Nice one getting back to an old project and see it through. I am just starting out and of course went out and spent 700 bucks first trip to hobby store. Its been 4 mos and i have finish 4 projects...small projects but i got better on each build by watching yours and others youtube videos. Thank you for inspiring us all bro!!!
Loot does excellent work and has just started a separate project with sci-fi characters, creatures and terrain! But they'd look a bit lonely without your wonderful terrain to inhabit.
Heeyyyyy thank you so much you guys and for taking the time out of your crazy schedule to stop by and watch and comment! Really, means a lot.😊 And yeah, would absolutely LOVE to see you're take on something like this!!
This project was A REFERENCE for us all making fantasy terrain! Those techniques and your attention to the details inspired me so much! Thanks for sharing this final chapter, I feel like now the circle is complete. THANK YOU!
That's it. This right here is the inspiration I've been looking for. While there are many cool crafts out there, this one goes beyond simply cool and ticks all my boxes. Atmospheric low-fantasy looking color palette? Check. Charming irregular shingles? Check. Cozy windows one could sit in front of while lecturing four hobbits on the Ringwraiths and being 100% badass? Check. Incredible woodwork around the doors and windows? Check. Reasonably small size instead of huge 5-inch ceilings? Check. Baldur's Gate reference in the mix? Check. This is incredible. Thank you very much for sharing this!
I agree with you whole heartedly, this work is inspired and amazing. Although I’d be lying if I said I didn’t cringe a little when I saw the vice and hammer on the granite benchtop 😨
It looks really good. Doesn't matter if it took 3.5 years - you didn't have the skills and vision when you started, but you DID start and thus committed yourself to complete it when you knew enough to do it justice Congratulations, Sir. Be proud
I remember being really amazed at the tavern build project, can't believe it's been so long since you had started it. Good on you for going back to it!
Neil, amazing work!! So glad you went back and finished this. Everything happens at the right time. You should be extremely proud at this wonderful accomplishment. It’s unbelievable.
@@RealTerrainHobbies we all need more of that in our lives 😆 it’s funny, the rolls are reversed in my household. I’m the one hiding epoxy spills on the carpet or scratches on the table 😂😅
@@RealTerrainHobbies exactly ... one would change into one's clothes in the locker room, no washrooms, toilets, money would be exchanged for the payment of the Middle Ages, and prices would be as they used to be, maybe prices would be low or affordable so that the tavern would not go bankrupt, but tourism, and Traffic would always be 100% or more every day.
Gorgeous tavern! So I came here looking for inspiration for my first building. I’m thinking I’ll start with just a playable first floor. But I can always add more floors and a roof later! When you were doing the plaster walls I got the idea to put the plaster in a squeeze bottle or cake decorating bag. I think that would make those fiddley bits easier.
Is not a bad thing you were not the 'youtuber' you are now. How this project started made me start this hobby in the first place. Fact is, you're still an amazing artist.
Wow. This was WAY more detailed and realistic than I would ever have tried. - For shingles, I use food box cardboard cut into individual shingles, and use a bad brush to apply texture paste to get the wood grain. The big 'trick' for the shingling is to run a course of half-length shingles on the bottom edge of the roof to give the bottom course of full-size shingles the right profile. This is a trick I got from someone who actually roofed with cedar shingles. Oh, and for where two roof planes meet in a valley, I first put down a full-length folded piece of the cardboard, to later paint as corroded copper, or oxidized lead. This is also something done on real cedar or slate shingled roofs.
Just come back from a holiday and I subscribe to over 40 RUclips channels so you can imagine I have a LOT of vids to catch up on. I have to confess to skipping through some of them and some I didn't even look at then I came to this vid. I am a tank modeller, world war II in particular, but I also like diorama modelling vids and that is how I came to subscribe to RTH. I started to watch thinking it's not too long see how it goes... OMG ! the patience you have to make a model in such detail amazes me. This is brilliant work and I am so glad I didn't skip over it. Looking forward to the next one that I will definitely NOT skip over. Stay safe friend!
I did a 7 floor (each floor removable and playable) castle keep, so yea I feel your pain lol. Your build came out beautifully and I loved watching every min of it.
I know this project took a long time, but the effort was NOT wasted! That is the most beautiful tavern I have ever seen!! (Love the Baldur’s Gate music at the end)!
The baulders gate music for the tavern was the chiefs kiss on that! I don't know why youtube suggested you to me, but i am very happy it did! Incredible effort and result! I would love to play in a dnd campaign that I could go there :D
Just got round to watching this. Great video, great piece, and impressive (and appreciated) candidness. Enjoyed this a lot. I feel like I've burned out on loads of projects, and none so complex as this.
