Don't you hate it when you're trying to get some ice cream from the freezer, but there's a bloody monster in the way, and you're too socially awkward to ask it to move aside? Awesome work. I like a bit of mundane horror. Made me think about the short story _Gramma_ by Stephen King, even though that one doesn't have a monster like this.
I’m not certain how the “this is a typical basement” plays to the wider international audience. But, as a 37 yo US midwesterner, this is spot-freakin-on for early to mid 1900’s basements. These are the basements that taught us to fear the monsters. And the 70’s/80’s era basements with the super worn tan couch, burnt orange carpet and wood paneled walls are were we learned to grab a fistful of polyhedral dice and slay the monsters!
It’s the quintessential basement of old houses in Canadian Prairie cities, and I’d expect a lot of the northern US….but outside North America it’s probably not familiar looking at all, outside of movies.
It’s spot on for New England also. I love in Rhode Island. Those stairs going down could be my house, a 1948 rather plain Arts & Crafts 2-family bungalow my parents bought in 1983. Our basement stairs have a landing going into a shorter flight, and we have a closet under the stairs, as well as one directly across as you come down but it’s pretty similar. We also have narrow pushout windows. At some point before my parents bought the house, a shower/bath and wet bar were installed. A an old WC would definitely be appropriate. We no longer have either the bath or wet bar in our basement, although the plumbing is still there.
Something about the small tilt to the creature's head really struck me. Like, it could just be listening as the door opens and a meal is about to arrive, sure. But it also has me thinking that that thing is grandma--or maybe using her voice to lure the kid in, sorta like the cut ending to Alien? The amount of work and careful attention to detail really makes me want to know more of the story of this piece and has my imagination running wild. I think that's a sign that you truly knocked this one out of the park!
Granny was a Masque, and has decided that their grandchild should learn that consequences come from choices, and humans are made of their choices' consequences. And this particular humans is also one part eldritch messenger pigeon with shapeshifting superpowers.
The scene makes me think Nyarlathotep got his dimensional portals crisscrossed and he waiting in that basement for the old god tech support hotline to chime in how to get him out.
I find the idea of the monster just being a guy who appeared one day in this family's basement just chilling kinda funny Like someone comes over and is terrified but the family is just like "oh yeah thats jerry, he just appeared one day"
This is what happens when an actual builder gets into miniature dioramas. Planning, math, and miniatures that are within conversation distance of building codes. (No points off for not making miniature joist hangers!)
This is an early 1900s style house, no joist hangers back then. A house built in the era of joist hangers wouldn’t have wood posts or planked subfloor 😉
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial Ah dangit! And I used to live in an early 1900's house. I should have know that! I blame Gold Star Home Inspections, I've been watching his channel a lot on new construction inspections.
"A monster lurked in the woods before the mother caught it and trapped it in their basement. The monster commonly made noises that scared the boy, but the mother would reassure him that things would be okay, and would sing the boy a lullaby at night. Eventually, the monster learned the lullaby, and on a day that the mother was out, it sang the song, causing the young boy to open the door to where it was."
This just makes me want to see a "color from out of space" diorama now. Pulsating, fused family members, dilapidated farmhouse and crazy lighting included. XD
I like the idea of this monster just... Chilling in the basement. 0 malicious intent, just hangin' out with ol' withcy granny friend. Grandkid just happens to walk in... There's a start to a YA novel here.
We were laughing as you just kept finding more and more things to add, inspired by memories of grannies home! The curtain and then the curtain ROD and then you INSTALLED IT 😂😂😂 the result is cool as shit
You are amazing. A true artist and with extreme talent and vision. I’m amazed. Thank you for putting this video out there. This is my first video I’ve seen of yours and I’m hooked!!!!!
Be sure to watch all his back content. Even if you are not a tabletop gamer, it’s really fun to watch. Jeremy is very engaging. I personally just love miniature stuff in almost any form. I do occasionally play D&D and would like to try some terrain building just for the hell of it. I can always give it to my SIL. Although I do harbor fantasy of running my own game, especially since he doesn’t have as much time with two kids and a job as a licensed arborist. He’s always tired these days.
I didn't watch more than a few seconds of your video (because it's night, I'm alone, and I got scared), but I liked and subscribed. This is absolutely horrifying and amazing. Will watch in full in broad daylight with human and animal companions for safety.
This guy has the world's tiniest table saw! The attention to detail is mind-blowing. Dude - if you do work on real homes, I have a million jobs for you! What crazy talent!
I love this on so many levels! First, you went full contractor on this. That's awesome! I need to build a doll house for my granddaughter. You've given me some ideas. The only thing I might have done differently is that living room is screaming for an ashtray, and a candy dish, with those little, waxy, strawberry candies. This bar none is my favorite build of yours. It's magnificent! Chef's kiss.
Love all the little details and texture work here. Little kid is gunna have one hell of a shock finding Nyarlathotep just chilling down in the basement.
Omg this is disgusting i love it so much. I love how goopy the monster is. It would be a genuine horrifying encounter to have. Absolutely incredible work
Whats even worse is that's nyarlothotept, an eldritch being who loves tormenting humans. Think loki and satin combined but making them 1000 times worse.
PLEASE make more of these. I loveeee seeing all the detail and time that goes into these, and how you turn random supplies into something so incredible like this. The horror is awesome, I would love to see maybe some arg or analog horror themed dioramas/projects too! I think you could bring them to life so we’ll. Keep up the great work!
16:54 I do understand the have to stop myself vibe just covering the big monster with a slathering of BBQ sauce , BUT I can't relate on the fact of nostalgia as I never thought a living buffalo wing was awaiting to kill me in my basement...
I love everything about this... I feel my grandmas house and the 80s horror I was absorbing at the time. This also looks like the same universe as your build with the star wars monster. The little bits and bobs really drive this one home.
I love love love your dioramas. They convey a lot of technique and knowledge without always confining you to a particular setting or theme. Love your sense of fun and creativity. :)
Jeremy this is SO GOOD!!!! You captured the vibes so well. I think the water heater is my favorite part, but I adore all the tiny details you added to make the scene feel real and lived-in !!
Your fantasy builds are great and I love all the ways you figure out to make dungeon crawl staples cheap and easy, but this is a whole different tier! Every detail is spot-on! Just captures that 'fear of the basement' that nearly anyone who grew up with an unfinished basement must have felt!
As someone living in an old basement with concrete walls: the green was a bit too saturated in my opinion. My walls are a gross, washed out colour somewhere between mint and fern. On a more serious note though, this is wonderful! I love how much care and attention you put into each detail. Good work!
I use sandpaper for most of my carpeting simulation needs. It has just enough texture to look like it is really there. Sandpaper also works well for pavement. Your attention to detail here really paid off. Well done, sir!
This might be one of my favorite builds i’ve seen you do and one of my favorite builds I’ve seen in awhile. Of course, I’ve had a fascination for dioramas since I was a kid seeing them in natural history museums. I’d love to see more dioramas from you.
Just wow. I love the use of full scale construction techniques, it got my mind working. All the fun, real feeling details just pop the piece into realism. Great work, and it looks like it was fun to do.
I've got one of those little table saws. I too rarely use it, but when I do it's a godsend. It makes it so easy to cut lots of little pieces to the same length. Great for MDF too. A good investment.
What a great diorama. I love the colourful setup combined with the horror elements. Just awesome. The basementmonster and 80s flair gives me strong possession (the 1982 movie) vibes.
This monster clearly got out of the refrigerator, most likely it mutated from a forgotten turkey on Thanksgiving. Just amazing work, I think several people definitely recognized the house from their memories.
Super fun and instructive build. The one thing I notice a lot of diorama build channels do is always make their building placement line up completely square with the base; putting structures, roads, etc. at angles to the base makes a surprisingly more interesting result, much more like a random photo or POV of the scene than the artificial look of everything being lined up and square. Imagine this scene if it had been set at an angle to the rectangular base - not to mention simulating a "low camera angle" by tilting the model back so we're looking "up" at the monster! It's a great tip I learned years ago from a modeling book, and I highly recommend the technique to take your already impressive dioramas to the next level.
You give such great tips even to people who are not gamers. I'm an old granny who builds cardboard houses and I just love your site for ideas! Thank you.
Great video. Thank you for the tip on painting stripes. Outstanding effort on the carpet, molding and all the details in the basement. Your creativity is boundless.
Such incredible attention to detail. Fantastic! Really makes you feel like you've stepped into grandma's house. I mean, not MY grandma. Mine decorated her house (and, latterly, her apartment) with tons of decorations from Asia and Africa. Decorated fans, urns, jade, masks, wooden figures, metal figures with many arms.
Man, that poor kid is about to get eaten in one single SLURMP. Fantastic work, I love your attention to detail. And that water heater is seriously impressive!
