Great tutorial, and spaghetti. Also a rectangular cube is called a cuboid :) (which is a really dumb name since it basically means it's cube-ish ;p)
I'm an engineer and for that metric is the way to go, but for woodworking (one of too many hobbies) and almost everything 'human-scale' I 100% agree Imperial is the way to go. Here in Malta we work much the same way. We use metric for nearly everything but indoor spaces and furniture generally Imperial is preferred.
I find when stencilling an uneven surface a stencilling brush AKA a large dry brush gives a great effect
I understand the feeling of breaking your nozzle and I'm currently waiting for a new one
Mel is awesome!
My 9 year old son Nolan watches your videos with me. He called your containers "epic".
He was really excited when you said you like to keep the struggles of builds in. He literally said "hey that's like me" when you said how things dont always go smooth.
I really value that I can watch your videos with my kiddo and that your content is so family friendly.
Amazing work as always.
Thanks for sharing.
My ten ywar old also named Nolan loves to watch your videos. Together we are working on a small village together. This is for a story i am telling him and my other two small children they are involved in as characters.

Beautifully said!
I have told many RUclipsrs the same thing. I don't want to see anyone struggle or fail, when you see people that are professionals run into a problem and how they tackle it it can actually be very inspiring. It shows us that people, that we admire, also run into problems. I personally like when RUclipsrs leave some of the stuff for the videos.
"hey Barb, the neighbors outside let's go say hi. Looks like he's gonna play with his kids' toys. Oh he's sitting down... Yeah, yeah he's alone. Now he's got a gas mask on or something. Barb, call the police."
"I can hear every German screaming..." :D
Thanks for your understanding. :D Metric all the way! ;-) ... except for TVs and tabletop hobby...
German scream
"AAAAAAAHHHHHH"
We even messure houses in Millimeter 😂😂😂
@@brotkannschimmelnwaskannst604 Here in Argentina we also use metric for construction too xD
i was totally screaming internally xD
As I also mentioned in the BMC discord server before, I found a new friend in the inches. :-) To me its much easier to handle fractions like halfs, quaters and eigths of an inch, than handle 10th of a centmeter. The inch fractions make lots of things much easier.
Finally Jeremy didnt really mix the systems. He just used another ruler with cool 3/16 inch marks. :-D
I'm American and I can either use Metric or Wrong
These look great! A little tip: I find paper stencils sometimes behave a bit better by just (very) gently sponging on your stencil colour, rather than spraying or airbrushing. It also sort of adds to the weathered look for builds like this :)
I was going to make this same suggestion. It works great if you're after a weathered look.
"BMC", good old Bulk Movement Containers; safe shipping to where you need it, when you need it.
Those look great; especially given the troubles you had.
The best tutorials I've watched are the ones that show problem solving. NOT a step by step breeze through of a project or technique. Great work, and I think the new style is perfect.

The new style is awesome. Kinda similar to Adams one day builds on Tested.
Oh yeah, and the shipping containers look great too.
Thanks for being as real as you can be. I think this is my favorite building video that I've seen in a long time. Great job!
Gluing pasta on paper, a skill decades in the perfecting.
If you are needing post modern scatter terrain I know an easy one. Take some half inch dowel rod, and cut it into half inch tall little peaces(Cut clean as possible). Now find a packet of the micro black rubber bands they use for hair ties. Roll two of them inwards about an eighth from each end and put two more right on the ends. Glue them in place and then prime and paint.
They look like oil drums and are pretty close to scale.
And I thought I learned nothing in elementary school.
You sharing your tips from when things go wrong helps alot, it shows the rest of us that are thinking of doing projects what works and what does not.
I can no longer remember which painter said it, but there was a famous painter (paraphrased) that said "to make a masterpiece you must first make a disaster". I appreciate watching you screw up and then figure out how to make that mistake work for you, or how to fix it, really shows you enjoy what you're doing and that there is history behind your talents.
woah they look awesome, and i like the format of not being "perfect crafts", i tend to improvise materials and techniques and found my self learning from the mistakes i make.
i think is less frustating when you watch videos of people you look Up to and found out that they strugle too at some point, it encourage me to keep it Up.
thank you very much, i have being following your videos since the end of 2017 and it have been an awesome path to start treading.
With airbrushing using a stencil, it helps to use a tiny piece of sticky tack where it needs to be held tight. Thats how i hold my stencils when painting hex patterns on my tau tanks.
Fantastic craft! I love Mel too. I’m in the USA and wish we were metric. Once while traveling across the country I passed a big billboard somewhere in the middle of my trip that said “BOYCOTT THE METRIC SYSTEM”. Stunned me a bit. Loved seeing your process on this one. I learned a lot. Thx.
That is the most concise, articulate explantation for the use of both Imperial and Metric measurements that I have ever heard. Thanks, Jeremy!
Designing anything from scratch always has its challenges as well as rewards. We learn from failures so good to see someone keeping it real.
The square bits with holes in the corners are for stacking them securely. I learnt from an article about shipping container housing (and the problems therein) that you have to stack those containers corner to corner because only the frame is strong enough to support the weight of a stack of laiden containers on the top.
Struggling with process, engaging with the materials, adapting to/overcoming 'failures'; these are terms we use when talking about creating art. Keeping those things visible to the viewer is a main difference between craft or profession and art. Its the struggle that makes it compelling. Thanks for being a great teacher, a great artist, and always sharing.
I really like that you leave the mistakes in. You can learn a lot more from failures than successes in my experience.
You know, I had been searching around for a couple of days trying to find how to build better looking shipping containers, and then BEHOLD! Black magic craft has a video on it! You are one of my favorite RUclipsrs of all time, and I appreciate all the work you put in to show us how you do things! Always great content.
I really like the process driven narrative, warts and all. Makes it much more accessible.
For crimping your paper, you could also use a paint tube squeezer (for artists) if you plan on needing corrugated material often. They also sell "paper crimpers" in the scrap booking section and while they are a bigger width, they are pricier than the tube squeezer. Basically the "wheels" of the crimper interlock like gears and corrugate.
Hey, a long time ago I saw a painting technique used by Boba Fett cosplayers and thought maybe it would work for modern terrain...
Basically there are spots on his helmet that has paint chipping. To get that effect, they painted the under layer, let it dry, then put mustard on the spots that would be chipped. They then spray painted the next layer and let it dry. The mustard spots were then easily chipped off to reveal the layer underneath.
I've never used this technique on terrain, but thought it might be worth it to pass on the technique in case you wanted to try it in a future build.
Mustard, toothpaste, and liquid latex are great chipping mediums.
Huh.
Ok, that's getting filed away in the Useful Drawer.
My dude, you can 100% tell the difference in your production quality going from part time to full time!!! You’ve really dialled it up to 11, great work.
I love that you also show when things don't always go to plan. It's certainly the best way to do videos. I think these have turned out great also!
Keeping it real by showing us where things go wrong is extremely helpful. Please keep this kind of content going! The containers came out awesome, even more so because you faced difficulty in getting them there.
Just wanted to say the reason I appreciate your channel is because you give it to us wort's and all. I like the discussion about the issues you had so that we can avoid them or anticipate them. Love the struggle, love your discussions -- thanks for doing that!
I personally don't play any modern games, but it's really nice to see you making what you really want to make, not what you think other people want to see. Cheers, Jeremy!
Those containers look awesome. Love the spaghetti solution. Made the doors look like those of an actual container. The little squares in the corners were not necessary to sell the look. Those things are just part of the mechanism used to lock the container unto a truck frame. Excellent work and thanks for sharing.
If you run into the wobbly stencil problem then your best option is usually drift painting it with a rattle can.
Just set it one the ground with the stencil facing upwards and hold the can at a 90 degree angle next to you and lightly let the paint dust downwards.
They look pretty good, those holes in the containers if I recall are for the lifting mechanism on the cranes that load them on the boats.
Rubber cement is also excellent for paper-to-paper. Basically instantaneous, though once the pieces touch they are pretty much stuck forever. Also, there are stencil brushes you can use, if you're worried the spray paint will get out of control; it's a round flat-tipped bristle brush that you use to stipple the paint across the stencil.
But yeah. Showing how things go wrong and how you recover from them is more useful than a tutorial where everything goes perfectly.
Really like seeing the story of creation.. not edited to make it a perfect tutorial. Keep this style. Please and thank you
Pasta... You madman. I work with a lady from Ontario, and we had to make a lab practical for our zoo students a couple weeks ago. It included measurements with a tape measure. The Imperial system blew her mind. Canadian carpenters and American zookeepers apparently need to both be comfortable with ambi-measurements.
I had to build a life size gorilla out of card board for a class a long time ago and I will never forget what my teacher told me. He looked at the piece and pointed out the area where I started the project and said “ I love this area, I can tell this is the area where you were still figuring it out” it stuck with me. When you make something you consider art, you not only want to tell the story of what you made, you also want to tell the story of how you figured it out.
This is a good project for someone with few resources who wants to fill a table. Those spaghetti remind me of Bard's Craft channel. He uses lentils, macaroni and other easy to find things for his builds. He even made a dragon out of sticks and pine needles that looks totally rad!
I do enjoy a more vlog style chat video. Liked this format where you showed us your struggle and your thought process, and explained the hiccups you had.
