    Much like the ghost ship aquascape, I decided to go with a custom-built cabin for this week's video. What do you think about it? I thought it was a pretty neat idea. Also, be sure to watch to the end to see the winners of the 1M giveaway revealed! I hope that you all have an incredible day and weekend. 💚

      I absolutely love it! The little cabin looks lovely. Have you considered painting these little mini builds in the future? In the finished product they still have the same color as a wooden toy, which is fine if thats what you’re going for.

      You should make a refrigerated cold-temperature terrarium that thaws in the day and freezes at night to frost things up.

    I love it. I decorated one of my jumping spider enclosures with a little Christmas cabin and a small Christmas tree for the last month. She made her nest in the house so it's permanently a Christmas-themed enclosure.

    • @meta.aesthetica
      @meta.aesthetica 3 роки тому +11

      @Emmit Stewart I'm not suggesting that they are painted irl. I'm saying that 'real' cabins are usually a different colour. He even shows a cabin within the first 20 seconds, which is orange-ish, as an example. Google it and you'll see many more.
      It's a personal preference, I guess. As long as Tanner is happy, that's what counts. He is the one that gets to look at it every day, after all!

    • @emmitstewart1921
      @emmitstewart1921 3 роки тому +12

      @@meta.aesthetica I see what you mean. Most of the cabins I have visited were dark brown wood or grey weathered wood. Maybe he is waiting for the wood to weather to a grey color. Otherwise, a dark stain might work.

    Loved this build! The cabin was so cute and quaint. I'm surprised you didn't stain it for a more rustic look. The chimney was also my favorite part and the lichen.
    Congratulations again on 1 million and congratulations to the winners (I'm envious, would have loved that build for my son and I to create something together. Will definitely draw inspiration from it and hopefully do one from scratch)!

    Fantastic project. As a scale modeller my only suggestion is that if you do something like the cabin again in the future, you may want to consider using smaller rocks. They're noticeably out of scale when compared to the size of the cabin.

    The idea is really cool and the execution is neat. The only thing I would do different is add a light tea or coffee stain to the cabin. Give it a slightly more weathered look. I would think just brushing it on would be enough but not be over powering.
