A terrible tragedy has occurred: after my video editor crashed parts of the cutting noises were missing. I did not notice this in time to fix it. Very sad :( Here is the playlist of my growing "Summergrove Wargaming Table": tinyurl.com/y7kt2urd
I love this channel. It makes me feel good. 1. I love the ongoing oats joke. 2. Love the huge kitchen knife. 3. I like the background music - and it's not too loud. 4. Love the humour. Just right. 5. Enjoy The Bard's comprehensive grip on English, complete with understanding of various idioms. But while keeping that characterful accent. 6. I Like The Bard himself - what a very charming chap. "Peasant Level?" - I think not. In more ways than one, you've made something beautiful out of nothing, and I thank you for it.
so I saw a few vid´s from you and as a seasoned table top guy, I must say that this is one of the most underrated channels when it comes to terrain making. your low budged, high quality terrain is ace and shows that you dont need expensive materials or high grade equipment!very nice and motivational to watch your stuff. keep it up! :)
Our host is looking more like Anakin Skywalker every vid. Which makes me want to see some Star Wars or Sci-Fi terrain from him. Thanks for the great crafting ideas!
I am glad that you didn't skip the refueling with oats step. The mushrooms were an epic addition. I find that the army painter paint separate less if you squeeze more out of the bottles. It has more paint and less thinner this way. Keep up the good work.
Hello Bard’s Craft, I just wanted to let you know how much of an inspiration you are!! I have been playing D&D for about a year and I’ve always been interested in making terrain, but some of the other you tubers have all the fancy stuff but you just use household items!! I made my first piece of terrain because of you and it turned out great! Thank you so much for the inspiration!!!
Very good video, as always. I'll mourn the lost cutting noises, but even a few are better than none and I appreciate the intent. Thank you, bard of the oats.
My son and I call whatever that big knife actually is the "kitchen sword." Drawing cuts for the win, but your cuts are much straighter than mine! I probably need to eat more oats.
Great stuff Lukas, love your work as always. I do the brown wash too, an even stronger wash or pure brown inks even, especially streaks at the corners of windows etc. I've also done a switch around, I do tree grey and stones brown, the end result is great and gets us away from trees always being shown as brown and rocks always GW grey/ blue painted on a black base. I have both and its nice to mix it up with stone colours a bit. Great stuff, thanks for another great vid
Recently stumbled upon your channel and I absolutely love your methods. I often convince myself to not craft because of my lack of equipment, supplies, etc. - but watching you use whatever you have lying around and then create fantastic looking terrain is hugely inspiring. Subscribed. Keep up the great work!
Fantastic! I have always wanted to make my own. As a lifelong D&D player who now applies role playing to my history videos but still plays this is great. I had made cardboard dungeons that I painted/coloured but nowhere near the detail here or of course the pre-made ones which is kind of like cheating lol!
Just found this channel. This is definitely one of my new favorites. I love your DIY approach to the craft. What you call "peasant level" I call true crafting. Happily subscribed and enjoying the back catalog.
I'm making frostgrave/general tabletop terrain based on your video - it's going great - we have many smaller pieces and following your advice - gonna be grat for our gaming-club! Greeting from Sweden!
Hello there! I really appreciate your channel with it's lowkey and approachable, yet amazing looking terrain. More inspiring than any other crafting channel to me. The dry humour helps too! I do wanna point out, that Amazon is damaging to the hobby though, as it hurts the small stores we all know and love. I hope you succed in your endavours. Cheers from Denmark!
Pretty sure that Summergrove fell due to lack of knife skills and insufficient stockpiles of oats. Your crafts always look so amazing, and I love that you do it with a minimum of specialized materials and tools. I've seen more than one crafter tell their audience that if they want to get serious about crafting, they need a hot wire table and accessories from certain companies. And those are all fine tools, but keep showing us that you don't need those things to make cool stuff on the table, and that's great, especially for a person just starting out.
Right on, man. This inspires me to make some ruins myself, but they are going to be modern ruins. I will use some of your techniques, though. Cheers, --Bo
This was so cool! I just found your channel a few days ago, and have been watching so many of your videos. You are very skilled, and your terrain (and monsters/ spell effects) turn out so cool. You've just earned a new subscriber, keep up this great work, I love it!
Fantastic stuff, as usual. You're fast becoming my favourite tabletop crafter. I do wish I could get foam like that in the UK (nowhere that's near to me stocks anything like it, and right now not allowed to travel...)
I cant believe how awesome all your terrain looks! And it always comes from such humble beginning like an oat box haha I used to do the same, cereal boxes were very handy ^_^
Honestly Bard, I am *VERY* happy and proud to be a Patreon supporter of you. 2nd tier. You keep rocking sir. You actually don't quite realize how inspirational you are to me on a personal level. Are you a member of the Table Top Crafters Guild on Facebook?
I love using the recycling, b/c too many dioramas rely on new materials. So, far I can't think of a perfect substitute for foam, but I think styrofoam from purchases can be saved. Also glued layers of luan might work, but lack the flexibility of luan.
not sure where you live but this foam you can get in your local home building shop, in germany we have hornbach and Obi (yesss we all made the joke that after episode 6 Obi-wan opened up his Home building shop XD ) cause that stuff is kinda essential for getting your house fixed ect. and a lot of people beeing depended on them beeing open it might be that you can visit them ^-^ This is what I did in the 2nd week quarantine ! XD bough like 4square meter maybe 5 of foam which is 4cm thicc XD Still have over the half of the material left !
Doing anything in an "exceptionally satisfying manner" is worthy of praise.
Aye.
Praised be satisfaction