The holes in the corners of the containers are lockdown holes.
There is a turn bolt that can be used to allow them to be stacked on each other, or even on a train or truck flatbed, and then allows them to be locked together.
The holes on all the corners are used when stacking containers on ships. Nice to see someone make both "20ft and 40ft" containers good job sir. Also using a stencil and a sponge to paint the lettering will help prevent the paint bleed.
Hey there BMC!
Just a tip from a guy who occasionally makes props and a few terrain pieces here and there:
Use toothpaste. Get a glob of it on either an old toothbrush, or a napkin and tap it on the rust layer, then put your top coats on. After everything dries, all you need to do is rub it off, and it looks very organic.
The secret is to keep the glob of toothpaste thicker in those areas.
Also works great for paint chipping effects.
Learned this from the Mandalorian Mercs and Bill Doran
Happy crafting!
To get a good seal on your stencil you could make the stencil itself from corrugated paper as well. You may have to mirror the logo to place the stencil face down, if the back of the paper is flat.
A sponge or stippling with a brush could also work as alternative to airbrush or spraycans in a pinch.
Great video.
" The Real Struggle" style of your building is WHY I watch you. Plus I just love the sound of your voice.
In the US, we used a lot of metric measurements in CAD
Professional carpenter? Then you should make a video building a spray booth :) I'd watch!
When he said that, I was thinking the same thing!

Snafu is the way forward damn sight more informative and definitely more entertaining. The fact that these still turned out to be "good enough" is testament to your skills and gives us all something to aspire to
I totally agree that seeing the struggles helps. We all have to slog through the process (even when you've been doing it for years), and seeing that can only help those who are just starting.
Always a 'thumbs up'... :)
The holes are top lift, and anchor points. They look awesome!
This was a fun build to watch - and seeing your mistakes and frustrations is very helpful as it shows that you can fumble, make mistakes and still have a great looking finished item at the end of it all.
Great job. For the locking handles I would use coffee stirring straws. They might be the right size.
I enjoy the story of the crafting. It gives me something to aspire to instead of just instructions.
Great video and I love that you show your struggles and f'up's as you go. You looked adorable sitting at your kids table 😆
Next time you make a stencil for the airbrush, try to make it out of painter's tape or blue tape. This will make a stencil that will not move when air is sprayed on it and to can be used multiple times. If the image is big, try to overlap half of the tape with another trip so you will have a bigger area to cut out. This will also make it stronger! One last thing, if you fear that the paint will be removed once you peel it away, try to stick it on a t-shirt so that it will stick less, but still attach to the surface you wish to paint
just an idea for those of us on the cheap side, velveeta boxes make great shipping crate bases, and you get to eat!
Dungeon Stackers of the modern world - Shipping Containers!!
100% agree that showing your mistakes and work around is more interesting for the viewers. I feel like it makes a craft more accessible to those who'd otherwise be a bit scared to try.
Thank you for sharing the struggle! Problem solving and experimentation is a huge part of crafting and making. The containers turned out fantastically!
That's what I like your down to earth and I love your builds you show how the real world of crafting is and you only learn by doing
I liked the argument for one Measurement system which is basicly him saying:"because it's better and im used too" XD
I think this is my absolute favorite video you've done. Super inspiring to see you push through the difficult parts of the project, it helps me do the same. I'm definitely going to bang out a couple of these once I get some corrugated paper.
Better to see the errors you can come across and how to overcome them, keep up this style, works really well for learning the true steps
"I can hear every German scream"....you're so right! I did xDD But let's keep that aside. ...I really like the new style of your videos, which show much more of the process. Very nice!
I am definitely enjoying the modern and sci-fi builds. Thank you showing us the true struggles of crafting.
I need to get a set of Shipping Containers done. Thanks for reminding me, now I have to add another thing to my ever growing craft mountain.
I appreciate the failures and honest commentary as much as your homeruns! Well done, sir!
Corrugated paper. I would have never thought about that. I know what I'm doing next with my next 40k terrain building.
Yes. Thank you for showing everything that goes wrong. Just excellent!
Just wanted to say that I appreciate the format of this video
Ah spaghetti, the most fundamental of pastas and apparently a decent crafting tool as well.
You've actually delved into my realm of work now. I am a truck driver and while I don't transport those shipping containers I am familiar with their design and function. That is why I am sadly unable to contribute crafts to my game table anymore though.
That being said, I still love the work and I hope that my schedule opens up again so that I may do some terrain for my players in again.
Now, if you'll excuse me all this talk of spaghetti has made me hungry.
I have never played table top games, but heck i'm addicted to watching these videos!
I love those blurry stencils--strong video game vibe! Might be tough to re-create, though. Great video.
It's always in the details! The details on the ends of the containers truly sells the build.
