Thank you :D Your comment is appreciated!!

Aww thank you so much :D

Thank you for your comment :D I hope you have a great day!

Hey! Thanks so much for your comment :D I hope you’ll stick around to check out the upcoming videos! What kinds of minis are you building?

@@d20crafts47 I just got into scratch minis two weeks ago and I’ve been obsessed, im making a ork pyramid. The lord is they like it and stole it and with ork magic transported it through the galaxy.

@@d20crafts47 because I’m legally blind I have to work big so I’m looking to build the biggest miniature armatures I can. I’ve made a little epoxy dude as a concept

@@FranktheBlindArtist Oh wow that sounds pretty cool! Is that related to Warhammer or something you made up yourself?

@@FranktheBlindArtist Thats really awesome Frank!! One idea I had for you for armatures- if paperclips are too small for your scale you could always try unwrapping one of those old wire clothing hangers if you have some! I’ve had great luck finding some people were getting rid of and have used them for armature wire before. They’re pretty easy to unwrap with pliers! Happy crafting my friend :D

Thanks so much :D

Every new miniature I make is hopefully becoming incrementally less wonky looking 😅 Thanks so much for taking the time to watch my videos and comment!! Much gratitude 🤝

Thanks again my friend, I am so glad to have been able to share my passion projects with you!

Wow thank you so much for your thoughtful comment :D None of this video making stuff came easy to me and editing videos takes me a silly amount of time haha so its really hear when someone found my videos and also enjoyed them!! Your comment really made my day- thanks so much. I’m excited to be almost done with my next mini project/video, so I hope you’ll stay tuned!

Thank you! Faint praise, and yet it thunders in my ears 😄 hahaha

Thanks so much :D I really appreciate your comment! I’m glad to have you along for the journey!

I think that way would be more secure probably, but more work than I was willing to do 😂 Btw I hope you’ll stick around for my upcoming videos! I’ll give you a shoutout in the outro like I’ve been doing for the kind people who give me feedback on my videos ^__^ I really appreciate your comments camkitty!

Aw thats awesome, I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed my videos and they reminded you of a fond memory! I think those fairy houses people make are so cool! And yes it is a goal of mine to make these things as approachable/noob-friendly as possible because I also find so many crafters on youtube way too advanced for me 😂

Thank you so much for your comment and compliment! I love trying to use stuff that was going to end up in the trash or recycling whenever I can!

Thanks so much! I am hoping to keep it up until I can make great looking minis, and then I won’t feel compelled to buy or print any 😅 I hope you’ll stick around for the journy!

I really appreciate your comment! Thanks :D If you think he is cool, you should check out my more recent minis! I actually gave them ears and hair 😂

Hahaha thank you 👴 his tunic was made from the finest recycling bin scrap paper in all the land

Hey Keith, thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I’m having a rough day and this put a smile on my face :D I hope you’ll stick around for new upcoming videos! Planning to start posting much more often this summer

@@d20crafts47 Awesome, dude! Keep your chin up, keep the smile on! Definitely looking forward to some more crafting when you have some time.

@@KeithK469 I really appreciate it my dude!! 🙏

Hahahaha 🤣 thanks for the laugh! It’s true- the green shirt beardy man definitely could pass as a hobo/beggar! Thank you for your comment!

@@d20crafts47 he's the conjure of spare change. 😂

@@somethingfunny666 hahahaha if he was a halfling I could call him Hobo Baggins 🤣 I need to get your joke titles on my Barb and Barbarian minis hahahaha you have a knack for it!

@@d20crafts47 Michael Dangelow aka Magic Mike for the bard. He always paints. I'll need a bit of time for the barbarian

@@somethingfunny666 hahaha I thought the bard came out looking more like Van Gough myself. Looking forward to more of your names my friend 😂

Aw thank you so much ^__^ I really appreciate your comment! I hope you’ll stick around and subscribe- I am working on my miniatures for my next video now!

Phenomenal effort and an amazing effect.

@@somethingfunny666 wow thank you so much :D I really appreciate that! If you like this you’ll probably enjoy my upcoming homebrew miniatures in my next video!

Yeah I noticed I can kind of overcome poor sculpting with better painting 😂 like with painting eyes that aren’t really sculpted at all hahaha

Thanks so much for your thoughtful comment :D tbh Rocket and Lulu are always the star of the show! I hope you’ll stick around for new videos :)

Thanks so much :D I appreciate it!

Hahaha I take that as a big compliment 😅 What toys were you able to use as NPCs?

