Now if only you could finish the paint on those tattoos. 😜 looks great awesome liquid gold.
Really loved this video AWESOME job
After watching the ad in the middle of the build, it honestly confused me how well done it was. Not many people are going to appreciate and ad in their video, let alone admire it, but the editing cannot be ignored. An easy slide into the sponsor with the build itself, by using the mini in the sponsor. On the right, there is info about the sponsorship and it scrolls at a great pace to give enough visual info but still manages to not take up too much time for each segment. On the left is a real-time video of you working, which might just seem like a clip of the overall video, but is so much more. The steady pace of the info slide fits perfectly with the steady time he is taking with the build might be what comes to mind when thinking about for a few moments, but the fact that it isn’t edited or sped up doesn’t draw out any attention to itself. It gives the ad more priority while still satisfying the building aspect of the video. And it works even better when it fades into a small video highlighting the minis because it’s still holding on to the main build by using a mini that was in the build in the first place. Not to mention his voice fits perfectly with the sponsorship and outlining key elements of the new/topical project that alines even better with the build. It’s so well mixed, the editing is top notch, y’all are sleeping 100%
@@spoonerismstuff you are hired. You now respond to all sponsor inquiries on my behalf. Cheers!
I am going to try my hand in making a one shot around your fountain idea. Love the gold spewing snake. Will send it to you to share with your community if you want too.
As a history teacher, I can say for sure, these existed, and were made by Goblins.
It's true, I took his class. It was the first lesson we learn.
@@westcoastgeeks7294 Ah yes, I remember that lesson. Day 1 essentials. The Goblin Golden Snake Fountains. The number of times that lesson has come in handy since then is astounding...
@@johnfroh6774 it's has saved my life serval times. Thank you Mr Fox, for all your life lessons.
Hey history teacher

Let me know what you think on there

I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate these tutorials. I am not a gamer, but a 65 year-old female miniaturist, in 1/12 scale. (Yes, dollhouses, though not the usual kind.) But the techniques are very adaptable. It was your video on tiles that inspired me to attempt cobbles for a Tudor Blacksmith's forge I'm working on. Thank you!
im interested in this scale, do you have anywhere where I could see some of your work?
It’s hobby overlap and the best kind
@@Max-rq3et Not really. I share of FB with by friends, but that's about it. I'm doing period Tudor.
I'd also be interested in seeing what you're doing. I hope you'll come back and let us know if you post it somewhere!
Do your doll houses now include miniature guillotines?
This project came out incredible! The so-called "discoloration" in the gold paint job, thematically, could just be a spot where the surface gold has started to cool and/or something has fallen in. From what I've experienced, molten metal has all kinds of swirls where the temperature is slightly different, from impurities falling in, etc.
But molten gold glows yellow to white.
Also it's in a jungle setting so having weird murky water pools on top of the cooled gold would also make sense.
I think the liquid gold turned out pretty good.
This would obviously look amazing on any lizardmen themed table too! Super cool project. Also, a thought. You could make the snake on it an NPC that is using an illusion to make it's tail look like a pool of gold in an attempt to lure would be looters into their doom. Obviously would need more fleshing out but just a thought. Thanks for another great video.
This confirms it: Jeremy now has to collect and build a 3,000 point Lizardman Army for 6th. Edition Warhammer Fantasy.
That'd be amazing for a wargaming table- I can imagine it covered in Skinks and Saurus warriors for Age of Sigmar.
This is ideal for Frostrgave's sister game "Ghost Archipelago", so you might want to check that out. Basically the same rules, just in a mystical jungle/island setting.
Came to the comments to mention the exact same thing. Instead, I'll like your comment instead!
Same comment regarding Ghost Archipelago once I noticed Frostgrave books in background and heard Jeremy say I don't play games where this would work...
Ghost Archipelago was my first thought, too.
Thanks for always including an extensive list of materials in your videos. You have no idea how many people keep key materials and techniques a secret.😁❤️
I have one simple rule for fantasy painting/terrain building: It's FANTASY, so it's allowed. A pool of spewing gold is an awesome idea, and now I have yet another inspiring idea for my growing Snake Men from Frostgrave force to have in their terrain collection :-D Thanks for such a fantastic idea and tutorial.
Nearly 200 episodes and still making amazing crafts. Thanks for keeping us inspired!
13:05 as someone with a project that's "still drying" from a year ago, yeah this gave me a heart attack.
Lol.
"I also realized something far more important: it doesn't freaking matter, cause it's COOL!"
Words to live by
I know you use to talk about frostgrave. Have you seen frostgrave ghost archipelago? This would be sweet as a set piece in that game.
At 11:40 you pour on watered down mod podge, if you give it a quick spray of watered down alcohol first (I have a bottle of 70% isopropanol mixed with water), the watered down mod podge/pva soaks right through instead of pooling on top. Gives a super solid result once dry and gives less of a mess while pouring. Beautiful build as always!
That tentacled tree figure reminds of a Vincent Price movie I saw back in the 1980's and I cannot remember the title, but he was raising a blood-feeding tree and sacrificing people to feed it.
During these past few weeks you and your videos have grown and improved so much. Every project you do gets better and better. Keep up the good work.
In the campaign world I'm working on, magic is used like technology in a ww2-type conflict. And the best fuel is a liquified version of gold, rather than oil. Gold is a physics form of magic after all, that's why you need all those gold pieces to craft magic items. A fountain or derrick with liquid gold is absolutely perfect for that, great vid!
This is excellent, and I hope we'll be seeing more jungle terrain!
When decorating the base...Try wetting the sand and other ground scatter with Isopropal Alcohol before the glue. It will help the glue soak in instead of beading up on top.....Love watching your builds!
I really love jungle terrains! Hey moss and little plants will grow specially between the tiles, stones, bricks, so you might want to add some tea leaves on the wall as well, but it's only an idea and I totally enjoyed watching this video, it looks awesome!
Those colors on the snake are great.
In the 1975 movie 'Doc Savage: The Man Of Bronze', there is a pool of gold in the South American jungle. It's a pretty cool idea. Your model is excellent. Maybe it could be used with some 'Pulp' figures.
Love it! The gold is actually looking better this way rather than clean and perfectly applied. It adds some randomness.
Oh this is sooo good...the liquid gold looks great, I think the “dirty water”could add to game play
Hey Jeremy, I've been watching your videos for about a year but haven't really commented. I want to thank you for making great videos, but also for much more than that. I'm a complete amateur to crafting. I have no background in art or design. Your videos have helped me to become much more confident in my abilities. While you have given my tons of awesome ideas, the biggest takeaway I've had is that it's alright to mess up. Surfing through Reddit and other places people can be extremely negative or quick to jump to reasons why a paint job or craft is subpar. I'm pretty sensitive to that kind of criticism, especially since I already know my art is pretty beginner-level. Seeing you mess up has been SO helpful to me. I know it sounds weird, but your willingness to admit a mistake without getting down on yourself or hiding it really encourages me to work through my mistakes rather than scrapping them immediately. Beyond that, your "good enough" attitude to crafting has really helped me to calm down and be more accepting. My painting or creating doesn't need to be perfect, it just needs to be good enough. The best creators are not always the best teachers, but you manage to be an amazing creator and a great teacher. Your humility and sense of fun is what inspired me to start crafting more than any video of an impressive painting ever could. I know it's random to bring up in this video, but I wanted to say it and your statement about painting to impress the average person brought up some of these thoughts and I figured that if I mentioned it on a more recent video it would be less random. Long story short: thank you.
That snake is awesome, don't know about that hand/ arm though. Really cool build!
Wow. I remember how exciting it was when the original pre-printed DM screen came out. It was pretty and printed instead of hand written and had a lovely Dragon on the front.
