Carving Foam into the Most REALISTIC Brick & Stone Wall
In this video, I'll show you how to create a realistic wall by etching bricks and stones out of foam. I think it’s easier and better than assembling individual pieces. And, it can be used in a TON of different dioramas, bases, or any other mini project you’re working on.
This is my very first video so please like, subscribe, and share to get it out there. I'm always looking to improve so be sure to drop a comment too - I'll be answering all of them!

Thanks! It's super easy to do. I mix mod-podge matte (so there isn't a shiny finish when everything dries), water, and a couple drops of dish soap (to break the surface tension). I plan to do a more in-depth video on how to make this so others can do make it themselves. I hope that helps!
Go man go !

This looks awesome I want to make a stone wall dam, old England style, could I use this method?
@MiniCrafthobby

Oh cool-yes you absolutely can! I’ve used this method on a few different styles with success. I find it’s helpful to have a reference image to help get the look you’re after! You may have to cut your initial block of foam in a more slanted shape to start! Good luck!

Also I want to put 3-4 stone towers on top of the dam (squared top towers with oval windows) I could send you a pic? do you have any vids on how to make one? Or know of any vids I could check out? Thanks.

That would look great! I don’t currently have any videos on how to do that, but I know there’s tons of tutorial videos out there. A few I like are Tabletop WitchCRAFT, Miscast, and Nat 1 videos. They have great tips and techniques that you could use to make your towers!

This is really cool! I like your starting project with the wall. Is there a specific paint brand your recommend for these types of builds?
@MiniCrafthobby

Thank you! No specific brand-I’m using Vallejo here and on most of my projects. As long as you have a good acrylic paint set you should be good to go!
You're only a few days old and I was shown your channel... interesting... and I like it. You're explanations are well done and you're easy to watch... so I've subbed.
