I got a idea what about a rogue idol they are giant golems made by orks if remember correctly
I will take a look =)
Just looked and they are awesome, I will be making one =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist I will be looking forward to it
This channel is some of the best shit on RUclips. Just a cheerful guy showing you how to do cool stuff with your models. Borderline heart-warming, keep up the good work man.
Thank you so much for your kind words =)
In times of huge plastik waste on the plantet you are the guy that shows what nice stuff someone can make out of "waste". Keep up the awesome work!!
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.
so much stuff i would have never thought of
Cool and there will be lots more coming =)
I've been waiting for more sprue terrain videos, and then this drops on my birthday!? Cheers, looking forward for the video!
Happy Birthday, more sprue terrain coming soon =)
Happy birthday!
¡Feliz cumpleaños!
Wszystkiego najlepszego!
Alles Gute!
Ive been using sprues to liven up my bases, the crystals are my favorite, my girlfriend loves making candles and sticks of dynamite. Your creativity is a gift and has caused me to spend more time converting my models and bases with things that I would have ignored before, thank you!
Thats great to hear, its great that you both enjoy the hobby =)
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 am amazed with what you can do with sprues. I really love that buttered look of the shipping containers. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Found your channel today love what your doing! I hate the thought of wasting all that plastic. Definitely going to make some stuff with this! Any chance if you showing how you made the corrugated steel mould?
Exactly my question, too.
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!
That sounds awesome, sprues are great to carve into what ever is needed =)
I was familiar with sprue goo already, but to use it for entire projects rather than to mend little gaps is mindblowing. Fantastic stuff!
I have to agree; I would not have thought to make it up to a thick paste consistency rather than the gap-filling consistency I've always seen it made to, and then used as raw material to roll out 'new' plastic sheeting.
Can't wait! Looking forward to the premiere, you can count on me to be there! I think..
Anyway, great use of sprues!
Cheers bud, hope to see you later =)
Would definitely be cool to see you do something that needs to look alot neater than ork tek, like an imperial/space marine tank or maybe one of the titans.
Think of it as a challenge :D
Terrain is always cool tho, could maybe look at making equivalents to some of GW's kits?
Awesome video, love to see how you create the container sides, I have been using cardboard boxes to make containers, but where I am here in Oz we have a mice plague, have to throw some of my terrains away, now your containers, suit my Catachan jungle with damaged and aged, rusted Containers, can't wait for more video's cheers from DownUnder.
Cheers bud, a mice plague, it will be zombies next after the year we have all had lol. Turn those sprues into something awesome =)
I cant believe you just turned those sprues into nutella! absolutely mind blown, what an incredible use of chemistry, cheers for this
I kind of feel bad that you can't afford a PO box, let's hope a brighter future is in store for you
Dont feel bad, I have a tonne of sprues to keep me going for a while and fingers crossed work will pick up again =)
Wow….as a modeller of 40plus years I now wish I’d kept sprues !!! Awesome for scratchbuilding - cheers
You are one of my all time favorite Artists.
So freakin cool.
Thank you so much =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist Just sent you a tip on paypal. Keep up the excellent work my friend!
@@theQiwiMan Thats very kind of you, thank you. Im pleased you like my videos =)
Truly inspirational, sprue users should take note. Have you tried silicone mould? I've got some of those funky ice cube trays. Thought about using dregs from the resin bottles to see they come out, but Oowey Spruey Gooey might also work.
Just wondering where You have been been glad you are back building stuff
Ive not been anywhere, maybe you are not getting the notifications of my new videos
These came out soo well.. and I love how rough they look, as they feel like they belong more in a war-torn environment than if they had been smooth and perfect
Thank you =)
Supersmart way to reuse sprues ! And fun,and creative,and ...
Some kind of weird mutant like the big thing in stranger things might be cool to make with ooey gooey stuff
Yup that would work well =)
I know it sounds crazy but you can actually sand superglue off your fingers. You don’t even feel it and it comes right off.
(This looks awesome and your voice is so nice and cheerful to me I love your videos)
Yeah I hate using super glue and Im pleased you like my videos =)
oh, the nailpolish remover you use can be used to clean the superglue tip and to remove it from your fingers
Good stuff left right and center. Always good to have plans with how to deal with sprues.
Yup and its good to recycle =)
I love the ingenuity of this!
You are actually a genius.
Necromunda terrain would be cool, these look great, I may now try and make these myself!
hahaha, I'm sorry my technique didn't work. Yeah the plastic is gonna melt.
Man. You are a genious! You have to earn the Nobel-Price!
This is amazing they look really professional
Great video, Im gonna start saving my spruces and try this myslef.