Oh, Neil, my terrain journey was also overshadowed with going for way too complex project (Hagrid's hut diorama actually) in the very beginning. But just as you did, I still managed to find resources (thanks to the YT crafters' wonderful community and my girlfriend's support) to finish that abandoned project. Despite some scale and other small mistakes, it came out supercool overall! I'm so proud of myself that I accomplished this task and didn't give up. That's the most rewarding thing ever.
This is my favourite of all your projects and I was pleased to see it finally finished! What I love most is that it is entirely your own work and your own ingenuity , and doesn’t rely on 3D printed parts or store-bought embellishments. Great work! 🙂
Hey, at least you tackled that ambitious project right away instead of me, browsing youtube and online stores to find the supplies that make me a better painter, just procrastinating from actually painting minis
That is just gorgeous. Your window idea is inspiring, I want to make a whole sheet and see if I could neatly cut out as needed. Heck, it would go far to making 3d printed houses look 100% better.
dud what is this production quality. the edits, the slow paning camera time-lapse, insane. great job! and then the actual project itself. even crazier. I mean REAL METTAL! come on that's the best thing ever. you have blown my mind. and this is only the first video I watch by you. can't wait to get to see the rest! amazing work!
Good for you for going back and finishing the “old” and the 😟 dreaded. I have a few projects like that boxed still bc of a move and I have used every excuse for oh the past few years not to finish…if a talented miniaturist and creator can take a step back in time…maybe in the near future I should too. Awesome project!!! It’s so realistic. You did incredible and oh the patience lol. It’s got to feel good to have this done.
When you started talking about why you Shelved the project I was like "oh, this is exactly like my FIRST project ever" XD. I actually started modelling because I saw your videos! thanks for getting me into one of my favorite things ever, MODELING! Also Super Awesome to finally see this one come off the shelf in the back of your videos and BE the actual video lol. It looks great!
Syringe next time you want to put plaster of Paris on walls of a tipped-over model. If need be, syringe with some flexible tubing connected to it to “pump” the plaster into the cavity you’re trying to fill. Then just flush the syringe and tubing with some water
This has got to be the most cool and realistic looking medieval house I've seen. Beautiful. It's like straight from lord of the rings or something. Amazing!
Absolutely fantastic!! A wonderful and unique castle. Great respect for this brilliant achievement. I've watched these videos many times and can't get enough of them. Best Regads Chris
Excellent! I had thought I'd missed the final episode on this. Instead it was just aging like fine cheese. I probably wouldn't use the same techniques you used on this, but there is no denying the final product. Great job.

Well done!
Good that you didn't gave up ;)
You have forgotten something: you have children.
Next time, make them make the shingles.
Wow, that's pretty awesome
This looks sooooooooo gooooood dude! Have wanted to do a similar project for so long, so taking a lot of inspiration from this!
Heeyyyyy thank you so much you guys and for taking the time out of your crazy schedule to stop by and watch and comment! Really, means a lot.😊 And yeah, would absolutely LOVE to see you're take on something like this!!
I didn't know you watched him too! I'm subscribed to both of you!
I yelped "MARTINA IS HERE" when I randomly found this guy and scrolled into the comments :D
Of course Martina is here for this.
SKJERA BAGERA!
This project was A REFERENCE for us all making fantasy terrain! Those techniques and your attention to the details inspired me so much! Thanks for sharing this final chapter, I feel like now the circle is complete. THANK YOU!
Thanks man, really very much appreciated :)
@@RealTerrainHobbies hugs from Italy 🇮🇹🤗😉
being reminded of your old tavern build has the same feeling as opening an old box and finding a mini you've not seen for 10 years and used to love
Awe great comment. 🥰
Deep House Blacksmith Techno
Awe yeahhhh 😎
@@RealTerrainHobbies Great music! Who's it by?
@@BackwoodsGruff the last song is scoobadive - Spin Doctor
Glad to see the tavern finally finished! I counted "ahead" 62 times.
If nothing else, the Baldur's Gate sound bites at the end make this perfect.
Remember the old paper cut outs lol
To this day I still build all my buildings, land marks, etc out of card board and craft paper. Love it all
That's it. This right here is the inspiration I've been looking for. While there are many cool crafts out there, this one goes beyond simply cool and ticks all my boxes.
Atmospheric low-fantasy looking color palette? Check.
Charming irregular shingles? Check.
Cozy windows one could sit in front of while lecturing four hobbits on the Ringwraiths and being 100% badass? Check.
Incredible woodwork around the doors and windows? Check.
Reasonably small size instead of huge 5-inch ceilings? Check.
