You know, more than anything else about this channel, I appreciate that you trust your audience. You don't follow a lot standard retention practices and it's so refreshing. You let the story play out at an appropriate pace. It's one of the major selling points about your channel for me.

thanks Geordie

Dear Bill, I recently went to the local equivalent of the pound shop, and was very excited to come home with those half-beads you use so often. Also, there are lots of other youtubers out there making stuff with 3-d printers. Personally, I find the way you craft super interesting, a lot more accessible to someone like me who doesn't have one and probably won't ever learn 3-d modeling, and who generally likes to upcycle "junk". For selfish reasons, I hope you will continue to do your mad scientist style attic-grunge-crafting. Happy making!

"Total Recall" (the REAL one...not that abomination of a remake). Nice. Bill's a man of taste and refinement.

Bill, your point about watching someone 3D print something is the exact reason why I'm not as interested in so many other popular crafting channels! I like watching crafting videos for kitbashing and greebling and making stuff out of garbage, it's what appeals to me about the hobby. I like the creativity of looking at an old deodorant bottle and making it into a cool spaceship. It feels accessible, tactile, and inspiring in a way that 3D modeling and printing it in an expensive piece of machinery doesn't.

Total Recall is such a great movie.

You could make the suits a part of the scarecrows' culture, like a rite of passage or some sort of ceremony where they earn their suit.

Thanks mate

I don't know what Game war shop or warm harmer is. But I like your floppy hair and your voice that sends me to sleep. Thank you Bill, keep filming yourself making stuff I don't understand,. You calm me in a world I grow less to comprehend by the day. xx

Thank you for not doing 3d printing excessively on this channel. Love it

Something I've seen mini youtubers recommend with excess green stuff is to use a tube roller to make loads of tubes. You can never have enough tubes!

I'd definitely recommend cutting away a small amount of the green stuff where the two parts are touching in the strip. It's usually already reacted to some extent and can easily lead to lumps in your projects! Better is if you get it in two parts rather then a combined strip, then no worries about it having some of it pre-cured for your inconvenience.

Offering to let us send you anything seems like the precursor to a "weird stuff I've been sent" episode. Good ol' Bill. Always planning ahead. But seriously, I don't care how nice of a note you get with, don't keep any fingers someone sends you. Never know where they stuck them before putting them in the box.

Aaah this is so cool! Your worldbuilding ideas are always so inspiring for my own :D Always kinda liked the idea of organic "mech" suits or armor suits, and this iteration, with the operator having to sacrifice parts of their own body cause they were not made for humans is genious! Also, when I saw the mini on instagram, I thought the hands/claws were actually made out of other minis' arms or legs!

She's hideous and beautiful. Not only does the junk building make for a better video as you said, but you also get a totally original finished object

That guy looks great, Bill! I concur that watching 3d printing wouldn't be good entertainment. Love your style!

I'm new to sculpting little creatures and found this so informative. Thank you for sharing. 😊

YOU are the 3d printer. Best kind! I think a 3d printer on this channel would subtract from the charm. Thanks for being you, in all your mysterious forms!

This is wonderful stuff, Bill. You inspire me. I just wish that I was as good as you at painting.

Maybe you could cut lengths of printer filament to about the length of a toothpick and use those ... ?

This was a halmark BMS episode! All the best features plus new intro plus watercolors PLUS pre1990s technology. Blessings from our magnanimous creator.

I don't think I've watched a single one of your videos that hasn't at the very least made me snort hard enough to hurt. Your humour and delivery are always on point.

I had a TV like that when I finally got my own room growing up.

I like the way you planned the miniature using the body and then putting the cocktail sticks around it on a piece of paper to see what it looks like. Also liked the method for making the hands/ claws. Regards Lexi.

Turns out that Bill doesn’t just make stuff, he also sketches stuff really well.

These scarecrow are taking the characteristics of crabs/hermits...so do they go around looking for spare parts like how hermits go around and changing their shells. Also the exosuits are grown not built.

I personally think this is your best figure to date.... this thing is awesome.

It's cool seeing the stuff from your workshop show up in your videos 🙂

The coloring part is always most impressed!!! The way you combine colors together is briliant!!! Such a great work! Thanks for being a huge imspiration for me!

Getting some "Shakara: the Destroyer" vibes off the crab suit, I like it! Great build!

Looking forward to you drawing Cat like those French girls! The build in fine, too.

