Your videos are addicting

Another good un Mel.Love the foam traps.Just shows what you can do with "cheap" stuff.Keep it up!!!

To help with the smoothness of the clay ones, you could take them out before they’re fully dry and texture the outside with a ball of aluminum foil.

I never thought of using the seedling containers or the ice tray. Very cleaver!

Mel if you ever make any t shirts can they say "Get Flocked Up" on them? It would be a fun play on words if you know what I mean

great, love the use of Ice Trays

A great one, Mel! Thank you. Also, just wanted to share that if you play any GW games and get their ForgeWorld stuff, the hunks of resin that are often attached to their larger parts make great tank traps as well. Almost the perfect shape, and a nice resin to boot. I'll try to toss a pic into the FB group! Keep it up!!

Another great video Mel, well done mate. I must admit that I love these how to make videos, they are really interesting and super useful too. Is there any chance of doing something more village like in the near future? Perhaps a couple of roads crossing with some sign posts and a bus stop, a little bit of pavement, maybe a small wall of a churchyard etc....that kind of thing???? I think it would be interesting and useful to a lot of people. Many thanks Mel and have fun mate, Joe

Brilliant. And its all homemade, actually, i didn't add grit because I use these models for scale RC battlefield like you might see at the RC RC RC! channel so i used the clay models because the I tried the egg cartons but they broke under the tank. These are Amazing, great job.

Like a warm snuggle comfort blanket, your videos are great. I've used the egg box method myself before. No idea where I put them though. The foam ones were really good and love the paint jobs Mel.

i love the fome Idea they look amazing I try to make some on the weekend I love all your work

great idea Mel

sou do Brasil e estou aprendendo muito com você. Muito obrigado pela dedicação

Those would make good bases for statues or monument or a technique for making tombstones.

I have never seen those egg boxes in my entire life, here they are round

Is it possible you could do a tutorial on making industrial themed bric-a-brac for 40k/used future type stuff Mel? Stuff along the lines of pallets/mining stuff... the type of detritus you might find in a work area, empty pallets/stacks of empty pallets/pallets with building stuff on????? Cheers mate!!!!!!!

Really a great job, I can especially like the Ice tray idea ... good one ;-)) Many thanks for you'r all ways inspiring and well illustrated video's. Thanks for showing and keep up the good work ... ;-))

Love the DAS traps, if you had the right shape of ice cube tray, they'd come out amazing I think. Best of the three, in my opinion. The stippling gives them a lovely realistic concrete texture. Only thing you might want to do is to darken the grass around the traps, but that's not really the point of the tutorial. Great work!

Another thing you could do is set clay in the planters. Then you get the extra weight and good shape.

good video!!! thats very easy to do and playable in a lot of wargames!!

Another great tutorial. Thank you. Tony

perfect just what I have been looking for - starting a new project with my son, building a WWII game board for the World of Tanks miniatures game. Please can you make some new tank battle ground objects?

buen trabajo!! good job! un saludo desde España.

Very cool

Awesome trapsThanks for the tip on where to get the high density foam from!

Late to the party, but love your videos. Great stuff.

you should add bullet holes but I want to make on with the foam the flower pot things don't look to good in my opinion but the ice cube was good too but I loved the foam

I'm guessing you could fill the ice cube tray with Hydrostone?

Will definitely be doing some of these. I've wondered about using plaster in ice cube trays and how it would work. Have your tried that?

I love your videos. Gives me great ideas. Was wondering why do you put sand or rough base when all you do is put flock over it anyway??

"Ready to flock it up" - 14:18

Amazing work mate, but kinda big, what scale would these be for tho?

just started watching so so good top man so skillfull mutch repect

I wish I could find that white hard plastic shite you use for the bases.

Hello, please tell me, from what material do you have a base? On which grass is then poured

Hey Bose, open question: How would you make a tumbleweed? I'm working on a wild west game and it seems a shame to not have some of those blowing around.

Hi Mel ! Great video as always !! :) Could you (or everyone else) tell me what kind of material do you use for your bases (and the thickness too) ? I'm from France and I do my best to try to understand what is it, but I don't get it ;) It seems to me that it's a sort of PVC, but I'm not sure. Anyway, English friends, please reveal me that secret ! Thanks from Brittany ! :)

Oh Mel, I realise that I'm commenting on an older video, but I was wondering. Have you done/considered doing anything for snowy areas? Because I feel like it'd be rather interesting! Great work as always by the way! It's half 1 in the morning but I'm hooked on your videos!

Would these work for 1/72 scale minaitures?

Crack on! Great little walkthrough, but I have to know what "Dad=6.5" means!

where do you get your bases from?

These traps, they are used for scale dioramas 1/35?

Got Any tips on chefpsykolog 15 mm dragons teeth?

but... one question, in the second option, can we use chalk?

mels most used word is yea? after every sentence lol

Ok Mel, I think ya missed a golden moment. Your videos used to have more "reality" in them. When you encountered the planters sticking together, you cut and went forward. I think it would have been funner to watch you struggle a little bit. Just leave it in. The quality of your videos has gotten up to professional standards... but they seem a bit rushed. All these cuts and fast forwards are good for the tutorial aspect, but what about the entertainment value of the videos? I know its a fine balance. You dont want to have anybody get bored, but by the same token our attention span isnt so short we cant enjoy YOU having fun too. Or suffering a little, like the rest of us. I hope you know what I'm trying to say, but I have been working on keeping my comments shorter. ;-)

In the future, I would love for you to touch a bit on trenches

Dude say yea some more