@@d20crafts47 haply meal marvel figures mostly.

@@WillACarpenter ooh cool! I haven’t seen those ones yet. But yeah these ones are so fun to make! Hope you’ll check the full video out :D

Thanks for your comment :D

I would have to agree on efficiency but disagree on cost. Myself and most of my friends who play d&d live in tiny loft apartments with no spare space to set up a 3d printer, let alone ventillating it so the apartment isnt full of fumes. Rent is so high now that having sufficient space for a printer would end up being super expensive. Affordability is definitely subjective and relative.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful comment :) That is a totally fair point, and in fact my closest friends actually gifted me a resin printer for that exact reason 😂 However I haven’t ended up getting it set up yet because I don’t really have space to have a dedicated printing area (was going to use my basement, but now my basement floods every time it rains so the humidity probably would impact prints) and I had some concerns about the resin fumes potentially impacting my own or my cats health. I work in health care and have already seen 2 patients complain about respiratory issues related to 3D printing so I am a little cautious about it. If I had a garage I could ventilate or set up a vent tent like this one (www.asianjoyco.com/resources-tutorials/ventilation-upgrades-for-3d-resin-printing) I would totally be printing more. Plus so many of the cool STL files I really would love to print are in bundles I’d have to pay for, which is another cost I consider. But I also just enjoy the sculpting process and my D&D crew get so excited when I sculpt them minis, so thats the other big reason I do it. This is how I made miniatures long before the time of 3D printing when I was but a mere middleschooler with no income hahaha Are you into 3D printing? Do you do anything to reduce fumes/is that a concern of yours?

​@d20crafts47 yes, you can make a container that encloses the printer, ventilates fumes directly to the outside, and lets you use the printer in pretty much any room with an opening window. I made mine with sheets of acrylic, silicone sealant for a gasket, a couple of computer fans, and flexible duct tubing. The fans pull in air through any gaps and circulates it through the tubing directly outside. I also eventually found a casement window seal that works with the tubing. Besides that, a respirator and gloves when handling any uncured resin are always recommended.

@@libraryproject2007 cool, I appreciate all the helpful info! That is the kind of process I should look for a tutorial on 😅 the link I shared was what I was planning to do for prioritizing safety but it is definitely not a cheap option. Your method seems like it might be a bit more affordable. Maybe I’ll try something like that when I have more space to dedicate to it!

That’s awesome! Glad I could share a worthwhile idea :D

Aww thank you 😄

Hello! I’m sure you could do that, but I honestly think it would be quite a bit more expensive. If you have a dollar store (dollartree, dollarama, dollar general, etc.) where you live they have several options usually!

Thank's for the reply!@@d20crafts47, Living on a remote island without a dollar store and cheap access to length wire, I could get one by length, your videos are inspiring an awesome for people who want to learn to sculpt and stay in budget, keep up the good work!

Henry, thank you again for the thoughtful comment!! Greatly appreciated :) More videos coming soon! I have the next 2 projects done, but I am the world’s slowest video editor because I keep wanting to start new projects instead 😅

Wow your comment made my day!! Thank you so much for the thoughtful message. I agree and that was my exact thought with creating these- its a super affordable option for miniatures that are super rare and expensive to actually purchase (generic NPCs). I also found that batching them saved a lot of time, and next time I would probably do like 10 or 12 at a time if quality/detail wasn’t the top priority. I am really glad you found my video and enjoyed it. Glad to have you along for the journey my friend :D

I appreciate your comment! hahaha yeah… it was my first video and I was paranoid about copyright infringement stuff, so that music you hear in this video is actually original music I wrote and recorded on guitar 😅 I used it because I knew no one could copyright claim it since its my own music, but I cringe a bit listening to it now in the context of this video. I hope you’ll check out my more recent content, I think the music is much less distracting hahaha ^__^

​@@d20crafts47I think it's really nice LOL do you have more videos with your own songs? Neat video btw! Never thought about using paper clips

@@potatoes1640 Aw thank you so much! I really appreciate your comment! Yeah actually I end most of my videos with the same original song hahaha I was kinda using it as an outro theme song for this channel. But I haven’t posted the music anywhere- thats a side project thats been on the back burner for a while but I am hoping this summer to release some songs onto Spotify and RUclips :D I can keep you posted!

@@d20crafts47 Thanks! I'll go watch your other vids when I got time :D

Thank you so much for your comment :D I’m glad you enjoyed the video- I hope you’ll stick around for more upcoming videos! I would love your feedback on the minis I make!

@@d20crafts47 as a student when it comes to this craft, I'll do my best to help while I learn along side you.

Wow, what a thoughtful comment!! Thank you so much, that really means a lot to me. I am hoping to have my next video out in a week or two! Stay tuned my friend :D

Aw thank you I appreciate the feedback! Yeah my friends compared this guy to Quasimodo and Sid from Ice Age 🤣 but if a bard mini is needed, this guy does the trick 🤷‍♂ Thank you for the comments, I really appreciate it!!

@@d20crafts47 no problem!

Hahaha that’s how I got started with this 😅 but I keep going with it because I find it so relaxing!

@@d20crafts47 it's relaxing to watch

That’s awesome! I’m glad you enjoyed the video :D I hope you’ll stick around for upcoming videos!

@@d20crafts47 definitely, i have alot planned. Crafting based. The real minis are just too expensive for me

Wow thank you so much for your thoughtful and kind words! That made my day! I am currently chipping away at my next project (mini sculpts done, but need to paint them). I had moved all my crafting stuff to my basement a couple months ago, which then promptly flooded really badly 🤦‍♂ so I had been dealing with trying to rectify that in my free time, but excited to start cranking out more videos from my little crafting corner in the basement 👍 Thanks again for your comment and for the encouragement! It means so much! Hope you have an awesome day my friend!

Thanks so much for your thoughtful comment man :D I feel like they look a bit derpy but they get the job done hahaha I hope you’ll stick around for future uploads! I have a lot more projects in the works currently 😁 would love more feedback!

I really appreciate your comments OminousIllustrations 🙌

Hey! Thanks so much for your comment ^__^ Glad you found the video helpful! I hope you’ll stick around for future uploads :D

Hey! Thank you so much for your comment :D Glad you enjoyed the video! More similar content coming soon!

Hello! Thanks so much for your comment :D I am honestly not sure of the paperclip gauge, but I believe the other wire used was either 22 or 24 gauge. But I am not specific with that in my own crafting, even generic floral wire works great. And thanks for the tip! Yeah I love using dental tools! For my crafting purposed, the Cosclay is great but of course any polymer clay works! I just tend not to trust the durability of the ones with no flexibility if the piece has super thin areas like ankles/wrists/fingers, etc. I hope this info helped and I hope you’ll stick around my channel to check out newer content coming soon :) Happy crafting!

Hey! I’m so glad I appeared on your recommendations! I have no clue how that algorithm works but I’m glad its finally recommending the video I made 3 years ago 😅 Yeah sculpting is so much fun! I find it super relaxing. I hope you’ll stick around my channel! I’d love to get feedback on upcoming projects I’m making when I finally finish editing the videos for them! I perpetually have like 5 different projects going, so I get very distracted haha but hoping to get more content up soon! Thanks for your comment :D

Hey! Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment :D I totally agree, even my derpy looking peasant NPCs feel like they have a lot of character and it makes them more memorable to players I think. The old man I sculpted in my first peasant video was unexpectedly loved by my D&D crew and they protected him at all costs which I thought was hilarious because he was not significant to the story or anything. Yeah I’d love to see your minis! Not sure if you can private message pictures on here, but if you use snapchat I made a D20crafts one!

@@d20crafts47 I'll definitely send a few pics.

@@d20crafts47 sent.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I totally agree- I love the freedom of being able to make any type of miniature I want or my D&D party would like to see! I’m happy to have my minis look more DIY than professional because to me they always remind me of where I was in my life when I crafted them. I love the idea of making a warband! In my villager videos I always made several minis at a time and I hope to go more in that direction with newer builds! I have a lot of projects on the way, but I’ve had a few simultaneous setbacks that slowed my progress a bit (gas leak at home, got pretty sick for a bit, basement flooded, etc.). Hoping to be back to uploading soon, so I hope you’ll stick around!

Hey! Thanks so much for your thoughtful comment :D I put them in the oven and was pretty careful to keep the oven time short (less time than the directions recommended) because the clay was less than 1/4 inch thick and I thought the paperclips might heat up much faster than the clay and I thought it could scorch it. Thanks for subbing! I’m preparing my next videos now! Happy crafting my friend 👍

Hey! Thanks so much for your thoughtful comment and for checking out my videos!! 😃 Yeah whenever I pick up that box of 100 bases I imagine how much cooler future minis I make will be. I’m hoping to sculpt more often and increase my upload frequency in 2024! I am grateful to have you along for the journey 🙏