Next project : build a tabletop mausoleum for the lost sexy sounds.
*sad öates noises*
F
At least we still got the öates
I mourn the passing of the cutting noises
I miss this channel! I hope he comes back to it sometime.
I do too. It's not about the view count/algorithms, nor making money doing it, it's all about the spirit of the game and making memories.
I love this channel. It makes me feel good.
1. I love the ongoing oats joke.
2. Love the huge kitchen knife.
3. I like the background music - and it's not too loud.

"Peasant Level?" - I think not. In more ways than one, you've made something beautiful out of nothing, and I thank you for it.
Thanks you for your kind words 🙂
@17:40 I've found that Daler Rowney's FW Sepia ink is a _fantastic_ wash for wood surfaces. Makes it really pop.
we love oddly colorful mushrooms! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
"Peasant-Level Crafting" is the BEST kind of crafting!
Peasant-level is the optimal balance between effort and result 😄
so I saw a few vid´s from you and as a seasoned table top guy, I must say that this is one of the most underrated channels when it comes to terrain making. your low budged, high quality terrain is ace and shows that you dont need expensive materials or high grade equipment!very nice and motivational to watch your stuff. keep it up! :)
I sadly don't know much about D&D but I can't stop watching ur videos
The sound of the windows being popped out was really satisfying :D
I never thought to make miniature mushrooms like that before. How cool.
Sun Tzu: This is my greatest work " The Art of War"
Bards Craft: But have you mastered the "Art of the Blade"?
I miss your crafts. I hope life is treating you well these days. TH-cam feels like it has a hole in it without the Bard's Craft to fill it.
Our host is looking more like Anakin Skywalker every vid. Which makes me want to see some Star Wars or Sci-Fi terrain from him. Thanks for the great crafting ideas!
Haha, there is one scenario where I'll make futuristic terrain: if I start a post-apocalyptic D&D game with space marines as characters
I am glad that you didn't skip the refueling with oats step. The mushrooms were an epic addition. I find that the army painter paint separate less if you squeeze more out of the bottles. It has more paint and less thinner this way. Keep up the good work.
That packing job was 10/10
Only 9/10 because the noises were missing ☹️
I love these modular ruins! The paint job is simple, but really pops in the end. Thanks for a another great video.
This guy has created all the TH-cam categories in one!! ASMR, COOKING, CRAFTING, NARRATION
8:55
I'm here for this
ФдтэᏕ
œæţ§
I though of you 😂
@@BardsCraft I know. And I am honoured.
I commented this a few days ago but it seems to have disappeared so ΦДтэᏕ
One of my favorite channels. Great work! Looking forward to next week's craft.
I love your method of making mushrooms! I need to add that to my crafting arsenal!
Thanks for showing me how to do mushrooms cheap. An I like how your bricks are all different sizes. That helps me alot your stuff is always AMAZING!!
I have been so excited for this video as i am for every video :)
You should get a life
But really, thanks for the appreciation!
Those mushrooms are fire I've been looking for some good ones like this. Mass brick making was awsome. Great build!
I love painting nooks and crannies, the more detail, the more fun it is. I guess everyone has their niche. Soldier on Mr. B.
Thank you for your inspiration. My husband and I are getting ready to start crafting for our games that we play together with friends.
Hope you enjoy the hobby
1:52 LOLS! I love your sense of humor and ability to laugh at your own mistakes :) A very underestimated yet necessary skill in life.
I love the honesty of this video :) not trying to hide your mistakes
Use a drop or two dish soap to help the primer/paint flow into cracks easier.
Bard's Craft: Nothing can go wrong-
The Texturing Box: *Explodes*
You know I think I like the effect without the grey coat!
More cartoony but I think that's a plus for fantasy gaming table.
It is indeed more cartoony, and more contrast. But the walls became a bit darker than I wanted
These look cool,fascinating watching bits of card and foam turn into broken walls ..Great stuff 😀
I'm a simpel German. I see Underberg, I upvote. Oh, and your craft is amazing. Take my subscription good Sir.
I honestly think gray dry brushing on black is a very good look for stone, the black gives them one more level of dimension.
Nice and entertaining! Keep it up! One thing you forgot was to glue the mushrooms on their stems,now they will fall off quite easily!
The have stayd on well so far, of course if they are more exposed that's a good idea 👍
you are getting eeven better at this!
Nice , very good techniques to make scenery with out all the tools most TH-camrs use.
Those mushrooms are next level pleb crafting. Great job on everything!
It is always inspiring to se your builds
I'm just gonna binge your entire channel now
Thanks 👍
Awesome! I love they way they look. I just got done scratch building a giant spider for my campaign I'm working on.

