Just found three good, relatively new, YouTube channels that feature a lot of scratch-bashing and creative modelling. They're primarily for wargames scenery and vehicles, but the techniques apply just as well to modelling.



First up is literally called Scratch Bashing. Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jlqW4x3JM8

Here's a vid where he makes an impressive crashed sci-fi vehicle entirely out of ONE dollar-store Water Pistol:

Next is JH Miniatures. Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLw0DghWzIZt_IQSdDQ-BGw

Scratch-Bashing issued a one-part challenge at the end of his water-pistol video. Here's JH's response, using an old computer mouse:

And last, Platypus Scotsman (I kid you not). Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNH8lkZP41NIps4hoQZEXpQ

Here's two vids detailing the construction of a sci-fi power-plant set:
