How to make wargaming terrain hills for Warhammer, D&D, and more!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video, I'll show you how I made these modular wargaming terrain hills entirely out of foam. These hills can be used as scatter terrain for a variety of games such as Warhammer, D&D, Frostgrave, and more!

Awesome, glad to hear that! Thanks for watching.
I really like that simple rock cliff face technique. The look you achieved rivals the use of plaster rock molds.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. I have a bunch of plaster rock molds but I always find myself going back to this technique instead.
Great video!! The hills looked great 😁. Can't wait to see what else you make!!
Your cadence, explanations, and demonstration works great. I'm impressed you've only been at this a couple of months. Can't wait to watch all of your videos. Keep them coming!

Thank you so much! 😀
Two tips for anyone that wants to do this: 1) a 50/50 mix of black and modpodge coating everything, including the underside, will help with durability and hide any potential misses with the painting step, plus stops pink reflecting from the bottom 2) add a weight (or several) to the bottom to make it more stable, personally I use leftover ikea metal parts
Simple build but quite effective! Pleas do keep sharing any more builds :D
I think these are some of the best looking blocky cliffs I've seen

Once you applied the flock, did you do another layer of sprayed on PVA glue to lock it all in? If not have you had problems with the flock falling off with use?
@OkayHobbyTime
2 жыл бұрын
Spraying flock with glue changes the look of it so I always avoid doing that. I never have issues with flock coming off. The trick is to give the terrain piece a good shake once the glue has dried. So any flock that wasn't glued down will come off.
For the spray bottle, what’s the ratio of water to PVA glue? This looks amazing!
@OkayHobbyTime
2 жыл бұрын
Thank you! And the ratio is very little. Just enough to fill the bottom. For my newer hills I skipped that step entirely and they turned out fine.
Looks good! Was that foam 1” or 1.5”?

Where did you find a bag of coarse and fine sand? Even Hobby Lobby doesn't have what I am looking for. :P

Store-bought stuff tends to have a very consistent grain size. Nothing beats going outside and finding your own sand!
what thickness is the XPS Foam you use in this video?

Are you using wood glue for putting on the flock?
@OkayHobbyTime
Жыл бұрын
Not for flock. I use PVA glue with a bit of water added. I find that wood glue is a bit overkill for flock.
Anyone uk know wherre i csn get foam like this?
Do you spray a sealer over everything after the flock is done?
@OkayHobbyTime
Жыл бұрын
Hi Kyle, I don't add a sealer. I let it dry over night then give it a good shake to get all the loose flock off. Haven't had any issues so far.

@@OkayHobbyTime sorry for dumb questions I am new to building terrain.. the step where you spread glue on the top of the hill.. is that watered down? And what is your glue to water ratio?
@OkayHobbyTime
Жыл бұрын
@@kyleclavette9445 I like to add a bit of water so it's easier to spread. But not too much. What I usually do now is dunk my brush in water, then use the wet brush to spread on the glue.
just use a wire foam cutter 19-20 bucks saves you all the mess clean up and the time.

For sure-a great method as well if you're not after this particular look. I used that technique on the mineshaft entrance video.
Is that static grass or not? Because I can only find static in that packaging.

Hey there, I use Foamular XPS insulation foam. It can be found in hardware stores (depending on where you live) and is usually used to insulate homes.

@@OkayHobbyTime great, thank you! Can I ask what brand of hot wire foam cutter you would recommend? Cheaper would be preferred on my end, but I don't want something that will break or be more difficult to use because I go for the least expensive thing out there.
