In this episode I build a really unique idea for a house...a house built from a shipwreck. An amazing piece of narrative terrain submitted by one of my long time Patreon supporters. Thanks Belinda for the great idea!

i immersed myself in black wash and now all my crevasses and textures are clearly visible
Now just add some highlights and you're all set.
Now you look like a borderlands character.

That's a bit of an overshare :P
Just discovered this channel. Have you ever done 3d scans of the models you build? You could probably sell STL files as another revenue stream.
That is so amazing. I'll have to think of something even more fiendish next time.
You're a muse and a champion.
This is a Tour de Force of technique and approach. So much to use from this video. I really enjoy the narrative of how the build and design evolved.
This is just fantastic, such a good looking build!
Whoa thanks Belinda! This is an awesome idea for a terrain build and Jeremy really pulled it off- like we knew he would!
it's beautiful. I think the "candlelight" looks good, but the window frame is too similar in colour for it to really pop out. I believe it would look even better with some darker brown around it.
I was going to say the same thing. Definitely agree window frame is to light.
Agreed. Some more contrast would make the light pop way more. Great build overall, though!
I feel like we might see a theme of terrain? Maybe some Shadow Over Innsmouth inspired old fishing village?
Our group built a table like that around ten years ago, using the Popeye village in Malta as inspiration. It wasn't anything like as awesome as the stuff Jeremy makes, but it looked pretty good and was made almost entirely from cardboard. Over the years it got used in all sorts of games from D&D, Warhammer Fantasy, Mordheim etc but it deteriorated pretty badly and only a few bits still survive, but this video is inspiring me to maybe remake it using better materials and techniques.
Awesome work, as always, Mr Jeremy!
Between this and Wyloch's recent Beholder video, I'm going to be really busy I think :)
They had a shipwreck cottage in King's Quest V. The old sea hermit lived in it. I always thought that was cool idea. Good job! 👍
Ofc now you're a fully qualified miniature naval architect you have to make a ship trapped in ice for your Frostgrave table 😈
Aye, he must... :D
That would be sick! Two options: a ship that was suddenly overtaken when the magical frost overtook the city a thousand years ago, OR a ship that ran aground with new adventurers when it crashed into thick ice in the harbor with plates of ice jutting up around the boat and debris thrown overboard.
One of Edward Rowe Snow's books has a picture of a ship trapped in an iceberg... upside down. (I forget which book - it has been forty five years or so since I read it - but that image is still in my head.)
After seeing this, people who think 3D printed buildings are better than handcrafted terrain can kiss your ass. I'm blown away at the artistry on display here, and can't believe how cool this looks! You're a master at your craft, man, and it is a pleasure watching you work! It is even cooler to know that I can try it myself.
Arguing 3D printing vs hand crafted is like arguing photography vs painting. Utterly pointless. They are both art forms, what matters is the artist using them. That being said 3D printing someone else’s art basically amounts to printing a photo of someone’s painting. Mad respect for those that design the files or those that mix them with their own craft.....but only printing others work? To me that is sad and utilitarian. Not for me.
Black Magic Craft that’s exactly how I view it. The other way I look at it is by giving the respect to those dms that take the time to craft but still be able to give respect to those dms that care enough about their player experience to give them something nice to look at ( no matter if it was printed or crafted) people should get less caught up with which table dressing style is better and just have fun playing the game.
1. That is beyond awesome. It would be neat to see a town of shipwreck buildings.
2. If you add a little yellow/orange wash around the window frames, it should help to push that lighted interior look you’re going for.
" That's the nature of creation." Truer words were seldom spoken 😊
Will build 👍
I am so happy to have found this video. I have a pirate village in mind where the buildings are made out of broken up ships and this is the exact design I was hoping to find. Thank you for making this. Now I know I won't be wasting my foam with solid foam structures!
Love how you pay so much attentions on details. I mostly used cardboard for my projects and I found cardboard really hard to give very good details unless I'm using something else on it.
Another beautiful build. I hear you say all the time that you're not a great painter, but your paint jobs always make your builds come alive.
I’m getting better 😁
I love how passionate you are about all of your projects, (and honest about the ones you don't enjoy so much). Other channels are like, "And that's how you make one of those...... Next." Completely forgetting that these are passion projects that people build instead of just buying something, as they want something on their table that means something to them. Great job!