I love that you let us see you build it as you build it!
One of my first tries at building things was some containers, i used some boxes and corrugated paper. Love to see this video going back to basics.
Another amazing build! Would love to see more apocalyptic terrain
The story blogs with the real life hiccups are great! Keep it up!
I enjoy most of your stuff but the more modern scifi videos are really working for me. Keep up the awesome work thank you.
Macaroni art! The absolute madman!
They're perfect
Great credit to Mel, love your approach to keep it fresh
I enjoy your thinking outside the box. My way to build.
I love the edits lining up the sound of the building with the music.

Paperclips. I'm commenting now before I watch what you did, but the first thing that comes to mind for a solution now is paperclips.
Edit: Bruh, sketti? really? XD
This is a great build. It’s builds like this that keep me coming back. I love the use of everyday stuff and simple items that get stellar results. One of your best. Thank you!
for broken through rust I apply a bit of some kind of gel where I want the rust to "eat through" and apply my paint, then wipe away the gel, leaving the base layer. I use some acryllic paint to make the edge of the paint thicker and then apply "rust" paint by brush in the space.
I only just got into the hobby, and your videos have been my favorite to watch! You have such a pleasant and relatable presence, and it's easy to follow along.
100% agree with your final thoughts. I like see the hole process with the problems and all things. That's why I like your channel. Big thanks!
Great video dude. I like the imperial/ metric crossover. I appreciate someone showcasing the struggles instead of just all the highlights. Thanks for the motivation 🤘
Nice work. It was nice to see the speed bumps that you run into and ideas for solving them.
Great stuff as always.
I know I'm probably late to the game here, but when I built your mage tower I actually used the same glue sticks, foam to foam, and they worked GREAT! You DO have to weigh the piece down for it to dry completely, and it holds extremely well so long as the surface area is there for good contact.
Just a note for future stenciling: you can use poster tac or double-sided tape around the borders of the stencil, in between the stencil paper and the object, to keep them from fluttering from the airbrush. I know most double-sided tape is pretty strong, but you just need a tiny sliver to keep it together.
These are great. The speghetti was brilliant!
I copied what you did, but with one difference.
After the “rust coat” I sprayed on a gloss coat. Think of this as a “save point” that protects your work so far. It helps keep the hair spray/chipping medium from drying into the corrugated (porous) paper. This extends the chipping working time. It also keeps the underlying fibers from fraying and exposing the paper once you wet the project to start chipping. A problem I had because I was using a pretty stiff brush. I had to start all over. Hope this helps.
I do like this step by step honest style.
The mistakes you make and how you correct them teach me more about model building than a ‘perfect’ build. The main thing is that you show me where things can go wrong so I can spend extra time and take more care on these spots.
Please keep up this style of video but feel free to mix in a model special if you need a break from warts and all 😃
I can only agree with struggles and changes during the crafting process. But even the result is sometimes different than original plan, the these changes and adjustments done during the crafting process are very valuable. People are learning all the time, nobody is perfect and this video shows it very nicely. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Jeremy - thank you so much for not editing your struggles out! It's always a joy and inspiration to watch BMC, and even moreso when you give us the "Real Talk" on how stuff can not work out as planned.
Seeing you deal with/discuss the struggles that plague us as crafters; and how to fix them is a MASSIVE help.
Thank you so much for all you do!
The best method I've found for applying stencils is to use cosmetic sponges. They're much finer than normal ones and don't generally leave a 'sponge' texture unless the paint is very thick. It allows you to push down into the stencil and avoid having it move as much.
really enjoyed this tutorial, however I will take the extra time to put the square lifting/locating lugs on each one, then they would be spot on!
I half expected him to paint on black holes at the corners later in the build.
They look amazing. I use ikea or action anti-slip mats for corrugated steel. They are way more durable and take spraypaint really well. And if you coat it with a silver can after black bombing it the rust color will go on more easy. Wonderful find those spaghettis. Gang Gang. Keep at it.
This is another great video, and I def prefer the realness of showing your thought process, and showing the struggles along the way.. It has a way of making me not feel like a complete failure all the time, when things constantly go wrong while crafting, unlike when you see channels that seem to make things "perfectly first try" and with very little effort
Should have used a paint brush and painted graffiti on the shipping containers. Like an anarchy symbol to fit the theme, etc.
The 3 circle symbol of Nurgle since he's running a DeathGuard killteam would look perfect
Hey another great thing to try for paint chipping is base metal color, protecting coat, then stipple on mustard mixed with rock salt, while that is on spray top color. After its dry gently rub off the mustard mix and then seal and add rust effects. I used it on mandalorian armor cosplay and tried it on terrain recently and it worked great. Hope it helps.
