These are gonna look ballin' when they're all together man. That brickwork and plaster layering is fantastic!

Glad I'm not the only one who sticks his tongue out when concentrating on cuts 😄

Oh fucking hell Luke. Sorry about the camera and the equipment. That being said. Man, you transformed that MDF building kit to look WAY better! I can't wait to see the final paintjob man! Well done! 👍

Anyone else addicted to buying MDF terrain just for the smell of laser cut MDF? . . . Just me?

It almost smells as good as freshly sawed or planed wood. Mmmmmmmmm 😻

Some older houses were sometimes just single brick walls. I love how it looks, can't wait to see the whole town.

That Cardboard "Plaster" is a great idea. Bathrooms in the 1940s? My family had an outhouse and a tin bath; but maybe Normandy is a bit posher than the UK Midlands.

Damn. That lens... 😰 Hard luck Luke. My biggest fear is dropping or knocking over my camera. Oof.

Even to me, who barely knows what a camera looks like, that footage hurt :| If I ever were to do studio work on my own dime, I would 100% have a life line attached to the camera, suspended from the ceiling, so it would be physically impossible for it to even get to the floor without unhooking it first.

I cannot imagine the pain of seeing your expensive kit getting banged up like that. Sorry to hear it pal. The build on this is great, Luke. I am very happy to see the direction you’re taking these in. You know my passion is for the details and seeing bricks, chimney stacks, plaster, wallpaper -Christ! alcotraves, coping. You’re rocking it, dude. I am hungry for more.

Looks more like a movie-visual effect diorama rather than terrain for a Wargame! That's next level stuff! Good work!

LOVE LOVE LOVE(d) the lens. Onwards mate. The build is looking amazing :)

seeing that sigma lens broken like that after you just purchased it man... The feels :(

physically cringing when you're describing that camera fall, hate seeing gear die :(

Great job, love these videos where you show techniques of just giving these sorts of basic kits that X factor with cheap and available materials

Those bricks really adds to the detail. Excellent job. Really looking forward to seeing this all come together.

I'm glad you liked the designs Luke! Happy to help.

Love these vids. Headed to your shop. Can't wait for the new stuff.

Great guide. I've often thought about the blank interiors on buildings. Will definitely use a lot of these tips for the next bit of scenery I work on. The end result looked great. Good luck with the gear replacement.

How awesome! I've always believed that the little details make immersion feel complete. This is really pleasant.

I'm enjoying the in depth detail videos.

This is fantastic! I’ve got a dozen or so of the exact same buildings and this is going to be an amazing resource for finishing them. Sorry to hear about the gear, hopefully it can be repaired without being too costly.

Love the video and I cant wait to see the whole town. So sorry to hear about the camera mate. hopefully you can get it back up and running soon.

It is amazing what you are able to do ! I will never be able to do it - but I really enjoy watching you work just for the fun of it :)

The camera - that made me wince. Sorry to hear it. Otherwise that is a brilliant build and shows how much potential there is in mdf terrain. They are fine as-is but tarted up they are next level. Cant wait to see the rest of it. Cheers!

Awesome video! Some great ideas for my own WW2 town. Sorry to hear about your camera! I’ll pop to your shop and make some purchases to support the cause.

You have really raised that building from ok to amazing. Great work. I'll look at your store and see if I can help that way.

@@GeekGamingScenics Aye but I can see where it's going and it will be so much better than original- unless you balls it up and make another failure video about it, lol.

It's good to see you using that brick paper, I stumbled across it a year or so ago and used it to breath a bit of life into my old scratch built buildings. I've used it for loads of other stuff since, a brilliant find. Fantastic end result of the model and bad news about the camera.

Any idea where I can get my hands on some? I've been looking for the right scale bricks/stone embossed paper for ages, but I can't find any. Any tips more than welcome!

