I believed the first 2-3 'blood spots' but after that I realised the joke. This is why i like your videos so much, your not only skilled but you also make the videos funny to watch.
The swirling is called scumbling and it is a blending technique used to hide lines in brush strokes. This is particular useful for painting with a square brush.
I've seen all your works, but I'm leaving a comment for the first time. Your work always looks lovely.! It's soft and sentimental. And I love the irregular hills of Hobbit House.
I did the EXACT same thing with my temple of Anubis diorama a few weeks ago... coated the entire thing in black mod podge only to then paint every square inch of that beast light tan. Half way through I was like hmmm, I probably could have just used tan mod podge... Anyways, another great video as usual!
everytime you post i'm like "oh this is going to be cool, he's so good at doing small details" and then i sit here amazed bc its always even more minute than i expected... and you still get such intricate details! the door knob is THE HEAD OF A PIN its so tiny i can't even
I am still amazed how in each of your videos you start the build, and my reaction is "How the heck is this going to work?" then by the time you're done I'm blown away with how great they look and how intricate the details can be. Thank you for the mini lesson on alcohol and glue in this video. It never occurred to me before why you do it, but explaining it now it makes complete sense. Great job!
Hey, I start a lot of these things thinking almost the exact same thing, "how the hell is this gonna work..." And you're welcome! It's one of those things that's always shown/done but rarely explained!
@@NorthoftheBorder On another note, when I first got the gag with your bloody fingers from the wire tree reminded me of my all time favorite meme video "Blood?!? Not funny!" Also "It must be difficult to make a hobbit hill out of Styrofoam." "Actually it's super easy, barely an inconvenience"
I just LOVE every project of yours, but your humor really keeps me wanting more. That part with the tree made me laugh so damn hard. Keep doing what you do!
"If any of you pass by the Bag end... Tea's at four. There's plenty of it. You are welcome anytime.. Oh,and.. Don't bother knocking" Bilbo best character ♥
Bring a Bob Ross painting into 3D? Very interesting. The humor in this is hilarious. Think I might need to subscribe so I don't lose track of the channel
I truly don't know how you manage to top each of your builds. I keep thinking "this is the best one yet", and then you release a new video and outdo yourself. Amazing work Adam
@@NorthoftheBorder it is not only the building part which gets progressively better, your skills at making entertaining videos, are increasing rapidly as well.
My 10 year old son loves your videos! He came across this one and sent it to me as I am the only one in our family that likes Tolkien. This was so fun to watch! I really appreciate the attention to detail!
I love your humorous narration and the dry, dead-pan delivery. I've watched far too many sped up silent tutorials, so your witty dialogue is always a very welcome change of pace.
That is what makes a true mason. Cobble stone is to be pieced together individually. Not conveniently, but artistically. Love your work Bro. No H8 at all.
I love _everything_ about this. The sound design, the puns, the fine irony, the educational value, the narration, the blood, sweat and tears,... *everything.* Mostly the blood, really. ...oh, and the build is cool, too.
The final model was very impressive. Skill set and explanations are clear and amusing. The Dario Argento edit of the tree making section was an added bonus.
@@NorthoftheBorder I liked the fact that you took a diversion into the area of education with the explanation and the video addition of why isopropyl alcohol is used when applying stuff!!! . Feel that reciprocal appreciation is necessary.
This is incredible .I love all the tiny details that bring it to life.The tree looks so realistic too and it does look just like it’s meant to.your talent never ceases to amaze me 😊
Watching you put the amount of time and effort into each teeny tiny detail makes me wanna strive to be even better at everything I do. Thanks for being an inspiration all the time!! :))
This was some fine work! That static-y grass is ✨magical✨stuff, and so is your beautiful tree, despite the 🩸BLooDY🩸MesS🩸that were your hands. Lol. You have patience galore, Adam!!!
Heeey, how holey are your hobbit holes getting (weird sentence)? You've spoiled us with stuff like the fully interiored Tavern, so I'm expecting literally big things.
