I absolutely love everything about this build! The story, the aesthetic, the design-build process, amazing work! I'm looking forward to exploring this world you are building.
Glad you like it! I was a little unsure going into this project if it would turn out how I envisioned, but I think in the end this might be my second favorite (I still prefer my Mabbit bot a bit over this!).
My new favorite channel. I've made a few scratch-build droids, but this guy is on another level. I think I'm going to get back at it. The inspiration brought on by this amazing content.
35 seconds into the first video on your channel, aaaand: SUBSCRIBED! I'm throughoutly impressed by the quality of your videos, Eric. - The build itself is both creative and impressive. - The fact that it's story driven is just genius. And the way you introduce it, bit by bit, just works. - Your narrator style does everything justice, by being both informative and funny. I spurted out a loud laugh, when you mixed the basing material. All in all, your channel and its content is a true gem, and I felt like taking the time to comment on the video and let you know! Best regards, Casper
Amazing work as usual! I am so curios about beyond the blight and looking forwards to your next build. Don't change a thing, your editing and crafting are outstanding 👌🏼
I need to channel some of this diorama energy of yours. I'm looking at building a Contemptor Dreadnought, but not in a fighting pose. I want it to represent the fragmented remaining humanity behind the soul locked inside the walking coffin. I want him sitting or kneeling and taking care of bonzai trees. If you want some good spray paint that has a proper matte try blackboard paint.
Man, on top of how good your builds, storytelling, world building and video editing is, I absolutely love your sketches! Do you have somewhere where you post them? Would love to see more of your drawing!
Not yet. I used to draw more, but I really only draw for my concepts for these models now. And a lot of what I do is strictly digital, though I'm keeping the resolution very high so that I can (possibly?) do something with it in the future.
@@gameyybuilds would absolutely love to see some more! I've always wanted to get into drawing mechas and weird technology stuff, I've gotta try it next time I've got some free time, thanks for the inspiration ✌🏻
Oooh I am really loving the lore and how you develop it upload by upload... I think this is my favorite Beyond the Blight build thus far🤩! Cannot wait to see what else you thought out for this universe😆😆 Thank you once again for your vidoes, they really inspire me!
This is amazing! I discovered you by accident - our 5 yo son loves to watch model builds (and create his own from PlayDoh). He’s watched a couple of your builds. The storytelling is awesome. My wife and I aren’t even into science fiction but wow. Do you do this professionally? You have so many talents. A real inspiration to our kid - thank you.
Awesome, I get so much inspiration from other artists on RUclips so I’m humbled to be able to pay it forward! This is just a hobby for me, but I hope to compile my stories into a book one day.
@@gameyybuildsA Beyond the Blight book?? 😱 That would be so fricken' awesome!! While watching a few of these builds I have started playing an animated show in the back of my head, similar to "Love, Death, and Robots" or even a "Tales from the Loop" live action series. Definately interested in the book, maybe one day it will get turned into a limited series...🤔💙👍
This is lovely! I know I'm 8 months late with this, but if you need an idea for a future build, maybe a follow-up would be cool, of a fully grown enormous orange tree with what remains of the now long broken walker underneath/entangled in the roots, having never found a place to plant it but always having kept it safe and nourished
Or a small grove of young orange trees scattered around it...? The lore story broke my heart (in a good way), and I want to imagine a happy ending for the tree (and happy-ish for the walker having unknowingly fulfilled its duty). I do have to applaud the power of leaving it open for us to feel compelled to complete the rest of the story! 🙂
@@SPQRKlioYeah, I kind of saw a trail of little orange trees wherever an orange fell off the back of the walker. Maybe have a map as backdrop for a future build showing the journey of the walker across the country with little orange icon for all the new trees that spramg up along the way.
I’m really impressed by how confidently and cleanly you sketch! The story for this one really got to me, I’m excited to get through the rest of your videos in this series :)
Wonderful build video, and the storyline is great! Looking forward to further installments and watching your subscriber numbers rise. I learnt a great deal from your process and embracing the attention to detail. Bravo artiste
Great video and wonderful story! I liked the techniques you used to get everything looking as good as it does. A lot of techniques I've seen are way above my skill level (like a 12 hour tree), but what you've shown here is in my comfort zone and I can't wait to try it myself! Thank you!
A couple of days ago, I commented on CC minis that it was nice, when you've watched all of your favorite crafters' videos, to find a new one that's really good at making thing and videos... And then I'd watched all of his videos too... So in a few days, I'll have watched all of yours too. and I'll be back where I'd started x) Seriously though, your stuff is awesome. Congrats
