Sometimes the final result just turns out a little bit different from the sketch! Anyways, this was super fun, it's always so much fun creating stuff for pets. Probably more fun for us than for them....
Hope you enjoyed!
You both create awesome stuff!! Keep it up
Love from India.
Love the build! I think the stone could use a bit of painted moss or vines to add some detail, but the cats will love it :)
Loved the project!
btw... that might sound weird just now but what is the song that plays from 2:21 to 2:36? I swear I hear it everywhere and I just wanna know it's name so I can listen to it on CZcams T-T
i did see it in them especially the orange one that he loved the new house :D
i think that orange is a he, and gray is she? :D
It's amazing
I feel like my husband kinda hates you for all the ideas and motivation u give me. Our home is way tooo small for all the stuff I've built with all the inspiration by you guys. And now, even the cat might get involved... ( even if I know that she won't use such a tower, cause she's not into hiding at all XD )
What if you made the tower with multiple balconies? So that is more open and won't really feel like hiding.
Ruined castle with one or two of the walls missing
You could make more of a cat tree instead. Make it look realistic, but add wider perches.
If you have limited space, you could do what my friend did. She made a cat house into the corner of the room and made the exterior into shelves.
Basically it's a tall triangular castle that goes about ⅔ of the way up the walls, has book shelves going up, with a few landings and a balcony for the kitties at the top. It's a great way to use up some dead space and multi purpose builds are always worth doing!
She's kinda crazy tho, and her house is a cat jungle. The cat house attaches to a highway behind the TV, she has a skywalk for them above her head in her craft room (to keep them from walking on her stuff) and two attached window boxes outside. They can climb out a window in one room, walk along a deck outside and into the window in another room.
When the weather is nice she just leaves them open and the kitties are just all over the place!
It was a ton of work but her home is very small and these things keep the cats from getting into her important stuff, crafts and work areas.. I'd never recommend doing all of that, but the tower/bookshelf is a great idea for saving space. Corners are awkward and usually go unused.
One day, I wish I could have a kitty home like that... I'm jealous. Haha
I’ve been so inspired by NerdForge. But my cat was so bad about using his tree that I ended up claiming it to house my plant pots. He never climbed the damn thing after he reached about 2 months old. He never even used the top platforms. but now we struck a compromise. The top platforms and box doubles as a bookcase and plant stand for me, and he gets the bottom two levels to hide away from my siblings to nap awhile without being seen lol.
And Clyde is just like: "Yeah, talk as much as you want, I just take a nap here."
Um
Lol
The things we do because our cats own us and we love them
I know ours are spoiled rotten. We've got 5 cats and a kingsize bed. The contorted positions we sleep in just so we don't disturb them. Thank goodness for Chiropractors.
Isn't this the truth? My cats definitely run my household. XD
I think it's so funny because when I go "pspspspspsps" to my cats, they just look at me like "what" 😂😂😂😂😂
istg literally they’re so confused like “am I supposed to do smth”
Perhaps they are Finnish speaking cats and you need to go "ksksksksksksks".
@@filopat67 Mine are and the only thing they respond to is "nam nam" 😂😂
All cats speak Norwegian.
My cats hate the "pspsps" cause it sounds a bit like hissing
we raised them on a squeaky noise for a call, sorry there's no text equivalent, but it's like how you do a squeaky bird call and make kind of a kissy face to do it.
It's pretty unique lol.
It is good for preventing strangers from stealing our cats tho(huge prob here) since I assume they'll all go "here kitty, pspsps" and end up scaring them away instead of stealing them. At least I assume that's what's happening when I'm not looking, seeing as almost every house in the neighborhood has had a cat stolen except us.
11:23 yup that's how I imagine all dragons looking like
O my god I just realized the wings behind Clyde
MAJESTIC. BEAUTIFUL.
Fear, the mighty lord of the tower.
@@jeffreylan2814 Haha same xD He is so majestic
@@olliedayze Much grace!
