hi
Can you please tell us in a next video how u lost your finger or where you born without?
@@Lakkieduif I think she’s said in her make a new finger vid that she lost it to a sawing accident
Hey Martina,are you a "Weirdo or Warrior?" (An Aurora fan that is)
I SEE WHERE THIS IS HEADING… 5 years from now Martina and Hansi begin building a real-life castle to live in!!!! Wouldn’t that be magical?!?
The wizard tower was actually an architectural model not just an art project.
Shadiversity collab?!
@@lordzoltan8903 God no, I hope not. His brother, though. That'd be great.

@@TheBlakus420huh
I’ve been looking for a house to buy, and now every house has me thinking “Okay but where am I going to put the wizard study with a spiral staircase?”
Right? It's a real dilemma.
Lol
So true
I’m losing my mind at Aaron wearing a full vent hood for protection while cutting wood, and then Hans not wearing a respirator while hot knifing foam!!!! The true dichotomy of man.
I love how you went from making miniature foam castles, to larger foam castles, to an entire foam room
Eyyyyy it’s finished! It was so awesome seeing this being put together piece by piece, turned out AMAZING! Shout out to Aaron!
Thanks for the awesome Unreal scene and the help setting it up!! 😄
Haha thanks William! It was great to work with you again! And if you ever need your studio filled with foam dust I’m more than happy to help!
u guys are the most talented people ever. nice work and great collaboration. highly talented people 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
you have an awesome last name 😂
You are amazing ! This was incredible to watch , you are all so talented !👏👏👏Very cool result!
So glad you included Richard P. Astley! My favorite author! People have told me I watch too much of your channel, but I'm never gonna give you up.
LoL
Wait, you actually built all that? Just stumbled upon your channel today, and while watching another one of your videos, I immediately thought that must be green screen, and gave it no further thought. Then I watched another one of your videos and noticed that the background looked more convincing than mere green screen trickery,, so I started digging a bit deeper and found this video where you actually built the whole thing. Amazing!
Martina really looked at all the miniatures she's made and said "Yeah but how can I live in there?"
But it seems like just a couple Months ago she did the “new” studio, with all the little Scrolls and stuff. And I thought *that* was magical! At the end, when she said now she wants her house to look like that, I thought just use all the stuff she took out of there. But of course she won’t.
@@hopegold883 what do you mean?
She's already tested moving into a model with the digital version of her castle. I suppose this was a natural step.
There's a reality TV show about home makeovers, and in them, sometimes they'd do the kids rooms. Being kids, they had excellent taste, asking for things like racecar beds and princess towers. As a child I always wanted to be on that show, so I could request a wizard room. This is that dream realised.
what was it called
I think I know what are you talking about but unfortunately, I don't remember 🙁
@@mikaeldani2383 Extreme Makeover?
@@nnnnnnnnnn5654 I believe so
Lol... you mean this is that dream realized for someone else!
Dang it now I need to make an IKEA wizard for my DND campaign. I'm talking his spelling are all the names of IKEA furniture. He is a conjuration wizard because IKEA furniture is so quick and easy to make. And it would just be supremely funny to have a wizard just summoning coffee tables above his enemies dropping them like Wiley Coyote dropping an anvil.
Your dog walking up and down the stairs is just wonderful
The fact you put a lot of your patreon supporters on the books is absolutely nifty and wonderful. Now you are surrounded by your supporters and if that isn't wholesome I don't know what is.
Every simps dream

@@jasonnelson9141 - I’ve been paralyzed my entire life and still make jokes about it at 27. There is no limit to our jokes.
I wrecked my leg good and proper some 9 years ago and it didn't heal right, so I'm bound to a brace for the rest of my life as my joint will never be strong enough to bear my weight again. To this day I still crack jokes about it and am debating making my brace several "skins" to make it look steampunk, or cyberpunk, or even straight up mecha. If I'm stuck with it for the rest of my days I'm damn well gonna make it look cool!