Thank you Foehn! (And thanks for your patronage) Glad you're enjoying the channel. I'll do my best to crank out more content soon. Hopefully this next video won't take another 5 weeks to get out.
Oooooooo, I picked one of these up at dollar tree months ago and wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with it but this is giving me some ideas Beautiful build
Awesome work. Apologies if someone else has said this, but another way to get rid of bubbles in epoxy is if you place the epoxy into a vacuum tank and pull the bubbles out yet way. It should make it a lot quicker and less labour intensive for you.
I just found your channel. The nice thing about finding a channel like yours after you've been around for a while is that I can binge watch your videos. If you'll excuse me ...
Watching you essentially scratchbuild the entire thing from card stock is very impressive. Especially adding on the extra layers and details. I was wondering if you happened to be into the gunpla hobby and using those parts for your own robot and integrating them is very cool.
This was absolutely an awesome diorama gonna start my own dioramas soon too and the production quality deserves more attention for sure keep it up brotha🙌🏼
Brilliant diorama, funny video, clever editing, interesting world building. I always enjoy your videos, when I need a bit of inspiration/motivation for my projects I come and watch your stuff.
Wonderful execution, imagination. mechanics, and construction process.. I would not have imagined a dot of water before bending would work, in that I figured it would swell up and/or distort.
Such artistry. The forlorn delicate web of life you imagined here with the last orange tree and the important quest of the unaware robot reminds me of our own lives as humans. Not really knowing our purpose, but proceeding anyway. We can never fully be sure if our effort amount to anything at all, but in case it does we proceed with gusto, and in doing so, look back to find that we have lived after all. Our world is enriched by the messages told from your imagination. Thankyou so much.
I put a swamp monster in that same plastic display thingy from the dollar store lol. Enjoying your world building keep it up gameyy. Builds are looking great
I may admit the fact you made a creative robot Walker one like the Walker staying long enough on the swamp at the point the tree start to grow on his back or the top one
Awesome build and video! I'm no paint scientist, but I think paints are made matte with a powdery matting agent. If it doesn't get mixed enough, the paint will dry glossy. So those cans probably just needed even more shaking. 😬
You should check out vacuum tubing at an auto parts store. Really small sizes are available and its flexible and resistant to kinking. Well, really small by ordinary standards. Usually made out of EPDM which is a great rubber but doesn't like oil (no oil paints. Gates brand is the best for cars and for you imo, but it has a greasy coating. I think that with a line painted down the side and some fake branding and specifications would make for some amazing hydraulic hoses. During and after rain, check out the trash or ask an employee for some old wiper blades if that auto parts store changes them. Wiper blade adapters, most of which must be thrown out, look very... greeble-y. The adapters are the bits that are at the bottom of the packaging. During the earliest hot weather and during the hottest weather, check the trash for air conditioning refrigerant adapters and hoses. They're reusable but most just toss them after charging their car's AC. They have a lot of fiddly plastic and metal bits. I know it sounds super ghetto, but this stuff is usually right on top trash (this sounds so dumb as i'm writing this). Honestly, if you walked in and told the staff you're looking through the trash for adapters, they'd just assume you used to work there and was trying to save a a few dollars on a simple fix. In fact, they'd probably tell you where to look.
These are awesome tips! I actually just purchased a bunch of silicone tubing, which I assume is similar to the rubber you mentioned. But great suggestion in checking with the local auto place for greeblies!
Another thing. IRL, around where i live, (mid atlantic region of the US) abandoned equipment will have lichens growing over paint and moss growing over any rubber, like weather stripping and exposed hoses. There is an distinct difference between the two surfaces. This will occur even if there is no appreciable dirt or detritus covering it. I don't think i've ever seen this done quite right in mass media.
@@gameyybuilds The electrical connectors and light bulb sockets are quite greebly too, but most are expensive. Some of the extremely common ones can be had for $5-8. Junkyards will have them for cheaper, but plastic that's old enough to vote is usually very brittle. One last thing; check out the plastic rivets and fasteners. There is an insane amount of diversity in plastic fasteners for the automotive industry. If you find something you like or might need again, write down the part number! The entire auto parts industry revolves around part numbers.
“it was looking a lot like a crab. which was unintended, but cool.” -nature/evolution creating another banger creature
Even without the lore, just the visual story telling of the walker itself is amazing
Thanks!
Dude if you would put lights under the walker it will look sick
Yes

