You guys! I just realized after uploading this that it is the 150th Episode! And that's 150th episode, not video......I've put up 230 videos to date that include Reviewsday vids and whatnot, but ACTUAL FULL FRIDAY EPISODES this is 150! That's crazy!
Black Magic Craft congrats! Now on to the next 150 âïž
Heyooooo!!!!
Black Magic Craft congratulations!!!!đ€©
Black Magic Craft congrats! Keep up the great work, but donât exhaust yourself!
That's an awesome milestone! Congratulations. You're videos are incredibly useful, and they make great watching when inspiration is lacking, or when there is just nothing on netflix :D
when I watch these kind of videos with basements and hobby desks like these, full of shelves with miniatures and scenery, and plenty of paints, tools and who knows what else, I WANT TO CRY.
That's a pretty crap attitude to take. I started with one knife and a cutting board.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial yes, you are right, but laziness and lack of willpower are powerful enemies! Anyway, your videos are very fun to watch ;-)
Pro-Tip: Don't go into the basement and under no circumstance read from the strange book you may find there...
Is that a evil dead reference
@@heresdatboi2647
Is that a question?
Yes and no
@@heresdatboi2647
This is a clear reference to Evil Dead and to all those Cabin-in-the-woods movies out there.
The problem is, once you have seen one or two of this sort of movies, you have sort of seen 'em all, with very very few exceptions: a group of smart young people go to a cabin/shack in the deep woods, awake some sort of evil and die one after another pretty ghastly and bloody. Lot of screaming and stupidity inbetween - end of movie.
Notable exceptions are Blair Witch 1, Tucker & Dale vs Evil and Cabin In The Woods.

Thanks for not editing out all the problems faced during construction. What a great build. Glad I was along for the ride and congrats with continued success.
Inside, the shack is slick and spotless, and _bulging_ with fancy technology.
Definitely, DEFINITELY this is the kind of video I prefer! You release all your passion and enthusiasm, I can see: well done!!! If this is the result of the fact that you will never make your reviews Tuesdays again, then it's great! Go on like this, Jeremy: I'll follow you until you have a million subscribers and more! Never stop! Cheers!
Ignoring the actual project, do you like this âvlog styleâ way of filming the video more than the usual voice over how to approach?
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficialThe approach in which you alternate the two cameras is very good, and also the diagonal position on the table is very beautiful: it seems to be next to you while you are crafting. The experience seems very involving to me. Nothing to say about your previous "style" ... but this, in my humble opinion, is what I prefer.
Thatâs great feedback!
This style is actually easier and more fun to edit but harder to film. I really like this style and would like to do it more. I also like that it allows for only music and no talking, the voice overs rarely allow that.
Black Magic Craft this vlog style is great!
I'd say do whichever method is easiest for you to record and produce.... However, I personally like this method, because it feels like I'm in the room with you and you're teaching me directly.
I loved the leap of faith in cutting apart the building "Let's... just.... do THIS!? Aaaah!"
Came together super well. Was wondering how many projects have you taken a risk like this but screwed up so badly that it's not salvageable? There's always lots of honest mistakes and experimentation in your videos but the work always comes together, would be interested to know how often it doesn't and you just have to scrap hours of work. Or do you find most things can be recovered?
Iâve only once ever totally scrapped a project because of a major problem, and that was a few years ago.
I remember the Frostgrave one that didn't work out, but I'm not sure that was unsalvageable as much as just a failed experiment.
Love it... I was getting more of an "Evil Dead" vibe from it.
Patrick Hanna exactly..when I saw the thumbnail that's what immediately popped into my head.
Well, it could be a little old place where you can get rock lobsters.
It could.
I would love to see an official evil dead table too game.

Very well done.
As someone that explores abandoned houses/building quite often, I do have a few suggestions for such builds.
1) Walls with doors ALWAYS have a window on the main floor. Even 200 yr old buildings.
2) There are almost never any dead plants outside the structure.
3) Moss is not often seen. It's usually ivy of some type. The older the building's abandonment, the more ivy.
4) Weeds and trees seem to love growing throw windows. Especially of the tree is growing from the inside of the building.
5) If possible, include carpenter bees and wasp nest. As well as bird nests. As well as leftover (and damaged) items found in the building. But place them outside. Abandoned buildings are always ransacked by vandals. Regardless of the time period.
You can find a few of my abandoned photos on instagram @SEspider. But I suggest looking up ThisIsDanBell on youtube. And his Dead Motel series.
Keep up the great work.