This is my third time watching this, and I’ve just realized that their new virtual window- with its various possibilities for diverse scenery- reminds me quite a bit of the door to Howl’s moving castle; a gateway that can shift space to change locations of the outside. In other words, I ❤ it!! So cool!
The set itself is already magical but the whole unreal engine vr stuff behind the window is truly next level
Martina: "I also cut out this round shape-" Meridia: "A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON"
I was looking for this comment 😂
Lol
I thought the same
My exact thought HAHAHA XD
Comments you can hear
Me thinking how long it would take to build everything with proper materials, meanwhile martina: FOAM.
Easy when other people pay for it, and you have a set designer friend..... 🙄
@@ckmoore101 jealous much? 🤣
Do you think it would take less time with real materials or more time? With unlimited resources, I think it would take less time to deal with real material, but I'm not sure.
@@Crowelephant I don't know man. Imagine building that intricate window design with real wood compared to just lasering it in foam. That's gonna take ages. Real wood work especially of intricate designs will take a lot of time. But yeah building it with real materials and actual functionality would've been pretty cool
Why not just cast it? Pretty sure thats how most intricate window designs like that are done though I could be wrong
This is incredible...... I love it. You truly are an incredibly creative artist. 1. Assuming you relocated your workshop tools to the other side behind the camera or something. 2. I would've liked to see the bench drawers and such be functional. 3. Are you using the dead space behind the prop display for storage? 4. As much as the dog seems to like the stairs, you should make a bed space up there for him.
I wish i had the tools, knowledge and time to do all these project you do, they're AWSOME!
She doesn't really have "tools". she uses whatever will work.
@@dorg9502I wish I had her resourcefulness and motivation!
The project takes a lot of time. But In terms of skill and creativity you can watch a video about how to do this process with smaller tabletop builds. Scale up from there. Please remember this is a set. Please don't make this irl if you want it functional or "safe."
I'm a book nerd and went through the titles frame by frame. 😅 My favorite ones were The Snobbit by Jolkien Rolkien Rolkien Tolkien and Defence Against the Dark Farts by Mad-Eye Booty. Legitimately laughed out loud for a long time-and it kinda made me want goat milk. Weird. Great job on this set, everyone!
Mmm… goat milk sounds good rn!
There are some really brillant ones in there! Writing Characters as Described in the Painting by Jazz Man is a fabolous KZhead reference :D
Tablesaw 101 with blood spatters on the cover made me chuckle as well and I thought was a great way of self humor...
and richard astley HAHAHA
The Never Gonna Give You Up by Richard Ashley tho-
I remember when Hansi was nervous to paint and now here he is teaching us how to do it!! This is such an incredible space! Well done to you and your helpers 👏👏👏
Nice! I noticed this set in another video and couldn't decide if it was real or greenscreen. The tracked window exterior was one of the elements that kept throwing me off. It all makes sense now.
8:35 ~ “That’s what she said!” - Hansi
I can't even put together a kinder egg toy without staring at the "instructions" for like an hour 😅
I feel this in my soul
How do u take an hour for something that fits in something the size of a frickin egg ❓😂😅
@drownedbaconboii28 don't mean to brag or anything but... it's a talent 💅🤣
@colinsouthern you definitely ended up on top in that situation. The instructions weren't good enough to fit your raw talent, and you exceeded expectations. I applaud you 👏
@@marian8867 I humbly welcome you to the club with open arms
I love the fact that Martina has Rickrolled us all in a literary sense! 🤣 loving the build too! 🪄🧙🏻♂️
We know she's never gonna let us down.
im so glad im not the only one who saw that
@@skylawrence6147 i just wasnt sure if that counts xD
Timestamp?
@Jeremy Thurman thanks!
As an academic librarian, who has worked in a lot of old libraries, I’m amazed how well that set design looks. You guys took a lot of great mental notes from Universal! I saw this in the dark Lord video first, and had to go back and watch this .