Thank you, sprues are pretty cool =)
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
I just found your channel, and I am a fan now! I am considering trying to mold the goo, too.
One vid and I'm suddenly addicted
A unbelievably awesome build! You have definately created a new art form! Love it!
Thank you so much =)
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.
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!
I do the same but use hair spray. Never though of water!
I've recently learned and tried the salt chipping method, it works great. Though next time I want to splatter some oranges and browns on my base coat of rust before doing the chipping and main colors.
I just picked up a few comissions and now Ive got a ton of sprue left over, was just about to visit yer tutorial on how to make the gooey stuff and this popped up.
Im ok with that.
Awesome, turn them sprues into something Awesome =)
Love your builds and your style. One of the RUclips greats!
thank you so much =)
Do try some chaos knights. An imperial knight corrupted by Nurgle should come out great when made with sprues!
Yup Nurgle everything =)
what about roads? Seems like the perfect medium to build them in.
I like the Star Waaahs. I think an orky pod racer would be a fun build, or maybe a death star or AT-AT. Full sprue picnic complete with sprue picnic basket to go with the burger? Make what you enjoy and we will keep enjoying the videos
I am currently making an ork pod racer which will be out on may 4th =)
This is pure terrain awesomeness, if anyone playing 40K ever buys the containers from GW, they're daft.. this is PERFECT !
Cheers bud, I might have to take a look at the GW ones =)
awesome as always
Thank you =)
Love the recycling/DIY spirit of this channel. I'm mildly concerned about the health risks associated with melting plastic with acetone.
Should be fine working with it in a well ventilated space, or alternatively a P3 half / full face mask could be used, although that might be overkill for essentially nail polish remover. Still, there's nothing wrong with being cautious with these things...
@@viper9x I mean lets be honest we play with some pretty nasty stuff in our hobby that probably isn't good for our health
Would love to see some tyranid terrain done like this
Awesome job!
Thank you =)
Do corpse girnder cult there something u might like
Never heard of it but will take a look =)
Brilliant
Another awesome build, was considering using Aluminium soda cans or coffee pots as a possible sheet material for making containers with, but sprues look like a much safer alternative :) I was wondering if there was a maximum time you can leave the sprues in the acetone before the material is unrecoverable?
Great tutorial and build, I'll have to build some of these for gaslands.
I’ve already accumulated way too many spruces. I gotta work on some of these once I get my army painted up.
I'm an avid painter and collector over here in the US and I have like, 5 laundry baskets packed with sprues lmao. Trying to sprue glue and use as much as I can but school and work is making it hard for me to get to the laborious task of cutting em down. If only we had a recycling program here in the US....
thats realy nice wow
Dude. You're kind of a genius with Ork/Nurgle stuff and asthetic, but nobody, not even crafter God Wyloch touches the Drucharii. While I look forward to your results, because it is cool to retry something after improving your skills and seeing how you've improved, all the good crafters like yourself and their mom has a great unclean one. NOOOBODY has even attempted Sla'anesh. Nobody has even tried...
Just sayin'.
That acetone-sprue goo, how does it work when used as gap filler? Seems like it might take longer to cure than green stuff but you don't have to knead it and then get mad you made too much for the job at hand.
Edit: Nevermind! You answered my question like 5 minutes later!
Excellent work. As you said about using it as a filler. Almost can be as good as filler putty.
I'm curious. In the glass container. Is it 100% acetone? Or slightly diluted?
I’d love to know if the goo can be used in silicone molds. I don’t see why not but like imagine the possibilities right? For instance for those who do CAD and 3D printing one could print out a castable positive thst one pours silicone onto to make a mold. Either an open face mold or halves of a mold you then assemble. 20 years ago I saw a photo demo some Japanese modeler did of this. Anyhow you could spoon in the goo and let it settle in and cure. Idk what kind of detail resolution you’d be able to get but it would be vastly cheaper than resin. The manufacturers of mold rubber, such as Smooth-On, have extremely good technical customer service btw. 3D printing aside, you can make a mold of anything not just a print. Also diorama supply folks like woodland scenics and others sell rubber molds of scale rock faces and architectural ornamentation. They’re intended for plaster but should work for this. You might want to ask about mold release grease for this too tho.
I know I'm late to the party, but this is a great video. I'm glad a found your channel and this video. This video is the reason I found out about sprue goo. But I have a question: how do you get it to cure/harden while still being able to get it off whatever surface it's sitting on? I've tried my hand at making a sheet or panel with the goo on wax paper so I don't make a mess, but it just sticks to it as it hardens. I may not be leaving it long enough, but I thought I'd ask. Once again, love your channel and look forward to watching more of your stuff!
