hey Jeremy, quick question re the Loot ad: A point of contention on their FB page is that it's not sci fi enough and that they're probably doing models that fantasy ppl would still want. Was that line where you mention this on their press release, or was that all you?
@@mattcurr9931 Everything I've every said about LOOT has been my own impressions and thoughts. I don't get or use a press release or talking points from them. I didn't know that was a point of contention for some, seems like a good thing to me.
I'm subscribed to the sci-fi. First three months were quite good (nice variety, though the spaceships they included were not really for me, I'd prefer other vehicles, but all the figs were great). I just got access to the current month and it is excellent: "Nuclear Wasteland". Amazing selection of very unique figs and a few pretty interesting vehicles as well. They've also upped their game on the included PDF with character stats and backgrounds. I'm currently playing D&D online with friends (someone else is DM) but I'm building up a nice collection of figs for the GammaWorld / Traveller -like campaigns I like to run and a lot of that is from Loot for when we get back together.
pre-shading, chipping - Jeremy dropping 'advanced' (not really, but people think they are until they try them) techniques on an awesome build. Pretty clear you enjoyed yourself with this build. Really love the craft foam to provide that 'futuristic building material' look that can then be kept 'pristine' or weathered up. Clearly I'll need to take another trip to dollarama for more craft foam . . .
Just a tip when it comes to thinner strips of tape, I do junk journaling, there are some pretty inexpensive washitape that would work nicely for those thin lines you are after :) if you can´t find that, go to a nail section and look for small rolls of nail decoration (it´s like really thin tape/washi that´s only a mm or so thick/wide, they even have like stencils if you want really small patterns) :) 💜
I just adore the cyberpunk style! In part because I’ve seen so much fantasy, medieval and monster stuff that this looks so fresh and fascinating. But I’ve always loved sci-fi and gritty mixed it’s just so GOOD. I’m just amazed how you can make something so realistic in such a short time without some kind of engineering degree.
I got a bunch of thin painters tape from Amazon last year, 9 rolls for around £6. I brought them for sealing top loaders on hockey cards but as often happens with ADHD, I’ve changed hobbies now and they’ve been working great for terrain painting! Also, top loaders make great window panels & are a perfect substitute for broken glass, so if anybody has a bunch of old scruffy top loaders too far gone to put cards in, throw them in your bits box instead!
Oils are typically fine over chipping. (for anyone who is wondering) I worked on a model kit and oils worked fine with the medium on with no varnish. Test it out on something small if you are unsure.
Just started post apocalypse and dystopia terrain building. For more durable corrugated, try a tube squeeze on aluminum cans. Works great for these containers or even barn tin sheets.
A thought from the engineering side of me; real shipping containers have a sort of plug-and-socket arrangement at the corners to help keep them aligned and stack more or less rigidly. That would be hard to achieve with dowels or whatever if you wanted to rearrange them or make sure they stay in place during "spirited" play, but magnets in the corners should work.
I have watched most if not all of your videos and I can tell you that with the combination of a bunch of your previous builds you can make a city, you have the techno cyberpunk builds, the industrial builds, the junker builds the destroyed building builds, everything tht goes cyberpunk, industrial, dystopian can be used, an I have seen a lot of what you have made and I guarantee you you can gather it and make a small if not large well assorted city.
These are great. I've been wanting to do a shipping container city for a post apocalyptic setting, but have it built at the end of a crumbled overpass, and have it stretch from road to ground below. I just don't know how I want to build the overpass/on ramp portion... but now I am getting some ideas! Thanks !
I'm not going to lie, this project is INCREDIBLY similar in construction to a terrain idea I've been flushing out for a few weeks. Definitely gave me some ideas and definitely ruled out a few things I was pondering. Funny timing, but thanks for the vid as always.
I'm definitely going to get in on that sponsor for some sweet Stargrave minis! I'm also going to be using this style with a different color scheme for a "frontier settlement" with lots of containers and repurposed structures mixed in with pre-fab buildings. Thanks for the inspiration!
After so many years, every single time I watch a video of yours I have the warming feeling to meet with an old friend. Thank you for sharing your story, mate!
