6 Cheap and Easy Greebles For Warhammer Buildings

In this video I'll show you how to make 6 features you can add to your buildings to make them come alive.
These are perfect to add some detail to your buildings for Warhammer 40,000, Kill Team or Necromunda.
Vents, boxes, pipes, and wires. These things are everywhere, but we rarely notice them. We usually filter them out because they’re not really interesting or relevant in our day to day lives. They’re just sort of there. But we can use these to add a level of detail to our terrain that will make it look more realistic and make it come alive.
It’s really quite simple. It’s just a matter of taking a bunch of basic shapes and combining them in interesting ways and giving them a paint job that supports the concepts.

Gotta love the floral wire. Here's a tip for you; You probably have phone or modem cables lying around that you don't need anymore. Cut the ends and open them up to get a ton of thin wires that are perfect in scale for miniatures.

[@thecultofcrafting]

Funny, I was thinking exactly that before I grabbed the floral wire. 😄

[@koliver91]

your videos deserve a way bigger audience. great quality content

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks, mate! 😊

[@obscurage]

Wonderful precision placing technique with the panel buttons!

[@redcat7932]

To simulate small light bulbs or rivets on metal sheets, you can use rhinestones (what girls glue on nails) by gluing them on transparent nail polish (the varnish will smooth out the edges of the "diamond" if you put a small drop on it with a match), But you need to quickly, before the varnish starts to harden.

[@thecultofcrafting]

Cool! I actually bought some a while ago for rivets, but I never thought about using them as light bulbs! 👍

[@derekburge5294]

Your weathering looks incredible! Gorgeous work!

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thank you very much! ☺

[@craigdavis2843]

I gave feedback on another video asking for a commentary. This is so much better given the voiceover. Thank you.

[@rohanalmond]

Fantastic work, this is exactly what I was looking for! The commentary and music are excellent too

[@thecultofcrafting]

Awesome, thank you! 😊

[@AvoidTheCadaver]

for circles, you can get a craft cutter that has a blade attached to a central pin. Should work great for thin card. I tried using it on thicker card stock. While it does work, it takes a lot more effort. Great way of making custom sized bases for weapons teams though.

[@MRaadesign]

Enjoying your builds. Really nice painting too. I just subscribed.

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks for the sub! 🙂

[@rugbymeat]

So simple to create yet they add so much detail to a build!

[@danivegh440]

another amazing vid mate, very inspiring, and might use some of these techniques, keep up the great work!

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks, man! Hope you do. Also, thanks for helping me make these videos. 😊

[@shinkiro403]

Incredible job and timing as usual 👏👍

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thank you, I really appreciate that. 😊

[@alessiodecarolis]

Nice works, with few things & fantasy it's possible to create everything, expecially with electric materials such as cables or old switches.

[@JohnGunter_Johnprime]

Great video with fantastic simple ideas for greebles.

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks! Glad you liked it. 🙂

[@stevemann40]

Ooooh its an electrical box! I could've sworn it was a discarded shopping bag

[@kailee87]

man i learned alot from you and did awesome stuff for my diorama, hope you do more props tutorial.

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks! That's great to hear. 😊

[@thesilverwalnut3314]

I’m always looking forward to your videos!

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks, that's very nice of you. 😊

[@reddogterrain]

This is quality stuff. I really like the ducts.

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks, mate! 😀

[@BPCustomCreations]

great video! I have no idea how TH-cam is so large. I never saw your channel before!

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks! 😊 Welcome to the channel then!

[@PatGilliland]

Nice and simple scatter terrain.

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks! Glad you like it. 🙂

[@Phickic]

Can you make a video about hesco barriers next? I feel like that's right up your alley.

[@thecultofcrafting]

I plan on doing one soon. 🙂

[@Phickic]

@@thecultofcrafting awesome. Love the content

[@michaelstarcher3104]

Excellent stuff, any suggestions on 50 Gal. Drums?

[@thecultofcrafting]

Nothing great, I'm afraid. I 3D print mine. You can take a piece of plastic tube or simple roll a strip of paper into a cylinder, glue a lid of cardboard to both ends and then make those bulges around the barrel by wrapping narrow strips of cardboard around it, like the ones I made for the air ducts in this video.

[@socialdistancing1289]

very good love these simple and small bits more plis (:

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks! 🙂 I'll try to think up more then.

[@mraide]

Nice

[@Bodya_CN]

What is this foam called exactly? I've never seen such material.

[@thecultofcrafting]

XPS foam

[@necromantikman]

Expanded Polystyrene

[@alfredpotts6136]

Extruded polystyrene, not expanded.

[@JoeDope]

Where you get that hole punch?

[@thecultofcrafting]

A local hardware store, I think. If you google "leather hole punch" you should find it. 🙂

[@seelenschlucht]

Can you make another diorama like the Warhammer christmas snowball fight? Maybe a wraith christmas dinner cooking party? And paint it with glow in the dark paint?

[@thecultofcrafting]

I like that idea. 🙂 Projects like that take a lot of work, and sadly, I haven't got the time for it this year.

[@donovian111]

Are you a surgeon in your day job? I have nowhere near the fine motor control required for these xD

[@thecultofcrafting]

No no, the surgery is just a hobby. 😄

[@dkoz81]

Thanks for all the great videos. Only thing that would be great is if you used a real system of measurement instead of that made up one.😊

[@thecultofcrafting]

Thanks! I think they're al made up. 😁

[@Bluecho4]

Nothing quite adds authenticity to a terrain project like greeble.