They are awesome...
Well, you forced me to buy a rolling pin and a acetone.... and sneaking into fellow gamers homes to acquire nibbly nobby bits.....
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.
Excellent video. Its worth noting that undisolved “nibby nobbly bits” (my new favorite descriptor) hwve their own uses for terrain building
Hey just wanted to say that I have been watching your channel off and on for the past few years and you have really inspired me to use old sprues for structures and terrain. However in my exploits of trying to work with the sprues stuff if you had any advice on how to get more of the bubbles out before the mold is set? I have literally followed some of your videos step by step and I can never get a decent mold out of the sprues stuff. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!!!! Thanks
you should make the gap fill look like a bad weld
Yup it would look good =)
Thanks for being an inspiration !! really love your work and really helped me in my hobby journey !! :)
Wow.. That's such a good idea to use Al those throw away frames... The possibilities are endless.. Does the acetone melt all types of plastics?
I live in a one bed room apartment/flat and have been getting into the hobby. Got myself some sprues and been wanting to do stuff with them so i don't make more clutter. Was inspired by earlier videos to make terrain pieces and just seeing how you do this so masterfully is awesome!! Looking forward to future vids!!
You have been a source of inspiration and positivity ever since I found your channel, thank you! I look forward to seeing all of the awesome things you create using a mix of sprue, glue, and ooey gooey spruey stuff!
1:00 I think you will receive even MORE sprues from the nibbly nobbly community during May...
I love these videos and I think it's great you commit to one video a week. It builds up so much expectation!
Cheers from Argentina!
Thank you, its a fun hobby and I like trying new things out =)
New to the hobby amd it might be sacrilege but I prime still on the sprue, would that still work for sprue goo or do I have to strip them first?
I asked too late in the chat, so I'll repeat here. Can you turn the leftovers back into goo, or does it only work once?
PS: 330 views on the premiere, pretty good!
It works repeatedly, Im trying it myself and the polystyrene redissolves easily
I started to answer then got cut off lol, you can but Ive found when you re-melt it in acetone it doesnt get as gooey as the first time
@@MiniatureHobbyist could be the acetone being diluted? I've tended to add a little fresh acetone each time and it seemed to work OK on my end, though I've not used much 😅
@@RamblesWorkshop Thanks!
@@MiniatureHobbyist Thank you.
Oh me?
Yea, I'm okay.
Just thinking about all the sprues I've thrown away
Such an ingenious idea, you should do a timelapse video of the sprues melting in the acetone it looks fascinating! Kudos
Sorry for my English. I would like to tell you that your videos are great and I would like to know what is the liquid that you use to make the matrices soft
Amazing content as usual. Thank you good sir. Very useful am i definitely trying this for my army.
thank you, its a nice and simple build =)
Is there a video for the corrugated panels? I’ve looked through your videos but I can’t find it 😅.
This is awesome. You made a plastic Sourdough Starter lmao, love your work
melting the sprue is a Game Changer. Do I need to get a certain Kind of acetone?
does sprue goo press into a mold easily?
like in a silicon mold?
i have some molds in shapes id like to use to decorate something with, but i dont have resin, but i DO have a model ive been meaning to put together so ill have sprues
Never though of doing this fantastic idea which I am definitely going to apply
Could the melted sprue in the syringe be injected into a closed mould ? Or could the melted sprue just pressed or left to melt/fall into a mould?
Next time instead of a heat gun, maybe use a hair dryer but using pva sounds like an interesting idea for crackle paint
I like the reuse of the sprues. How toxic is this process? The acetone and melted plastic.
Wondering if they could be ground up and extruded into fdm filament…..
Can you try a space marine rhino (I don’t mind if it looks weathered or has bullet holes)
Rust, hairspray, paint, rough wet brush = best rust effects :).
Id like to see an ork mek gun from 40k. Those models are so expensive from gw '-'
Okies I will take a look at one =)
As someone about to have many sprews. This sounds very useful.
im new to your videos , but i totally love your ideas. now i want to built stuff of of the plastic rests as well. would you please tell me what you fill those glases up with?
I live you i decided to never trow sprues out again and maybe i will make a tank an a dio from the sprueas of that kit
I love these videos and that youtube recommends them to me. Always gives me the urge to make something :D
Is there any limit on how long you can keep the sprue stuff in the acetone?
I'd love to see you try build something for fantasy orks
Should of used a hair drier not so much directed heat.. but cold idea anyway.
Hello, what kind of solvent do you use for casting?
Man them panels for Gorka bases or Future waseland terrain.