Challenge accepted... next game I design will have an IKEA Wizard. And thank you for the inspiration. Actually considering doing this with my home soon. Sort of a mixture of fantasy and Guillermo del Toro's Bleak House.
it's so nice to look at people who are doing something all the time
Феликс Лин. Why don't you do some work, then you won't have to look at others?
@@redblade8160 Not so easy when you're paid $10 an hour and have to work 12 hour shifts to survive. EVERYONE would be doing this shit if they got paid millions of dollars a year for it like her. Why don't YOU mind your own business instead of telling others what they should do
@@en2336 I mean, before they reached that height, they had to grind and juggle jobs. I could put my hand into fire that they have been working 12-16 hours a day for the past however many years they've been active.
@@redblade8160 ... but.... he clearly WANTS to look at people doing things... 😅 So "won't have to" doesn't make any sense, does it?

That’s like me and my adhd it’s just I don’t end up falling asleep 😫 it takes forever to sleep and for my brain to shut down lol
Its contrived, obviously
Tan hermoso tu trabajo!! Y me encantó la traducción. Pude escuchar en vez de leer y no me perdí detalles de tu cuarto. Saludos desde Argentina!!
It's so unreal! Imagine how many people would love to have photoshoots here! 🤩
Your generous use of foam means that your wizard library will be the first one in history that doubles as a floatation device.
Points to Hanzi for coming up with the absolute perfect "That's what she said" retort!
That joke is so old and needs to die already.

The office vibes
My mom and I were howling with laughter when he did that. It was so out if pocket from what we've seen of him so far. 😂
Looks like the set from a legitimate Film! I'd want my house to look like that but put a "clear" ceiling in that has simulated planets and a swirling galaxy (basically how you made the window but it's above you with the motion tracking too) that would actually be cool if you added that to this room or something :3
OMG this is so amazing. It must be wonderful to have a team of friends who share your vision! You guys rock!!!
So...a staircase that goes nowhere, books you can't read and a window you can't see through? . . . I LOVE IT!
That is... unless you're a wizard! Who knows what they ACTUALLY see at Nerdforge...
The Minimalist Witch. You won't "love it" if you lived that way for real.
Ever hear of the Winchester "Mystery" House in San Jose, California?
@@skagi4182 No, I haven't heard of it, have you?
@@redblade8160 yeah, I've been there....staircases to nowhere, doors that open to nothing, weird seance room. Pretty cool actually.
This episode has everything! Arts, crafts, adorable dog, home decorating, epic quests, treasure, painting, high-tech computer graphics, more cute doggo, 3d printing, and the list goes on! Congratulations to the team on making the single most Nerdforge episode of Nerdforge possible! I have no idea how you might outdo this one, but I'm looking forward to whatever comes next.
that dog had 1 thought during his entire life and it was "how to dog"
ok that screen behind the windows with the motion tracking is freaking on point. Absolutely amazing work all around. Bravo!
Martina really snuck in a never gonna give you up book and thought she’d get away with it!
I'm now moving frame by frame and there are some interesting book titles over there. "Eating Seeds Is Not a Past Time Activity" "How to become a Millionaire in 5 Simple Steps" - Non-millionaire person "101 Reasons to Stay Inside" "Creepy Beasts and How to Make Them" "Satanism is Pretty Cool" "If You See This, Type This in the Comments" There is also "Shrek Forever After"
I too saw some interesting titles such as The life and times of scrooge mcduck Scoop The Goop and DAMMNED STAIRS
Never thought I'd be Rick rolled by Martina. I Love love love your creative skills. Nerdforge videos are the highlight of my day.
She definitely didn't let us down or desert us.
There's also the "Table Saws 101" with a blood splatter.
I love how some of the books have "Richard P. Astley" and "Never Gonna Give You Up" on them! it's also cool to see how you put the names of your patrons on them as well. awesome work with this! the end result is magnificent! the definition of trust the process haha
I saw that
Caught that as well haha. Hilarious!