I had to pinch myself when I saw the title of this video.. Epic Jungle Scatter Terrain - I have spent much of my 2 months in Lock-Down building Jungle terrain pieces for my Games Club.
100 palm trees and unnumbered amounts of plastic "Fish Tank" flora later I am nearly done, but I need to pass them on now to the Airbrush Guru at our club for that final step to unify them all and tone down the plastic green of the plants.
Your piece looks fantastic I hope mine will look as good in the cold light of non-covid day - whenever that maybe :D
Bali to any foreigner except Australians, is this tropical paradise. To us Aussies, its a cheap holiday and a piss up. Inspired by Bali, my inspiration is Bintang radler lemon and happy pizza
Ok
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial ok
I’m getting flashbacks from the nightmare that was tiling my bathrooms!
Great piece overall. Love the liquid gold🍯
Glad I came across this video. I’ve been intimidated by going airbrush but you make a great point. Terrain building is a great “learn to use “ for airbrushing.
This came out looking epic! I love how the gold came out. It looks so real.
If you still aren't happy with the gold, you might want to consider trying Golden Fluid Acrylic Paint 1 Quinacridone Nickel AZO Gold. I don't know if it can be thinned enough for air brushing, but I've used it for art projects and applied it with a brush. It dries very even without brush strokes. I really liked this project. Quite imaginative!
You can find really wild cheap plastic foliage in the pets section of big box stores among the aquarium supplies. Some are already wildly colored and make for good alien plants in sci-fi settings, but you can paint them for a more "natural" look.
I'm happy to see I'm not the only one with really messy space when working on something.
I love this build, it looks fantastic. it is a great combination of d&d and old jungle movies. Thank you.
Thank you so much! All of your videos have inspired me to add to our game..between your page and Bards Craft I've fallen into the dark hole...wish I could add pictures really would like your opinion on some larger scale scene based dioramas I built
Anyways thank you, as I'm sure you know life is hard and when my father passed away 2 years ago, I turned to D&D and crafting. Your channel is everything
Lucky adventurers! Thats a solid retirement plan right there! Just gotta get a couple of barrels and swing by this place on the way back!
The snake model was okay but you Jeremy, you elevated it to a whole new level of cool.
I adore this. It’s a perfect example of gamers creativity. Find something that speaks to you and make it work.
I can see Indiana Jones doing something there! I guess an open jungle area would be expected to experience regular downpours, so the water fx adds some verisimilitude. Love the colour palette, fits nicely with a jungle theme and contrasts nicely with the gold. Well done Sir!
You are my favorite terrain builder to watch. All your stuff has so much personality
Huge thanks to you, Jeremy! Another amazing project that shows how this hobby can be surprisingly funny and new every day! Love your bubbles in the pool... Great job, mate!
I think it looks great. What I enjoy most about the builds is how many different options and techniques used as well as the mistakes.
I always get nervous when making my sets that I'll mess something up that is 'good' (for me) by trying to make it better.
There is no bigger mistake that stopping yourself from building because you are scared to screw up.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial True but with limited time available there is also 'Better done than perfect but unfinished' 😀
BTW : I'm not model building just building sets for stop motions. I use people, like yourself, to get some tips on making them a bit better than the norm.... so thanks for everything you share.
This is such a great build. I can just see it in a crumbling temple complex in the midst of a jungle. That green paint job is spot on, you can almost smell the slimy moss.
Unlikely to see much tabletop use? How about running "The Quest For Liquid Gold" in which the PCs are searching for a dozen long-lost wells of magical spell components? Each adventure could focus on finding a new well, and could end with an encounter centred around that terrain piece. Each could be set in a different location, with the "jungle" being unnatural growth caused by the magical energy of the gold.
That's a great looking terrain piece and deserves some exposure on the tabletop.
