Those ended up looking reaaaally good. Paper towels and white glue. You sir are a magician! Certainly joining this patreon thing. You deserve some money for all the enjoyment you've brought me :)
Great Job DM Scotty, love your channel and everything you craft. My boys love crafting thanks to you making it as simple as possible... thanks and AND GO FORTH AND CRAFT!!
Hey Scotty! I watched this after seeing the banner vids and something that could be added to "Da Boss's" tent could be a banner pole coming from the center of the tent with the tribes banner on it or the door flap could be painted like a banner...
I was thinking that too but I left them off so they could be generic. I am doing an orc banner vid and decided that I would have the symbol on the camp banner instead.
I could see leaving the door partway open painting the inside cardboard flat black to give it that spooky whats going to come out look or even a real dim light to add depth. If you used the glue gun could make animal hide shapes and make a tent for a less evolved race such as a troll. Or a little rabbit and coyote racoon tent for nasty little goblins on the march. Your videos always get me very inspired thanks Scotty.
Great work, thank you! I'm going to attempt this but try to 'cut' an opening from the top and door that will allow miniatures to be inside...possibly even make it into 2 or 3 rooms inside. Thanks for the inspiration!
Very very nice. I just found your channel recently and I love it!!! I've gone nuts hoarding cardboard lol Thanks for the videos. They inspired me to start working on a looooong overdue campaign . About 14 years overdue to be exact.
ty ty.. loved these... I made 3 of them an they look good..... now that I have the 2nd part now I can finish lol... awesome work!!!! keep the vids going.
*sigh* Now I need me some tents for my armies. At this rate I'll never be finished with projects! Thank you sooooo much for the continuation of my never-ending project purchases. :rolleyes Every time I think I have enough stuff, DM Scotty comes out with a new idea! Thumbs up, man! :)
I'm sure you've been asked this in the past, but I was curious if you ever use a spray sealant on your tabletop pieces. I mean above and beyond character figures that is. I find it's invaluable in keeping the corners of the buildings, tents,etc looking good even after years of play; plus gloss vs matte makes for some interesting looks (wet, dry, etc) I was just curious, as I don't think I've heard you mention it as a step. Cheers.
I almost never do. I really don't have a problem with wear and if I did I would just dab a bit of paint on the problem. Much less expensive than sealing everything you make. If you have watched my other vids you will see I do use gloss sealers for effect.
The tent looks awesome! Your playing table and the dark red background of your table at the end of the video make the presentation more professional. A light source behind the camera can avoid shadows as unfortunately seen. Try to keep that in mind for further vids. ;) Scotty, that tent looks great, but isn't 2.5D. You forgot to build an inside view. ;)
I want to make these, but I want to be able to lift them up and have stuff inside like you did with your cabin and granary videos. How would you do that here?
If you did a solid base a bit larger then the tent cut your carboard into a span that goes side to side fully then cut put the bottom pieces of cardboard and really stiffen it up using the white glue method I think you could do it quite easily.
Hey Scotty not sure if you accept requests but I was curious if you had any crafting tips for props and miniatures for Call of Cthulhu tabletop, which I've recently gotten into. I'm in the process of crafting an actual Necronomicon prop but have only gotten to inking in about 12 pages without illustrations. Any advice for making it stand out or other tips that would be handy for other prop builds?

This is one of the coolest miniatures I've ever seen!
Cool, and probably one of the cheapest.

So glad and thanks so much for your support.
Excellent. Hope you feel better.
Thanks, I already am.
Great job. Love to see a part three. Decorate with orc trophies (armor etc), orc shields and furs etc. Maybe personal touches like this orc likes red.
great ideas
What an incredible technique. My husband and I are addicted!
Kathryn Roberts Wonderful, glad you and your hubby have a hobby you both enjoy.
Nice tutorial. :) Shows how something simple can be really effective.
Very true, I love cheap materials.
A pentagonal/hexagonal barbarian tent and a square civillized tent are two really neat d&d props when you think about it.
So true.
Awesome as always. I'm thinking I could cut out most of the center dividers and make a modular floor, and it's playable. Thanks DM Scotty.
So true

Isaac Murray Awesome! have fun.

Sure could, I just wanted my tents to be generic.
Simple and cheap. I love the detailing work and the forks.
Some tribe symbols on the door flaps would be cool added feature.

I am a task master...lol
Amazing as usual.
I will take a bow.
Great job Scotty, Nice Finish!
Thanks man.
Have you considered placing a tea light inside the tent for night glowing camp...just an idea.
Fun idea!

Thanks =)
xD Please say door flap more ohh yeah.
Great vid I am going to do this for a party camp site.
I could make a part 3...lol

Could you do the tent open? I am very impressed with the tents.
Sure could
Looks great !

+Da40kOrks Thanks, I was really happy with them.
Gotta try that

I like heroes of my favorite song is amazing but I think It's time to get May have a great way to go to sleep now .
Have you considered selling your wares on eBay or Etsy?
The tent looks awesome! Your playing table and the dark red background of your table at the end of the video make the presentation more professional. A light source behind the camera can avoid shadows as unfortunately seen. Try to keep that in mind for further vids. ;)
Scotty, that tent looks great, but isn't 2.5D. You forgot to build an inside view. ;)
So true.
The time has come for part 3. ;)
Very battle for middle earth...I dig it
yes =)
My tribe of mammoth hunters thanks you.
Or is it dinosaur hunters? Yeah, I think it's dinohunters.
I want to make these, but I want to be able to lift them up and have stuff inside like you did with your cabin and granary videos. How would you do that here?
Use craft sticks or small dowels for the frame.

I never knew Roderick was such a diva
He sure is.
sensacional...
I like those uruk hai
+Daytimerocker Thanks me too.
Make more orc terrain please.
Will do....some in the works
Please make this type build styled for skavens
Can't wait to get off work and make a few of these now. :-) Awesome job!
Music to my ears...I love to see people get excited about projects.
Are those yuriki? Probably didn't spell that right

Check out my map vid.
theDMsCraft I did and the one for letters. Any reason you prefer using paint and water over tea or coffee technique for paper aging?
I like the control.
You can also use different colored paint to color images on the pages but use very wet paint so the color looks faded.
theDMsCraft I'll give it a shot since the only tea I have around the house is the expensive not in bag kind lol
RRRRRAAAAAAAWWWRRRRR!!!!
+Violet Deliriums that banner in the back rocks too!!! so fun!
+Violet Deliriums Thanks, make sure to watch my banner vid too.
theDMsCraft banner freaking year...
