is probably quite happy with you. That's nice, isn't it?
Jeff - - Um, I mean, yes, sir, obviously, sir, that's great news, sir.
Voratus - - Good chap. Top hole. Warms my cockles to see a firm ruddy face light up with the blessing of the Emperor.
Jeff - - Warms your what, sir?
Voratus - - Cockles.
Jeff - - Uh, yes sir, as you like it sir, not really my thingie, sir but whatever floats your boat I say, haven't we got enough to deal with as it is, sir?
Voratus - - It's an expression, Guardsman.
Jeff - - I don't judge, sir.
Voratus - - You had something to say?
Jeff - - Oh, yes, sir, absolutely, sir, it's the silos, sir.
Voratus - - We have forty eight heavy armour units lining up to fill their tanks with aetherium volus, essential for the advance to the Nova Slough settlement, I do hope you're not about to irk me.
Jeff - - Um, I don't know 'ow to irk, sir, probably above my pay grade.
Voratus - - Irk, to irritate, annoy, um, angrificate.
Jeff - - Righto, boss, thing is, the thing is, right, that we 'ad the dipsticks pop down just to make sure, like…
Voratus - - The Adeptus Mechanicus?
Jeff - - Right, sir, yes, sir, the dipstick mechanoes, well, after they stopped complainin', like, they said there was a problem with the petrol, like, sir.
Voratus - - The aetherium volus? It's tainted?
Jeff - - Absent, sir, mainly, they said the tanks are full, right, but, not with theoretical rodents, sir.
Voratus - - What do they contain?
Jeff - - Ah, well, the left one is soy-sauce, the right one is, I think they meant honey, sir.
Voratus - - …honey?
Jeff - - Well, they said it's from a bee, so, that's honey in my book, sir.
Voratus - - From a bee?
Jeff - - Yeah, sir.
Voratus - - Not wasabi?
Jeff - - It's a little black and yellow insect, sir, flies around all buzzy, sir.
Voratus - - You're telling me we just sacrificed two thousand fighting men to claim one hundred thousand GVU of oriental condiments?
Jeff - - Uh…
Voratus - - Open a communications tube to the Liverbirds vessel in orbit, I am quite certain there is one, and ask if they may have just happened to find themselves over burdened by aetherium volus and find out what their current rate is, and Jeff?
Jeff - - Sir?
Voratus - - If you ever refer to me as 'boss' again, I shall use your skin to muffle the infernal clanking of my Baneblade's tertiary exhaust manifold.
Great video, I personally would love to see a video about how you make 40k terrain or how you would tackle some classic terrain from old codex pictures. Your collection of terrain looks very well rounded so they could be filler pieces or smaller doo-dads. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Edit: I myself am trying to make some jungle trees and those old codex photos got me thinking.
Thanks buddy. I have plans to make such terrain.
Another excellent video for us to enjoy - what splendid constructions! 😊 Aww, RIP Wilko... My local stores have vanished ;-;
I know. Sad to see it go. It was a reliable place to get useful hobby supplies. Thanks for your kind words.
🤘
The Mrs is a good sport! Love using the stencils for the windows, I use the same technique so I don’t have to freehand frequently repeated glyphs
we don't even have soy bottles like those in the US, not that i've ever seen, those are neat!
Hope you can find an equivalent
great job on the tiny buildings, this looks like a lot of fun just free styling the bits and paintjob
In love the free styling. Thanks mate.
so relaxing to view hear you and that music to THANK YOU
Your videos are awesome man.
Sweet sweet nostalgia
Thanks so much my friend
Lovely video. Great terrain. I love your sense of humor.
Glad you liked it. My humour is quite specialised so I am glad I found a fan 😅 thank you
The structures look good! Thanks for sharing these ideas.
You're welcome
Strong work brother. Thanks for sharing!!
I like to play at 1/2 scale personally, small enough to drastically reduce the footprint, large enough to do fun things with paintjobs. Also works really well on my 3D printer.
Sounds cool
I know that this is a bit harsh, but that dig at Wilko at 8:22 made me chuckle
Absolutely brilliant.
Thank you
TINYHAMMER!
I love the creativity!!!!
😍
Love this video!
😍
I’m here once again for the inevitable ‘uses something he shouldn’t’ and getting caught by Mrs Miniscape.
It's a trope now 😂
Surely tinyhammer deserves tinyshorts! Have you ventured into shorts? They are comfortable and easy to wear.
Yey!
Nostalgia
Modge-podge! Surely you mean Crustard?!?!?!
A fancy sketch pad and some concept drawings?!? Hmmmmmm some one should use that idea in a youtube channel, it's clearly a winner!!!
Odd request but can we see those scrap tanks a bit more? They look awesome!
Ha we'll see. They were just made from scrap by my kids and me to keep them occupied.
Definitely looking forward to a potential follow-up to your venturing into epic, Matthew, but I have to say, if you compose a few more songs you'll have a unique opportunity in that you could make an album...but not just any album.....one that can be turned into a terrain piece in the time-honoured tradition of turning CDs into bases as well as contain your unique brand of songs (the actual content being downloaded as MP3s of course, and the CD being blank).
What should the album's title be? Not sure, but "metal trees...not cranes" sounds like a good candidate at least, food for thought maybe?
Keep up the quality work!