Get rickrolled!!!
How Many Volumes are you going to have? I mean, if it's as many times as I've been rickrolled, either by someone else or by myself.... we're gunna need a bigger library
Me encanta que hayas puesto un audio en español ❤ ya veía tus vídeos pero ahora es más increíble, gracias ❤😊
Martina, no reasoning necessary, it is your room. Whether you sleep in it or work in it it's still your room. And it turned out awesome!
how about installing a platform at the top of the stairs with a dog bed? if he likes to climb the stairs, he might like to watch you from up there
As someone who works professionally in the theatre industry, seeing you guys build a Broadway-worthy set brings me an immense amount of joy. I would love to stage a really dramatic, Gandalf-versus-Saruman kind of scene in there! Well done!
More and more, as I go from new to old and see more of your content, I feel envious of your home. Such open and clear living space and workspaces are beyond my funds to live with, and then such wonderful projects to theme it all.. so good.
That looks incredible, congrats! As a theme park enthusiast, I was happy you mentionned Diney and Universal, as you project is indeed very theme-parkish (down to the trip to second-hand stores for props, haha). Have you noticed, at Universal mainly, they do use the same perspective shift trick as your windows on some rides? The pionneer of that was Spider-Man (Islands of Adventure) which did that in 1999. It's called squinching, and it's not using head-tracking, but instead knows where the vehicle is on the tracks, so it's pre-rendered. But it works wonderfully! Also if you ever come to Europe, you might want to check out Toverland, which is pretty much filled with this wizard-style scenery; and Phantasialand, because it's plain amazing.
I’ll admit I laughed out loud at the blood-splattered table saw book. The whole studio looks amazing, and I can’t wait to see the videos you film in it. You guys are awesome!
Please tell me it’s not just me that wants a series dedicated to Martina and Hanzi buying a castle and turning it into their dream home? And let’s be honest, if anybody deserves a castle, it’s you two! 😊
I’d love to one day have a house like this but made with real wood and materials. I love mystical, dnd, fantasy like things.
This is the first video I had ever seen of this channel and it was simply awesome, the results were amazing. I love your work, well done and keep going with the proyect of remodeling you hole house with that style PLEASE!!!!!
I was so pleased to see Hansi taking a greater role in this one and he just perfected it with "that's what she said!" 🤣🤣
I almost spat out my mouthful of tea when he said that lmao
@@jodyknight I'm not sure Martina knew what to make of it either!
"That's what she said" and the response made my day--brilliant! Thank you both!
I might have rewinded that part one... seven times 😂
They are not that type of channel...
@@Vladimir_Kv I know. That's why it shocked me that they left it in--it was a nice glimpse of their playfulness.
The first video I saw from your channel, yesterday, was with the new scenary, and I really liked it. It definitely caught my atention
It looks amazing!!!! Great job guys!
Martina and Hansi turned their studio into a life-size diorama project
I have never been introduced to a cooler youtube channel that this, I love my aunt and I am so glad she showed me what you guys do a few years ago. You guys are amazing, holy crap
Respect to your fantastic Aunty. What a perfect channel to share with your niece for inspiration. I hope you have a great weekend
Amazing!
Your aunt is awesome.
I saw this background in other videos and I was completely convinced that it's fully built with wood and stone and actual books. This is without a doubt the most realistic looking foam build, it's wild and insane and I love it
"Thats what she said!" - Hansi, my new spirit animal
I love how even with just the foam unpainted it looks like a room in a cartoon castle
Another great method to use foam is to burn a bit with a light. It gets the superficial layer harder and looks like stone. Later you can paint it, or even cheaper, "paint" with concrete. I have used it and looks amazing. It is a really cheap and easy way to make "artificial rocks". But it is importan to use high-density polystyrene beacause is is harder. Is is a very cheap way to isolate the indoor of your home from cold and noises too.
