@@ThumpertTheFascistCottontail Glad you liked that! I initially did a straight blend (footage on top layer set to 50% opacity) but decided to experiment with blend modes instead. The black background those figures were filmed against allowed the figures to stand out.

Model kits are fun in general Whether they be Gundam and Bandai kits,Kotobukiya,Warhammer miniatures, and more, they’re easy to have fun with and relax with,just like this video
Unless they're Mechanicore kits, then that becomes torture for most and a test of skills and wits for the crazy few sadists that enjoy that grade of pain.
@@MachineMindDesigns True Mechanicore kits are a test of skill,patience,and how much you can put up with I’ve never built a Mechanicore kit,and I never want to
CrafsMan... you never fail to put a smile on my face. Lately, I haven't had many reasons to smile; but I can always count on you. Doesn't matter what you are doing, your gentle voice and easy approach to everything just gives me hope for better days. Hugs
I believe that Isaac Newton wanted to call his new theories about gravity "Crazy Math," however the board of directors and the publicity department decided that Newtonian Physics was catchier. Poor Isaac went to his grave feeling that people were going to get his mathematical theories confused with cookies. And that's exactly what happened. I, like you, prefer the term "Crazy Math." Look at those sliders shots and amazing lighting! I love the X-acto knife control - no cut fingers, why? Because you're a pro! I have never seen a 3.5 inch GI Joe look so GINORMOUS! Great video, Crafsman! p.s. I'm reminding you to talk about macro. : /
Holy wow that building the monkey sequence with the background music and overlays and ending to majesticallly on the completed figure was so satisfying 🔥🤙🏼💪🏼
I really enjoy the music that you make for these Crafsman. It gives it it's own unique feel and I quite enjoy it. It would be awesome to have a playlist of your music. And I liked the video a lot. I hope we get to see you paint some of these or maybe make a diorama. I can't wait to see how you build their character.
Here's an idea, each family member has a sprue from different sets, you each pull off a piece, then pass the sprues. Seems like a fun way to make some interesting choices.
I also love the Frostgrave mini line up! They're just as cheap and just as customizable! Plus the ruleset for both these games is incredibly easy to learn and can be played with any existing minis you might already have.
I built a model tank with my nephews over Thanksgiving that was interesting, but just another tank. However the kit had a few soldier with similar tiny components and separate limbs to glue together and they loved it. Spent hours gluing all the tiny accessories on and getting things positioned just right. I just ordered some of these so we can build them at Christmas. Thanks for the the inspiration!
My favorite CZcams channel. Why can't I stop watching this silly-looking puppet with a voice from down in the Bayou!? I am an adult, after all, for goodness sakes! Now, I find myself shelling out my hard-earned allowance on this thing called Patreon, so you will keep making more videos. But I told my wife, "It's MY allowance, I can spend it how I WANT!". She just rolled her eyes and said..."Awww Rite!" In an authentic Crafsman accent. I do love that woman. Keep up the great work making quality content, Crafsman. Mister Gulsby
As a long time Warhammer hobbiest, who recently discovered your videos, there is no wrong way to do anything. Just have fun and rule of cool is always best. Love the videos CrafsMan.
Hey crafsman I hope you see this if you do I just want you to know i just enrolled into a very intense education academy(I’m 14, almost 15) and I’ve just been studying all day. Even on Saturday I have school and on Sunday I’m so exhausted I can’t do any hobby related thing, but seeing this video you helped me realize I not only have to make time but also keep these creative things in mind(maybe write them down) so when I finish this year(it’s a one year program) I won’t forget all about my hobbies and I’ll be a creative, chill, and all around nice person just like you rather than forgetting them and continuing to be depressed. in your youth, your field of work was different than your passion but you remembered and kept it in your heart and today you can follow your dreams. Thank you. I really look up to you.
Crafsman what can I say about this video?........... I can say I loved it and the work you put into this video and every video you make is outstanding! Thank you for making these fantastic entertaining, informative videos and thank you for being you! You ALWAYS warm my heart and have helped me through some very tough times. I have watched your videos over and over again and when I have had severe anxiety your videos have helped me so much, they provide me with a comforting feeling and a distraction from my anxiety. Thank you, you truly are a wonderful person ❤️
Your macro shots really blew me away! I'm in the process of building a lot of Warhammer 40,000 minis, and what I've found easiest to put them together is super glue with a brush.
I really like the idea behind the plastic solvents that create more of a fused connection. That's probably the best way to go as far as integrity. But I also know, knowing me (LOL), I would have had it all over the place even more than the glue, with half the mini mildly melting from the excess. :) OH, and "sprue glue"... that's a neat thing to make from the leftover plastic. (Break up the leftover sprues and place in a glass jar of acetone.) Something I learned only recently.
Hello, Crafsman!! Here's a video idea: Making dioramas for these neat little guys. Maybe you could make a forest, maybe you got a damaged bit of alien equipment or something. I think it would be cool to see how you could do a diorama out of some foam pieces with that lil fake grass and whatnot. I would also love to see them painted, but... you know.
OOOh these look fun! CrafsMan here's a useful fun bit of maths application: If you want to find the center of any circle all you need is a square (tool) or any right angle. Just draw two right angle triangles anywhere in the circle making sure all points touch the edge of the circle. Where the two hypotnuses intersect is the center of that circle. Quick, easy, and accurate!
Northstar/Osprey kits are fantastic. The Stargrave kits have been staring at me every time I walk into my local shop. Might be a good time to pick them up.
Craftsman, I been craftin on Gaslands, ever since your video on modifying hotwheels from over a year ago! My wife and son too! I'm happy to see more videos on miniatures today. I'd love to see you try some more Gaslands cars or even miniature terrain pieces. Thank you for your content, still one of my favorite shoes ever!
