"Grim Strider" concept to kitbash | Beyond the Blight collaboration with
Ойын-сауық
Join me as I travel westward to D’vini, where we’ll build a “grim strider,” an expedition-turned-extermination mech, using old toys, wire, clay, and the occasional 3D-printed piece. Finally, we’ll learn a bit more about the blight from the story at the end. Merch: www.gameyybuilds.com

Also, ignore the "Patreon" label on the end screen. I didn't realize KZread doesn't allow multiple external links at the end of a video, so I can only include my shop link. And as for the accent... sorry, I'm no pro voice actor!

i have a great idea, here me out Blight farmers, a region so densely covered in the blight that the peoples have evolved to consume the blight without harm, using giant harvesters to collect and use the blight as food, (and maybe power.?.?). this territory could be on the lower left islands. you dont have to take it, but still, this universe you are creating is amazing, and cool
Let me get this straight, you build these incredible objects from junk and then expertly paint them, you film the process in interesting ways, you edit the footage adding such very satisfying voice over and a complex soundtrack, AND write a deeply involved short story to expand the life of the scene you've built? You have developed an amazing set of talents, skills and craftsmanship. I'm blown away!!!

@@gameyybuilds Have you tried fusion360? When I made something from a drawing, I just inserted the drawing 'canvas' the in sketch workspace, I drawed around (or you can use inkscape and the insert it to fusion) and then did a extrude and used fillett/chamfer at the edges. I am not that good in 3D design but can make nearly anything in fusion and much faster then in blender when it comes to these mechanical parts. Oh and you can learn fusion360 on a basic level in days, not like blender.

I literally can’t express how hyped I was to come across your channel. I kit bash my own stuff in my own world as well. I was greatly inspired by machinen Krieger. Your stuff is soooo good. Very very inspiring. I relate to your “form follows function” way of building.
In Blender while working on objects not aligned to the global XYZ axes it's helpful to switch to the local transformation orientation by clicking the dropdown in the centre-top of the viewing window (Defaults to global). This way you'll easily be able to extrude perfect right angle to your object no matter its orientation. Great video as always, take care mate.

@@gameyybuilds it bears saying that an objects orientation will only be affected while it is moved in object mode and not in edit mode, but a quicker method is to "Extrude Along Normals" (Alt-E) for simple right angles.

Damn... What a story. Have I mentioned that short stories that leave more unanswered than what they tell are the best for these kind of content? Just by looking at your build our minds already start telling us story, and then you come and give direction to our imaginations with your narration and an already awesome piece becomes a new type of art. Great build. Awesome story. Fucking unanswered question... Love it.

Fun build. I like the pipettes and the globe under the belly when they were clear. I wished you taped them off before painting. That large fungal blight had nice translucent pinkish rings with that sculpting putty. It looked cool too. Sometimes not only different colors, but different opaque and transparent sections add variety. But overall good job on the project!
Each of these stories you tell with each sculpture, they remind me of “Tales from the Loop”, a ttrpg that got its own live-action series.