This is freaking amazing!! A suggestvfor the windows that you paint the frames a darker brown so that the yellow behind them stands out more, paint them a shade darker than the rest of the piece. But OMG it's amazing. Reminds of a house that this group from WoW would live in. I can't remember what they're called but they're like walruses and are 🎣 type species of course.
Would you be interested in making a series of builds inspired by the races that build the building or the region/terrian they are located in? It would be cool.
Hey! You found an amazing use for the flower tufts! This is just a beautiful build. So full of character. I was going to make a crashed ship monster hut from a part of a Mega Blox ship I found but this makes me want to build one from scratch.
What a beautiful craft! Really really cool. Tons of uses. Thanks for your video and thank the lady for the idea. Just an idea for the first part. Maybe use chipboard to make a two piece hull attached to a keel part in the center. Then you can glue paper strips or thin foam strips to look like the planks of the hull. That will save you the hustle of measuring and making the internal ribs to give strength to the building.
Great job, Jeremy! This is a really cool design that exudes character and really helps set a neat tone. Makes me think of "the walrus and the carpenter." As for the windows, maybe try making the frames look like wrought iron or blued steel to compliment and contrast the interior lighting colors.
Maybe you can do the lighting a little bit different. A little bit Brown in the Top edges
A late thought on the colors of the window: How about adding a gradient from black to orange? Also colouring the topwindow darker, to simulate the light of a weak candle that is farer away from the top window than the bottom one.
It looks awesome though as is. Its feels so full of life and story
This is great. If there is something missing, it would be a figurehead going into a bow sprit that would be a great flagpole. Also I’ve never seen a boat or ship that didn’t have barnacles.
This is so amazing though and I want to give this a try. Thank you for all that you’re doing for the hobby
What i love th emost is that your technique is almost exactly how wooden ships WERE made!
This is my all time favorite build! So much character and potential for game play! I LOVE it!!!
As someone who builds scale model ships for fun - you had the right idea with the keel and ribs. You're right about not having much surface area - it's something that a lot of newby ship makers forget; you should have beveled the ribs to follow the curve of the decking above. This gives you more surface area, and also makes sure that you're not bending the planking over a sharp corner.
If you're not gonna use real wood, I would have used plasticard, aka polystyrene sheet. Not sure if you've ever used that material in the past, and I know it can be a little spendy, but it would really help you out. You can bend it around angles like the hull of your ship, but it's also rigid enough to not droop like the foam under your porch. You can buy it in different thicknesses, from paper thin (but still rigid) up to the thickness of your chipboard. It also comes in various dowels, strips, pre-stamped patterns like cobblestone, and so on. You can glue it with plastic glue, which creates a chemical weld between the layers and it will never come apart. It's also safe for spraypaint and doesn't dissolve like foam.
Seriously man, you should check it out. Evergreen is the best, but kinda on the pricier side. There are some bad brands and bad qualities out there, so if you're gonna experiment, I'd start with Evergreen to get the "real deal" and then cheap out later.
Man, 1 second in, and I asked myself.. did I inspire the great BMC?
Turns out, no, that isn't the case lol.
Really amazing build as always. Maybe I should renovate mine..
Scratch Bashing cheeky self advertisement but it worked lol.
Has anyone ever thought of converting an old doll house into a table top dungeon? Like add in extra levels to make the scale more accurate and turn it into a full sized castle or mansion?
I have watched my late grandfather build alot of model ships from scratch growing up. I can tell you that the frame you built is exactly what he did too. He used balsa Wood instead of foam. I still have the old boat frames in the basement and alot of them look the way you did yours.
Your grandpa sounds like a cool dude.
totally agree about the windows, not sure of way to get them more realistic, perhaps not a solid colour, but shaded at the sides?
beautiful model, and agree about the base, never thought of it that way.
This little building I think would be perfect for a northern European shaman or some old captain of a ship. This was a great idea!
Looks great! And don't sweat it about the windows. It's incredibly hard to paint realistic light effects. You'd need to use a photo reference to get the fall-off just right behind the window, and paint in light spill and overblown details on the window frame. At that point, it would probably be easier to just use a battery-powered LED with a diffuser in front of it inside the window - Same effect, less work.
That is amazing! What would have added even a bit more character would have been broken railing extending out from the curved frame since it would have reinforced the idea of a *shipwreck*... plus, probably a patched area in the hull roof, and some barnacles.