Bard's Craft: Cut some shit up and shake it in a box
I really liked how you made the mushrooms.
Very good video, as always. I'll mourn the lost cutting noises, but even a few are better than none and I appreciate the intent. Thank you, bard of the oats.
Bard of the Oats, I like it 👍
"Nothing can go wrong..." Something goes wrong. 🤣
This channel is really useful!
Another great build. Hey, MAX DM Crafting channel mentioned you and about your knife skills and bark flocking. He really liked it.
My son and I call whatever that big knife actually is the "kitchen sword." Drawing cuts for the win, but your cuts are much straighter than mine! I probably need to eat more oats.

Love your technique! Your videos are an inspiration!!
This guy is a fucking treasure. I love this channel.
3:36 You can hide the corrugation of cardboard with computer paper (just take old character sheets/hand outs) and gluestick
It must be so fun playing D&D for you
tack sä mycket for the great video. I put my skill point in hot glue.
"Prodigious size alone does not dissuade the sharpened blade." 😎
I recently got into miniature figures painting. And now your videos have made me consider start doing some terrain crafting. Subbed!
I am so addicted to your channel Bard!
Yees... just as planned..
Timing indeed!. I'm working on Underdark ruins right now!. Sweet!
Cool! Good luck with those. I bet mushrooms work well for them aswell
Epic craft! Amazing! Greetings from Brazil!
really nice work 👍🏾
I love your dark blü stones! ^^ I keep trying to get a similar effect, but I keep failing. Next time!
While you were busy using a hot wire cutter, he studied the blade.

I do wanna point out, that Amazon is damaging to the hobby though, as it hurts the small stores we all know and love.

Der Rheinberger wünscht übrigens gute Reise 🤣 nice Video
Fantastic stuff, as usual. You're fast becoming my favourite tabletop crafter. I do wish I could get foam like that in the UK (nowhere that's near to me stocks anything like it, and right now not allowed to travel...)
Try bins in gadget shops
I cant believe how awesome all your terrain looks! And it always comes from such humble beginning like an oat box haha I used to do the same, cereal boxes were very handy ^_^
The jute grass looks as good if not better than that which you can buy.
Another great video. Love your channel, Bard. 👍😁
The miniature you painted looked almost like a statue. Maybe an idea to consider in the future for ruin scatter.
I had that excact thought, looked just like a statue. I know what I'll do with eventual extra minis
0:14 cool quote
Thanks 👍 For an epic song related to this, search "End of an Empire" by Turisas. (Finnish folk metal band)
Bard's Craft, Had a look, they’ve got some cool stuff! Thanks for the recommendation.
My Memaw gave us teaspoons of Underberg if our tummys hurt.
Honestly Bard, I am *VERY* happy and proud to be a Patreon supporter of you. 2nd tier. You keep rocking sir. You actually don't quite realize how inspirational you are to me on a personal level. Are you a member of the Table Top Crafters Guild on Facebook?
Wow, this is something else!
Fantastic work as usual, keep it up.
Thanks for another great build
Awesome! Maybe a bit more of satisfying cuting noises 😂? I think I start doing some tonight!
I usually use an empty mayo or peanut butter jar. The lids screw on tight for easier shaking.
I love those mushrooms!
Wow! This video gave me so many ideas, and this looks like something I can do with my 6 year old son.
Thanks! Good luck with the craft

One-Handed increased to 100!
I'm waiting on this quarantine stuff to subside a bit, then I'll be able to go get some of that fine foam. :)
not sure where you live but this foam you can get in your local home building shop, in germany we have hornbach and Obi (yesss we all made the joke that after episode 6 Obi-wan opened up his Home building shop XD ) cause that stuff is kinda essential for getting your house fixed ect. and a lot of people beeing depended on them beeing open it might be that you can visit them ^-^
This is what I did in the 2nd week quarantine ! XD
bough like 4square meter maybe 5 of foam which is 4cm thicc XD
Still have over the half of the material left !
@@anblueboot5364 All our hardware stores are closed in Canada right now. They're supposed to open next week, so I'll get to try then.
@@austinwhite3575 damn that's hard well I wish the best of luck !!
For now, just study the blade
what an amazing channel, instantly subscribed!
öates gang reporting in!
Really nice work, but you can for the next level up your brick layer skill !
👍👍
Yeah, better arches with keystones would help
1:53 you're a goblin genious xD
Потрясающе! Вы очень талантливы!
Turned out great man!
Thanks!
if you paint the ruins first with mod poge you could spray paint the ruins and foam would melt
awesome build!!
8:52 floor gang oh oh oh
