    I love this video for showing me how to melt sprues... first time I'd ever heard of that and I am excited to play around with it. Only criticism I have is I wish you had showed the mold you used to get the texture on the side panels. I get that you plan to feature it in another video, and it would be holy appropriate to make a video showing how to create that mold... but I still wish you had showed it being used and gave an idea of how long into the drying process we should use it.

    My jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw you using the goo to make parts with. I always thought the best one could do with sprues was to cut them apart and glue the pieces back together in funny ways, so i've been recycling most of mine for years. This is making me think twice about that!

    I really like your sprue builds. I have a bunch of Warhammer figures and such and I was thinking, there must be some way to use all the leftover plastic from your models. I never actually knew how until after I saw one of your videos on how to use sprues.
    With ooey gooey spruey stuff you can make virtually anything you could make with clay, I appreciate the information.
    Keep up the good effort.

    I recently used some Round Sprue too add some spikey bits to an Ork Warboss I was making. Just sharpen one end slightly, cut it off as flat as possible and attach it. Once it's on you can shape it to match the model a little better with a hobby knife. Any leftover gaps can just be filled with green stuff/crack filler. Worked like a charm and I have you to thank! Cheers from Canada!

  • @damonatherstone9195
    @damonatherstone9195 Před 3 lety +19

    I have a rust technique you might like, my fellow hobby hackers! It's called "salt weathering." Essentially, paint your model/terrain brown/rust coloured. Then, after its dry, apply water to the areas you'd like rust. Pour table salt over the model. It will stick to the water, but will come off easily from the dry surfaces. Leave it to dry out, and paint the model in your desired colour scheme. The salt will form mounds over the rust areas that mask some of your paint. After the paint is dry, remove the salt and voila, rust effect!

    Always happy to see more sprue terrain. I feel like most people enjoy these because it enables us to get some hse out of sprues AND saves a ton of money from having to buy dedicated terrain sets. Always better to spend that money on more models. At least that's why I personally enjoy sprue terrain most

    Apparently btw this works with ABS plasric too. Which is what toys and the external parts of lots of consumer products are made of. There are industrial solvents for gluing that stuff together thst are less fume-intensive than straight acetone. Plastruct and possibly other brands make solvents that can weld ABS to model styrene too.

    Love theses vids :). I got a slight ocd when it comes to sorting and saving as much space as i can. If you need more space i would recommend spending a day or 2 pre cutting all the sprues so you can have boxes ready with long, short, nibbley nobbaly bits and also one for shapes . Would definitely free up the voided space between them all and could fit a lot more all in 1 box :)

    Seeing the patchy end result of these crates I think you could do something around an Astra Militarum unit left without support.

Maybe something to work on alongside the Orky/Nurgly builds you do regularly to keep the content stream going.

    Back in like 1996 or so I was building something in cardboard and using PVA as a strengthener. When I painted acrylic onto it I had the cracking. So I thought what if I mix PVA into the acrylic? Well not only did that layer not crack, and that layer also appear to softened the visible cracks of the layer below it, but it also added a bit of rigidity. I didn’t try varnishing over it tho so idk how well that would work.