This is amazing, but what blows me away is your painting, this is the main reason i subscribed to your channel, but for some reason I cant come close to getting colors,shadows and washes to look like yours. Keep up the fantastic work and thank you
If you watch my older vids you will see I used to suck at painting. I’m still not amazing but I’ve gotten better. Just takes experience. You’ll get there.
Exceptional weathering/aging effects on the planking of the hull, you've outdone yourself!
I like to imagine that the boat continues below the surface of the ground and acts as a multi-story home for this person.
I haven't painted miniatures or built terrain in 20+ years but I love seeing your techniques and find things I can use for my "life size" builds. Great work!
Damn... that is awesome. I love watching your channel it never ceases to inspire to come up with creative ideas myself. Maybe one day, even submitting my own build for the guild builds.
Probably my favorite build you have done so far. Thank you for your knowledge. I’m going to use a lot of your techniques in my builds. Really enjoy your channel.
Im doing the companions lodge in Skyrim and this helps because essentially the building is an upside down viking ship, this is helping a bunch
I've been researching uv resin recently because I am thinking of taking it up as a hobby. There are pigments both powdered and liquid that you can use to color the resin itself. It can be done in small batches on the spot, which also means there's not much waste if you want to test some color options out first.
This is probably my favorite of your pieces you've ever done! Fabulous and inspiring. I am going to have to make room for a Proxxon one of these days.
Fantasy is my favorite theme, with sci-fi coming in second, and modern and post-apocalyptic come last. So it is nice to see a project again we can use in fantasy settings.
This turmed out amazing. Well done.
These comments really bug me. I've made over 200 videos on projects in a fantasy setting and people can't have 3 whole videos about a different setting without making it known that they don't like them. I don't get it.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial It is true that since I started watching your videos a few months ago the vast majority of videos is fantasy related, so don't take this as
ill-natured critique or a complaint. I didn't check the other comment section so I have no idea if others made similar comments. I was just thrilled to see another cool project and shared my preferences, but I apologize if my comment offended you in some way.
Hey wow! There is a Quaker meeting house on the east coast of the USA which was made of the ship they rode in on. I think they just flipped it upside down to be the roof and filled in a bit with walls and a floor later.
That is amazing. I cant wait until i can build things like this(the paint is the scary part)
Why? It’s just paint. You can just paint it again. And again and again if you need to. It’s the most forgiving step. 😎
Holy cow!!!!! I'm so in love with this project!!! The square window reminds me of a cockpit sole grate :)
Seems to me, to help your window painting, you would make a gradient from orange to black as it goes up. The lower portion of the "room" would receive more light than the ceiling. Making them solid orange just makes the candle seem like it's going supernova.
Nice project, great little build. One thing I feel may help add that extra detail to your projects is just working in 1 or 2 extra colours. Some stains and streaks of red or green worked into the hull would have help add that extra level of detail.
Wow. Wow. Wow.
This is really a master piece. Man, you become better and better.
The realisation of this project with all your thoughts and solutions is just great! All these details, the ideas for the details. Your windows are great. With the colored background you have an easy way to create moods. Perfect! The decoration part is so creative.
One can see and feel, how much joy you had doing this build and create this video.
I give you standing ovations in front of my screen. :-)
Bravo .. Bravissimo.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
You know, in theory.....you could avoid gluing the windows in place. They fit snug enough. You could make little paper inserts to place behind them to change the "interior"....hmmmm
Yes, there are many ways how to make illusion for interieur. Maybe just pictures of cupboards and similar on the walls inside and table and charis to get some 3d effect. Since the glas isnt really flat and we have a distorted view of the interieur, it could work and look pretty realistic?
" I decided to try something new"....... your wonderful mantra 🤣
I wonder how many times I've said that in videos
It adds so much to your channel. I like that you experiment, take chances, and aren’t afraid to fail. These are lessons as important for us as the skills and techniques you demonstrate. :)
a nice trick to trace a shape is to use a compas, you put the needle on the piece, calculate the spacer and trace your shape it's easy! and really nice work!
I myself am now building a giant crab monster with a shipwreck Gor it's shell, thanks for the inspiration!
100 % correct about the base ! No base is usually the best.
As an Artist I love these videos, I do NOT play these games but I do love to make miniature scenes of various things.
