    We all voted “a little bit of everything” because it’s closest to “whatever you enjoy making.” As long as you are having fun and excited about your projects we will happily watch them. (That’s why I voted that way at least, I suppose I shouldn’t speak on behalf of everyone else) Thanks for yet another great video!!

    Scratchbuilding is of course a major skill and I know it's taken years of honing, but it still looks like absolutely-for-real magic to me when you pick something up I've been seeing every day of my life....and suddenly it's a door!! Suddenly it's cool guns and barbed wire and monster eyes! I'm slowing working my way through your videos - I started all the way back there at Episode 1 - and I love your sense of humour and your unmatched skill at making the coolest rusty things from junk and bits and bobs. (Also! I am making sandstone bricks today so this was especially helpful!)

    This is amazing. So much bricks! lol. But for future reference, it might mix it up a bit and make it a little more realistic but helicopter blades aren’t metal and would have heavily deteriorated the composite. Idk I’m thinking a different color maybe, some way to show some sort of delamination somehow…breakdown in the layers. (That said, the leading edge of them is typically made of a durable metal meant to resist abrasion and erosion)
    I’m sorry for being a helicopter mechanic. Great build though!

    So there is a nice system I've seen for painting corroded metal, start by mixing your metallic paint with a brown, then give it a heavy dry brush of the metallic paint followed by a dark wash, then paint of your paint colors from there with whatever chipping or sponging method you prefer and then finish up with all the extra weathering layers. While I have only seen this done with red brown iron, I would think it would work as well with a brass or copper paint mixed with an appropriate blue green.

    Bill I like that you are sanding some of those plastic bits before primer or paint. Paint has a very hard time sticking to certain types of plastic. Too many crafters just use modpodge like it's a super primer. And it isn't. Great build, as usual. Love the channel.

    I think "a little bit of everything" is what keeps a channel interesting. I caught myself skipping over videos of channels I once binged because it's "just the same thing in a different color". Also great build! I really enjoy the trash builds because they are examples of fairly cheap crafting (i.e. I live in central Europe and and I have no idea where to grab XPS or EVA foam but so many American builders use it almost exclusively) and you are a master of just eyeballing everything (textures, composition,etc.) which I also enjoy very much. I need the preplanning and the precision for my day job, so eyeballing my crafts feels very relaxing
    I would love a basing video as well :)