Love that "pspspspsp" transcends all language
My cat was sleeping, but when she heard the "pspspspspps" she looked up at me, then looked at my monitor.
When you recognize the music from Scar's "super fast build mode"! 🙃
I heard the music and immediately my brain involuntarily rewound like 5 seconds just to play a memory of scar saying "and now it is time for... superfastbuildmode!"
Yes I had that too 😂
haha came down here to make this comment. LMAO when she entered superfastbuildmode.
We all do
i was looking for another hermit fan :)
11:23 looks like clyde has the dragon wings lol they look like they love it!
Oh my goodness you’re right 🤣
I agree with you💯
was looking for comments cause i was about to say the exact same thing xD
This is the proof that cats are gods and we should start building epic castles and monuments only for them
😼
Martina: just going to guess at the sizes
Martina:Proceeds to make a perfectly proportioned tower that fits the cats perfectly
Looks amazing once again the shot that made the castle look like it had wings was amazing but i love this and wish i could find tiles like this for 80% off
My friends are Renaissance reenactors they did this for their cat but they had to hand paint eat brick and it was crucial lol they had six people working on it at the same time I'm happy you placed the tiles. Keep up the amazing work hun xo
SCA?
@@mogwai247 no it's a viking group in Virginia that did the cat castle But my husband used to be in the SCA in Williamsburg VA.
@@fluffykitty6349 Oh, sweet! I always wanted to join SCA (still have it bookmarked) but it seemed really expensive. How was your husbands experience? Do you like the independent groups better?
@@mogwai247 once he learned everything and made sure that he was safe and he knew what he was doing he ended up becoming independent with his craft
@@mogwai247 What is SCA? Like a reenact group or something?
this channel honestly deserves at least a million subs, hopefully we'll get there soon! just love watching Martina making things, her attitude is the best and her accent is pretty cute!
Wow, thank you!
Oh yeah for sure! The craftsmanship on all projects that I have seen so far is just amazing! The dragon painting is just... wow...love it! but I love dragons 🐉 this cat tower is so cool my cats would love it!
@@Nerdforge can I ask what language that is?
@@kairilyn she is from Norway, so it would be Norwegian.
this comment aged well✨
This turned out absolutely incredible! Wish I'd have the capacity to make something like this for my own little (monster)princess. I think she'd love it.
Also, lol:
"Cat?"
No response.
"Cat want food?"
Immediate cat appearance.
Yup, sounds about right, that. XD
Exactly. Though I actually never seen one of my cats ever eat...
In US, when we want to create a cat house, we use cardboard ...probably recycled cardboard!! But when Nerdforge create a cat house/castle. you go straight to the good stuff; wood to make it sturdy, carpet to make it cozy, & tiles to create a masterpiece!! Very well done!!🏅
I have 5 cats, so it's more of a medieval city than a castle that I have to make ...
your castle is beautiful (like everything you do). I am French and my English is not enough to understand everything you say, however I do not miss any of your videos
(Google traduction)
Salut x)
Française aussi, mais être bilingue c'est pratique
S'il y a pas déjà des sous-titres je pourrais essayer de m'en charger quand j'aurai un pc ^^
Mais ton anglais n'est pas trop bête! (meilleur que mon français XD ce n'est pas mon langue maternelle)
Mais si c'est quelque chose tu ne comprends pas, je peux essayer traduir (c'est le mot pour "translate"?)
@@thatriverperson3080 oui c'est le bon mot ^^
@@Misstykata Merci :D
Yes to medieval city. 👏👏👏👏
Who knows the flute song they played during the glue process from Hermitcraft😋
Good Times With Scar - Super Fast Build Mode. lol
Superfast build mode
Yesssss
Yeah, and I've been trying to find out what his song is called. I can't find any videos of it other than his videos.
@Nathan Brown
Lupus Nocte, Howling :3
I'm not letting our cats watch this, they have a cardoard box to play in...
Use a marker to draw some bricks here and there. Minimum effort castle build, done.
