Hi Bill. The backstory you did was absolutely beautiful. It's a shame it wasn't longer, but I understand in the grand scheme of things it was only a small part of this video. You put so much into your productions it really is breathtaking. I really do think that this is definitely your best work so far. I love the use of the cable conduits for musculature. The subtlety of the lighting really works too. If you ever need a break from sculpting, PLEASE consider doing more world building and story crafting. I could watch that for hours. Your art style is perfect. It makes me think of 1970s hand animated fantasy work like The Fantastic Planet, The Point and stuff like Heavy Metal. So, to answer your question, yes please, more like this. It's well worth the wait, providing you want to do it. It's a lot of work!
He's so soft-spoken and quiet that I have to turn my volume all the way up; when YT goes to an ad at full volume, I about have a stroke. I haven't felt this alive since watching network television in the 1990s. Bill is the Bob Ross of makin' stuff.
After watching this and Studson's moving castle I now have my own plans to build a behemoth robot...granted it's going to be more squat and fatter than yours as I'm basing it off of the Destroid Monster from Macross and scaled (1/35 specifically) to go with my Brigador themed Maschinen Kreiger model kits.
As an animator, the fact that you basically created an animatic to go along with the titan's origin story is very awesome! Eager to continue my Bill-Binge of your entire video catalogue until I'm all caught up.
I couldn’t love this any more bill. The production value of the video is exceptional, the sculpt is simply stunning and your presentation is wonderfully humorous. This goes to show what can happen when an innate talent gets the chance to flourish. I also must point out that at the time of typing this you have 555 likes and no dislikes. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that ratio before.
Amazing build as always! My dog's ears lifted up at the squeaking on the "scratch building: building from scratch transition"- clearly there's more than one BillMakingStuff fan in the house!
People, go through the sketch book frame by frame (1:23 to 1:29). It's gold. I can't wait to see things like Spaghetti Steve and the Flowerhorn. Loved the storytelling bit. Yes, more please! Also, Bill, please do an "I have no respect for your time" shirt.
Absolutely a great build. Loved it all. Length of the video is no issue. Very inspirational 👏👏👏👏 Suggestion might be to use some more ‘natural’ materials as opposed to plastic, although I’ve seen you’ve quite a collection and the pound shop is all about plastic stuff
I definitely relate to making a build so big I can’t store it anywhere! As a huge fan of ghibli movies, I’m currently working on my second howls castle (the first broke), and it’s about three long and two and a half tall. No shelf in my house will hold it😅😂 for all the planning I did on the build, I overlooked that very important detail
Thanks for the time put in to this one Bill. Lovely Titan. I really liked the story and animation in the intro (and the rubbing cloth over microphone for sound effects?).
The world-building/lore was fun and certainly the build. I was intimidated thinking of how I would begin covering up the skeleton, but using a bunch of conduit wire was a great way to make the process simpler while still looking intricate.
Wow. I haven’t been this elated with a channel find in literally years. You are an amazing and singular dude, Bill. Im going to be up all night watching your entire catalog and finishing up my spaceship made of a cigar tube, nail file packaging, broken Christmas ornament and the cap from some cumin.
When I think of inspirational people, I think of Bill. To take ordinary items and turn it into a one-of-a-kind piece of art is such an amazing skill. It would be hard to put a price on these items.
Fantastic! Please do more story time, in fact, just make a whole animation that goes into the background of your junk planet. World building is the best.
That naturally weaving in and out effect that you pulled off flawlessly with all the wiring and mechanical parts is what really proves your expertise in this craft, simply mind bogglingly amazing attention to detail. That is the kind of dedication that makes an artwork truly timeless and special
That build is truly impressive. The moss really adds a nice pop of color and variation in texture. I could see a bonsai tree growing on this guy. I also love the story building and how you turned a technical difficulty into more content. I also don't mind you leaving the basing out, you already covered that in another video so...yeah. Keep it up.
Great structure! Such a lovely titan! I studied a fair bit of structural engineering for my environmental engineering degree. What you did with the wires is basically what makes concrete strong against shaking and bending and falling apart. For large structures like a house or a bridge the to scale equivalent is steel in cabkes, or a steel mat from cables. And concrete instead of the glue. Pretty neat!
Top quality build! I love the editing. The story part was an excellent addition! I hope you include them whenever you feel inspired to make them- my kid loved it too. The quick resin lens tutorial was just what I needed to solve a little issue I’d been pondering for a while- so thanks!!
This is incredible. The build itself is awesome but the background along with the animation is what makes it, for me. I would love to see more of the lore and setting of your creations fleshed out with these animations. I love the sketchy style so much!
I have to say, being a Patreon definitely helped me tonight. I got to see the video before I went for my works team meal and then got to watch it again when I came home drunk and give it a 'thumbs up' ... result in my books! Cracking build Bill and well worth the wait, cos like it took forever ;P Seriously very nice and well worth the wait, it's a real beast and the story / animation was brilliant (edited to remove the spoiler.)
I am absolutely floored by this build, this story, the animation, all of it! This build is nothing short of inspiring. Bill, you're a wonder, never stop making stuff.
Great build bill! The story telling is a unique addition, definitely keep it. Would love to see this character pop up again in future stories as you flesh out the world too
Awesome build. Enjoyed the storytelling. It helped contextualize the choices you made along the way (like rust and moss). Beautifully entertaining video even beyond the build itself. Thanks :)
Man, I really love your sketchbooks. I'm a complete beginner trying to learn to draw / sketch and I would really love to see some more drawing! Maybe in Patreon..... ??? And wow... I REALLY LOVE THIS ... THING
Love the video. I think there MAAAYYYYYY be an audio clip that was accidentally left on repeat. I forgot where it starts (maybe like 19:30?) But it's more noticable at 22:27 when 2 songs play at once. Either way it's still a great video! Glad to see this monster of a build!!!!:)
I’m in LOVE with the woven cables technique. Holy crap is that clever and looks amazing. Also I’ve never seen anyone use that much epoxy glue on a thing.
This was wonderful, I love all of the various 'stringy' materials with different thicknesses, they all come together so well! And the textures are really great too, the corrugated part of the conduit cord was a perfect base. Would love to see you do some more big builds once in a while if you're inspired to, this one turned out amazing!
What a great build! My first video I've seen of yours and what an impression it makes. The care and talent is very evident in this video and model. The whole thing is so creative and it turned out stunning. The moss is a particularly interesting and amazing part of the build as it adds so much to it. Keep up the great work, I love to see it!