Wearing your sunglasses at night :D Great intro and wonderful color choices. 100% the white pen works great! I used a silver pen as well recently. It looks like you had a blast with this!
Hey Jeremy! I liked this video and those shipping containers so much that they make me wish I was playing something where we could use them! I would love to start building me some shipping containers! LOL. Two thumbs up to you (since youtube will only allow me to hit the like button once!) Awesome!
Thumbs up for a great build, reminds me of the dodgy areas of Night City you do not want to go to but where your DM is going to send you, the slums, the DMZ.
Reminds me that I need to build some shipping containers. I have these rolls of corrugated paper trim, normally used for decoration. They're about the right width that I could slap them on with minimal cutting. The main issue being that they're cut with a wavy pattern down the middle, intended to be easily pulled apart (because they're trim). Might be noticeable, or might not be. The advantage, of course, is that I could selectively push these waves in, to look like damage to the "corrugated metal". And I figure after a coat of primer, the cuts will probably be less prominent.
I just downloaded the latest Loot Sci Fi collection - its pretty dang cool! Thanks for giving me some ideas for the diorama I want to build with that Terminatorrobot.
If you needed to give the corrugated papery bits some more sturdiness, you could also use something like Diamond Glaze--a resin glaze which is used to coat paper beads. This makes a shiny coat, but it gives even magazine paper beads a firmness to withstand constant use.
beautiful work, throughout the entire video I was tempted to go and buy Stargrave (it's on my wish list for now, first I have a table of Frostgrave to build :D )
This was really a great post , my kids ( and their friends) , want to play a sort of DC/Marvel/ Whatever dystopia kind of future war game. This will come in very handy on my next few weekends.
Heeeck yeah! Excited to see more game-oriented cyberpunk builds being produced (dioramas are all well and good, but honestly, this is where it's at) Loved how you did the walkways, gonna have to remember that. Gonna do the corp zone next? ;-)
Awesome! I actually live in a converted shipping container for about 3 years, brings back memories :) though the ones in my block where painted in one of the colors of the Dutch flag or orange
It’s so cool that you’ve been banging all this stuff for so many years and you’re still killing it. These look really great. I was about to use some chipping medium on grimdark Admech terrain that I’m doing. It was nice to see how it handles
I thank you for the idea. This is what i was looking for. I have played Cyberpunk for years and never thought to loo back into the Lore for Terrain that i could make for the table. Again i thank you for the idea.
This is another awesome vid, gonna use some of these ideas for fleshing out the hive in Necromunda. You added so much colour yet kept it grimy and well used like any type of well "loved" hive sprawl. I have one shanty stack from 2 years ago awaiting paint and I think this is the way to go.
Love the enthusiasm! Love the project. Just fun. Maybe a naïve question but in the past two years of watching, I always wonder if you are doing your own music. Inquiring minds and all that. Cheers!!!
Love the video!! If you wanted a 2.0 version all you would need to do would be to add lights. it would be easy since it is just a hollow box. But you don't really need lights because the boxes are already killer!
man, i'm 30 years old, but i still want to be like you when i grow up dude! I have a dream of building full towns and city scapes for DnD. The way model train people do up their whole set ups, I want that but in a DnD style, but also made by me. You're hella inspiring dude. keep up the good work :)
This is a great idea. I purchased Reality's Edge over the summer, but haven't played it yet because I have almost zero cyberpunk style terrain to use. I've been trying to think of a way to make cheap terrain that has a lot of replayability so I can really get my money's worth. This is fantastic. Hell, you could create just a few sections without doors to just throw in when you want to pad out a building and add stories without using catwalks. Also, I use zip ties for cladding and other details for a lot of my scratch-built terrain. Works great.
This looks really nice and give me a lot of ideas for my terrain, thanks. On a side note, as an metric guy I find is always funny if i see people measuring and calculating with fractions of inches. ^^
It's funny. I clicked on this video, not overly paying attention to what it was. There I was base painting my shipping container terrain pieces and I look up and you were talking about shipping containers!
Huge thanks to *LOOT STUDIOS* for sponsoring this build! Check out their new SCI FI Subscription : bit.ly/3c4T14c