Clyde gettin' the goods he clearly deserves :3
Rob my dude
I love how Clyde looks like he has wings when he’s at the top of the tower. 😂
Cat: "Yeah, that's cool. You got a cardboard box I could sit in?"
That's like the coolest cat tower I have ever seen! You are AMAZINGLY GIFTED!!! Now I wish I had cat. And with your mural in background it really looks in place. Thank you for another awesome inspiring video.
Yay the kitties have a tall and majestic tower to sleep and chill :D
You are so creative on making things, keep up the good work! 😁😁😁
Thank you! 😊
Np just never give up on your amazing dream uwu
And I say again your mural is everything, and a perfect backdrop for the castle.
the cat: *sleeps*
me: 👁👄👁 “awwwe he already like it”
2:58 when I heard the music, my brain just instantly jumped to Hermitcraft :'D
Me two!
You: Lupus Nocte - Howling
Me, an intellectual: superfast build mode song
*Contemplates building my cat a tower*
**stares intently at the 3 cat beds I’ve bought**
**looks at cat who is sleeping in corner of closet**
😔
Quite impressed the cat climbed through the inside 😁
I love your kitties! I need to make something like this for my boys and girls. I think Nosey Rosey Parker, Jazmine, Shelly (aka the Ginger Menace), Snoopy and Scooby would love this.
Im a simple person, I see a Nerdforge video, I click.
I love cats. I hope your cats enjoy their castle. I always think it shows more love for the pet if the owners make the item themselves than just go get a mass produced item.
Missed opportunity to call it a CATS-tle...
you deserve a medal!
I just love this and such lovely cats. Need to make this if i ever get cats. Looks very nice
0:55
The cat be like:
I see no god up here, OTHER THAN ME!
You live in a cold place, you should have added some type of electric mat heater for the cats to make them really love it!
I think a big part of the reason why this is my favourite diy/art channel is, while others present their results in a really muted way, Martina is like "Look! :D :D :D" and I love it!! :D
2:57 goodtimeswithscar timelapse music :D
that's all I could think about when I heard that
11:20 Look at this beautiful dragon cat. He really seems to like it. :D
That's so sweet of you to make GIANT Wizard Tower for your Cats, they really love it. I wonder what's your next project, keep up the great work. :)
Wow I've never seen anyone do super fast build mode in real life!!
At 11: 23 it looks like Clyde has wings from your AWESOME dragon painting.
...Ok yeah I need this. Awesome work! :-)
When you're not even done and the cat's already using it, it's a success 😂
Wow, WOW!!!! Where is the Love it button? Your cat castle is totally amazing. Thank you for sharing this with the world. 🏰
I love your videos, re-watching them now and just love the vibes you give off! So fun and chill!!
The end is my favorite part of any cat related crafting video 😂 the desperate attempt to get them to use it and then the immense satisfaction when they finally do!
This Cat Castle, is gorgeous !!! You should really ad a draw bridge to the front door of the Castle with some skirting to hide the legs and this would really complete this lovely Castle !!! ❤️ 🏰
I love the fact they speak to their cats in Norwegian. So cute.
My life consists of a three K rule - in German: Katze-Kaffee-Kind. In English: Cats - Coffee - Child. (many cats - ONE kid!!!). A wonderful inspiration for the new home of a new cat. My first and oldest one (23 years!) just died and I am still in a mourning phase. So I will take the time in between to build a real big castle!! Thank you so much! I love your arts and creations. A big hug from Berlin!
It looks amazing especially with the painting in the background.
I think this had kitty-approval before it was even finished. At least from one of them.
That was an awesome build!
Tile work looks really good. Great job!
The cat paws holding the lights is a cool addition
Amazing job, looks beautiful!!
Lmao I just realized that Goodtimeswithscar also uses the same time lapse music
Oh my gosh that is so cool 😎 Great jobs guys!!
so cute! I love how Clyde is already nappin on it during the video.
The comment section is magical too.
Video is for around sixteen minutes ago but comments are for yesterday .
That is so adorable!