Amazing!! I totally agree with basing buildings and scatter with versatility in mind.
I love it. I think a minor adjustment that would enhance it would be to make it crooked, ie, the port side was longer, causing the keel to be tilting to the right. Not a lot, but it would really be interesting.
That was astounding. Also for the light in the window a trick I've found helpful is having one point as the origin of the light an off white and go to yellows, orange and a red/brown in progressively darker shades as you move away from the light source. Do some blending starting at the lightest color and drag lightly into the darker colors with a soft dry brush.
Skyrim's makers should have had this much creativity with their shipwrecks! I love this build, and your process of adjustments throughout the process.
For someone who has been planning on making a to scale ship to use this is perfect.
Obviously there's a lot of things I'll need to figure out still, but seeing this done is making me think it's a lot more possible than I was originally thinking
Brilliant way to pull that off. Another way to do this would be to use model ship plans to make templates of hull supports etc (thought of this as my dad used to build model ships from scratch and he has loads of books with templates) if you overlap the planks a little then the gap problem wouldn't be so bad, just like real ships.
Awesome project. Be cool to grab some greenstuff and make some coral, mollusks, mushrooms or something on the sides
that might be one of the greatest builds you've ever done, i really like the addition of seal skin and big tusks!
It really came out beautifully. Those little extras at the end just make it pop.
Love your channel. A trick for the lights In the windows is to made the inner corners in a dark violet or purple; then, going for the interior mixed with red, then orange, and finally yellow (maybe an even lighter yellow in the center). With some darker bars at front looks really good.
(My written english not the best, I hope you can understand).
I wish I this channel had existed back when I still did miniatures gaming- just your tips on painting realistic wood alone would have been a game changer for my terrain.
I'm currently writing a pirate puzzle campaign and this hut is perfect for one of the reoccurring characters. Awesome job!
Here’s an idea for the window effect .… My dad was a dental technician, to make false teeth you make a base out of polished gold and then put an opaque acrylic on top of that... The idea is light entering the acrylic will reflect off the gold and radiate out giving the effect of a fully translucent tooth like A real tooth. Perhaps you could line the window area with some tinfoil or tinfoil tape and then lightly airbrush over that with whites and yellows so that light will reflect out from behind the paint. Don’t know if it would work but it would be worth trying!
The quality of your videos consistently goes up every time you upload. This was so fun to watch. Cool project too!
I really like how this turned out, my only small criticism would be that the tusks above the door should be a bit more ivory than gold looking. It would have looked more natural, as well as the light behind the windows. It does not look like light shining through. Maybe if you had put in a low level LED light at the back? I wonder how that would have looked through the acrylic windows?
How about a few videos on "revisiting" finished pieces ? Continuing a theme. A ship mast banner pole, a sail wind mill, cannon emplacements ??
Absolutely nailed it
Imagine making this concept but on a larger scale, having the entirety of a ship wreck on its side but cracked in the middle and using it as some sort of bandit hideout of sorts. Going by how hard it was for you on this one that would probably drive you insane. lol!
This is my favorite build you’ve done so far. I use craft board instead of pink stuff so this build isn’t possible for me to replicate but I got super excited when you added the “seal” skin entry way. I’ve been trying to figure out how to make hide tents for a while now and when you made that it was an ‘Aha!’ Moment for me. This build was super unique And I like when you do stuff that shows exactly why all the little tricks you know add up to build quality stuff I often fool myself into thinking can only happen with 3Dprinted models.
That really turned out amazing, what a beautiful piece that is just dripping with story. Really great job and fun to watch!
Oh oh oh Jerome this one build makes me think a whole town is needed all of made from the wrecks of ships.
Seems the inhabitants of Shipwreck Cove have been luring unwary ships to their doom for decades. A band of heroes are tasked with finding out how and stopping these dregs of society. Further investigation finds sorcery and an underwater form of Naga are aiding the people of Shipwreck Cove. The band must find a underwater breathing spell in order to bring the battle under the sea. Sounds like a bunch of fun terrain to make and some awesome monsters to craft. Naga, a form of underwater goblin that rides sea horses. A shambling hulk made of seaweed.... The imagination runs wild perhaps the band will find aid from merfolk and sea creatures they control.
This is truly beautiful. It really works for a variety of settings & stories despite being peculiar & unique.