I've never had so much joy in hearing your voice. Your puppet cracks me uo, and your voice both soothes me and brings me joy. I learn, yet relax... confusing.....and yet relative as a hobbyist....craftman you keep crafting beautiful content...
Stargrave gives you so many bits. I have bits comin out my ears. It's great for kitbashing little peeps or most any variety. Helps when the crazy math starts trying to manifest around my head OH LAWD THERE THEY IS AGAIN! Oh uh, thanks for the video. I gotta eat an apple or somethin to get the maths to go away.
CrafsMan! I just bought the crew and mercenaries pack at my local game store. I'm out of my element too, so as soon as I got home I looked up stargrave miniatures on CZcams-and there you were! Steady craftin! Looking forward to putting these together for a solo game call Five Parsecs from Home.
I'm only a minute into the video and I just have to pause and catch my breath... I've been a long time subscriber and often wonder how in the world you're going to top every video you publish. You consistently do it every single time!
Oh that's great! I myself got into frostgrave some years ago, really low budget game, which makes it so much better for playing with the kids! (Younger siblings and other family members in my case)
I honestly just stumbled upon this channel today and already absolutely love it. TheCrafsMan is like a bob ross of arts and crafts to me and I already die laughing every time he does the shoulder shrug.
I love putting stuff together, I started with model kits but recently moved to miniatures and while im not the best painter, I have a lot of fun putting them together! but warhammer can be so expensive, so thanks a lot for showing me a new model kit series that is more wallet friendly and still looks good! thank you crafsman, you are the best!
What a beautiful, calming great little video. I could watch hours of this. I've never done this kind of thing but I'd love to sit around the kitchen table with you and your family and try it. I almost feel homesick for that because after watching a few of these videos you know that kitchen table is a happy and peaceful place.
I honestly enjoy the painting aspect of miniatures without having to spend time building, which is why I collect A Song of Ice and Fire and Battletech.
Yes sir. I cut my bits off the sprue with a hobby knife over a mat like you do in a couple shots. Clippers are just bulkier than I care to mess with on such a tiny scale!
Crafsman now I gotta see you customize some of these figures! Your miniature/kitbash/toy videos are my absolute favorite and I would love to see what you would come up with customizing these lil guys.
Hey, if you're going to to be working with small stuff like this in the future, a set of precision tweezers will be extremely useful. A set of tweezers for electronics use is really inexpensive on Amazon.
Glad you found these models, Stargrave has great models especially for the cost and is a fun system to play as well. One tip though, you can also uses small neodymium magnets on the heads, arms, weapons, and/or torsos, to swap them around. This is a great way to get more value out of your figures, keep having fun coming up with fun combinations, and if/when you play Stargrave or other game systems, your not stuck with a model that doesn't adhere to the WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) issue with points or the rules. Good stuff as always!
Really delightful video! I'm a big miniature hobbyist. I really enjoyed seeing you dip your toes in. I'd love to see you paint a few of these up at some point.
I just think you're the best ASMRist on CZcams...PFFFT! NAH! I'm kidding. I would not insult you like that, Crafs Man. Seriously though, you're one of my heroes, and I hope one day I could CRAFS as good as you and with as much enthusiasm and passion. Спасибо, Crafs Man for puttin' always puttin' a smile on my face.
The macro panning, the lighting (oh my word the lighting), as is usual for the Crafsman it was all so dead on the nose!.. I watched right to the end, transfixed.
Nice to see you again, Crafsman. I love your calm, peaceful voice in this seriously crazy world. God bless you and the Mrs with a very Merry Christmas 🎄
I thought Warhammer were expensive and then I found out how they cost outside of the UK! I'd love to see you paint these minis crafsman, it would be a dream to sit down and chat while painting together.
I've always been interested in minis like these, but still haven't brought myself to do it yet. I appreciate you taking the time to make this video & sharing what you've done with them. Just out of curiosity, did you consider making any molds of the bodies or parts to be able to use all the heads?
I got into minis about 3 years ago now and honestly I'd highly recommend it. I've tried to cast copies of swords and helmets that I really liked but I've never had any luck with it. There are others who have though. It's definitely possible And here are some lessons I've learned: Don't worry about mistakes when assembling, you can always hide them later with creative painting. Paint and assemble minis you like instead of ones you need for a list. Paint them in a scheme you enjoy. Nothing is worse than painting 40 dudes in a scheme that bores you to tears.
@@facenameple4604 Thanks for saying so. They look like it, but I'm no painter & slightly intimidated, however CrafsMan makes it look really fun here. Might have to pick up some of these.
@@turnt_barbarian The lack of knowledge and price of the minis is really what's stopping me. I have always been afraid of messing them up. No painting skills and assembling required has always sidelined me, but I'm more about "what I like" than "what I need" because I don't play the games. Not by choice, but by living where nobody plays. LOL Thank you very much for commenting & the suggestions.
Thank you all here for watching and taking time to comment! :D Jay, that's a good question! My mind often thinks "how would I make a mold of this?" :D These would be fairly TRICKY, for sure, given the small size. Venting and pressure casting is likely essential to success here, because bubbles in those little points (like the tip of a knife blade) would present a challenge. Still, definitely possible.
Thank you for another wonderful video. Miniatures and painting are my main hobby so it's always exciting to see things like this and Gaslands make an appearance!
Hey Crafsman, it's cool to see you getting into minis. One tip, you can use the blunt side of your knife to scrape and clean the mould lines to make your minis look nicer.
I'd like to take an opportunity to thank you, CrafsMan, for the many many hours of content that you have provided this year and wish you a very Merry Christmas and an even more prosperous (and healthy) New Year!