I figured it should be since chipping medium is water based. I’ll try directly next time.
Love cyberpunk. The relief details you've added really make these look fantastic. I can smell the rain and fumes

Do you have an actual shipping container to store all of the terrain you've made by this point?
Good question
Yes but it’s one he made out of foam board.
haha sure he does!!
I've been wanting to run a Cyberpunk game, this is awesome thanks!

Love the 3d/2d combo with 2minutetabletop assets!
These are my favorite type of projects you build. Love post apocalyptic or syfy/punk things.
Thank you for making this Noble Guildmaster, this will be really useful for the Necromunda board I'm going to be building soon!!!
It’s great to be able to tie in with the fundamentals of your previous container build… but you didn’t use any pasta 🍝 on these! Fine work Jeremy
macaroni pipes
Literally just joined a cyberpunk campaign last night! Great timing!

Holy hell! Zip ties for cladding the edges of foam core walkways. That sort of ingenuity is why Jeremy is rolling up on Towan level mini construction.
WHEN YOU BUY LUKE TOWAN ON WISH
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial Hahahaha.
Fantastic. I love the cyberpunk theme and the "letters" you used.
One of those letters looks like the rune for Oblivion gates.
These are AMAZING! The Colors are PERFECT! SAVED IT!!! Ideas! BAM!!

Favourite build in ages, great job! I'll have to give this one a go for modular hab blocks.
Those look great! You also look like you're having fun. That's good to see.
Total genius. Gonna be making these for Five Parsecs from Home.

Cory Hart lives on in cool.
YESS let's goooo! Cyberpunk Time!
Fantastic build! The utility of an airbrush is undeniable....I need to get brave enough to actually start using one. Cheers!
They aren't nearly as intimidating as people think they are. Get on it!
Great project! Will attempt with 12yr old grandson to tempt him into terrain building.
That zip tie edge is awesome!
Loving this look! Perfect for stargrave!

There's a wealth of sci-fi skirmish rulesets out there right now, some very cheap, and even some solo ones like 5 parsecs, you *can* do it! :D
NICE ONE. ...Stop inspiring me I have so much I want to build 😅. AWESOME job 👏
Retrowave. ...Synthwave ..I love this cool work
ziptie cladding, love it!
Grand reveal shots have been awesome lately
Super good ideas on modularity and detailed building for this setting love it.
Zip ties were genius!
This is so cool. I'd love to using this method for a fantasy city.
I think that city needs a light up hex board for the base. oh WAIT a minute!!! ;)
Existing hex board too small….full 4x8 required 😄
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial make sure there are stripper poles too..... for the robot strippers!!! don't... don't look at me like that!
Super cool! I love to see how your creative ideas take shape in different genres. 😍🤩👏🏻
Night City needs some tea light lamps ✨
It's been so much fun watching you do this cyberpunk stuff. For sure refreshing to watch. Digging the lighting and music.
I love these buildings! Excellent build!

Perfect stack-able terrain, and heck yeah more cyberpunk! Your diorama was an influence on me and I love seeing you make more stuff like this!

For large scale paint chipping, you can use liquid latex underneath what you what chipped off
Looks great! Like the modular scheme so you can change things up at will!

Great content, although I wish you mentioned shipping containers.
watch out, we got a jokester over here.
These were great, Jeremy! As a Necromunda player these definitely work great!
Woah!!! Need to build a few of them for my Orkish town!!
Great looking terrain! Very usable for Judge Dredd as well.
Beautifully gritty! Much more Pacifica than Watson. I expect you would have to do a monthly sweep to clear out squatters.
Great! I'll try my self in doing something similar!
Amazing project and the paint tutorial will help with my 3D printed buildings
Thats really cool. I enjoyed this. Very approachable build too.
Fantastic, can't wait to try it myself!
I can tell a difference in the videos you are really excited about. This project came out great. Awesome place for a new crafter to start as well.
So cool, I'd love to hear more about your cyberpunk game and what you think about it
Very, very cool build. Been meaning to make more shipping containers myself. 🤔
i can HEAR the EBM blasting out those neon lit doors
Very cool project, i look forward to trying this on my own soon, thanks. Keep up the great work.