Great tip on sealing mask edges with the base color before spraying the other color. I almost never hear anyone suggest that. And if you forget you can spray a regular sealer to do the same thing. I use Tamiya a lot so I will shoot the flat clear XF86 along the tape edges. I've even brushed on acrylic floor polish (Future). And that hot water heater needs to be replaced right away before the bottom ruptures. That is a lot of rust.
I've not been a huge fan of some of your other work due to the lack of detail in a lot of it, but I understand you have perfectly valid medical reasons for it to be that way, but THIS IS THE BEST MOST DETAILED THING YOU HAVE EVER MADE AND I LOVE IT.
WoW. Once again you went above and beyond to make an amazing diorama. I got Goosebumps vibes myself , the monster in the basement is the boys grandma and that's why he ain't allowed to go down their. Will she change before to finds out she is a monster?
Don't beat yourself up over the stairs. I've lived in a few houses that had stairs in much worse condition than those, so I felt right at home seeing your build haha
Oh man. I’m afraid to go down my basement stairs these days. My husband and SIL kind of shored them up but they’re still very creaky. Our house was built in 1948 and has not been renovated since 1988 when my parents redid the first floor kitchen and bath as well as knocking down the walls between kitchen/dining/living. Everything is falling apart. All our loans went to new roof/solar panels and my husband’s store. Fingers crossed stuff stays together awhile longer till we can manage another loan. 😂
while I absolutely adore your fantasy, scifi and grimdark stuff, this more mundane and 'traditional' miniature work is absolutely mindblowing! The time and effort put in to each individual detail really shows
Im late but i love small household things like old tvs, fridge, painting and i also love horror, and this is perfect. I can tell you spent a long time just looking at it and i just gotta say you did a excellent job.
@jeremy I hope you do more builds that demonstrate your knowledge as a contractor. It makes me feel like I'm learning how homes are built while watching a cool diorama build.
The accuracy of your grannyfication on this build has lead me to believe that you have, indeed, a Granny. I am however dissapointed the jar of stuck together peppermints was not represented. Wonderful diorama!
The only thing missing is a single hanging bulb. Amazing build!
With a pullchain broken halfway down?
yeah a flickering lightbuild would have beet the icing on the cake ^^
And the bodies underneath the floor
A little yellow lcd light would do the trick!

If you've read the stories, you know Nyarlathotep actually can shapeshift and takes the form of an old man, and is purely malignant.
That model of Nyarlathotep is just amazing. Awesome diorama that makes me think Granny is no longer with us. The crawling chaos has taken over.
Granny was a Masque, and has decided that their grandchild should learn that consequences come from choices, and humans are made of their choices' consequences. And this particular humans is also one part eldritch messenger pigeon with shapeshifting superpowers.

We've tried to convince him to pay some rent, but he declined, so we just ignored him

Well….stats what they are called lol.
Tell me that you used to be a contractor without telling me you used to be a contractor. 😊
Seriously, I feel like I learned something about framing when I watched this
Very cool. You should do more horror dioramas!
For real, that attention to detail and over engineering really sell it.
I came to make the same comment XD
I hire a bunch of people for minimum wage and bill the customer for 10x the labor cost.
I’m a simple cultist. I see my lord, Nyarlathotep, I like and watch.
Great job on the diorama like usual!

while I absolutely adore your fantasy, scifi and grimdark stuff, this more mundane and 'traditional' miniature work is absolutely mindblowing! The time and effort put in to each individual detail really shows
Im late but i love small household things like old tvs, fridge, painting and i also love horror, and this is perfect. I can tell you spent a long time just looking at it and i just gotta say you did a excellent job.
@jeremy I hope you do more builds that demonstrate your knowledge as a contractor. It makes me feel like I'm learning how homes are built while watching a cool diorama build.
Love all the details in this- it feels exactly like my grandparents' house! I know that basement so well lol.
IMHO... The coolest build I've see here, and BMC has done a lot of great work.
thats amazing, the attention to detail is incredable
The accuracy of your grannyfication on this build has lead me to believe that you have, indeed, a Granny.
I am however dissapointed the jar of stuck together peppermints was not represented.
Wonderful diorama!
Wow your attention to detail is amazing. Just discovered your channel and its brilliant. Best of its kind.
It's so obvious you had a crazy amount of fun making this, really fun to see! Just going nuts with the detail! :D
I love it! Looks great.
Loved this build, the details really tell the story, great job!