Looks absolutely stunning! Both house and camera...

you're vids are great as always. History tip you aren't going to find many "Bathrooms" in WW2 French villages. jugs of water and bowls in the main with a stand-in bowl for the "bath experience". It's a bit like Britain and its wash stand and tin bath. The whole hygiene thing didn't really kick of until the 50s anyway

This hobby has so much crossover into other hobbies.

I demand you rebuild this with a proper cavity wall construction :)

What a lovely little house. All those details really brings everything together. And that everything looks like its a long way away from MDF. Very inspiring. Definitely going to nic the bricks thing. And sorry about the gear. Had my heart in my throat there.

So sorry to hear about your damaged kit, have sent a small donation, sorry it can’t be more but I’m out of work, so moneys very tight. Hope you get lots of support. Thanks for all your videos. Particularly like these houses your doing as I’m interested in Bolt Action scenery and when I do have any cash I often order from you to work on my own 28mm scatter terrain. All the best mate, hope you get your stuff replaced real soon👍🏻

Fantastic job Luke, I use all your tips best channel on KZread 👍🏻 👍🏻

Great work on that MDF building well done sir. Sorry for your camera losses.

Great video mate, gutted about your camera but the build is coming on really well

amazing stuff, i love the bricks it adds realism

Amazing dude, very inspiring!

This level of detail is awesome! As is the amount of damage! The excitement caused by finally getting to do some internal work was obviously too much for the camera to take! Very very impressed that the house didn't end up flying across the room too! Right then... Only another 20 to go and then you can start on the boards!!!

Loved this one mate. Sorry to hear about the death of your gear hope you can get it fixed without costing you your kidneys

Now there's a thought! Luke... Maybe we should talk?

Thank you , Luke . House looks Goochy! and yes want more Uploads like this one , Luv~Luv~Luv .

Nice build, sorry about the gear. I know how important each aspect is especially that articulating screen. I wonder if you dipped each brick in some glue/baking soda (tinted as well) mixture and placed them with the tweezers if it would nail that mortar look or not?....

Great build! The bricks really set off the scale as well…..somehing I have never tried! I cringed when you said you knocked the camera setup over! Love these smaller detail build videos, keep em coming!

Great video dude. I can't wait for the next one where you tell us how you knocked your 3D printer to the floor.

Those bricks added so much, really helped finish it off. Looking forward to seeing a full town, maybe a church and graveyard?

Wow that came out great mate, getting some French village in WW2 vibes

God I miss this channel

thanks as always this makes me want to spend more time on the hobby. Hope you get the camera and lens fixed/replaced soon I really like your videos!

Canon Professional Services in Borehamwood is where you wanna be sending Canon kit to get repaired. They would sort your camera out no probs.

Great work!

Looks amazing these are great

That is brilliant work, man. You've changed my opinion of MDF terrain.

Gorgeous end result man. Harsh luck with the camera though, making me think through how my stuff is insured in more detail! Nice music choice too btw :)

Buildings look great! Shit times with the camera :( Looking forward to seeing this build all coming together !

Bit of a hindsight but Luke ever considered a Rubber room, so that when and if your accident occurs again, instead of "Oops I did it Again!!" then you can watch your instruments Bounce and be retrieved quite happily? And by rubber I mean rubber sheeting which gives both protection and insulation to the floor your working on. Just a thought to brighten your day!!

Ooof. I felt that camera. Just donated. It's just a little bit, but I hope it helps

Looking absolutely amazing Luke. Very nice work indeed. God, I need a 3D resin printer ;)

Added some funds for you camera - hope it helps :-) been a big supporter since you started

Who knew MDF could be so expensive! Enjoy your channel 👍🏼

I’ve found that craft papers (6x6) work great as wallpapers. You just need to find patterns that look right. I cut them into scaled wallpaper strips and they look good 👍🏻👍🏻 great work xxxx

Amazing and very inspiring.

Looks great!!

cool vid mate!

I get a little something from every video you post. Cheers!

Its beautiful!