I loved reading science fiction and fantasy books as a kid. You built the type of room I day dreamed of having
Wow this is absolutely stunning and magical!!! 🙌🎨🦉 It's so heartwarming to see the names of the Patreon supporters! It's like they are there with you in your studio. 💜✨
This is so beautiful and you’re all so talented but the whole time I couldn’t stop thinking how flammable that room will be😅
Martina has the energy of 100. She cracks me up, each and everytime she takes a project by the throat, and shakes the hell out of it, until it yields! Meanwhile Hansi makes her laugh with his quiet, calming, filthy humour. Both these folk ARE superduper. LL&P :)
I rarely do these type of DIY projects myself, but Martina is one of those rare youtube creators who's content I watch purely because I admire and appreciate the energy in these videos. The content is always well made, and the easy-going, goofy, creative and amiable attitude really shines through. These videos reminds me that everyone can practice self-amusement daily, and this is the type of vibe you want to carry into your real life relationships also, just to have a little peace of heaven on Earth.🐩
That’s just impressive it’s so beautiful ! 🤩
I love how you started crafting book covers and now you're designing and constructing entire rooms. I can only imagine how much bigger and more elaborate your future projects will be.
The amount of work you put into this is amazing, definitely watching more of these videos in the future
At 17:40 when you start talking about adding clutter, the minimalist in me died a little
Wow... This is absolutely insane, and so inspiring. Not many KZheadrs can leave me in awe but you guys manage it consistently. The detail, the care, and all the time put in is so apparent and incredible, and the finished project just gives off the most magical vibes! It's fckin amazing!
totally agree 100%
You know what would be really cool? Since Nori likes climbing the stairs so much you could make a mini platform up there with a castle doghouse for him! It could fit the medieval theme and Nori would be able to watch Martina work from his castle! Too late now though obviously, I just thought it was a cool idea
Breathtaking. I LOVE LOVE your room everything is so realistic. I saw your room when you were making the epic book of time. I was amazed to see how the room was created. The window is to die for. Bravo... take a bow.
This was the first video I just watched of you, unbelievable how great the study turned out! Also love your weirdness and hair a lot!!
This project is one of the coolest things I've seen. I remember watching you when you really only made books and now look how far you've grown with your art and talent. P.s.- the Never Gonna Give You Up book was hilarious.
LOL, I saw that title!
I liked the detailed touch of the "Table Saw 101" book with blood drops on it 😆 And everything looks awesome as usual!
Timestamp? Edit: Nevermind, I found it. 23:21
Awesome setbuild!
"What the Fork? by Nate's Forge," seems like a book worth reading in all honestly
As an author of fantasy worlds, creating a space like this is a dream. While I may not be able to physically create a wonderful space such as this, it inspires me to work twice as hard to create a room that my mages can be proud to call home. You guys are such an inspiration and I would trust you guys with my worlds any day of the week! Love you guys.
Meanwhile, an actual mage's room: **just a messy college dorm, with empty mana bottles littered all over the place**
@@LordDragox412 facts, the difference between a mage and a wizard...wizards know how to put their laundry away...
@@chemicallyrandom6150 The biggest difference is that a mage uses a wand, while a wizard uses a staff. Also, important to mention, a wizard's staff has a knob on the end, a knob on the end, a knob on the end~

SO much joy! Revitalized my soul your channel has!
Martina has such maddeningly infectious energy. Can't help but smile even though I'm sick as a dog. The book titles were just brilliant.
Get well soon, this amazing video surely helps regaining your energy!
So as shop engineer making custom shop I was to say two things: 1. This looks great 2. This looks a giant fire hazard
Are sets like these fire hazards?
@@sandrahuault1850 depending the materials chosen. Did this use fireproof plywood ? And especially which foam did they use ? Did they use fire retarding paints ? Especially that there are lights and screen mixed inside. The risk is of almost instant fire propagation and toxic fumes from all the foam. If wanna now what I would be worried about just KZhead some * house fire propagation* video
@@bodotrenaud7441 Thanks for the insight!