Matrix is what I thought of as well..

Ooo film it! Post it!
That howls castle n thus vid so inspiration😊
Thanks for the shout out I'm glad you got good use out of the flock!

Great Build!
Love the world building
24:00 This must have the same feeling when your grandma wants to hang up a drawing. It feels great!

Heh
You are a master narrator and creator. Please, show us the titan in it's living room habitat ;)
I love big builds like this
The build is good
I can not get enough of the way you speak, it's so calming
Story AND an awesome build?!
You spoil us Bill 😍
Loved the story building
One of the best yet! Scary!!
People, go through the sketch book frame by frame (1:23 to 1:29). It's gold. I can't wait to see things like Spaghetti Steve and the Flowerhorn.
Loved the storytelling bit. Yes, more please!
Also, Bill, please do an "I have no respect for your time" shirt.
I love the detail of the moss being mainly on the top of the robot
The world building was awesome!
Gadsden! Is frigging huge! Love it!
world-building stuff was a nice touch
I love the backstory of the scrap Titan Bill. It certainly lives up to its name. I thought making a dracolich with a 4-inch base was big.
Definitely one of your best builds so far
The storytelling was a very cool touch!
So many tubes and hoses on that thing. H.R Geiger would be proud 😎
Absolutely a great build. Loved it all. Length of the video is no issue. Very inspirational 👏👏👏👏
Suggestion might be to use some more ‘natural’ materials as opposed to plastic, although I’ve seen you’ve quite a collection and the pound shop is all about plastic stuff

8:53 I freaking love that table

Welcome aboard!
This is excellent in every way.
This and Studson's Howl's moving castle video are by far my favorite craft videos on youtube.
I loved the story line part at the beginning. Great build. It looks freakishly real.
Structural Engineer here. I use a lot of wire and epoxy resin when building my bridges and hospitals. Nailed it!
Great build. I did enjoy the story of how the bot came to be.
Glad to hear it!
Its freaking incredible
Thanks for the heart :D👍
Yaaaasss story time ! That was awesome !
Really awesome Bill, I enjoy seeing your rusty machine world come together!
Hello, found my way here after running out of Dan Does videos. This looks ace!
When I think of inspirational people, I think of Bill. To take ordinary items and turn it into a one-of-a-kind piece of art is such an amazing skill. It would be hard to put a price on these items.
My absolute favorite build I've seen thus far!
Excellent build Bill! Turned out incredible
Yes to more storytelling and world building!
Amazing build Bill, reminiscent of Ghibili. Yes to more story and big builds!
Fantastic! Please do more story time, in fact, just make a whole animation that goes into the background of your junk planet. World building is the best.