I'm doing an "armored fighter vs dragon" diorama that will be contained within a fake, 9 1/8" × 13 1/2" "hollowed out spell-book" once it's all done.
I know I'm not re-inventing the wheel, but it's been a few years since I've taken on this size of a project-- so, I'm a bit "shaky" on getting started again.
Been watching a good portion of your videos since I discovered them, and it's helped a LOT... I love your "down and dirty" style that never the less nets incredible results...
I had a best friend in high school (sadly passed on now) who use to work like that, and I managed to learn a lot from him-- and build my own style off of that...
With him no longer around, I've been looking all over for a concept I can adapt/use as a template for my own ideas, and to "get my feet wet" again... And I think your badass "Snake Temple" is perfect...
Thanks for sharing your art with us. You're helping people in more ways than you know...
Nice video! I like the fact you built around a piece for no other reason than you liked it. Great work, I've recently refurbished my air compressor to use the old airbrush for some scenery.
The liquid gold effect might work well for a foundry. Maybe stick some cranes suspending great iron pots, or spouts in the walls leaking the molten gold into a vat. Doubles as an environmental hazard. Add some object source lighting, since molten metal is going to glow, probably. I could see something like that in a dwarven fortress or forgeworld location in Warhammer 40K.
Looks absolutely rad! It's always nice when you show us the "mistakes". It truly helps to understand that you do not need to get everything absolutely perfect. Thank you Jeremy and keep up the good work! Love frome Finland
Looks amazing dude. Wonderful work, so great. Bali stone masons and woodcarvers are so inspiring. Lost hours watching them work over the years.
Love this! It looks like it is metallic gold flowing into a forest pool. The ‘dirty water’ look gives it a nice pop like the gold is sinking in the pool. I know it wasnt the look you were going for but I think it looks amazing.
The liquid gold looks amazing, as does the snake skin texture. The green bricks definitely looks cool in a jungle/swamp setting - reminds me of the levels in Quake where you have the zombies in the water - very cool!
I immediately thought that you could have two of these fountains, but have one be just water...it could be used in more applications, or just as background....but the liquid gold one could be brought out by using a ritual when the players might need it....? This came out so cool!
Thanks! I am a recent discoverer of you work and am just embarking on an islands & jungle part of a campaign. Useful inspiration here!
Very cool. I completely agree on the fake plant things and that tip made them look great on camera so maybe worth a second look. Thank you!
Jeremy, another amazing build! Also, thank you for showcasing the Kickstarter, I absolutely love it and will be backing it!
I'm really impressed and inspired. Will absolutely use this gold and almost neon green colors in my terrain. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve watched all your videos but I just got back into crafting and thought, hmm maybe I’ll get an airbrush...and then this video pops up and you sold me on airbrushing. Thanks for great content.
A misterious expedition to the heart of the jungle to find gold you say?! Awesome idea! for some more inspiration for back stories you could look up the stories about Eldorado, men going into the Amazone jungle in search of gold really happened a lot during the 15th till 19th century.
Sure turned out.
Could be used for some kind yuan-ti shrine in a campaign where the party has too go to get the source of there poisons or something.
I love the overall affect -- this is a great piece of terrain!
That was amazing, dude! Mind blowing how good it came out! Vallejo water texture is a tricky beast to work with so it came out well!
Super cool build and results! Thanks for sharing.
I'd be excited too if i found a monster spewing macaroni cheese sauce. That stuff is delicious!
I love the detail you put in all your projects.
This looks so sick. I do agree that this, while cool, is one of those "I may use this once and then never again" pieces. To combat this, you could probably sacrifice a tiny amount of "looks" for increased playability by not attaching the mini to the pool and instead just leave that as an interchangeable option. Need a overgrown jungle snake god worshippers fountain? Big snake statue mini. Fountain of youth? Maybe some kind of angelic statue mini. Just a random pool of water in a dungeon? No mini I guess? The options would then become limitless. Not that this project needs any improvement, Its already super sick as is. Thanks for the amazing content!