Great video, again, as usual! Thanks for not participating in this weird trend and putting your face with an absolutely not exaggerated look in the thumbnail, these are creepy af anyways. Also thanks for crafting the miniture, it is indeed a lot more entertaining to me at least.

Gorgeous mini. Watching the zenithal prime bring everything together is just *chef's kiss* magic.

The book itself is really cool like his own lore book without words.

Hey Bill, while we are on the texture roll and crab texture bit, you could make a texture roll using those ball point tools (commonly used for nail polish art). Simply make a bunch of dents using various sizes on a blob of greenstuff, and the result is pretty much what you had on paper, boils and barnacles. Very easy and usefull! Love those watercolors, bye!

Thank you for respecting us. I just paused the video to leave this comment. I'm so glad to see that there are some wargaming youtubers left for people who do not play games workshop games. Also thank you for accepting the loss in youtube exposure in favour of your integrity. This is probably the first time in history that a german has nothing but respect for an englishmen but here we are. Keep having fun and your tragicly funny screen persona.

If you mix up too much Greenstuff, you can roll it into a ball and stick it in the freezer. It'll make it so can thaw and use the GS the next day. The longest I've had it be workable is three days after.

As ever, pure brilliance

Brilliant episode, as usual. Your so right about the 3D printers. I'm sick of youtubers with their laser cutters and 3d printers. Us poor mortals can't afford them. I really appreciate you keeping it real. Thanks Bill.

Another great creation, love the way the hands ended up

That notebook. So hard to stop playback to read it. Really wonderful stuff.

i am here for regular Bill. and also lore. and cat. keep it up!

6:45 "Lose the arm." "Well done Tories." It is sad because it is true. What a freaky mini, no wonder no-one wants to share a pint with him; though I guess he is popular with anyone trying to get the top off a pickle jar.

his butt cheek orbs are my favorite bit!

I freaking dig it man, this thing is gnarly. Nice Job Bill

That"s definitely the the noise you make.👍

Regular Bill is my favorite flavour! haha

It’s like Adam Smasher if he was designed by HR Giger. Love it

I think milliput and greenstuff mixed together is the best way to use both although milliput by itself is perfect for filling gaps.

I like it. Your world is coming together.

Aw heck yeah, I'm always down for any kind of biotech. The grungier the better. Also on the subject of the 3D printer, I don't mind when channels use it but I prefer seeing what people can do without one. I'm not likely to have one anytime soon (or ever, really) so as cool as it is, it's not really something I can apply to my own stuff.

i got sad and stopped painting minis...then when i came back to the hobby my paints had dried up making me more sad. still a fun hobby and i like that most are just grey.

I have found that if I take a moment to think about how much greenstuff I will actually use before I get started, and then mix up half that amount, I only have a little excess left over when I am done.

The mini looks class man,the lore really brings it to another level though.

Personally I prefer kitbashing and scratch building more than 3D printing too. It seems more creative and relaxing

I love you bill! Please more of these! Id watch a thousand of your bead bots!

You should also make prints of your art work. Nice work

As we all know, Bill's favorite material to work with is hot glue. I think that we are about due for a monster made entirely of hot glue

The final miniature looks even creepier, because of how small his torso seems to be. It's like he not only amputate his legs, but a part of pelvis too. Some nice crisp bodyhorror stuff 🤌

Great episode, thatk you for your conent)

I would buy prints of those art works any time. Or a full art book!

That model is freaking scary. Well done 👍 👏

It would be cool to see different versions of the suit, maybe with drill hands or wings or something.

I know you were going for crab like but it also has a cool volcanic rock look to it as well like a pumice stone. Could be rock aliens like the Horta from Star Trek TOS Awesome build as always

I love how it all fits together. (Oh, and I don’t think I could craft something so small. Hell, I watch your videos on a giant tv.)

Good ol' Regular Bill

I still watch vhs taps because there is something special about it for me

Bill, you've opened Pandora's Bitz Box. You have to make a CAT print now. I know i'd get it for sure, and im sure most of us would actually. That rustbot with the sword and board is dope too, kind of really want it now. As far as the suit goes, you should check out a game called "The Surge", you might dig the design as the armor sets looked like a dude rolled in the smash pit of a junkyard while covered in superglue.

That thing is cool as he'll lookin!

Hands down, my favourite so far!

Love the sketch book with all your builds. Too cool.

I love all your creations! I’ve been trash bashing for a long time but took a break for a while cause I had a hard time finding inspiration. You make me want to get back in to it again and you give me so much inspiration! Thank you

Loveeeeed it! So happy you did a scarecrow!! Great job!

You always nail the poses and the silhouettes, love it!

Total recall playing on a 9in cool points for sure

Awesome kitbash/sculpt !!! Clapping hands !!! 👏👏👏

I like the idea that this particular "Scarecrow" was found half dead, missing most of his limbs. The warlord who found him pressganged the poor guy into service. Less "get in this suit or I'll kill you", and more "it's either get in the suit, or I'll leave you on the streets". Wasn't much of a decision, really. But, as with the zombie torso that was used to make this mini, the guy still had one arm. So, to get his exo-suit, he had to have his last functional limb amputated. The warlord is gone now, killed in one of the junkland wars. Now the Scarecrow, like many of his surviving compatriots, are left to fend for themselves.

Sounds like the plot of the original six million dollar man tv show, actually.

The leftover greenstuff or other clay stuff I use I generally either put into a mould or wrap it around an old pen/pencil/stick to make a texture roller, I definitely feel less guilty about wasting it that way. Definitely look into silicone moulds made for cakes and stuff they're definitely the more useful ones.

I love your work Cat! I mean Bill! (yea him too). Honestly as great as 3d printing is, You still are limited to what stl files people have made, and the printer resin is hard to work with if you want to chop it up for conversions. I don't think its better or worse just another tool in the hobby toolbox.

10:15 I would totally buy a set of T-Shirts with these on them 😉

Great video and conversion! I think cat looks much sweeter these days... or maybe it's a cunning disguise...

This piece is so awesome! By far one of my favorite builds and bits of lore you've made! 🔥🧡🔥

Great build! Definitely subbed. I started sculpting mini's about 2 months ago and was under the impression that everyone in the crafts just used green stuff to make them. I really love working with it though, the minis can take heavy abuse when it's fully cured and it doesn't break easily since it's very elastic. I have made some very thin cloaks on some of my miniatures that hold their shape very well after curing at the proper angle. You can use a piece of polymer clay to stick the mini on nearly any surface and let gravity do the work for some good results.

The sketch actually made uncomfortable, that's how scary and disgusting (but still cool) it looked to me but the colorsheme of the built makes it a lot less frightening (but still cool ofc). And listening to the lore you come up with here and there is rlly fun, to me especially because I feel like you make everything still vague enough that you have to create some pictures in your head for yourself, while you naturally come up with details. Idk, I felt like saying that because the main focus of these videos isn't the storyline or lore, yet it does become a big part that is just fun. So much so, that I enjoy your videos so much despite having a completely different style/esthetic, that leans more into cute, sparkly stuff. Of courese your setup, great style of editing, your skills, your humor, your creativity and your pleasant narration are huuuuge parts of why this channel is so enjoyable. I recommend this channel a lot because even if you aren't interested in this sort of stuff, you can't argue that the videos are well made, they just are

Can't wait to see Bill Makes Gunpla.

Basically an organic zombie exo-skeleton then Bill ..... well he'd half to be a zombie type scarecrow who hacks his own arms and legs off.... or maybe he gets his mates to do it after a drunken nights brawl.... after they find the suit that is ?

Love your videos Bill. I hope we see all of your Tapu collection together one day. Maybe episode 100? 😉

QUIET BILL!!! Quade’s about to start the reactor.

Always good to see what you make. I've tried to make some of the things in your videos but they were so bad I had to put them down, mercy kills you know. I'll keep trying. Thank you for the inspiration and the humour. Also KUDOS on not sticking gw names in the title. Down with GW, long live King Bill

Good luck in the auction. Unfortunately they've gone put of my price range, but they're absolutely stunning!

Great build! That face reminds me of the puppet from the movie "Possum"

Awesome model my friend. Hope you are doing well lately

I love your canon builds and listening to the stories❤️

Found a new monster for my old west campaign.

Very cool exp suit. You are absolutely right about the 3d printer. They make cool stuff but are boring to watch, and most of us don't have one anyways.

Really cool build! And had snippets of Total Recall as a bonus!

It would be amazing with a world/lore/exploring book for your little universe

crazy that im watching this for the 1st time today, and happened to of just watched total recall for the first time last night