Baldur's Gate reference in the mix? Check.
This is incredible. Thank you very much for sharing this!
I really appreciate someone who can go AHEAD and make fun of themselves but you took it a step further and made a contest with it
Love how it turned out. The windows are perfect and blacksmithing the door hardware was genius and added that distinct RTH touch. Spectacular!
I agree with you whole heartedly, this work is inspired and amazing. Although I’d be lying if I said I didn’t cringe a little when I saw the vice and hammer on the granite benchtop 😨
Wow! Layers upon layers of Awesomeness!
It looks really good.
Doesn't matter if it took 3.5 years - you didn't have the skills and vision when you started, but you DID start and thus committed yourself to complete it when you knew enough to do it justice
Congratulations, Sir.
Be proud
I remember being really amazed at the tavern build project, can't believe it's been so long since you had started it. Good on you for going back to it!
Yeah I remember this was the first video I watched on this channel and it got me to subscribe. I refuse to believe that was 3 1/2 years ago.
haha that's so awesome. Really cool to see who's been around since that video. And yeah man, time flies!
When do you ever work a simple project? You are a sign of a true perfectionist, and you do incredible work.
Neil, amazing work!! So glad you went back and finished this. Everything happens at the right time. You should be extremely proud at this wonderful accomplishment. It’s unbelievable.
Thank you Ted. Really appreciate that my friend. :)
Absolute master class my friend!!!
Lmao. I really enjoyed the black smithing part. Was hoping your wife would walk by and be like”…what the 🧐….🤷🏻♀️”
haha Yes, I was having a bit too much fun with that lol :D
@@RealTerrainHobbies we all need more of that in our lives 😆 it’s funny, the rolls are reversed in my household. I’m the one hiding epoxy spills on the carpet or scratches on the table 😂😅
I cheered when you grabbed the pencil holder. The leaded look is really dotting the i!
In such a tavern, I would go for goulash, roast and beer every day. Fireplace, medieval music, medieval bed, just without wifi, jukebox, ...
You are my kind of guy. I would happily join you on such an endeavor🍻☺
@@RealTerrainHobbies exactly ... one would change into one's clothes in the locker room, no washrooms, toilets, money would be exchanged for the payment of the Middle Ages, and prices would be as they used to be, maybe prices would be low or affordable so that the tavern would not go bankrupt, but tourism, and Traffic would always be 100% or more every day.
Baldur's Gate Inn music; fantastic! Spent almost as many hours playing that as you did making those shingles.
How fitting, I watched this video ages ago when I originally found this channel and now it's the first one I come back to!
It's super helpful to hear these kinda stories. I find myself in this situation alllllll the time...
Don't be hard on yourself. It's great work.
I have projects stored in my shed for over ten years. And i didn't even film it. You do an awesome job!
The base was the furst video i watched from u so im watching you almost 4 years thats crazy
Gorgeous tavern!

I love the Old Bulder's Gate 1 shout out at the end.
"Is clean as an Elvern's ars!" Miss that game. XD
Neil, your channel along with Luke Towan's are the best channels on the platform!
This is the fine wine made from the grape juice 😉
It just needed time to mature
Is not a bad thing you were not the 'youtuber' you are now. How this project started made me start this hobby in the first place. Fact is, you're still an amazing artist.
This is the kind of work my a level art teacher expects from me in a month
This really looks like a miniature that you could use in a movie and trick the viewer into thinking it is a real building.
Wow. This was WAY more detailed and realistic than I would ever have tried.

I keep reading your channel's name 'Real terrain hobbits'... Incredible work!
You are a total madman. Period. Just starting on a project like that is insane, and to be able to finish it… Hats of man.
Definitely reminds me of the homes on Fable 2, great job man 👍🏼
I remember watching the 1st video lol.... it looks fantastic, worth the wait :)
The epoxy window technique is beautiful!
Everything about this is simply awesome, you've nailed the medieval look and the camera work is impeccable!
I did a 7 floor (each floor removable and playable) castle keep, so yea I feel your pain lol. Your build came out beautifully and I loved watching every min of it.
No wonder you've procrastinated for so long, the quality of detail is INSANE! I'm actually surprised, you didn't stonewall the walls...
That tavern was the first video of yours I watched! Love your channel!
I know this project took a long time, but the effort was NOT wasted! That is the most beautiful tavern I have ever seen!! (Love the Baldur’s Gate music at the end)!
Thank you so much. You're too too kind :)❤️
I agree
Go ahead-56 times.