Another fantastic build! That pelt overhang is amazing O_O Was a bit dubious when I started watching the video about where I might get a small square of fake fur... so was brilliant to discover you had achieved the look using nothing more than loo roll!
at 5:41 you were talking about struggling with the planking on that curved part. Try hitting the foam with a heat gun and bending the foam while its warm. It will take shape easier!
this build makes me think a whole village of shipwreck builds be cool for a game setting/ like a cove where ships are sunk by nearby pirates and the survivors have to build houses out of the remains and try and survive or such
Love to watch your videos. I had never felt confident painting mins or have played DND but I always enjoyed the look. Painted my first few minis yesterday and I far outperformed my own expectations. Your videos taught me a lot. Thank you.
definitely liked this! Gonna try this out if that's cool :) maybe with some nautical themed Mierce Miniatures.
Absolutely my favorite build yet! It's awesome that you've made videos for all the basics and more simple projects and we're getting to see some more unique pieces!
Amazing and atmospheric work once again, a feast for our eyes!!
DUDE! Beautiful! I once found some twigs, and made a Ship Frame with them, I still have it some place, HELL that should have told me I had a "CALLING" but I never followed threw with the finishing my idea, " LIFE HAPPENED!" but damn MAN u sure have inspired me ONCE again to get to it!! THANKS MAN!!
It helps to know that the planks on a ship are not straight. They are steam bent r they use some other method of bending the compound curve before applying to the hull frame.
Or they'll use "ship lap" overlapping by appx half the width f the plank in the middle and almost no overlap at the bow t build a base layer so they have a solid surface apply the main planks as they are bent.
It would be interesting to take this idea, and make the Snapping Line inn in Saltmarsh. The text says it's made from half a dozen boats, but I don't think you'd need to make six recognizable different boats. Technically the flavor text only says its made from the wood of the boats, but I think it would be cool if you could still recognize parts of the boats.
Late to the party, but responding to your comment about basing your minis but not your buildings: I agree with your method. You can get away without creating a specific base for buildings, as they already take up enough space to stand on their own. You can't do the same with mini's as they generally need a base to stay upright. You could try using a clear base, but they're never close enough to invisible. Plus, mini's are so small as is that adding a specific terrain to the base is another way to give the mini some character. Is this someone at home on the arctic tundra, or the cobbled streets of a metropolis? Do they enjoy the green spring pastures near their home, or do they hunt in the autumn forest far away? Each character can bring this "history" with them. But for buildings, we generally want them to inhabit a variety of 'characters' instead, so a more generic base is helpful.
My all-time favorite thing you’ve made
Oh wow! This is one of my favourite pieces you've built 😍 It's absolutely awesome xx
Are you a gamer? Looks like it was merely a gateway drug to making. This is a superb build. I think scratch builds are far more satifying than kits [not knocking the place of kits in the whole gaming experience] - speaking more as a maker that is. This ship/cottage is a mini work of art, the colouring of the wood is perfect. I think the windows need work though - they could do with weathering IMO as the clear material stands out a bit much. The interior effect might work better if it was situated further back behind the glass maybe a box or curved card inside, with maybe day-glo colour mix into the 'glow' colours. Still an amazing build [i.e. I want to live in it] Great work and inspiration!
I think your thinking for minis is. The base is being detailed the way they are is because that's their home, that is the base of their journey. And it's a part of their personality and where they come from. But that's just my thoughts. Where as the building are just building, yeah a building can have personality but at the end of day, a house is a house.
you need to go with a more yellowish tent with a light black around the boarder for that lighting effect behind the window I think
Love it! There is a technique called planking for building wooden boats. It will help prevent those gaps.
Looks fantastic man, your excitement for the project really shows in this video. Well done!
Now I'm imagining a whole seaside shanty town made from various chunks of shipwrecks.
Awesome build!
Dude! Them seal pelts are freakin sweet!!!
nice job I love all the little details you always add and how things are always a work in progress
Absolutely beautiful. This video, your boat video, and the kracken tentacle videos and the Dungeon Craft channel are major sources of inspiration for my campaign.
You can try to build "Giant's Rest" an inn build in the skull of a fallen giant, with those cheap halloween plastic skulls.
I've been doing my best in the last few days to emulate the techniques in these videos and it's been going pretty well. Your videos are fantastic!!!
