Let's stop *just* making castle ruins
It's time to visit the classic D&D setting: ruins! You can use these in both a forest setting using the sidewalk tiles and wilderness tiles or in a desert setting using the desert tiles and desert scatter! The world is your modular oyster. Or, just take the techniques and build anything else you want :)

These look SO good. Slicing layers off the outside of the foam and the brown ink wash do a ton of work to make these look and feel ruinous! I definitely agree that dry brushing doesn't have to be the last step, and the reddish wash giving the illusion of layers of separate stone was a phenomenal touch. I'm inspired!

You have a face! 😜 These are awesome. Instead of slicing off every corner of every wall, keep a sheet of 120 or 180 grit sandpaper handy and shave the corners down. I gotta believe that's faster. Along with your crafting, I gotta say, your editing is top notch as well. Good stuff all around. Cheers. (I'm not coming up with any decent puns which is really annoying me. 😤)

@dirigoallagash3464 Sanding is a great time saving suggesting, but sanding foam should be done out of doors while wearing a mask, foam dust is not healthy and it is messy.

I did manage to get similar-ish results to sanding and cutting with scraping the edge of the piece with the blade of a sharp utility knife sideways. Pretty much dust free, no hard edges, way faster than cutting.

I love these tutorials!!! They're like all I need. Came up with another UDO idea to keep you up at night: With the way these are made to stack, I could imagine there being a wall topper that could be a cornice piece. This would allow for the walls to be assembled into a temple front, or the cornice pieces could be placed on the ground to accentuate the ruin feel and provide cover

Love the videos, keep it up! I know a lot of your content is heavily influenced by RP Archive, but if I'm being honest, you do it better! Nothing against Matt, but I find I personally have to watch his videos multiple times, and pause them over and over to grasp the instructions and measurements (not even talking following along while crafting said video content). Your videos - for whatever reason I can't put my finger on - are clear, concise, easy to follow, and have the added bonus of fantastically themed puns. All this to say, if you would recreate YOUR version/spin of most of Matt's content, I'd be here for it! Either way, keep making these fantastic videos :D

I'm super flattered you find my instructions easy to follow and enjoyable haha. There are projects that I can see myself putting my own twist on, so there may be some down the pipeline 🤗
this is fantastic. Love all the detail. The editing for this seems like it may have take 2 eternities. The work really shows. Nicely done! One thought, the wash technique you're attempting appears to want to mimic oil washes. It's a reductive technique. The mineral spirits smell can be off-putting, but it will be a lot less effort (though oil paint, even as a wash, takes an hour before you can start removing it). Black Magic Craft switched to this a long the way. You might find it easier for your terrain pieces as well. Great idea. The walls look great. Your D&D adventure looks genuinely epic!!
@raecheldoes
Ай бұрын
Haha thank you for the compliments! And don't worry, the editing only took 1.5 eternities. I have seen BMC's videos on oil washes and I am probably subconsciously trying to mimic that aesthetic! I'll put a coin in the jar of 'consider switching over to oil washes' now 🙃

I've been doing magnetic walls for a while and never had one pop out. My secret is using tacky glue instead of hot glue. The downgrade is that you need to let it harden over night, but it lasts way longer than hot glue. No need to do the hole filling with mod podge/paint.