The baulders gate music for the tavern was the chiefs kiss on that! I don't know why youtube suggested you to me, but i am very happy it did! Incredible effort and result! I would love to play in a dnd campaign that I could go there :D
It’s been so long that I thought this was RUclips suggesting an old video. Looks amazing!
Awesome. Unbeliveable. Stunning. Breathtaking. Amazing. My english is just not enough to tell how impressed I am. And envious... 😀
Just got round to watching this. Great video, great piece, and impressive (and appreciated) candidness. Enjoyed this a lot. I feel like I've burned out on loads of projects, and none so complex as this.
What have I found!!! An adorable and funny man who likes to build beautifully accurate tiny things😳 I'm in!
Oh, Neil, my terrain journey was also overshadowed with going for way too complex project (Hagrid's hut diorama actually) in the very beginning.

That is THE BEST scratch built tavern/inn/house that I have ever seen. I can understand burn out when taking on that level of project. Awesome job!
Good to see this project finally finished.
That's some dedication right there 👏. Looks amazing 👍💯
This is my favourite of all your projects and I was pleased to see it finally finished! What I love most is that it is entirely your own work and your own ingenuity , and doesn’t rely on 3D printed parts or store-bought embellishments. Great work! 🙂
Yes, I lake this too!
Just rewatched these old videos again
gave it a like for that sweet hammer flip shot
Ahhhh Baldur’s Gate call back, love it!
Epic!!!!!! Mine has been sitting on the shelf for a year. Going to finish it now awesome! Gonna get some merch too. God speed out there
Have you considered using used coffee grounds as a texturing medium. That's my next experiment. Michael
Nice to see this one through Neil… great job.
Hey thanks man :)
Great! Yours is the first channel that I have seen creating interiors.
LETSSSS GOOOOO , YOU FINALY DID IT. im so proud of you
The little bit of game audio at the end is utterly delightful. Just remember "You must gather your part before venturing forth".
Croly hap! Actual hammering of heated metal to make tiny hinges!
We all defer, deferentially.
Came here for the miniature, which is amazing, and found an incredibly filmed video. 👏
Thank you very much! :)
the Baldursgate tavern sound at the end it's a finesse
Great work sticking to it and finishing the project! It’s never easy once you’ve put something aside. Congratulations!
Hey, at least you tackled that ambitious project right away instead of me, browsing youtube and online stores to find the supplies that make me a better painter, just procrastinating from actually painting minis
That hammer transition was amazing!
That is just gorgeous. Your window idea is inspiring, I want to make a whole sheet and see if I could neatly cut out as needed. Heck, it would go far to making 3d printed houses look 100% better.
I've waited 4- no, 5 thousand years for this!
Also I'll have to steal that pencil holder trick.
I watched the old video and remember you doing the stairs, fire place, and the walls.
I am glad to see your making a video coming back to the tavern.
So glad to see you finish this. I discovered and subscribed to your channel because of the original videos.
Amazing throwback to BG and BG2
Holy crap Barman! That is _awesome_ !
Love the sounds at the end from the Candlekeep Inn and old racist Winthrop. Excellent build!
Awesome build. The black smith surprise is an amazing detail. It's good to see this project being finished. And wow, how it turned out.
Thanks Julian, and glad you liked the black smithing there. Hope it was a good educational experience for you!
Cricut maker can cut balsa wood to a certain thickness. Perfect for the floor boards. Maybe look into it? Perfect for cutting repetitive pieces 😁
My count of how many times RTH said the word "Ahead."
61 times! That's quite a lot!
dud what is this production quality. the edits, the slow paning camera time-lapse, insane. great job! and then the actual project itself. even crazier. I mean REAL METTAL! come on that's the best thing ever. you have blown my mind. and this is only the first video I watch by you. can't wait to get to see the rest! amazing work!
LOVE the BG reference in the outro.
Good for you for going back and finishing the “old” and the 😟 dreaded.

This is why you dont throw away the old incomplete projects. Looks great :D
dude...its obviously you are a master of it and i think you are very enjoy at it, you have one new subscriber. its AMAZING
Watching at 5 am. Looking for videos to show my little one for later, was not prepared for the uplifting message of it’s okay to come back later.
1 step further could add tiny hole in back to feed smoke into chimney (mainly steam)

I never thought you would actually finish that!!
Awesome job! Totally understand the burnout thing. But thank you for taking this project back up.
Amazing build! Love the details. The video work is always fantastic. The music you use though always hooks me (Music Teacher…).
I love that I started watching this years ago and now got to see it finished. Awesome work!
wow, simply WOW! You sir are a master of your hobby craft!
Absolutely fantastic!! A wonderful and unique castle. Great respect for this brilliant achievement. I've watched these videos many times and can't get enough of them.
