I just want to say you have improved so much over the past year or so at making videos. It's been awesome following your journey. And of course: Very nice little add on - that wood grain
Yea, over the past several months I've been trying to really refine the video making process, and I think over the last several episodes I've really got it locked in. I want my videos to be as artful and interesting as possible while building tiny things out of styrofoam :)
Black Magic Craft Making videos is as much an artform as working with styrofoam. Kudos to you for your mastery of both! Cheers.
using the solvent in sharpie ink as a way to score the grout lines into the battlement facade is a stroke of genius
I'd suggest two things to strengthen them.
The first is to take a toothpick on each of the underside joins. It just reinforces the connection and if you do it right, they shouldn't add any height to the end result. If you want cross ones as well, it is doable, but would probably leave a visible gap at the ends.
The second thing would be to take the flat ended tacks and regularly space them along the exterior. They would look rather interesting visually and strengthen the entire piece. As an additional bonus, if you find ones with the right metal, you can also use them as mounting points for some magnetic addons such as banners, ladders, or even some siege equipment.
Just starting in the hobby made a set of stackers and battlements. Using the modular idea, I created two end peices when added to the battlements can turn them into bridges.
These are awesome! My gameplan for tomorrow was to build a handful of stackers and cut out roughly a million bricks to use later. And these just added to that list 🤣
Dope. The color difference in the stones from the walls really make them look great.
Great Addon to these amazing dungeon stackers! Still have to craft them myself: These are next on line.
The intros make me come back for more!!!!
I hope these prove to be an easy and approachable build to enhance your tabletop gaming experience. Thanks for doing yet another great tutorial Jeremy!
All thanks to you my man.
Fantastic idea, Paul! Thanks for sharing! 🍺💨
Paul Schultz I smell commission
Joe Kulesza I’m just happy to share, knowing that I inspired something that’ll be on someone’s game table to enhance their game.
Joe Kulesza, then again I’d be lying if I didn’t admit to pipe dreams of commission work. Not quite at that level yet.
Thank you for your time in making this and your generosity in providing the template.
Thanks for sharing such a great idea! Excellent video! This add-on is going to make the walls incredible. I'm just starting in the crafting world, but I'm getting as much information as I can to craft props for my RPG sessions. Thanks again.
Love the stackers! I made some battlements DM Scotty style a while ago and they coincidentally happened to be exactly the right size for stackers. I have since made a handful of other items to go on top of them. Didn't think of the clip-on aspect though! Definitely doing that
Awesome build. Great video. Waiting for the 100th episode.
These rock!!! For the template, I'm going to add two or three simple thumbtacks in each cardboard piece, just to make sure they don't shift around while cutting the foam core. Otherwise, this is perfect!!!
I actually did that at first, but found it really wasn't necessary. You're mileage may vary.
Gorgeous build and tyvm for the template!
Love the editing on this video!
PS: I also love the video, but i just wanted to say that your editing has improved so much over all.
Keep up your great work!
Thanks, I love hearing when people notice that as I have been putting in considerable extra effort in terms of shooting and editing over the last several videos.
Nice and easy project, thanks again for a cool vid.
Thanks for making the template! These are awesome! Also yay Paul!
Robert Morehead, thanks!
Black magic craft you are just a legend !
Another cool video love it!
Great stuff! 🍺💨
What great inspiration your vids are!
That’s the goal :)
Dang it! Now I gotta add this to my crafting list! Lol
Great video mate.
sick! almost at ep.100!!!
This is sick!
Looks fantastic, but they could use some MACHICOLATIONS!!!! Also, where did you get that shirt? It's Awesome.
Naw man, keep it simple....
......redbubble.com
My first thought was in fact to build MACHICOLATIONS. However that would have made the build crazy complex. Just having the overhang implies that they are there 😉
In my mind, details like that are for set piece builds. The whole spirit of stackers is that they are super "lo-fi" terrain. Simple and utilitarian, and I think this design perfectly captures that spirit.
Breaking Inferno, nice reference to Shadiversity by the way. I recently got hooked on his channel as well. Very informative.
Perfectly understandable, mostly said it for the reference. Keep up the great work!
I would love to see a vid on how to decide what materials u should have for an idea so u can make it
look real good great idea
Really great video and I love the idea of these stackers. Hopefully I will be making some of my own soon!
I was curious, would you be able to design a sort of.. spikes wall -type of addon for it? Like ya know, orc type strongholds that have giant wooden spike walls instead of traditional walls around their base?
Grorl 🤔
The goblin barricade video is kinda close.
My dream is to see you playing tabletop with your friends!
One day hopefully the channel can afford to make that happen.
Check the DMG’s channel for the “Tilvertonians”, you won’t be disappointed
Paul Schultz oh man totally forgot about that!....yea worth a watch for sure!
I fell like modolar ladders will be easy and helpfull👍
Brilliant...
You can't beat dollar store foam board! :)
Really great looking and versatile battlements + stackers. How did you engrave the wood pattern into the top side? It looks awesome!
Mechanical pencil. Sorry for not showing, I’ve shown the method multiple times in other videos. Thought it would be obvious. My bad.
Ha! No worries, I recently came across your channel (it was a happy day when I did :)). I have to yet go through the backlog of videos. Thanks a lot for the reply.
0/10 not enough machicolations

Impressive work man :D
Where do you get your miniatures?
Do you have an archway piece? If it's just the top of the arch it could also be used for a low bridge.
How did you do the wood texture? Do you have a video on that? Great video.
I draw it with a mechanical pencil. I show the process in my Tavern Tables tutorial.
Skeletor T-shirt=automatic thumb up!
Funny, but I had nearly the same idea. I made them for towers with battlements on all four sides of the square.
Great build Jeremy.
You mention other stacker add-ons, but I haven't found any myself. Any chance you could point me in the right direction?
Thanks for your awesome tutorials man!
Been following Paul's postings on the FaceBook page. Always impressed with his stuff.
Great add on for the stackers. Sadly the link for the template didn't work for me as yet.
It's working now. Was just awaiting activation approval from drivethrurpg.
Thank you very much Dyrck!
"As a horde of butt-bears..." was what I thought I heard at first when I clicked this video
Nothing scarier than butt-bears.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial the name alone makes me afraid of what could be coming
How did you do the woodgrain?
I had always imagined what it would be like if JFK was my DM. lol
Modular ramp portions? To make these small bridges
Have you thought about using the cardboard template as a guide for your proxon? If there are no jagged places to catch the wire would it be possible to run the template gently along the wire and cut the parts faster?
Not only did I think about it, I tried it. That was my first idea. The problem is that cutting the cardstock creates small indents in corners where the wire gets caught. This results in very messed up jagged cuts. In the end I just found it easier to use the knife.
I think it would work if you took some time to make a perfect template. A laser cut one from wood or plastic would work well, but it would be difficult to make by hand.
Hey I was wondering if you had any updates on the modular doors?
Plans currently on hold. I’ve realized I don’t want to spend my life casting resin if the project gets huge backing. I may make a limited run (the amount I’m willing to spend time casting) and just sell them in small qty.
How did you get Mayor Quimby to do the voiceover for the intro?
Those are nice..! Is there a compiled list of stacker add-ons anywhere..?
Not yet because this is the first add-on :)
I was asking because you mention in the video there are many folks making unique add-ons and this is how you found this one. The list can be just not your channel, but all creators. Also maybe make a top 5 or 10 video of neat stacker ideas. That would be cool. Thanks for replying., keep up the great work...!
So far I havn't seen anyone else make videos on their use of stackers aside from Runehammer who built some in an episode. It's worth checking out.
Watch Black Magic Craft to learn how to MAKE terrain. Watch Runehammer to learn how to USE terrain.
Just to point out... you appear to have also made modular bridges...
How did you get that amazing wood texture?
By drawing it. Specifically with a mechanical pencil.
th-cam.com/video/DR6TyhUvtGQ/w-d-xo.html
That's amazing quality for just a pencil. Good on you sir.
Hm, I'm sitting here wondering how to add a bit of realism to these. The merlons would have to be taller, which is easy (they're there to provide cover from arrows, after all-they weren't decorative!). The problem is having the machicolations should jut out from the walls a ways and have holes in them that'd really weaken the pieces. The idea was that anyone who got past arrows to get to the wall itself would find death rain upon them from above through a hole in the nearest machicolation. Castle defenses were srs bizness! I'm just not sure how to do them right in foam. ;( Building them atop stackers is quite realistic-castle walls were not thin.
Modular😁😁
What is the name of this material you use to make the bricks? the big block. I am not finding this material in Brazil. 😭
blackmagiccraft.wordpress.com/foam-buying-guide/
Brazil
Celprom, Acital Isolamentos Térmicos e Acústicos, and Leroy Merlin
These are great, but I would add machicolations.
The great thing about this hobby is you can add whatever you want. Do it!
Why not make them flip able that way you have two different styles of battlement too?
How did you do the wood pattern for the floors?
I drew in wood grain with a mechanical pencil. Check out this episode where I show the technique in more detail:

Black Magic Craft thanks!
How did you make them look like wood planks?
I drew in wood grain with a mechanical pencil. Check out this episode where I show the technique in more detail:

Did you say Kurge?
Usually people in my part of Canada over annunciate (at least compared to most of America)....care-a-mel, .....but courage comes out as a drawl for some reason.
099......
Hope you’re not expecting some elaborate parody song next week :) I don’t have it in me.
So the printout is a pdf, and I can't alter it and can only print with no size change, and it prints slightly less than 3" is there a way you can make it a jpeg so that i can import it as a picture into publisher and then adjust the size?
This may be too late for you (will hopefully help others) but most printer drivers give an option to scale your printout, normally as a percentage. It may take a bit of trial and error to get the size exactly right if 100% or 'actual size' does not get it right for you. It may be that your paper size is different and your printer was doing a scale-to-fit.
What miniatures are those for the bugbears? *EDIT* At least the one I was interested in is the new stuff put out by Wizkids.
Wizkids.
This set actually contains 2 different minis both shown in the video, but the amazon listing only shows one of them:
amzn.to/2uNjdKM
The "leader" & one with the torch are this set:
amzn.to/2LDB7ac
Thanks for the reply!
but... non functioning machicolations!!! (looks really cool though)
Crenelations on both sides, huh... ;-)
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet
When you say your clear coat has the added benefit of "not yellowing over time", what are you alluding to that does yellow over time? After seeing your first stackers video, I made some circular ones. I just cut a 6" diameter circle and cut it in quarters (so 1/4 circle with a 3" edge). Then cut off 1/3 of it and glued it on top. photos.app.goo.gl/HV2mU4y7dK2eYi7y7
Those circular risers are pretty awesome. I might have to make some.
The Minwax that I usually use on terrain (and mention being out of here) can slightly yellow over time. It's from my experience pretty minimal and not something you notice on brown and gray terrain.
They need MACHICOLATIONNNNNNS!
whell a look in to and stuff you ues at end will not melt as long you have pained it me and just thoght of it not ues mod poges dont have it got durhams water putty and i can add say littl black to it and get a gray it will thinken up to yes in name rock hare will se as post em
not a fan of dungeon blocks myself, even though I love modular terrain. But this is a great idea nonetheless. :-)
Trees wouldn't be thhat close to a castle wall because they provide attackers cover and block line of sight. Sorry.
Nobody cares
1 more vid and than you hit 100 videos
3D print the template...
that like to dislike ratio is absurd... and deserved
The foam is covered in paint, that's why it didn't melt.
Not quite...Aerosol sprays with strong solvents can easily melt foam with a layer of acrylic paint on it. Many people find this out the hard way. Don’t assume paint will protect foam from rattle can melting.
The mod podge helps far more than paint but still isn’t a sure bet. It all comes down to the solvents and propellants in the spray can and the distance you spray from.
That was my point - it didn't melt because it was covered by other material. You said it "appears to be safe on foam" - well, you didn't test it on foam.
Yes I did. On raw foam like I test every spray I intend to use on finished products. And I advise everyone to test their clear coats before using them on finished projects.
Youre assuming this is the first time I’ve sprayed the product on foam which is kind of a poor assumption considering what I do.
What else was I supposed to assume when that's what you illustrated in the video?
Can you , please, translate your measurements in Metric system like majority of us Humans in 21. century? ...i said "please"!
Maybe learn to understand both metric AND imperial like every Canadian does? It's not that hard. Inches are better for some applications. Especially games that are played with a 1" form factor. Besides %90 of my audience is American and uses imperial.
