That was enough to get me in the door
Your assistant, after being told that there's no wrong way to apply the paint, puts an atom of paint on the tower, and you immediately yell "THAT'S WRONG!" at her - that made me laugh for an unhealthy length of time.

I would love to know what the companies that send products to the more sardonic UK creators think. Send it to a US one and its almost always "OMG! Watch us lose our shit so hard we have to mainline Thorazine to stop us" send to Dan "Its a 3D printer, it prints in 3D, also big"

Thankyou for this new video Mister Does. I'm glad that you included railings on your model as I feel good health and safety practices should be encouraged more often in the minature wargaming world.

Fantastic build as always!! If that was in a game I'd think "oh I bet that has some fantastic loot!" Spectacular! Also I absolutely lost it when you showed your "boat" and threw it on the water (which actually floated quite well🤣).
Oh man, you just keep making such inspiring builds! This was such a beauty of a transformation from the stacking cups. Bravo! 🤯🤩

This was awesome Dan. Always a pleasure to see your unique spin on the crafting KZread staples. If you put transparent plastic in between the platform support struts it would make a good aircraft control tower.

In the mindset of sharing I'll offer up my mom to share
Dan! Your All New Dan Does Craft format looks A MAY ZING!!! Loving the editing style in the trailer!!!!! Now, excuse me, but I have an appointment with my therapist!!!!!!! New Kiddytek printer? That will give your Kiddy Slicer something else to do. What's that - Different type of slicer....? Oh.
I felt that tape pull up the paint. It always sucks when that happens. This really came together in the end. Great job!
Fantastic video as always Dan, one technique I use for creating a rusty metallic undercoat (especially on larger models) is a matt black followed by a light misting of medium brown spray paint and a light misting of silver spray paint. Crushed chalk pastels also help to add a caked on rust texture, although I think you've been doing that already. I'd like to add another like here for Beth for her contributions as well!

I like the grip tape as a texture. I used old speaker grills for my 40k Grey Knight bases because i got them mainly to play Boarding Actions. Adds a nice weight to the model too. ( You could use them as the platform too if you want a perferated platform, they are quite robust if you know any installers )

Not to say anything bad about your blood but I found your channel through Bill and now I can’t really watch his stuff because it looks less “organized” by comparison (his music is fun though). I love the sculpts especially, it just gives your channel more variety. The MCK’s are a great series, can’t wait to see more! Nice job on this terrain. Wonderful marketing skills with that first print. Wishing you many more sponsorship deals based on how well this one was handled!

Rockin' that intro, Dan. Totally bitchin', as kids possibly said, at some point in history. I can't keep this up. Sorry. But yes, if you find some of those stacking cup things, do clean them well, to remove any anomalous materials that might cling to the inside. Be wary of piss, shit, and rags, is what I'm saying. Having found evidence of all three in an Action Man armoured car I was renovating once, it's not a pleasant surprise, and it remains with you for a long time afterwards. Seriously though, love that tower. It really has a darkness about it, like something that looms up out of the fog, on an otherwise empty moor. You have made a hauntological model, Dan. Be proud. And slightly afraid. 👍👍👍

@@Dan_Does Twins aren’t like real brothers. A real brother would make the other buy the filament under the false pretense that he would be allowed to use the printer. Then the brother with the printer would just use the filament for his own projects. That’s how brothers who never shared a womb do each other.
