We continue our wilderness journey into the woods. See the forest terrain for the modular trees with rocky cliffs, thrifty hills, and more! Give your party the immersive forest they deserve (or maybe they don't I don't know your group lol) without sacrificing play view to boot.
Warning: The pun well for this video both flows and runs dry ha ha. You be the judge.

Representing just the lower trunk of the tree is the way to go. I think if you are more selective in where you cut your sticks (like at a node or near a y branch) you can depict the root flare of the tree.

@teritras41 Жыл бұрын

No joke even tho you use other channels ideas to implement into your builds (everyone does that don't feel bad) the way you execute it in your craft is god tier ! You're creative, your attention to details is top notch and your puns are witty and refreshing ! I cant wait to see what you'll come up with next ! Oh and one last thing, don't fall in the trap of wanting to pump out videos too frequently, make sure you enjoy what you do and don't stress about frequency. We much prefer few and far between videos if it means this level of quality !

and now I want to take a tree top and magnet and make removable tree tops and modular tree trunks..... Another excellent video, thank you! I made my attempt recreantly, but tried tile grout instead of proper soil....and that was not really worth it to make mud - better as a dry top effect! But I am getting better at the Proxxon getting consistent sizes! I bought several 2x2x1" "project panel" foam boards that were not full a 1" thick, so my half-inch thick tiles have a lotta cutoffs, but I'll certainly find a way to use those! I recently got into 3d printing, and discovered several folks who have files on sites like Printables that are specifically to help with magnet orientation and storage, which I always wind up mixing up, but the idea of cutting out a hole and forcing the magnet to flip is brilliant - absolutely will make use of that!

@raecheldoes Жыл бұрын

Yeah not gonna lie, that's in the back of my brain somewhere too. RP Archive has a tutorial on how he made magnetic tree tops if you're interested. Thank you for the compliments! I do want to experiment with "toppings" like grout for dirt/sand effects. Will probably come down the line at some point. I'm happy you're trying the modular tiles again and sounds like you're having some success! It's wonderful the community's support in making magnet-placement jigs, and I think Matt himself has made a few. Happy to propel his ideas, including the magnet-flipping one!

re: moss - aside from being where moisture accumulates, moss also prefers less light, hence it's on the north side of trees. Apply moss as if there's directional light.

You can also wrap your trees in Elmer's glue and 1-2 ply toilet paper to give it a wood like look. It's also perfect for making planks of wood for houses, docks, etc. Just take a sheet of card board, lather it in a thin layer of Elmer's glue, then lay rows of toilet paper over the glued areas. Let dry then cut the sheet of cardboard in strips of whatever width you want your planks to be (make sure cuts go with the grain). Then cut those strips in whatever length you want your planks to be. I've used this method since 1989 when making planks and still to this day (even though I use 3D prints now) still will only use this method for plans for docks, houses, etc as it is by far the realistic looking plans I've ever seen in terrain builds.

If you want the magnets to get a better hold with superglue, you can file the side you are gluing just enough so that it scratches the magnet and gives a better surface area. This works if your magnets are removing themselves when you pull it away from another magnet.

I am very impressed with the content, the style, and the obvious skills involved both on the terrain creation, and also on the editing side.

Thank you very much! I'm happy to inspire and excited for others to try them out too! I would definitely say the waiting game when things are drying is the most time-consuming. It's helpful to craft in batches like 6 tiles at a time so that they're all drying at once and hopefully by the time you finish one part on the 6th tile, the first tile is dry and you can move on to the next stage.
