  • For real small.
    This is one of the sets for an animated series I'm working on. It's Eugene's small engine repair shop. I've still got more work to do on it, but wanted to share a little about how I make these things. I hope you enjoy it!

    I wish there was a mega-like button cause I mega-loved this video Crafsman. I used to make miniatures when I was a kid. You helped remind the adult me that there’s still a little kid version inside that’s dying to make her own miniatures again!

      Thats actually not a bad idea.
      A "mega like" button you can only use once every 24hours.
      "Whats popular?"
      Well this video has a million likes, but this video has a million mega likes.

  • @biggafigure8575
    @biggafigure8575 5 лет назад +94

    There’s almost too much realism! When I watched this I was transported to the late 1980’s only there’s a car in the shop, my dad’s replacing a belt and I’m trying to hold a flashlight for him while he explains that I’m not illuminating what he needs to see enough. I then learn colorful and creative new words from him banging his knuckles and attempt to use those same words in my own situations around the house. My mom hears me and angrily hits dad with something heavy to every single syllable in, “I better not ever catch you teaching him those nasty words again!!!”...so yeah I’m gonna need you to dial back the realism some. For real awesome work though. You never disappoint. I’m pretty sure I grew up there and I’m not quite sure how you knew that and formed a model of my memories.

    Fantastic. The possibilities of foam core are endless. Personally I like removing one side of the paper and making a brick texture. If you're looking to try separating one of the paper sheets off the form core in order to do a little sculpting or something, I'd recommend trying out cheap foam-core board from a dollar store, as the paper comes off more easily.

    Oh Snap! Eugene is going to love this shop. I love miniatures, and am very interested in mini sets and props. I like to watch the animation behind the scenes videos. For nails and screws to be more to scale, you can use the ones used in jewelry making, or from a pair of glasses. Love the video.

    My faeries Thank You!
    When I was stuck in the hospital for too long I built a miniature (full size for them, of course) gypsy faerie caravan. Complete with “marble” floors, loft bedroom, full library, kitchen, pots and pans (out of sculpting clay, etc) but not once did I have the insight to make them their own workshop!!
    Now that I’m well, my workshop is full and busy again. It is time I make them one of their own!!
    Thank you so much for being fantastic. I would have adored an instructor like you back in school and am thrilled we have you here!

    Are you kidding me Crafsman?!?!? How many talents do you have? It's like every new video you show off something you're fantastic at doing! The miniature set looks so awesome. Reminds me of this old Claymation PC game I palyed as a kid called The Neverhood except more detailed. What great character that little room has.