Once again an amazing project. I love your channel its always awesome. And always helps me get through bad times. Both of Your ideas are always epic. Keep up the great work nerdforge
This is so freaking awesome!
It looks like a dragon is attacking the cat's wizard tower!
Thank you for sharing✌💛☺
I love editing touches like when the nail gun syncs to the music. Chefs kiss you two!
I love how at 11:23 the kitty turns into the dragon of the castle aka the king 😌
this is absolutely amazing btw!!!!
The only thing that stopped me from clicking on this video sooner was a clip of a baby mouse yawning. Also did you always had braces?! They look great on you! Braces people unite!:-)
We must have similar CZcams feed
@@notmyrealname1880 you also watched both amazing Nerdforge AND yawning mouse?!:D
@@danaondrackova3431 Yeah I did, haha! :D
was to mouse as cute as I imagine it to be? :3
Or... cuter. :O
@@meek4109 way cuter than you imagine.
Oh my God, you totally should do a follow up video where you weather the walls, it's gonna look sooooo cool!
You are so very blessed to be gifted with so much talent and intelligence! Very impressive! Amazing work. Many blessings.
Martina luring her cats with the snacks is literally me with my furry babies
Ok this is really cool. Looking at the castle with the cats in it and the dragon background makes them look like they have dragon wings 😂I would try to make a tree library for my cats but I dont really have anywhere to put it. What breed are the cats? The grey one looks like a Russian Blue.
Talk about a cat paradise! Lovely job for your fur babies! I am sure both will use it a lot! What a great side place to have in your work space so they can always be near you and comfortable. The design you came up with is wonderful too.♥️
Every King needs a castle.
Good times with scare time lapse music 😂
Is good times with scare related to grain by any chance?
feline The lord Cthulhu I don’t think so
I absolutely love this! Also very excited to lean about foam clay.
I missed the part where you made one side a hinged door so you can get a sick cat out of the tower to take it to the vet. Also to vacuum in there after the spring shedding.
I really liked how you cleaned up the edges of the windows with the clay, I totally would not have thought of that but it worked super well!
Martina is always so kind and sweet
I also love how artistic she is
And your cat actually use it, good, miracle XD
this is amazing, you are so talented and creative!
Kool Katsle! I made something similar in the 90s in the shape of saguaro cacti which ran floor to ceiling with 3 arms complete with perches and covered in green carpet. I called them "Catti" or "Cat Cacti" ! Built and installed to certain customers as a side job.
The tower/castle looks AMAZING!!! You never cease to impress
At 11:22 it looks like your cat has dragon wings because of the background. A dragon-winged cat on a castle/wizard tower with a fantasy landscape behind her. Very epic 👌🏻
My god! the background and the castle fits so well!! It's so beautiful
This is gorgeous! My cats would love it ✨✨🐈🐈
The kitties are ADORABLE!!!! 😻 😻 😻 😻 😻 😻 😻
This tower is called
Tower of Wizard Cat
😁💗
Either that or a CATstel...
so I'll see myself out.😃
Of ALL crafting channels, you’re the most inspiring!!! Love the videos!
I would love something like this!! Like a whole castle though! I hope this concept gets built upon!
6:22 IT LOOKS SO COOL WITH THE DRAGON IN THE BACKGROUND
That looks awesome!!! I have to try this with my cats!
That's so awesome. Wish I could make one for my cats. My boy Odin would love it.
wow this is amazing! The cats are soooo cute!
You guys are just incredible!
that is awesome with that wall painting behind it . Great job , your cats are lucky.
Your works are always so inspiring! Thank you❤⭐
Love this! Awesome job you guys😍😊👍🏻👍🏻
It looks amazing!! I love it.
Now that is a majestic cat castle! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful tower and I love the kitties. But I found myself wanting the coffee mug and hoodies you guys have. I hope that's new merch coming and I haven't missed it XD
You guys are amazing, thank you for the great watch. Would love to see you guys build something (Maybe with lights ;) in that beautiful garden outside.
THATS SO COOL!
I love the wizards tower, You did amazing work on it. Your so talented.
