So as a mini builder AND an actual roofer as my job.... that pizza box roof method is amazing!!!! I watch a lot of build videos and have seen a lot of mini roof tutorials, and I think about how roofs are ACTUALLY made a lot and that simple method you did is just the best mini roof on RU-vid bar none! Be proud of that one my son!

@EricsHobbyWorkshop 4 года назад

Thank you! Sometimes making a ruined version of something means you can cut corners, but a ruined roof needs actual trusses and individual shingles to look right from all angles!

@dougsundseth6904 4 года назад

I'd recommend either Magic Sculp or Apoxie Sculpt rather than Miliput. They're cheaper (around $25/lb or $5.60/Newton) and they set a bit faster (usually 60-90 minutes ... that would be 3600 - 5400 seconds in metric). And it's bass like the fish, not bass like a guitar.

@EricsHobbyWorkshop 4 года назад

Bass like the fish! Sounds good! Thanks for the putty recommendation. I used what I had on hand this time, but I will look into those other ones.

I don't know I'd you will see this comment so long after but... We have arrow slit windows on one of our barns, it was built around 1500 and has always been a farm building it was common around us to have a defensive able farm to protect again border reivers. We also have them on the ground floor, which is less common but not unusual on farms as they let the light in and could still keep people out. The Boarder Reivers would make an excellent mordheim war band worth reading about.

Sir Eric, you have outdone yourself (until the next vid, when you outdo yourself again)... that finished door you made doesn't just look 'pretty good' it looks absolutely awesome!... as does the whole build, you clever scamp. I'm English and I've had the heartfelt pleasure of working, knowing and drinking with several Canucks in my time so I love the way you like mixing your metric with that nonsense 'imperial' (Star Wars fans, I'm not talking to you, relax... I know we unleashed that on the world and then switched allegiances to the French SI system... forgive us and do the same, won'tcha) and we lurrrrrrrve the way you pronounce the letter 'zed' correctly (Pulp Fiction fans, I'm not talking to you either, relax). You are a RU-vid builders Gem and we want you to know it... keep it up dude, you're fantastic😎

@franmehe 4 года назад

Stairs!

@zachschroeder1796 3 года назад

11:21 I see you filled in the entire top floor, this is actually inaccurate. in a tower like this (one designed as a fortification) with the top floor is jettied, there is almost always a gap between the floor and wall to act as machicolations letting archers on the top floor fire straight down at enemies at the base of the tower without having to lean out a window. it's a bit of a missed opportunity since if you're playing a game like mordheim LOS is a huge deal for ranged attacks and having holes in the floor to give that LOS boost can be a game changer.

@EricsHobbyWorkshop 3 года назад

Yeah i know i was distracted when doing the floor. I have added that since

@EricsHobbyWorkshop 4 года назад

@lindybeige 4 года назад

Good piece! Casting the arrow-slits in Milliput seems a strange method to me. If you have one mould, you'd need to do a LOT of waiting for it to cure each time, and packing the mould takes a while too. I'd have thought you could make the slits out of the XPS foam in a tiny fraction of the time.

@EricsHobbyWorkshop 4 года назад

It was a strange choice. I wanted to try out the blue stuff, and it made the arrow slits more durable too. It also helped break up the monotony of working with foam. But no it was not by any means the most efficient course. Love your videos btw

Hey Eric, greetings from Toronto... From an American! Love the video. Everything was just perfectly proportioned. The steps are clear, specific and visually pleasing. Some nice deadpan dry humor so it's not too "stereo instructionsey" and that finished product! Wow I second what everyone raving about the roof is saying, most elegantest roofification I've yet seen. Its clear you really enjoyed this project and it shows, doing little carpentry is so satisfying, and it really helps to visualize it with your example. I would reaaaaally love to see you do some bric'a'brac and ubiquitous terrain "accents" like stone wells, crates, ladders, walkways and fences, maybe some statuary and or objectives etc. Anyway Kudos and stay safe

@GustafLagerqvist 4 года назад

Absolutely love it. This, and the ruined house video makes me confident I can give terrain making a try. I do wonder about varnishing it as a last step for solidity and scratch resistence. Do you know if regular spray varnish from an aerosol can could damage the build? Doesn't feel like it would being that it's all painted, but I'd probably be devastated if it did after all that work.

@EricsHobbyWorkshop 4 года назад

Varnish is usually ok if its applied lightly. I would avoid gloss varnish and go for something matte. Personally i very seldom use it, though i should
