I think if Jeremy got a new sub every time Garmin says "Black Magic Craft base coat" he'd be at a million subs by now :D

Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum! An all pirate campaign would be super fun!

Armored Hammerhead ship was my "goto" in Spelljammer.

Super looking and classical in every way! my only nit pick would be that you mix the different levels on a ship... it kind of looks like the lower decks get mushed with the ships deck... I have wanted to make something along the lines of playable ships for DnD for years, but always got stuck as the whole ship to make was proving to be too tedious... now with the help of your video and the ship tiles I see myself able to manage my original plan! So thanks a lot mate!!!

Never thought of modularizing ships. How cool! These turned out so nice

I love seeing an innovative project, those don’t come around often anymore! Great stuff man

I was just thinking of making some of these for Saltmarsh and Spelljammer! Hell yeah. 😁🤙

Great to see an absolute beginner-level project to inspire new crafters. Jeremy at BMC used to be my go-to for this kind of stuff but he's sort of moved on from it a bit. Great job :)

This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for ever since I dropped my players onto a pirate ship(thru an altered teleport) in the middle of battling The Imperium! Thank you!

This project came out amazing! I think I'm going to add it to my list of ones to try for sure. Also, comment for the algorithm gods 🤘🏽

As a stickler for words (TechWriter), the names for the different pieces would be prow (front), deck (middle), and aft (back). I thought you would like to know. And that technique can be used for any sort of boats. As an old timer, the original Spelljammers was sailing in the Astral Plane. Of course, it expanded with the lastest Baldur's Gate as the Ithilid (Mind Flayer) ship emerged from a portal to gather people for conversion and being attaqued by Githyanki-mounted red dragons. If you have Ithilid ships, you have to have other ships that can battle those brain eating beasties.

Such a great idea. We just finished building 1 to 1 scale ships for our game, and I definitely wish we would have gone this route.

Those look legit! I hadn't thought about modular boats before, great idea!

Great idea! You could even combine these with regular dungeon type tiles for a dock or quay - couple of pontoons and you're set. So it's also useful for non-seafaring games :)

These were really great! I love the idea of making them sort like deck plans rather than crafting a big ship. Makes me want to go make some.

Brilliant man, absolutely brilliant!

really really nice and beautifull ships

These ship tiles look great. However, I think it would be a pretty tough first time project, mostly because of the curved sides/edges. I've been crafting for years and still find boat shaped quite tricky without a template.

Looks fantastic! I will need to try this! A great solution for limited storage, too! The various pieces could also be used to build modular docks. Maybe the bottoms of the ships could be done with stone texture if you wanted a stone wharf! Thanks so much for posting! 👍😊

This is one of the cooler crafting ideas I’ve seen in a while

This is fantastic and simple, thanks!

Nice one, looks like fun.

Awsome!

As home crafters we're always looking for "Un-mess-up-able" projects. This is a great jumping off point. The concept should work well for sci-fi gamers too. Thanks!

I'm making my own sea setting and really want to have terrains for the ships, this is awesome!

Love it

Love this!

Thank you for the inspiration! I'm going to start on my own Void Ship today! Peace.

This is great. I have been wanting to make some tiles but have not yet. I am so into sea life and pirates that this is going to be PERFECT! Thank you so much!

"Easy, goes down fast to create a tight bond" well now I feel called out.

New to the channel but Great job can’t wait to try this for our Skulls and Shackles Pathfinder game!!!!

These are amazing and will actually be my first DM Craft for my upcoming pirates campaign. Very excited. Can you tell me what size are the tiles?

Lovely setup !!! great craft ! Love it 😍😍

Awesome

Would never have thought about modular ships. Thanks, Garmin.

Awesome!

Wow, this is so cool!

Excellent project! simple yet great looking on the table. Additional partial decks could represent the captain's cabin, etc. Without a Proxon foam cutter, foam core could be used glued to MDF. Peel off one paper side and texture the foam.

I love this!

This is awesome! Definetly going to be one of my next projects! Thanks!

OMG why did i build a whole ship?! This is great now i can make them easier and can have ship battles or multiple decks. TY for the video.

This is incredible mate

amazing build. Could you make a template for the tiles?

Love this video. Definitely going to make this for my up coming pirate campaign

Wow! Such a neat idea! Thanks for sharing this :D

I'm so tempted to take aaaaaall the spelljamming ships and try to make a "map" of all the ships in the supplement. but uh, It's a lot. It's 16 ships, and yes, some of them do use similar deckplan shapes...but others are, more strange. (for example, the Nautoloid is huge, and has a bunch of unique things). However, this would *also* give me an excuse to make a map of the Space Dolphin (which didn't make it into the the book for some reason, and I think its design is really cool)

This is a great project. I built a few full scale ships a while back but only the exterior is playable. This is a great solution for if combat goes below deck.

Do you have any tips for making them look more like metal? I'm planning to make some for my dwarves in my dnd game (who make ships out of metal given they have an insane amount of ores)

When do we get a video about those unfinished (green) houses in the background? :) Thanks for the great videos.

Just found your channel and i gotta say i love your videos ! Do you think you could make a video about the different tree models you have and how you build them ?

Shout out to the awesome Snarky Puppy shirt!

Nicely done. What are you using for the water mat there?

This is awesome. Perfect for Sundered Skies!

I started making some ships like this. Never finished. I was using foam board.

How do you make Them so that they fit in a 1 inch grid? I would also like a tutorial for before the first step

What kind of phone are you using

Depending on how much time and emphasis you want to place on ship-board adventure and nautical matters … there's a LOT of variables! For D&D purposes, unless your campaign has a naval theme, width and length of ships, their speed, how many decks, how large of a crew is necessary to man them … all of that is variable. The 5e Spelljammer ignores all of that and gives ships a basically constant speed. "Who wants ship-to-ship combat?" Um, the players of Spelljammer, probably? My advice if naval themes aren't central to your game is aim for three kinds of ship: Smaller ocean-going ships, long/narrow ships, and big/wide heavy ones. In terms of speed/combat ability/crew … slow/weak/small, fast/pretty weak/medium, medium/very strong/large. That's a gross oversimplification because every factor related to ships, masts, rigging, length/width/displacement, cargo/passenger capacity, armament, crew size, and how fast the ship moves in different types of weather is a separate variable.

oh man.. i want to make this, but just got into learning crafting terrains and well.. you didnt show the painting process for noobs such as myself :( no sure how to approach that… (i dont paint) Did you do it like your cliff video? you mention drybrush for the second paint… :( when you say waterdown.. how waterdown? and just one coat i assume right?

Great video and great project. My current campaign is taking a nautical turn right now Do you still ever use Scale 75 Instant Color SIN-35 Endurance Brown to do one-step wood staining?

Forgot to ask.... did you use a template for the bow and stern curves or did you just decide what looked good through trial and error? TY again

What is the name of the material you use for the initial pieces?

Ok so if I counted right Front think and thin left and right total 4, back thick and thin total 4, midsection 3. Why you fixed the masts in place i have no clue but 4, stairs 3. Did I miss any of them?

What is the material of the foam

Where are the doors to the ship rooms?

“Black Magic Craft Mod Podge” LOL. We Wargames terrain makers have been mixing Mod Podge and black/charcoal color paint since the late 70s. Please stop gaslighting people!
