    Sawdust flock recipe: 59mL craft paint, 180g saw dust, 120ml water (rinse the paint pot out to get the last bit of the paint out of the tube). Mix it all up in a steel bowl, spread on parchment paper and put in an oven to dry at its lowest temp (usually a few hours or so). Then sift it through a wire mesh basket.

    I think the "cat= more views" thing makes total sense. Many people who hate cats also won't respect your boundaries. With this often comes a dislike of anything creative or disinterest in exploration (emotional or otherwise). Of the people I know, the nicest people (who also are animal lovers) love many things creative and are most drawn to channels where the person has a cat. It gives off "this person is safe and will respect your boundaries" vibes. And many YT creators who hate cats give off an aggressive vibe which deters people from their channel.

    Here is an idea, not sure if youd like it. Imagine a mechanic plant. Im talking about a plant, green, takes in CO² takes out O². Or a tree. The idea is that its either a creation from a civilization which has polluted its world so much it has made improvements to local flora to hasten the process of purifying the air. Or maybe its some super machine that is merging with anything it finds in the world, and now is taking over plants and trees. It could have pipes and exhaust pipes takin gasses in and letting fumes or other gasses out. Leaves could have patches of metal. The roots could be half normal roots half pipes getting water directly of a water source like a river-lake-pond.

I think it would have been nice if you kept a few of the repaired sections of panelling that shiny, metallic red. They are repaired sections using whatever metal they can find. 😉 Plus, after your wash, it would have toned down the shinyness, too. I love your builds, your channel, and your new cat, Spork. 🥰 I love kittimies. 🐱❤ Thank you for sharing this with us all. Be Excellent to each other and to yourself.

    You can DIY superglue activator/accelerator. 1/4 teaspoon baking soda dissolved into 150ml water. Put it in a spritz bottle and apply a light mist to one surface and glue to the other. CA glue needs moisture to set, and humidity in the air is usually where that comes from. A light mist of water can speed up the process especially when the air is dry. CA glue is also acid stabilized, so the baking soda neutralizes that acid and causes the glue to set more rapidly. You can substitute isopropyl alcohol for the water since that still has water in it, and you only need a tiny amount of moisture. The benefit is the IPA will dry/evaporate faster, but being a solvent it might discolor or damage some surfaces.

    To save yourself a lot of work (in the past) since you got 2 of the same wooden cheese board thing. You could drill a hole straight through one and then saw out the shapes and then epoxy/glue them together so the whole one forms the base of the "holes"

    Those plastic rectangles are probably wedges, used for example in leveling and fixing position of new window frames. What's great about them is that they come in a wast variety of thicknesses. Thicker ones look like prefabricated concrete walls :) I myself discovered them not so long ago and haven't seen them in any crafting video till now!

You definitely found the key to getting subscribers with your cat. I wish I could afford to subscribe to your patreon, but since I can't, I'll be sure to recommend your channel to anyone who likes crafting and miniature stuff. You and Cat are going to be keeping me company while I do chores and exercise, lol. I really appreciate how much time you take to describe what you did and why. So far, this and the base/flocking episode are my favorites. The christmas colored spaceship had me laughing out loud. Don't worry too much about including tips at the right time in the video. I appreciate every bit of advice you have to give. I really wish I could craft with a bunch of junk, but I don't have the space to keep all that, so I'm living vicariously through your amazing videos.

    tell you what else looks great when your doing the round hits in the armour, is once you have made your gouge (hit) put a small bit of acrylic filler/putty in the hole and use the end of a paint brush and press it in softly it will push the putty out round the sides of the hole and give that melted look rim around the hit mark's you have made makes it look very realistic

    Thanks for leaving your mistakes in the video, i feel like they're the best way to learn. On top of that, when watching creative people at work on youtube there's always a focus on making everything look like it's perfect at the first try, when in reality the whole creative process is filled with mistakes, doubts, backtracking etc, i think it's important to show the journey, not just the result.

    Those hole-punched rivets from plastic is a neat tip I'm gonna have to try sometime! I started accumulating other forms of rivets for my 40K Ork builds: the colored diamonds from the sticky diamond crafts, miniature specialty beads from the craft store jewelry section (Czech beads, if I recall correctly; they come in a thin plastic tube), the nipped ends of cross stitching mesh lengths, and tiny pearl pasta. I've also seen people make molds for rivets. I suppose there's more than one way to make a rivet. :P

    It would be so amazing if you started a 'space ship series' ...building famous space ships...from Final Space, Rick and Morty, Futurama... to a DeLorean, a TARDIS😍 (maybe too simple for you!?🤔 But I would definitely try building my own with a fun video from you🧡) and all the other ships from shows, movies and books. (Not mentioning all the Star Wars thingies on purpose. Too mainstream and probably overdone already...🙈 ...The ship from Firefly or whatnot would be way more awesome.) It would be great to watch your take on those😍 PS.: Obviously...I love your creativity and sense of humour. Don't stop making videos 🧡 PS 2.: Since you said you'll read all of those...I have to use that opportunity. Could/Would you make a yellow submarine (video) too?😍😍