SEspider one thing about moss....it all depends on where the old buildings are. I lived in western Washington state, and moss is everywhere, whether a worn down house or a shed in the back yard. Also, northern Alaska, lichen and moss is everywhere. I think it depends on where those old, abandoned places are.
I live in Ohio and some old, decrepit, cinder block house is in my area. That thing is absolutely loaded with moss to the point that itâs once white paint is now stained green. It also has a for sale sign in the window that has been there my entire life; itâs kinda sad in a way.
also a tramp's turd covered in mould. Or a dead tramp.
Mosses and lichens always cover a very old abandoned building. There are always loads of dead bushes too. Usually covered by other living growth though. I know Michigan might not have the oldest abandon buildings but we sure do have plenty of them.
I understand that your perspective is an American one, but I just want to note that that isn't necessarily universal. Just a few things that jump out to me from the UK:
1) My own back door's wall has no windows on the bottom floor - though that part of it is roughly Tudor age, so the construction norms would have been even more divorced from current.
3) We have a lot of moss - particularly thick on thatched roofs, but on slate as well. Ivy's still great though. I suspect it strongly depends on where the building is, and the climate.
5) Carpenter bees are US-specific, but birds are always going to be an excellent plan.
The damage and weathering look absolutely fantastic!
Remember, If you craft something and it accidentally breaks, you just made it better!

What if it's supposed to be modern,and,new?
Did You Think Of That?!?!
@@Eliciamac always works for ruins/disaster pieces.
HI ITS BEAUTIFOOL BROOO NICE HOME
10/10 would live in that shack
WAIT I GOT AN IDEA!
HAVE LIGHTS AND SPOOPY FOG COMING OUT OF THE SHACK SHOWING IT HAUNTED!
I checked out where the inspiration for this shack came from last weekend, and yep, it's entirely gone. Which is testament to BMC's craft and memory as to how well he recreated this ancient farm home. It was a landmark on a prairie roadtrip for many years. I did take photos of many others that were around the same area and will be posting them in the facebook group. Cheers.
It is... THE SHACK
Are we gonna see a styrofoam star destroyer tutorial from you Shack?
@@oguzcankiremitci891 I can
Idk if this would count as that or not, but you should do a "scrap challenge" where you ONLY use scrap cutouts from other projects. I think it would compliment your "dollar store challenge". (Obviously just a suggestion. You do whatever you want. Love your content đ)
I feel like thatâs exactly whit this is!
It looks so GOOD!! My favorite part of your vids is when you show us really up close shots so I can see the intricate details of wood grain and weathering strokes.
one thing that is missing is a plant that has climbed over the building up to the roof, either left or right of the shack , because since you have plants, vines that climb walls usually take hold of a place like this....Overall fantastic job and inspiration
I was thinking the exact same. Still, awesome concept & build!!
I'm stunned how this turned out, nevermind the technical aspects, just your ability to visualize something before you put knife to foam is off the damn charts. Sweet!
That is the worst looking house you've ever made..
well done!
It would probably be a pain in the ass, but it needs leaves piled around it.
@@morgan5941 Nah.. it would be easy.. some actual dried leaves and a blender.. done and done.. ; D
This video has taught me something I have been struggling so hard to find. Weathered almost bleached wood. I have Skaven war machines that I want to look like rotten driftwood. And now I know how to do it. Thank you!
awesome build. I really like your approach to physically break the entire building. Great stuff really inspiring.
I'm so inspired watching your videos. I remember being a small child and trying to build houses out of cardboard boxes or whatever I could find. I think it's time for my adult self to follow up on those projects!
You gotta do it!
Love this build! So glad to see different bigger projects again, one of my fav house builds youâve done along with the hut :)
Love the shack! Also enjoy the turntable of the final shots at the end.
Hey man, I just wanted to thank you for the all the work you have displayed. It is very educational and inspiring!
I love this channel! Itâs like watching âThis Old House,â but with miniature stuff!
The fact that this guy shows his mistakes AND makes gorgeous stuff- ITS THE BEST
Loved this build. Seeing the "mistakes", and how you overcame or resolved them is encouraging. Wonderful little shack.
One of my favorite videos that you have made. I love how on the fly everything is. Also the time lapse of your work was cool to watch. Keep it up brother you're the man.
That shack would be great for a swamp encounter or even a old witch shack hidden in a eerie forest area
This is one of my favorite builds. Kind if reminds me of one if the dilapidated shacks I see on the way up to Sandyhook. Awesome job.
Just picked up my Proxxon and I feel like my crafting gained several levels! Iâve gone from dabbling to obsession. Thanks man!
Can i just say, your videos have gotten so much better recently. Your editing style and everything has improved so much since i srarted watching you. Well done.
Finally a video of what I want to make. My experience is with styrene as I have never seen foam used this way, you obtained better results, quicker!
Thanks for the lead.
This is definitely one of those videos that I love, love and love.
Using PVA instead of Aleene's tacky glue was for me a magical moment. I think this sets the scene for applying the wood planks and all that follows. The result would have been completely different and possibly the fact that planks are able to move around while ruining the cottage make for a much nicer effect in the end.
A true happy accident - Bob Ross all over again đ€
LOVE this project I need to make a couple of these for my table!
Dude, your work is astounding! You practically threw that together, and it looks amazing. Subâd
This is the first video of yours I've watched but definitely not the last. You've got some wicked skill, brother. Your passion shines and your technique is impeccable. LOTS of great tips.
I love old shacks. They are so much fun to visualize what their history was. They are so common here in the Ozarks that any road trip here of an hour long you will see a half dozen of them along the roadside. I even have one on my property that I didn't even know was there the first year I lived here. My son found it when he was hiking in the woods.
I've watched about 4 of your builds now, and my dude, thats FREAKIN AMAZING
This is really great, the black version looks like a house thats been through a mild bushfire. or house fire.
I'm so glad you showed up in my Recommended, this is so beautiful and I can't wait to see what else you have made and will make. Subscribed!
This is a great build. I find run down terrain a lot more forgiving for us new builders too so it's definitely something I'd love to try out myself
The idea to build the terrain first then break it rather than trying to make a broken building from the get go is a really interesting way to go about a project like this. Broken glass technique worked out well! Very useful piece of terrain!
Sometimes it's easier to just crush something than try and design it crushed.
"but I'm stupid and stubborn."
mood.
Love the editing and music in this episode, along with the build itself. Keep up the great work!
I love these â Iâm going to build somethingâ videos. Just so much fun to watch your process. Thank you for another great one!
Simple materials, but amazing work. Itâs makes for a great backstory on how the house came to be.
I wasn't fully awake when I saw this episode listed on my page and read the title as, "The SHACK Made from Styrofoam for Therapy."
Figured you were acting out due to suppressed creativity. & Gratz on #150
Who's the wood crumbling home
That's made from scraps of building foam?
Shack!
You're damn right
You see this foam Shack is one well crafted mother-
Shut your mouth
But I'm talking about the Shack.
The video was good but your comment made my day.
Cheers all.
We can dig it
I just gotta say, I love this style of video! It just seems more relaxed, almost like you're crafting in the same room as me. As someone who watches tutorials with the aim of picking up techniques and ideas for my own builds (rather than actually step by step following the tutorial) it's great, and makes the video far more enjoyable to watch.
My son and I are building a Curse of Strahd Diorama right now and this is PERFECT! Thank you!
My reaction when you first started cutting into the house: "Jeremy's gone crazy... noooooo!"
Sometimes you just gotta jump out da plane.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial legit LOL here... thank you!
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial you made the exact same sound as I did when you started to cut.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial aight, where we dropping?
I think it would've looked amazing if you had a tree coming out from one of the holes in the roof. Amazing work! Oh and thanks a lot for adding yet another freaking hobby to the ever growing list I don't have enough time for.
I love this style of video! The focus on problem solving and creativity really comes through and leaves me wanting to go create something.
Awesome. Itâs a very different approach than the voice over ones. Itâs more about problem solving and why rather than how. Itâs a nice change of pace for me to do vids like this sometimes. Still not sure which is better. This type is harder to film but way more fun to edit. These types also run a bit longer than the same project done in the other style video. Itâs debatable if thatâs good or bad.
This one is one of my new favorites , it such a simple build but has soooo much character to it. It makes you ask yourself what story it would've had. Also it seems like you're having more fun building again now the stress of the Tuesday videos is gone! Great job đ
Awesome! You ask what we think... I think artist does art! Great Episode and grats on 150th!
Hey! It's that "Easter Egg' shack from Tuesday! (comment submitted at 0:10)
But you didn't even comment about the easter egg in THIS video yet!.......there might not actually be one.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 5:19 dollarama super glue appears!
Honestly one of the best and most inspiring crafts channels on CZcams. It's so inspiring and relaxing to watch, being told like "Looks terrifying, looks really hard, just relax, it's gonna be fine, you can do this at home too with some patience and creativity". Feels less like those aquarium builds I used to watch where it's very cool, but no way anyone on a student's budget could actually pay for it nor do it without some proper experience and lessons in the craft. Feels like a warm embrace, like a gentle father figure that patiently teaches you this kinda stuff.
