When I saw those plants I thought they were from King's Field and seeing Guyra just confirmed it.
Awesome! So happy to see someone recognize them! :D
I hate to plug myself, but if you like this sort of thing, my channel is full of it.
Hey man, absolutely! Actually been subscribing for a long time, but I've barely been able to watch videos from any youtubers the past couple of months, so kind of forgot whom did what. But absolutely love your channel! :D
Hell yeah, Kings Field. I've lost count of the amount of times I used the West Coast area as the entrance to a dungeon.
That's awesome! I ran a condensed version of the entire game's story for D&D, which was quite fun. :D
Oh man I love the (everything!!!!). Thank you so much for the shout out. I would love to craft some of these for myself.
Hey man, of course! You make awesome stuff, and people should know about it! :D
Ive made a few figures with hot glue casts and similar techniques. I love your plants!
Very cool! And thank you! :D
These are great man,I love this stuff.
Hey man, thanks! :D
Ok you deserve so many more describes your talent is unmatched
Thanks, that's very kind of you to say! I hope to get some videos up with making more minis(like these) and terrain in the future. :)
Kingsfield I freaking love that game. The whole time I was like no way no way that's Kingsfield.
Hell yeah! Absolutely love King's Field! :D
Very happy to see someone recognize them! :D
Your work on these mini's is very good.
Thank you very much! :)
Kingsfeild? I actually use an old strategy guide for that for on the fly dungeons all the time
10 points to you! :D
Ah, that is very cool! The first King's Field released in the west is one of my absolute favourite games of all time! I even made a kraken miniature, but I managed to break it, so it's not in the video, hehe!
omg top taste in vidya mate!! adore the entire kingsfield aesthetic so love seeing it expressed anywhere possible!!
Dude, thank you! :D I'm just sad my KF Kraken miniature broke some time before I made this video, because I was really happy with that one, and didn't get to include it. ;)
Excellent work all around. Not quite at that stage myself but killer work.
Thanks! But you might be surprised at what you'd be able to make. ;)
These mini are great
Thank you!
This give me an idea to create a mini for the Dahaka from prince of persia. Man that would scare the shit out of the party
Hi, sorry for the late reply. Seems I've gotten a few comments without notice. :)
Dude, that would be so cool! If you do it, please let me know! I'd love to see it. :D
@@TheCreativeKobold no worries and will do XD
Where did you get the eyes for the beholder? I’d like to get some myself…
I think I got those from AliExpress while ordering random crafting materials. Just search for "doll eyes", and you should be able to find them. :)
What kinda clay was it? Was it like Das air dry clay? Or was it more like actual clay? (you know, the brown muddy stuff you need to bake)
This was Fimo clay, which you need to bake. Though honestly, Das air dry clay would definitely have been better for this purpose. I just didn't have access to that(or a substitute) at the time. ;)
@@TheCreativeKobold Thanks for answering. Based on your experience, how durable would you say das clay is once dry? When I tried it, I made a few small cubes, they turned out more resistant than I thought (I dropped one out a 2nd floor window and it didn't break), but I'm not too sure if the same could be said for more complex shapes (like a miniature).
While I don't really have any experience with that brand specifically, I've used other brands of air dry clay. But from my experience, though absolutely not equal, clay is still clay. It can definitely break, because it is a naturally porous and somewhat brittle medium.
Mostly it shouldn't be a problem if you're careful with the finished product. However, epoxy based putties like Green Stuff or Milliput should be more suited for making 28mm scale minis. :)
Man nice work! i really love the Kalameet like dragon. Wonder if can we get some tutorials eventually (?)
Hey man, thanks! :D Kalameet is very reminiscent of Guyra(the dragon I've sculpted) in From Software's earlier title, King's Field - Guyra being the original creator of the Moonlight Sword. :D
As for tutorials - probably not for this guy specifically, as he's already done - and I've no time to make another one just for the sake of it. But I'll definitely be making more creature crafting/sculpting videos. :)
Thanks for the answer my dude! Keep up with this awesome work 💙
Thank you! :)
Great monsters!
Thanks! ^^
Such awesome work!!!
Hey man, thanks!
These are good-looking sculpts; impressively-made considering the use of common items. How are you curing them to paint? Just air-dry?
Thanks! For the clay ones, they actually had to go into the oven.;)
Those look bad ass dude.
Thank you very much! :D
Hm..Thats an idea i never considered, usually i cant find air-drying clay so i completely ignored it.
Cheers! Oh and wish you a Merry Christmas if you see it in time!
Some folks use pure sillicone or latex and flour( cant recall exactly which variety for moulds, but will also be perfect for this.)
Have you tried using plaster bandages ? Ill try making myconid civilisations these days, aswell as a Goblin cave.
(And a WW2 forest ambush, trees and brushes are arriving soon)
Hope you find some and get crafting! :D
I've tried making moulds using silicone and dish soap with some success. Never used plaster bandages, though. :)
Sounds like you've got some cool projects ahead of you! :D
Have a merry Christmas! :)
The Creative Kobold
I meant It as using for making the muniatures themselves, not the moulds.(Not really easy lol)
Curious how hell of a task it would be to find a paint that doesnt peel off .
Huh. That just sounds like a bad idea, considering paint, yeah. Weird material choice for minis.
The Creative Kobold
Thanks, that will proly save me alot of angst !
Have you heard of water-soluable enamels? Recently added to my local home improvement store(has a kid toy on the box so it works on wood, no idea on plastic
Found a conversion website so ill be able to mix pretty much any colour.
Found a wood stain that is an amazing wash, now im going to try using that paint.
@@StalkeraBg Haven't heard of that, no. Haven't really touched enamel paints at all since I was a kid.
i love this so much!!!
Awesome, thank you! :D
The dragon reminds me of Kalameet, but Dark Souls isn't that old...
That is definitely on the right track, though. ;)
dark souls? the one eyed dragon looks like kalameet
That is actually very close! They're from the PS1 From Software game King's Field(Spiritual predecessor to the Souls series), where the dragon is Guyra - the yin to Seath's yang. ;)
Water weird are bad ass.
They are quite fun creatures! :D
@@TheCreativeKobold I used some not to long ago. I got some wiz kids water elementals to use. I wish I thought of making one like you did.
Cool! Yeah, they're pretty easy to make. Just a bit of hot glue. :)
Dark soles?
Dark Souls is close - but no. ;)
I’m the 105th person to like
Whoo! Thank you! :D And I'm glad you do. :)
Hm.. Demon Souls?
*Spiritually* very close, but no! ;)
@@TheCreativeKobold waaaait, is this a King's Field reference?
@@GroovyDude00 10 points to you!!! :D
Eat your cereal
Haha!
I’m gonna guess FF.
Really nice work bro.
Thank you! But no, it's not FF - but it *is* made in Japan.
The Creative Kobold must be Nintendo. I have to know now!
Hahaha! Not Nintendo! I can say that they've made some games in the recent years that are generally considered the most difficult games ever. ;) (But those games are not the actual game which these minis come from.)
