I've been watching your videos for a few weeks now and they're awesome. Thank you for providing so much detail. What do you use for hardening the XPS foam? I think it was sculpting paste with cellulose insulation and drywall. I'm using foam to build a wall but it breaks easily and I'm trying to find some way of toughening it. I also had a go at making a roll mat with caulking. Thanks so much for your videos, they have been a great inspiration and help.

I would actually just use these for a Stalingrad game. Since I play Bolt Action, these kinds of scatter terrain would look great for various bombed out areas of Europe. Great video!

That was an insight into what we term battlefield rubble, as no area is ever dead flat, so even piles of dead soldiers, though smelly over time can be effective and in War there are always casualties.
@RACKSO993 жыл бұрын
Good stuff pretty realistic and looks playable. Some things I found useful for building bombed out urban terrain is to actually build the whole building or infrastructure in tact and then cut it up and brake it down. The broken segments can then be used for the ruble, can be orientated to make more terrain, create (textured) ramps and just makes it feel more realistic. Also being deliberate about the destruction adds a lot to it. Big charred craters and bullet holes work great. The gardening wire you used worked great for rebar, you can also use thin copper tubing for piping. Raid your spare parts, you can add insignia, equipment, weapons and body parts from any army to show fighting.

I would love to see a video from you on the playability of terrain pieces and what are common pitfalls that make terrain less fun in games. I hate seeing under-populated boards or terrain pieces that just go to waste (particularly in fantasy games). Conversely I enjoy seeing a decked-out board and terrain that integrates easily into the flow of a game. As a kid I only loved Necromunda just because it was the first game I could get shooters at high elevations.

This is the most I've learned from a youtube video about wargaming terrain in 11 minutes. The tip (pun not intended) about the pencil erasers itself is awesome. Likewise, sprinkling the tile grout with water to make it flow and harden by itself randomly is great, as is the tip about the acrylic gesso. Lastly, the terrain looks super cool and very useful. Thank you for sharing! One question: which pastels are you using to do weathering with?