Also go after Aqua Shooters (Gashapon chibi girls in water warfare) and Animagear (Candy modular animal robot models)
I was thinking the same thing! I hear the rx-78-2 perfect grade unleashed is a really cool build.
@@redndead8993 I'm a third of the way through it now. It's very involved. Takes up my whole dining room table.

Miniatures are my jam so it makes me happy to see people who aren't normally a part of the hobby enjoying themselves. Thanks for the vid.

Your macro shots really blew me away!
I'm in the process of building a lot of Warhammer 40,000 minis, and what I've found easiest to put them together is super glue with a brush.
For sure, super glue is the easiest to apply, but it is also the easiest to break. Sometimes that's a whole lot of heartbreak.
I really like the idea behind the plastic solvents that create more of a fused connection. That's probably the best way to go as far as integrity.
But I also know, knowing me (LOL), I would have had it all over the place even more than the glue, with half the mini mildly melting from the excess. :)
OH, and "sprue glue"... that's a neat thing to make from the leftover plastic. (Break up the leftover sprues and place in a glass jar of acetone.) Something I learned only recently.
Hello, Crafsman!!
Here's a video idea: Making dioramas for these neat little guys. Maybe you could make a forest, maybe you got a damaged bit of alien equipment or something. I think it would be cool to see how you could do a diorama out of some foam pieces with that lil fake grass and whatnot. I would also love to see them painted, but... you know.
I love miniatures! Here for the production value and subject matter!
OOOh these look fun!
CrafsMan here's a useful fun bit of maths application:
If you want to find the center of any circle all you need is a square (tool) or any right angle. Just draw two right angle triangles anywhere in the circle making sure all points touch the edge of the circle. Where the two hypotnuses intersect is the center of that circle. Quick, easy, and accurate!
The cold open on this one is ... unbelievably good.
Crafsman, the music in this one is so good to listen to! Thank you for yet another amazing video.

Oooo another craftsman video!

@@turnt_barbarian The lack of knowledge and price of the minis is really what's stopping me. I have always been afraid of messing them up. No painting skills and assembling required has always sidelined me, but I'm more about "what I like" than "what I need" because I don't play the games. Not by choice, but by living where nobody plays. LOL
Thank you very much for commenting & the suggestions.
Thank you all here for watching and taking time to comment! :D
Jay, that's a good question! My mind often thinks "how would I make a mold of this?" :D These would be fairly TRICKY, for sure, given the small size. Venting and pressure casting is likely essential to success here, because bubbles in those little points (like the tip of a knife blade) would present a challenge. Still, definitely possible.
the candid jingle at the end was the best part of this video fosho. "da dada da dahh.......... crafmaaaaaan........... steady craftiiiiiiiiin"
Crafsman is actually one of the best parts of CZcams, I love his humour and his skills 💜
It's easy to overlook what a skilled puppeteer Crafsman is. He's doing some great work in this video!
Thank you for this! These look super cool. I have a feeling you built some super cool combos. The Monkey head is awesome!
Thank you for another wonderful video. Miniatures and painting are my main hobby so it's always exciting to see things like this and Gaslands make an appearance!
Hey Crafsman, it's cool to see you getting into minis. One tip, you can use the blunt side of your knife to scrape and clean the mould lines to make your minis look nicer.
while i love anything you make Crafsman, seeing you in my neck of the woods (miniatures) fills my heart with warmth.
I'd like to take an opportunity to thank you, CrafsMan, for the many many hours of content that you have provided this year and wish you a very Merry Christmas and an even more prosperous (and healthy) New Year!
Wow Crafsman! I stopped watching your channel for a bit and you've got a boatload of followers! Great job👍 and steady craftin' my dude 😎
oh man those are fantastic kits! Wish I had those to chop up when i started warhammer.
We need a video of you painting them!!!
NEEEEEED IT!