Great! I’m looking forward to starting the next one this weekend!

Wall-e is one of my favorite films so this was easily my favorite design of yours (so far!)
This is so sick. I loved this video so much. Your ideas are so cool and inspiring
I love it! Seeing where this story goes and the unique characteristics of these characters is so much fun. I’m excited to see the next entry 😊
This is incredibly peaceful and really inspires, I also love how you explain what's happening while building and the somber but exciting backstory.
Brilliant diorama, funny video, clever editing, interesting world building. I always enjoy your videos, when I need a bit of inspiration/motivation for my projects I come and watch your stuff.
Many thanks! Glad you're able to get some inspiration from my builds.
Got sent here by north of the border and im impressed. You have a great lore going on here and it is interesting to watch what you build. Kudos

@@Scier357 I try!
Wonderful execution, imagination. mechanics, and construction process.. I would not have imagined a dot of water before bending would work, in that I figured it would swell up and/or distort.
Chipboard is pretty dense, so it’ll only warp if you soak it in too much water. A tiny bit is great for improving flexibility.

Thanks for all the feedback Sam!
What a nice build! I think it is really cool how much efford you put into these video's, keep up the good work! 😊
Thanks a ton!
Pure brilliance once again

19:06 *chef kiss* Actually epic.
you have become one of my favourite RUclipsrs... also this universe NEEDS to be made into a real show e.g like cyberpunk edgerunner or arcane
I feel like a game about this would be epic
This channel is incredible.
Very nice build diorama and an awesome mech .
wow, just wow, and hell of a story
Coooooool!! I love your style! And story. So good. First video of yours - subscribed.
Welcome aboard!
I like this channel :). Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks!
Your imagination is incredible.
this build reminds me so much of the anime ‘Eden’!! i love love the solarpunk-esc vibes
Dude! seriously amazing!
I like how you improvised a rocket thruster, tubing and environment sensors greebles from a biro ☺️
Awesome build and video! I'm no paint scientist, but I think paints are made matte with a powdery matting agent. If it doesn't get mixed enough, the paint will dry glossy. So those cans probably just needed even more shaking. 😬
Thanks for the info!
Amazing creation
Love the build and the lore, would have maybe liked some weathering on the glass dome...
"Gameyy Zwamp Paste". list of ingredients. Man, I 💗 it.
You should check out vacuum tubing at an auto parts store. Really small sizes are available and its flexible and resistant to kinking. Well, really small by ordinary standards. Usually made out of EPDM which is a great rubber but doesn't like oil (no oil paints. Gates brand is the best for cars and for you imo, but it has a greasy coating. I think that with a line painted down the side and some fake branding and specifications would make for some amazing hydraulic hoses.
During and after rain, check out the trash or ask an employee for some old wiper blades if that auto parts store changes them. Wiper blade adapters, most of which must be thrown out, look very... greeble-y. The adapters are the bits that are at the bottom of the packaging.
During the earliest hot weather and during the hottest weather, check the trash for air conditioning refrigerant adapters and hoses. They're reusable but most just toss them after charging their car's AC. They have a lot of fiddly plastic and metal bits.
I know it sounds super ghetto, but this stuff is usually right on top trash (this sounds so dumb as i'm writing this). Honestly, if you walked in and told the staff you're looking through the trash for adapters, they'd just assume you used to work there and was trying to save a a few dollars on a simple fix. In fact, they'd probably tell you where to look.
These are awesome tips! I actually just purchased a bunch of silicone tubing, which I assume is similar to the rubber you mentioned. But great suggestion in checking with the local auto place for greeblies!
Another thing. IRL, around where i live, (mid atlantic region of the US) abandoned equipment will have lichens growing over paint and moss growing over any rubber, like weather stripping and exposed hoses. There is an distinct difference between the two surfaces. This will occur even if there is no appreciable dirt or detritus covering it. I don't think i've ever seen this done quite right in mass media.
@@gameyybuilds The electrical connectors and light bulb sockets are quite greebly too, but most are expensive. Some of the extremely common ones can be had for $5-8. Junkyards will have them for cheaper, but plastic that's old enough to vote is usually very brittle.
One last thing; check out the plastic rivets and fasteners. There is an insane amount of diversity in plastic fasteners for the automotive industry. If you find something you like or might need again, write down the part number! The entire auto parts industry revolves around part numbers.
Brilliant stuff. Hope your channel sees some major growth. Loving the progressive lore as well.