Thought about it, but a jungle fountain full of liquid gold isn’t much more versatile without the snake so I figured might as well tie it right in.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial That is true. Thats when DMs law would come into play. "I know that the terrain piece has liquid gold in it, but I SAID that it was full of crystal clear water. I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE REPAINTING IT, GERALD!" lol.
Super awesome video, Jeremy! Tons of good material to use in other projects as well.
Thanks for this video! Jungles and swamps are my favs! Good job!
Wow. As always a great job. I've been thinking of a kind of spider dungeon all the time for a few episodes. Perhaps an old burial chamber in which large spiders creatures have now nested. I would love to see how you would build such a crypt with open tombs covered with cobwebs and eggs.
Or maybe something with indirect lighting. It's pretty cool too. But the spiders brother ... that would be it.
Keep it up.
Greetings from Germany
Could maybe use the fountain for scatter in Frostgrave ghost archipelago, is jungle setting and one of the added warbands are Snake people
I loved the vibrant green plants. Wish to see more soon
Looks awesome! Thanks for the inspiration
Very cool, I'm usually not crazy about jungle terrain ( or their environments) in D&D this does look extremely awesome!
I actually like that a whole bunch and I think building with foam bricks is likely what got us here to begin with.
Jeremy, you gotta stop telling us about cool stuff to back, my wallet can't take it.
SORRY NOT SORRY
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial savage
It hurts. So much cool stuff to back, and not enough money to do so.
@@joshc4018 I get this with so many 3D printer miniatures patreons...there are just so many good ones and my wallet ain't in the best place right now so I can support any of them :(
As always.. totally impressive build. I like your style and creativeness.
Incredibly cool looking piece of terrain!
Looks awesome. Been thinking about the airbrush especially for terrain.
The half gems as bubbles is a brilliant idea!
Excellent looking piece, great job
Love the trick for the bubbles!
This is exactly what i need in my life right now! I've stumbled upon a really nice seraphon/lizardmen army and i love to build terrain. So this is right op my alley.
I love jungle terrain!!!! wonderful build!
Great vid! One of my favorite builds on the channel.
I'm a lazy painter too. But as you say we aim to impress other players and outsiders, not pros. When my friend saw the, in my opinion, amateurishly painted minis I had and was genuinely impressed. I knew I did it right.
This is amazing. I have a jungle/tropics theme for my players and this has really inspired me!
Now take those random sized/shaped foam stones, make them real stones, enlarge them till they weigh between 20 and 100 lbs (depending on project expectations) add 80-95*F and very signifacant humidity and stacking those are part of my day job. Granted to alot of folks thats not ridiculously hot, but man o man does it get humid. And the stones are REALATIVELY small. 1 day of doin it and gives u a WHOLE new appreciation for the S.American temples, the pyramids, and the great wall. That said i must say you created a very nice wall that is very fitting in a jungle setting. Ive seen worse for dang sure hahaha. I also actually quite liked how the water effexts gave the gold a dingy feel. Good job.
Great piece! The build looks so much fun to make and paint! Love your videos man!
this is pretty cool and glad you did this one
I did have you saying 'A fountain in the jungle spewing liquid gold!' like the lyric from Welcome to the Jungle and don't regret it at all!
Beautiful job!
Have you thought of using rough magnets in a plastic tub to make sorting your bricks from your stones easier?
Love the idea. Super interesting execution. Very eye catching.
Incredibly cool!
You could always use it for Ghost Archipelago if you make the jump to that from Frostgrave.
excellent center piece to go with your jungle tiles and ruins for a really cool adventure.
Can also see your plant creatures for encounters too
This is possibly, my favorite piece you've ever done.....complexity wise no....But there is just something about this that speaks to me.
Great job my Dude
This is so beautiful I love the paint job
awesome work again dude. I love how all the colors blend in so well.
