Please next time show the whole bookshelf as one of the glamour shots. Maybe it is feasible to have your camera for the glamour shots 'stand' on a table/shelf, and you slide it left and right? That way you might be able to get a more steady shot? Not sure, but worth a try.

I don't even play Skyrim, but I think this is an epic booknook! I love that you reshaped the roof to fit the bedroom shape. I think all your hard work paid off; it looks amazing!

For some reason my subtitles were showing up in German, so from now on I'm calling Breezehome "Brisenhaus". I loved this. Brisenhaus is where I go in my mind when I can't fall asleep. I LOVE seeing it brought to life like this. Thanks for sharing all your hard work with us!

Oh no! I must have put the wrong subtitle file in. Which language should it have been? Though, to be fair it does sound like a pretty happy accident

“You gotta start somewhere” 14:49 That really meant a lot to me, like deeply. I’m trying to start making these sort of projects (currently working on your calcifer diorama for a friend for Christmas!) and something about the way you turned the slight joke of “hmm maybe I make trash pieces” to “that’s ok it’s better to try than not to and then learn” encouraged me immensely. Tysm.

And if the inhabitants lose all their teaspoons, they can use their roof shingles to stir their coffee! Perfect!

The commentary on the furniture situation gives me LIFE

I've just started playing Skyrim again after a few years (I have to admit Todd got me with the anniversary update). I think this is my favourite builds you've ever done and might well have been the first video of yours I saw. I think I've watched and re-watched this video about 4 times now xD but as soon as I started playing again that I wanted to come back and watch the majesty that is this build. this video and your channel as a whole have really inspired me to venture into the terrain sections of my local hobby shops. I even ended up making a little miniature/diorama for one of my uni projects xD (I can only blame my lecturer, he was joking about me making a miniature set...I was not. xD I really hope you make more Skyrim builds in the future, though I understand if this was enough Skyrim building (and stir sticks) for one lifetime xD

All you need is Lydia, endlessly sitting at the table in your bedroom, eating bread and watching you sleep.

I used to build book nooks till I took an exacto blade to the knee . :) Awesome job .

I LOVE this. So glad you slanted the roof and added shingles. It made the whole thing 20% cooler

My Elderscrolls-adoring heart is so happy at this model! You're stuff is always so awesome!

It took me over an hour with internet issues to watch this whole thing (I had to restart things multiple times) by the time I was mostly finished I was going to give you grief about the trip hazard floors, and then: BANG!!! "It's a book nook dummy"! Really nice Job! Looks great!

OMG, I want to go and play Skyrim again. Awesome

Looks amazing.

Noice. I'm currently replaying Skyrim with the 10 years worth of updates and new crap. Breeze home was where I mostly keep my family. Always have. It feels cozy.

Your commentary was easy to listen to and I learned that maybe I COULD DO THAT! Thanks!

The roof shingles may have not been needed and tedious, but it’s super cool knowing they are there.

looks so fantastic and so many lovely details.

Love the video! A quick way I like to cool down hot glue quickly it to use canned air turned upside down, a quick blast and its set.

Great build as usual, seen you have some Terry Pratchett books, maybe you can do a build from Discworld, maybe unseen university, mended drum, granny Weatherwaxs cottage.

one of my favorite things about these videos is that you dont use a lot of fancy tools, and it feels tangible for someone starting out to watch your videos and get a good idea for what they can try to do. Not that I would blame anyone for using 3d printers or expensive tools, its just nice to see such a down to earth craftsman, who's honest about the process and doesnt mislead with video editing out hiccups along the way. that being said even if you get fancy tools it wont make your videos any less fascinating and entertaining to watch

I hade to load up an old save because for all the time I spent in Breezehome because I couldn't remember a bookshelf in the bedroom. Nope, it's not there. But it should be. I'm really loving this.