Currently working to make a crack(ed) shack too because of you. Keep it up, gonna try to become a patron(if my financial situation allows it) and I absolutely LOVE the channel!
I just started the hobby and want to thank you for all your videos. They helped me a lot! Especially the tools you recommend, so I don't struggle with stuff that frustrates me. Like your channel a lot, keep it up. :)
"Got a roof. A bit of a disaster."
Is that a horrible thing for a building that is going to be a disaster?
'Lets see where this takes me'
AKA... Me when writing a book r an essay
Great job scratch building & TY for the tutorial . Its allvvays good to have scenery that can be used in multiple era's of gaming.
This is one of your best build if not the best and I love the fact that you show us your errors. Love your videos!
*says he gonna have trouble breaking it*
My four year old sister from the other room: BREAK! I CAN BREAK IT!
Anyone else here have ADHD and could only focus on the little moth flying around?
Dude you're so good at this. I've been slowly buying all the stuff I need to do builds like this. Never built before but after watching all of your videos and some of them twice im truely inspired. Thank you Jeremy. Keep on rocking !
Incredible work. I am completely blown away.
âFirst of all Milhouse, itâs fudgeSICLE.â
Great build with tons of great takeaways!
Love love love the work you do. Iâm an independent filmmaker and am always struggling for the locations and infrastructure I want in my films. This has given me a whole new perspective. Wish I had the time to learn and work in this medium then film it!
loving the organization of that entire room
Iâm glad you decided to make a destroyed building too, I tried building a nice cottage from some of your other tutorials, but my cuts were not very straight, so instead of scrapping it I decided to just turn it into an abandoned run down house
That is absolutely amazing! It looks like an old Arkansas farm house remains. I love it!
CZcams somehow threw me into all these craft videos and it brings me back to my warhammer days and reminded me of how much fun it is to build stuff like this. Looks amazing.
nice work, I really like how you go with each situation and handle bad decisions.
I love this build. I think I might try to build one for my Ravenloft campaign.
This is super sick! I think our DM may have modeled their shack after this. It's a really fun terrain piece!
Awesome project, Jeremy! Here's to the next 150 episodes! đ
Awesome build, I love that it looks worn down over time and sunken as opposed to just some big blast of damage :)
Love the kill team scenery! Wonderful build.
This is AWESOME! Nice House, I have seen some like this where we go camping. Most are "cabin type" But they still look like this build this was GREAT!! Thanks For All You DO!!
The final product is so cool~ It's like a concept art from The Last of Us!
I also love how you documented and didn't edit out the hurdles and mistakes. Similar videos don't usually show that part of the process, and I'd like to tell you how much I appreciate watching a professional be forward about these things~
You got yourself a new subscriber, man!
Love the build, it really turned out great.
I'd love to see you take on some modular WH40K/kill team industrial walkways and platforms.
I love these videos, they help inspire me with building stuff for my campaigns.
Pure talent, nice !!! You are needed in Hollywood.
I can watch you craft all day man. Your movements and cuts are so damn smooth. Everything I craft is lopsided due to my unsteady hands. Its like magic. Black magic. Used to craft.
What a sweet build. They way you let it sink into the ground is a fantatstic idea. Love the quick paint solution. Looks really perfect.
Thank you.
Hey .. and congrats to the 150th episode. Cheers.
I really like the way it turned out !! I just caught your channel for the first time . I have since watched 2 more in the beginning series. I love your layed back approach. You make me feel like i too can do this. THANK YOU !!! I have been wanting to build for many years now ,but have never started . With these videos i feel i can start. Thanks again .
Your work is amazing, I love these videos.
it's all in the awesome paint and foliage job
YES! Long videos! Again, amazing stuff. Trying to recreate scenary for my RPG table here in Brazil! You are one of my favorite content creators ever :D
That's a work of art all on its own! Well done!
Just found your channel a week or so ago and am loving it! Love your improvisation with this build, great work!
I love it. Wow. I like how you teach how you do step by step.
Mad skills. Props. I particularly loved the makeup brush applicator.
You are a From scrap God from scrap. All of your scenery has been phenomenal.
Sick build man! I've found that a space heater from a few feet away is a great way to gently speed up dry time on builds. Saying that you seams that you managed fine. Have a good weekend!
Awesome! Need to build something like that for my forest-ish board!
Great work again. I like that you took inspiration from a real shack you used to drive past.
BRAND NAME Fudgesicles? Now THAT'S class. Amazing build, dude!
