- I try 3 different techniques on how to make tile floors for action figure displays and table top gaming. One painting mistake turned into a great result once corrected and came out better than anticipated! Hope this video helps you as you make your own dioramas or table top gaming pieces.

Really nice job !! Love the grunge, thanks so much
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching
I just found your channel and I'm so glad that I did. I love how you made the tiled floor by cutting directly into the styrofoam. I bought some styrofoam to try doing this, but I'm a bit nervous about it because I've never used styrofoam before. My method for making miniature tiles is soooo time consuming compared to yours, so I definitely have to start using the styrofoam blocks that I got. When I make my tiny tiles I paint a sheet of 250gsm cardstock all over with white acrylic paint, let it dry, and then I apply a mixture of scumble medium, acrylic paint and water to the paper with a sponge, dabbing the mixture randomly, and then I make the veins in the marble by using a selection of very fine brushes and a couple of feathers, which I dip into the paint and lightly drag across the cardstock. It works well but it takes a very long time to do. If I want the tiles to look like old porcelain I use a great product by Pentart, called 2 Part Fine Line Crackle Varnish. This stuff really is amazing. It makes any surface look like old porcelain with really fine hairline cracks going through it, so it's perfect for making old miniature plates and so on. It's solvent based so I started out only using solvent based antiquing wax by Pentart to highlight the cracks, but then I heard that you can use eye shadow powder, so I got out an old eye shadow palette of mine in dark greys and browns, and tried it out on some scrap wood, and it works really well.😄 I've subscribed to your wonderful channel. You explain everything very well. Cheers, from Amanda in Melbourne, Australia
Australia?! That's amazing! Thank you so much for your detailed explanation- I'm going to have to try to find those products here in the States and try some of those techniques. Thank you also for your support and kind words. And about the Styrofoam, here's it pretty cheap, so I would encourage you to just jump in and practice. Even if you mess up, you can flip it over and work the other side. Best of luck and thank you for watching!
I can picture these floors being a part of a madman's workshop, with all the stains and grime that comes with it. It would fit in perfectly with any horror scene. Can't wait to see the full build!
Thanks Mason- workshop is another great application! Great idea
Those look really good i like them. I admire you're being okay, with a mistake/ mess ups. i tossed so many in progress pieces out, because i messed up.
Thanks, Bruce! To be honest I do get frustrated, but I know it's part of the learning process and sometimes the mistakes lead to results that could be great! I never would have thought to wipe down the dark wash, but it added a layer I hadn't anticipated and really aged the project with a grime effect that looks cool. That said, I've had PLENTY of do-overs haha. thanks for the encouragement and support
You're welcome.
I actually have 4 good sized tile pieces lying around i intended for a gritty subway dio, but i hit a slump. and am currently in a rut creatively.
Gritty subway!! This comment is gold right here! I love it! These applications would be perfect for that, especially the chip-board walls. My brain never went down that direction but that would be great. Thanks Bruce!
Great vid! Really glad I subscribed!!
Thanks CP! I'm really glad you subscribed too lol
man been waiting for this kind of awesome simple tutorial, thanx man
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words and support
The 3 of them look very cool😊
Thanks Andy!
Like the first method the best. Very ugly in a good way! It is abstract and realistic at the same time. How thick is the chipboard, please?
According to the description, the chipboard is 1/16 of an inch, or 52 pt in weight. Here's the link in Amazon: CraftMore 12x12" Chipboard Heavy 52pt Weight Natural Color 25 Sheets a.co/d/i3qKyL1
Hope that helps!
