You're getting cavities because you are poking into and doing circles. If you do a line one way drop down then go in the opposite direction as close as you can and make more of a square rather then a circle you should reduce the amount of cavities you create.
Ooo! Sicne this video is up no one explained this to me! Thank you kindly. I want do some bigger hills with it and now I get it a little more. Thanks.
you prolly dont give a damn but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an instagram account??
I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Owen Matteo Instablaster ;)
@Samson Will I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Samson Will It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
Cool video, nice to see a new TH-camr making great tutorials :)
You are far too kind! Thank you kindly :)
I like using the 1" expanding foam for smaller things and Dap DryDex joint compound (spackle) because it goes on pink and turns white to let let you know it's dry.
One can is enough for an entire 6x3 table. Foam sheets are hard to come by in South Africa. This is an awesome substitute.
For sure one can will do loads and loads. The only annoyance is the holes but filler can sort most of them!
Great job of making the hill Jay. This was a good tutorial and you explained the method very well. It is a low cost but effective way of making terrain. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks, I prefer normal foam but appreciate not everyone has access to it.
Sweet job, dude. Your videos are always well done.
Too kind, thank you kindly :)
clever idea, thanks
Took on this project today, and it went surprisingly well! I used your recipe for homemade sculpt a mold as a substitute for the filler. I haven’t painted or flocked it yet but I’m ready to do that tomorrow. Thanks for the great video!
Good to hear you presssing, sounds fun! Thanks :)
My original shape looked like the millennium falcon ;)
@@EpicParsnips Heh, that sounds pretty good to be fair. It is fun slicing up foam.
Just got gun grade expanding foam has changed my life really recommend.
Nicely done mate. Looks spot on.
Thank you very much good Sir! :)
Amazing! Thank you!
Great video!!! Love fromm Michigan USA. Making Christmas crafts. Great explanation video.
Thanks so much!
Very nice tutorial, thanks dude.
Ahh thank you very much :)
Oh Hell yeah this is RAD ✌🏿
thanks
Really enjoy your videos. You are very good at terrains in a lot of different mediums.
I will have a go myself one day so, just as a hobby 😌.
Hope all is well 👍
Thank you very kindly, all is well on our end and I hope the same for yours, and good luck in your creations :)
Looks great thanks for sharing
100% my pleasure :-)
I could see using cheap disposable molds with this as well.
Thanks man this was great
Glad it helped
Great video, can of expanding foam purchased for my next build!!
It's decent stuff if you can't get normal xps stuff, so good luck :)
@@TerrainMadeEasy I can get XPS sheet no problem, I am just planning some higher terrain and I think this will do the trick without cutting in to my precious XPS lol
@@Nat1videos It's great for adding volume for sure!
Good tutorial mate
Glad you liked it. Thank you very much :)
dude you are amazing bravo
thank you, you are too kind :)
Good idea!!!! Thanks
Normal xps is easier to work with if yu can get it though! Thanks.
I like it without the base. Makes tables look a touch more real.
yeah I think I do overall, it makes it blend in a little better in my mind I think, but it's a personal preference for sure.
Awesome.
Thanks!
Maybe missed something but is there a reason the crust is cut off before actually carving the foam into shape. Asking this while my foam is drying
Id like to see people do more elaborate shapes and terrain with expanding foam but everyone just makes hills
So I tried this! But what happens is the inside is full of holes! So to make elaborate shapes would be pretty difficult I think. The can isn't expensive, maybe try it and post pics?
Where do you get your xps foam from in the uk?
I wonder if leaving the crusty bit on would work if you wanted a more lunar rock structure?
I have seen it done for like volcanic terain so it is doable
I wonder if you use a square cast you can spray it inside and make foam sheets for yourself
I did think about something similar, I might work up the energy to try it at some point :)
@@TerrainMadeEasy i did see some videos of it on youtube and it works really well, i live in Brazil and i don't have access to XPS
@@leonardochagas9930 OOO COOL, WILL MAYBE TRY IT
What type of knife are you using?
Do you reckon you could spray a bunch of this stuff and cut individual bricks?
I don't know for sure, I think maybe, but you'd have little hole I think, so not sure it would be a good idea.
i tried sometime ago working with this type of stuff.... very hard to control it, it expands like crazy, very very sticky, you must use gloves.
What is the purpose of cutting the shell off? It looked fine to me just as sprayed and dried, but yes, the bottom needs to be flat.
You can do it with the shell but then it's more random!
We buy sprayfoam for 2 euro and the can is twice as big?
Dude this would be great for my 1/24 R.C.Rock crawler truck indoor course.lol.cool..any ideas ???..help..
If you can get standard XPS foam then that stufff is better but this would do in the absence of that. Are you having any specific issues?
Nice work, but just a small worry. If that foam is what I think it is, it's highly cancerogenic. You should be wearing gloves and a mask when working with it, especially when cutting and sanding it.
Fair enough, I know for spraying it you should, I didn't know about afterwards.
@@ExianProductions Always worth researching things for yourself, which I sort of didn't!
Anecron1 the word is “carcinogenic.” And not to minimize the need - I would certainly encourage people to wear gloves and respirator when working with the stuff. But a lot of those precautions are intended for people with occupational exposure. Where it’s their job to use the stuff and they expect to have big levels of exposure every day for years and years. Probably for the production of a few wargaming hills your exposure is not too high.
For context, lots of things are considered carcinogenic, including processed meats. So it’s all relative.
Seems to need much more work than plaster bandage technique ... but nice video anyway :)
You are right, It's not my fav method, normal xps foam is probably the easiest but just showing different materials as people can't get everything :)