P.s. a requiem song for the fallen wilkos as a bonus track would be a good one to add.....and/or a Wilko bit of terrain that, in the style of demolition man, survived all the way up to 41st millennium the same way taco bell was the only restaurant that survived the franchise wars, i suppose you can change the name slightly to something like wheel-co or whatever if needed lol
If I make a song for each video from now on I will have an album in a few months. As you say, I will save the CDs for basing scenery.
@@Miniscape-wh40k lol good idea, and then you can go the extra mile and design some old-school cardstock terrain that doubles as the album cover.....fold here, glue there....and boom! Cardstock Ruins with base if you include the CD
@@alvarobarandiaran8848 love it
thank you for showing your bag of rubbish! i have on too, a big paperbox where every thing that seems usefull went in,
so glad, that im not the only one =)
greetings
Glad it was helpful!
@@Miniscape-wh40k of course mrs. fernlenker did not like it =)
now if i can tell that mr. miniscape said it is a must have it will be ok, may be SHE than looks to for good stuff? =) )
greetings to mrs. miniscape, she is great! gives the salt to your backing! =) )
@@fernlenker I cannot say for sure it is okay to keep a lot of trash. Please do not blame me when you speak to your girlfriend. And I am sure she is great too. Tell her I said hi 😊
@@Miniscape-wh40k hey even you are far far away, i struggle throgh the day, every time i got somthing done i need a miniscape video to keep up that am working for a working space for space orks and... YES hope to find some to play the rescue of the Imperial Pilot, i have the whole box... no blame, just geting some in our real world? to get our kidy days opend mind back... have no words to explain, third party tipps weight more than the prophet in the house *LOL* YES next weekend i gave her the BIG Mr. miniscape HI, AND that reciept for cake tanks =) )
and english lessons will get on, on your videos every friday evening ;)
so Thank You again
now i have to clean up a bit more and store and find more forgotton 40k things
found the Sisters =)
some real metal with jump packs? =) )
the did not find a way to you?
CU
I think that raiding a hobby shop for some textured plasticard and greeblies would really make these pop.
Like adding window edges and extra texture, Adds to the realism
Proper bits bag there
Was it just my screen settings or did that Land raider look a bit purple. Maybe emperor's children incoming?
It is blue and purple. I haven't decided what it will be yet
One word... Gee.
Good work, +/-100$ less for GW.
old-tiny-hammer? tiny-old-hammer?
Both good terms to use
How you will tinyhammer without windows?
Wooden Dental tongue depresses? Sounds like someone has an Oral fixation to me!😂 Also do you have a habit of stealing, sorry i meant collecting, sorry i meant borrowing Lancashire beach sand? I obtain my sand from the Solway Firth estuary, where i can also do some bird watching and photographing, any excuse to be in nature and by the coast really. It's so typical of a woman, to take issue with a toilet that doesn't flush!! They just don't understand scratch building and it's importance in cultural heritage.🤔 have you tried mixing powdered tile adhesive/grout into you sand? It gives a great variation to the detail & depth of rubble & earth, especially at this kind of scale. Very nice little builds and that song, simply inspiring!! Something the grimdark war torn future needs, also sung in Russian with traditional Russian music and it could be a great Communist propaganda piece, or equally sung in English, with a more 1950's brass band piece of music added & bang!! A Capitalist promotion piece; Sang with a plain monotone voice & synthesizers playing brother and you have an 80's new wave classic in the making. Truly a song for all and for all occasions brother Matthew! Where do you find the time?😁👍
Oh hello again brother. Yes I do have a habit of collecting sand from Lancashire beaches. It tends to happen unconsciously when the sand gathers in my shoes and other such places as I roll around on the beach. And then I bring it home with me. Would be a shame to waste it y'know. I have tried grout but not in this scenario. Will have a go with the next builds. Thanks. And funny you mention the Solway firth. I used to live but 8 miles from there. Take care buddy.
@@Miniscape-wh40k 8 miles from the Solway Firth, 🤔so you're a west coast country man! I know the place very well, i'm a high ground man myself and i love to hike the hills, dales, fells & mountains of Cumbria, Yorkshire, Durham and Northumberland just like my ancestors, long long before me. We are truly brothers Matthew.😁👍 Take care brother and i eagerly await your next video & song 😂👍Also seems you visit Lancashire, tell me brother Matthew, have you ever visited Pendle hill? or hiked to the top? Or been there alone & at night? It's a strange place with strange history.
@@thewanderingfool4435 I live in Lancashire technically. Never been to Pendle hill. I don't really do hill walking.
@@Miniscape-wh40k Well hill walking is not for everyone brother Matthew, but once in a while is ok. Also if you go to the top of a very high piece of ground and look down, it's like looking down at a model/gaming table terrain lol🤣 A beautiful view is always worth effort it takes to get there🤔not that i'm trying to persuade you to become a hiker brother🤣 Take care buddy and don't go sniffing paint thinner!! It's very naughty.😁👍
@@thewanderingfool4435 I would never sniff such things 😅
Where did you get the 10 mm stuff from, The chaos dudes
eBay auction. Sorry I know that's totally unhelpful. I think the guy I bought them off had a printer and scaled them to 10mm. Not having any 3d printing experience myself, I can't help you further.
I limit myself to one cardboard banker's box of scrap. Anymore and I won't use it.