Mate, another great vid. Just a reminder when doing interiors, don't forget they had electric lighting and a few sockets. For electrical cable that scale you can use old phone cable sometimes you can find some outside junction boxes or just get an extension set from the pound shop. Also don't forget out side pipework, ie, stink pipe, guttering and sink pipes. Just suggestions. Nice tips on the wall paper and picture rails/skirting boards. It's little details like this that makes all the difference.

Is this part of the "biggest table ever" series? Still anxiously waiting for part 2.

Interior looks awesome, Ive got some of those teeny tiny bricks, they have been in a draw for the past 8 months, I should use them really =)

Awesome vid. 👍

To help out I’ll be putting in an order for your basing materials.

Well done

This is dope, i feel like using balsa wood for the bricks behind the paper wound let ya paint it up better

Great video 👍

Very nice!

Yes, more content like this!

I tend to find with MDF kits that can of petrol and a lighter works wonders. Or failing that put it in the wood chipper that your dad uses when he's cut the hedge.

Sorry to hear about your camera. The build really elevates the MDF terrain.

Awesome video as always, sorry to hear about the camera. For the windows I have seen somebody use uv resin for this.

Sad to hear about the cam, would support if i could as i really enjoy the content you put out but im skint, putting in a like and this comment for the algorithm gods. The whole build looks amazing! You could print bricks like that on sprues with only a single support per brick, clean+cure, prime and paint/wash them still on the sprue, removal would only cause an unpainted dot on one side, leaving the rest already fully painted, probably enough to get away with for most builds where the bricks are part of something.

Looks great

This Terrain looks sick for a wargaming table.

Try using microscope glass.. you can get in various thickness, 1mm and etc. they look great and can use in a lot of things without cutting. You can use a cutoff diamond wheel or score and snap with glass cutter.

Next vid: how to create a new camera from MDF

When Luke's gaming tables look better than most folks' train layouts 0.o Saw the camera pic on the Terrain facebook page. That one hurt, I'm sorry mate

Those bricks really pop. Save a few for the scatter and rubble

House looking great! Sorry about your camera... been there before.

First of all, let me say great work...and thanks for posting. I would suggest tho that your roofing shingles look a bit perfect, along with the shutters. They kinda stand out a little. Maybe a little rough up on them thar things, good to go!!

Nice! Kinda looks like a house from rookie village in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Careful with those skirtings! I found that when I printed doors flat on the build plate, they warped after a couple of weeks, presumably to slight shrinkage as the upper layers cured more. If you glue them all on quick they might be OK but keep an eye on them to see if they start to curve and peel off the wall! Would coffee stirrers be an easier (if less aesthetically pleasing) substitute?

For glass effect, use laminate. It's cheap and more manageable than plastic packaging.

Thank you!!!

a good source off wall paper in the game 'The Sims' they is lots of downloadable stuff for the game inc wall paper. What you need is the thumb nail image that go's with the file. They are easy to scale as they are in a format that is one roll of wall paper wide. you can also get floor tiles and carpets as well.

Sent you a couple of squids mate. Hopefully it helps towards making these great videos. My advice, screw it to the floor 😂 Also, look at Abandoned Miniatures use of glass slides from microscopes for the glass. Cheap and a great look.

that does look splendid

Looks great. One thing that bugs me about terrain buildings or even on a model train layout is that staircases are usually forgotten or there is no way one would fit in a building. Just a pet peeve but when I see someone thought about it I appreciate it more.

Where are the brick sheets from please?, I’ve found some in the UK but £10 for less than A4 seems expensive

If you dont mind my asking what scale were the bricks you used? I want to try this but dont want to order the wrong scale.

Another great vid. So sorry about the gear......

Will you be getting more of the 1000ml scenic spray back in anytime soon? Great work as usual

Love your work and help, with ref the thicken the walls of mdf kits, check out Laser Creation World although 1/35 diorama builder in a video 2 weeks ago ( ww2 panther defensive battle ) he used thin cuts of Styrofoam to thicken the walls of a church mdf building. Keep up the good work.

Have you seen or used Woodland Scenics 'ReadyGrass' rolls? How are they?