@@NorthoftheBorder Yeah buddy! You could say they're some holey holes lol. And thanks man, that tavern is till sitting on my shelf unfinished but is officially penciled in on my schedule for completion, finally. But yeah, hobbit holes galore on their way!
I love the sound effects and comedy just as much as learning how the madness leads to your amazing creations. You can't see it, but I'm giving a standing ovation 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Lung cancer 😂😂😂 On a serious note this is bomb I must copy you and have one of my own... You have the patience of Gandalf when he speaks in riddles and just waits for everybody to figure it out 🧙♂️
Stumbling across your channel early on a Sunday morning here in sunny old England, UK. You are brilliantly talented. AND hilarious! Can't wait to watch the rest of your vids! Thank you, Lizzie x
had to pause the video on the part where he was making the trees to comment about how i love all of the over exaggerated sound effects that are edited into this video. literally made it even more enjoyable and amusing to watch. now, On To The Rest Of The Video!
I have now watched a handful of your videos. They fly by. Good walk through as. And you provide some chuckles without necessarily intending to. Also good job installing the light BEFORE you finished the project and had to cut it in half.
The lung cancer haze had me. The One Strike Filler gag had me pml "The Tit". Then the tree making had me ROF in a puddle of my own wee. I really needed this today. Thank you
Thank you.... thank you very much! I was just saying this morning that my computer monitor could use a generous spay of coffee whilst laughing my arse off..... LUV the tree making, Amigo ! 🤣🤣☕🤣🤣
I wasn't going to watch the entire video, just get the idea behind what you're selling, but had to watch the entire thing due to your humor. Subscribed too. All due to your humor.
@@NorthoftheBorder Ah, a true artist. I do the same thing myself with digital art, delete entire layers because they didn't work as I expected, and never let anyone know they existed. It may still look terrible at the end, but they will never know how bad it could have been. :P
First video by this guy I have seen. Had it on in the background and did a double take with the hand injuries scene.... Subbing for the sense of background humour alone. Good work!
This is my favourite build I’ve ever seen EVER! It is so beautiful and the detailing is just absolutely jaw dropping...I love everything LOTR that you do, but this is just so special!
What sets your videos apart from other similar crafting channels are your hilarious sound and camera effects! You really add a lot of humor into something that can be mostly technical and dry. Very fun and engaging to watch, I honestly don't comment much but wanted to let you know all that extra editing really pays off and sets you apart! Love the channel!
Cheers from Scotland! Thanks for the support! We're getting there--I've been told UA-cam is a Marathon, rather than a sprint, so I'll just keep putting these silly videos out and hoping people watch them.
Cool acupuncture tutorial
You and Adam are my most favourite UA-camrs to watch. You guys always crack me up! :o)
I'm... _branching_ out...
Is that real blood?
Or even yours?
Edit: nevermind you just bleed terracotta paint
@@NorthoftheBorder At least you're not 'rooting' yourself.
Lol!!
The tree making part killed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
what a coincidence--it almost killed me too!
Dude honestly one of my favorite bits ever
I CRIED!! 🤣🤣
Yep. someone had fun with the red paint XD
That is one of the funniest things i have seen in a loooong time. Thank you.
Oh my god, I’m dying. The progressive blood loss cracked me up.
No, he is
It cracked him up, too...
The increasingly bloody hand though😂 Thank you for explaining what the isopropyl alcohol does!
It's also useful for cleaning up and tree-related messes
I believed the first 2-3 'blood spots' but after that I realised the joke. This is why i like your videos so much, your not only skilled but you also make the videos funny to watch.
The swirling is called scumbling and it is a blending technique used to hide lines in brush strokes. This is particular useful for painting with a square brush.
I KNEW IT. I'M AN ARTIST!
i also find swirling with a moppy brush makes it easier to get into all the little crevices.
@@NorthoftheBorder ....why have you ever doubted that?
"That artist is a little tipsy and he's scumbling all over the place."
I've seen all your works, but I'm leaving a comment for the first time.
Your work always looks lovely.!
It's soft and sentimental.
And I love the irregular hills of Hobbit House.
Thanks for watching and commenting!

yes i do think it is beautiful.
everytime you post i'm like "oh this is going to be cool, he's so good at doing small details" and then i sit here amazed bc its always even more minute than i expected... and you still get such intricate details! the door knob is THE HEAD OF A PIN its so tiny i can't even
I like pins because whenever I cut them into smaller pieces, I inevitably lose a piece, only to find it with my bare feet later
you cant even what
I don't know why but this video is one of my comforts. Whenever I'm having a bad day or feeling down, I find myself coming back to this video.
I am still amazed how in each of your videos you start the build, and my reaction is "How the heck is this going to work?" then by the time you're done I'm blown away with how great they look and how intricate the details can be.

This is a flipp’n adorable hobbit hole. Nicely done as ever.

Thanks for watching!
One of the favorite builds of yours!
I can just imagine Frodo passed out in the entryway!
@@NorthoftheBorder
Yes! And Sam hiding in the bushes 🤣
:0
the tears ran down my face at the part where you made the beautiful tree!
"If any of you pass by the Bag end... Tea's at four. There's plenty of it. You are welcome anytime.. Oh,and.. Don't bother knocking"
Bilbo best character ♥
The way you made the tree was very interesting and I appreciate the breakdown of why the isopropyl alcohol works with the glue.
you mentioning “happy accidents” now makes me want to see you make a diorama of a bob ross painting. great work as always adam!
Bring a Bob Ross painting into 3D? Very interesting. The humor in this is hilarious. Think I might need to subscribe so I don't lose track of the channel
omg yes!!!!!
I absolutely love your sense of humor 😂😂😂
Finally someone shows how to build a wire tree, safely and cleanly, without hurting yourself - much appreciated 👍
I'm all about safety here.
You should do more lotr models. And your humor has evolved perfectly. It’s nice going back and looking at some of your older ish content.
I truly don't know how you manage to top each of your builds. I keep thinking "this is the best one yet", and then you release a new video and outdo yourself. Amazing work Adam
Thanks! I'm glad you like them! I like to think that I'm getting a bit better with each video, so hopefully it keeps one getting better
@@NorthoftheBorder it is not only the building part which gets progressively better, your skills at making entertaining videos, are increasing rapidly as well.
@@TheHolm I suppose it's a skill like any other--and one I'm brand new to, so the improvements should be noticeable on a per video basis, I hope!
This Man Bled Out For Our Entertainment, Respect
My 10 year old son loves your videos! He came across this one and sent it to me as I am the only one in our family that likes Tolkien. This was so fun to watch! I really appreciate the attention to detail!
That tree gag was so hilarious, I've been wheezing for 3 minutes
I really love the little sound effect every time you squish a piece of foam into place.
Ooh, the little dropper squeezing noise is even better!
I absolutely loved the blood parody
I love your humorous narration and the dry, dead-pan delivery. I've watched far too many sped up silent tutorials, so your witty dialogue is always a very welcome change of pace.
Day off, slept in, a good ass breakfast, cup of coffee, and a new video. Today is a good day.
Just need a couple more cups of coffee to really round things out.
That is what makes a true mason. Cobble stone is to be pieced together individually. Not conveniently, but artistically. Love your work Bro. No H8 at all.
I love _everything_ about this. The sound design, the puns, the fine irony, the educational value, the narration, the blood, sweat and tears,... *everything.* Mostly the blood, really.
...oh, and the build is cool, too.
You are the only diorama artist I actually listen to. Love your voice. Love your teaching style. You should think about voice acting, and audio books.
Really appreciating the demo about the alcohol. I've seen that on a few channels and I had definitely been wondering what the deal was. Thanks!
The final model was very impressive. Skill set and explanations are clear and amusing. The Dario Argento edit of the tree making section was an added bonus.
I had to look up Dario Argento, but now I feel both educated and flattered.

Thank you very much!
The view... inside the hallway... you can see in to the little hallway.... my heart can't take it 😭❤ Easily one of my favourite builds ever.
Ya! it worked out alright after all--I wasn't sure if it the light would even turn on after all that!
@@NorthoftheBorder phew - the gods of tiny electrics were smiling upon you on that day, oh intrepid creator
Watching you put the amount of time and effort into each teeny tiny detail makes me wanna strive to be even better at everything I do. Thanks for being an inspiration all the time!! :))
It's so exciting to watch you making all those wonderful things that we're never gonna see!
This was some fine work! That static-y grass is ✨magical✨stuff, and so is your beautiful tree, despite the 🩸BLooDY🩸MesS🩸that were your hands. Lol. You have patience galore, Adam!!!
I know absolutely nothing about sculpting by I love your videos
Heeeey I'm going to be doing some hobbit holes coming up here! You beat me to it. Love your take and love the channel man! 🙂💛

I love the sound effects and comedy just as much as learning how the madness leads to your amazing creations. You can't see it, but I'm giving a standing ovation 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
okay so, I think my favorite part of the video are the sound effects. They really draw me in! Love it, Hobbiton is where I want to retire.
Basically, when it’s the lord of the rings I’m happy. So yhea good job, look amazing!
Lung cancer 😂😂😂
On a serious note this is bomb I must copy you and have one of my own...

Not my usual material but I thoroughly enjoy the voice over and the 'extra' footage - esp the tree .
That tree looks so good, totally worth the blood loss. Especially how the roots look gnarly n all that. Fun stuff dude.
Klingons in a Bag End sounds like disaster waiting to happen.
Have I mentioned my love for your sarcasm and humor.
Thumbnail already looks amazing, this is gonna be a good watch
Feeding the algorythm because you sir are the gift that keeps on giving
If you see this you probably went down the same hole as me. and watched so many of adams vids that your down here with me. - made in 2024😅
had to pause the video on the part where he was making the trees to comment about how i love all of the over exaggerated sound effects that are edited into this video. literally made it even more enjoyable and amusing to watch. now, On To The Rest Of The Video!
Took me a few minutes to adjust to the scale you built this at. For a while I thought your fingers were just MASSIVE.
I'm gona get a bunch of randomly sized objects to have in the background so you never really know--is this guy huge, tiny, or something in between?
I have now watched a handful of your videos. They fly by. Good walk through as. And you provide some chuckles without necessarily intending to. Also good job installing the light BEFORE you finished the project and had to cut it in half.

That was really something, it's that kind of videos that make me want to make dioramas again, thanks for this :)
Glad to hear it! No better time than right now to get back into it!
I wasn't going to watch the entire video, just get the idea behind what you're selling, but had to watch the entire thing due to your humor. Subscribed too. All due to your humor.
Welcome to the channel!
It still blows my mind how you get all of the sizes right
To be fair things get remade with some regularity--you really only see the pieces that are done properly/properly enough.
@@NorthoftheBorder Ah, a true artist. I do the same thing myself with digital art, delete entire layers because they didn't work as I expected, and never let anyone know they existed. It may still look terrible at the end, but they will never know how bad it could have been. :P
Super satisfying to watch you build this. I had no idea how tiny it was and the tree part got me.
11:50 - yes, make sure to remove all the little Klingons, they're much too violent to be living with hobbits.
"Making a hill out of a mole" 🤣 love the details you put in everything!!
are you going to make everything in the WORLD... It's adorable. Alright?
Well if I aim to make everything, at least it means I should always have an idea for next week.
@@NorthoftheBorder I will make something LOTR themed one day... so don't make it all
@@NorthoftheBorder I can't wait for the episode when you make my house tiny and adorable!
@@BillMakingStuff My understanding is that there's upwards of 3 or 4 videos worth of stuff to make in the LotR so there's probably some stuff left
Looks great. It was really awesome that you explained why you spray the Alcohol before dropping the glue mixture. Great video 👍

I still think about this one a lot. I hope you're having a good day, thanks for all your awesome work. :)
MAN that stop motion fence part really satisfied my soul
First video by this guy I have seen. Had it on in the background and did a double take with the hand injuries scene.... Subbing for the sense of background humour alone. Good work!
I love it, and love the "blood-loss" you had for your commitment to your craft!
Your sound effects and running commentary are GREAT!
Your videos grab my attention, your humor keeps me coming back for more
Unbelievable beautiful build and great humor, pratical progress. So fun to watch! Thank you!
This guy makes me laugh 😂 I love not only the art but his sense of humor makes it to where I make sure to leave a like on all of his videos.
This is my favourite build I’ve ever seen EVER! It is so beautiful and the detailing is just absolutely jaw dropping...I love everything LOTR that you do, but this is just so special!
Your videos are the highlight of my week. A big serotonin boost
I'm glad you're enjoying them!
Your humor in your videos is so what I watch you for... awesome lol!!
That was fantastic, the hands bleeding part was so funny! Pure comedic gold you had me rolling.
One of my favorites! Still look at your DIY work and man, its just the best! Stay blessed Amigo
Hi Adam! This is the first video we have ever seen of yours. You are amazingly talented, but your commentary is best. Thank you for all you do!
These are absolutely the best. I love them and your sense of humour and just ah. The. Best.hands down
This is the best video on your channel. Everything in it is perfection.
I’ve worked with wire in the past to make trees and other things and I laughed out loud to your “bloody mess”. We can all relate. Too funny.
Dude, this is the funniest episode I've seen!
Thank you for the IPA & watered down glue demo and explanation, very helpful!

Very fun and engaging to watch, I honestly don't comment much but wanted to let you know all that extra editing really pays off and sets you apart! Love the channel!
My favourite video on the internet
Love the Ryan George reference, your videos are amazing my dude, keep it up.
Your masterpiece scene of making a tree is what convinced me to subscribe.
Absolutely perfect, is the most beautiful Bilbo house I have seen so far. Greatings from Germany
The tree making gag was awesome! Great work on Bag End!
That's really cool! An orange flicker led hidden in the hallway and a little cotton smoke out the chimney would've really set it off!
The finished product is a very impressive and beautiful piece of art.
The addition sound affect and editing details makes the video much better.
Keep it up
seriously man, ur channel deserves more love! Good luck! and keep up the good effort! cheers from Morocco!
Cheers from Scotland! Thanks for the support! We're getting there--I've been told UA-cam is a Marathon, rather than a sprint, so I'll just keep putting these silly videos out and hoping people watch them.
THIS IS AMAZING. In my heart i can see the tiny scratched in brick detail around the door and windows ;__; I KNOW IT'S REAL
I loved how you used paint to look like blood 😂
making that tree literally have me crying with laughter in my chair. it's so silly but so funny! Beg End looked awesome, well done.
Thank you UA-cam algorithm for bringing me to my new favorite channel!
Ya! Thanks algorithm! You're doing fine work!
Brushing the paint in swirly motion makes it get into all the cracks and crevices 👍🏻🤓