I’m not a Dad but I am a Mom and I love your channel and humor. Inspires me to think out of the box when I’m making stuff. Thanks.
Awesome build Bill, great video, loved the back story - definitely more of that please!
Loved the world building and would like to see bigger bots. Thank you
Structural engineer here. Great work.
The honesty at 19:00 😆 I love it.
Absolutely beautiful creation. Keep it up. 🙂
You put so much work in your videos. Not just the build, but the music, stop motion segments, editing, lighting... truly inspiring!
Thanks for noticing
That build is truly impressive. The moss really adds a nice pop of color and variation in texture. I could see a bonsai tree growing on this guy. I also love the story building and how you turned a technical difficulty into more content. I also don't mind you leaving the basing out, you already covered that in another video so...yeah.

i love the way you talk to your audience as if they are just mates
Bill... are YOU the Scrap Titan? Deep down inside? Anyhoo excellent work as always, this is quality crafting. 👍🏻
Please do more story! My husband and I loved the story behind this guy. It would also be amazing to have stories for any other guys you make as well.
Rewatch this this one often. Love the story telling short at the beginning
Great structure! Such a lovely titan!

Unreal build Bill.Using the combs to make rivets in the Eva was genius.
That is one epic build, Mr Bill. Wow. I can't wait to see what's next.
Such a beautiful creation!
Beautiful stuff, Bill. He looks friendly, though powerful!
This is incredible. The build itself is awesome but the background along with the animation is what makes it, for me. I would love to see more of the lore and setting of your creations fleshed out with these animations. I love the sketchy style so much!
Turned out awesome
The production value on the piece and the video is just out of this world. Amazing.
You have outdone yourself. What a magnificent build!
Even just the drawing at the start was amazing. Exceptional work buddy!
The quality of your videos shows great respect for my time. Steady on. And I loved the cartoon.
I have to say, being a Patreon definitely helped me tonight. I got to see the video before I went for my works team meal and then got to watch it again when I came home drunk and give it a 'thumbs up' ... result in my books! Cracking build Bill and well worth the wait, cos like it took forever ;P Seriously very nice and well worth the wait, it's a real beast and the story / animation was brilliant (edited to remove the spoiler.)
Great build and an even more amazing video of the process
Seriously bill we need a tour of that art book, there’s so much inspiration material in it
I really enjoyed this one, the larger size means more room for detail. Great stuff Bill!
I am absolutely floored by this build, this story, the animation, all of it! This build is nothing short of inspiring. Bill, you're a wonder, never stop making stuff.
build rocks and love the story

Very impressive, Bill!
Awesome build. Enjoyed the storytelling. It helped contextualize the choices you made along the way (like rust and moss). Beautifully entertaining video even beyond the build itself. Thanks :)
Yes, more builds like this and stories
Man, I really love your sketchbooks. I'm a complete beginner trying to learn to draw / sketch and I would really love to see some more drawing! Maybe in Patreon..... ??? And wow... I REALLY LOVE THIS ... THING
suggestion years late. Try a wood drill bit for plastics, has a cutter on the outter edge to prevent burring. love the build
an incredible build! (and i quite like the story to go with it)
Love the video. I think there MAAAYYYYYY be an audio clip that was accidentally left on repeat. I forgot where it starts (maybe like 19:30?) But it's more noticable at 22:27 when 2 songs play at once. Either way it's still a great video! Glad to see this monster of a build!!!!:)
Nice work,and yes more story telling

I loved the story and this has me really excited to try a similar build project for an Ork stompa
I really liked the story part, hope to see more of that. Great job bill!
Loved everything about this build. Gloriously Gargantuan 🥰
I love your channel! TCM “steady crafting” is a dear friend of mine. I saw you on his channel. I’ve been binge watching all day. You are amazing!
