Great video! Complete, usefull, something to remember. I put it at the level of the old "how to make wargames terrain" book, but even more in a budget (that being positive as 40k requires tons of terrain now).
@WhatareyouPaintingnow I got the same vibes. Yours is more concise, more into the budget and easy version (no wired trees, not a thousand ice cream sticks) but still come with well thought ideas (step by step instructions, sprue frame, reference to resources/time/quality). It is not perfect, though! Some would have appreciated a presentation of materials, possible alternatives, and their pros and cons (I think that is in the book), like durability or access.
Good video. This really takes me back to the pre-GW terrain daus of 40K. Never underestimate what can be done with packing foam, paper clips and PVA glue.
I love the effort and showing how you can make terrian on a budget. As someone who now only had time for skirmish games I love the idea of banging out some scatter terrain over a weekend with a friend
So awesome you guys did this! I have tried to catch the livestreams but they usually are during my work hours. That Calador cream looks great for the skin too, lol! Exfoliate!
Ha ha ha, but I cannot recommend the exfoliation routine unless you really want to remove the hairs along with it - Cal P.S. Sorry we try and pick live stream times that would be good for the majority of our audience we will have to figure things out - Cal
We try and pack a lot into our videos otherwise they are very short. We believe that wasting peoples time is wrong so we try our level best not to do it - Cal
I understand that this video is about terrain, and that's very good and useful, but CAT. Cats are also very good and useful. I am glad that cat helped.
I loved the video and y'all's ideas! Thanks for sharing and for showing how y'all made everything. I'll be heading to check out the rest of your channel. I'm glad to have been suggested this!
@@WhatareyouPaintingnow I’ve enjoyed all the videos that I’ve checked out so far! Admittedly it’s not that many yet. I really liked the color theory videos and plan on finishing that chain of videos!
@ already sending it out to all the homies! Not sure if you guys have done it but if yall made TH-cam shorts with just the bits how to make the washes, texture paints, and the awesome quick tips you both provide etc… would be a huge hit!

Awesome video! Good terrain is often under rated for a good game. I've been saving cardboard boxes, sprues, and other cheap hobby scraps to make my own terrain soon. I will definitely being using tips from this video.
@@MountainKing88771 glad we are helping I think the ruins one is the best for really pushing the cheap terrain I mean who doesn't have sprues and cardboard right? - Cal
Thanks for putting this together guys! A lot of great ideas here. Any reason why you recommend using PVA over something like spackle for texture paste? Also have you considered doing a teamup with another hobby channel to cut down on some of the work or bring new people in? I saw an even more low effort ruins video made by Erics Hobby Workshop and it seems like you all could have a good discussion with him like you did with Brushstroke.
Hills Optional Stage 6 Amendum : Don't worry about matching hue, but do concentrate on natural colors. Even in exposed rock formations, you're degrees that you'll see green, grey, yellow, and other shades is a natural thing, and even large feilds of grass will have spots of yellow or colorful spots where wildflowers have landed. Don't be afraid that it all has to match precisely. What you are looking for interest and contrast and you as long as you don't overdo your flavor highlight, you'll be fine. Obviously, if you are nervous, go with the programmed suggestion, but know that this stage can be a bit looser if you so desire.
@@WhatareyouPaintingnow I meant it as a response to the comment at the end. I just mean that there are most likely more people that will listen to a lore video, than a terrain making tutorial video. I like both, but I suspect I am the exception, rather than the rule. I hope you will still continue to make more videos like this, even though they may get fewer views ... I really like them! I hope that makes sense, if not, I am sorry, English is not my first language.
@@Grubnar AHHH thanks it all comes together. For us a lot of the time we forget the little details of our videos because... we're working on another video as we were when we got your comment and were confused. And don't worry your comments English was fantastic, just didn't know what it referenced. Thank you so much for the feedback that was actually super useful - Cal
You are entitled to your opinion. That doesn't make you right though. It cheap quick and easy. In life you choose two of three things always, quick, good, or cheap. You never get all three - Cal
This is why you guys are the best wargames / Warhammer channel in TH-cam
Thank you very much - Cal
Thanks, I need to try those!
Anyone in particular jump out at you? - Cal

@@erikmazon4587 Totally fair but we also don't have the budget of a Games-Workshop from back in the day, or a budget... - Cal

Indeed! And cork, I guess we used a lot of cork in this one! - Cal
You've quickly become one of my favourite channels, thank you for the vids

This is spot on to my current board building project this year ❤
Glad it's helpful for you - Cal
An excellent video. I was especially impressed with the sprue ruins.
Thank you! Glad you liked it. I thought it was great solution to giving some depth to the walls - Cal
Holy shit, I learned more in this one video than in 30 other videos. Great. Subbed. Thx.
We try and pack a lot into our videos otherwise they are very short. We believe that wasting peoples time is wrong so we try our level best not to do it - Cal
I made some hills with expanding foam I had left over. it works great & has bumpy, uneven surface.
Great use for residue in the bottle you would have to spray out nonetheless 👌
I understand that this video is about terrain, and that's very good and useful, but CAT. Cats are also very good and useful. I am glad that cat helped.
I will let Hades know people approve of him - Cal

This is a great video. I hope you do more.
@@KeithCrowe you can help make sure we do more of a video type by making it popular, so if you share it that means a lot to the algorithm - Cal
This is crazy helpful! Thank you.
@@daffyduckett glad it was helpful for you. Could we ask favour and be helpful to us and if you could share this - Cal
Thanks for the birthday gift :>

Excellent!

ngl most off these look pretty weak imo. it looks too basic or resembles what it was made from too hard
