- In this video I use RAMEN and SUPERGLUE to make a ruined concrete building! This was a fun challenge. Perfect high carb project for 40k, Necromunda, Bolt Action or any other wargame with a ruined city or concrete buildings!

Why this works: You are basically making baking soda/superglue plastic reinforced with springy gluten rebar.
Ramen noodles are made with kansui water, an ingredient you can buy in a lot of Asian markets. Kansui is water mixed with potassium and sodium bicarbonate, and you use it to regulate the acid/base ratio in noodles. It will also give the noodles that 300-year-old parchment look and springy texture. The stuff I use when I make ramen is baked (concentrated) sodium bicarbonate and water. There's recipes all over the place.
Please be careful with the concentrated sodium bicarbonate. They call kansui "lye water" for a reason. Rinse with water, and wipe down with a cloth covered in vinegar if you get some on your skin. Do not let children or dogs roll in it.
Two more quick thoughts:
1) Absolutely do not eat this stuff. As I said above, it is basically plastic. Plastic made with cyanoacrylate glue, where cyano- means cyanide.
2) If you applied a latex sealant to this stuff before you started painting it, this stuff could actually stick around for years. I see no reason you couldn't enjoy your cyanide-flavored Ramen terrain for a decade.
Damn dude, very cool. im pinning this
@@MKempICI While it is true that cyano means cyanide. It doesn't mean that cyanide will be liberated if you eat it. Cyanoacrylate is used as a medical glue. Cyanocobalamin is Vitamin B12. It has a cyanide moiety in it, but is of course harmless as a water soluble vitamin
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Hope it helps! Could you comment on how well this stuff sands down?
Eating glue can of course cause other problems
At 6.22, "Good God, he's using the flavor packet."
Somebody stop me
"What flavor do you want your wargame terrain?"
-
"Ramen flavored."
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop I'm slightly dissapointed that you used wash instead of soy soauce.
Not only was that a big brain move, but it gave me a better idea how to apply weathering powders. Nice!
And when you're starving because you spent all your food money on miniatures, you can eat the terrain. :D
I'm dying of laughter as you are using the flavor packs as paint. This is your chance to cross over into a cooking channel.
Eric's Cooking Workshop channel confirmed
I'm really curious whether it smells like the flavor pack now.
When I started watching this I thought it was the silliest video ever, another click-baity attempt at our terrain-craving expense to show us something that would have been a waste of time if anyone but a youtube content creator attempted it. But then you kept going, with the flavoring as texture paint, and then the wash, and finally, the poster. That's when I realized I just watched a piece of art. And I have no regrets.
Thanks! TH-cam warps creators towards click bait things with its fickle algorithms but I will always try to deliver on anything enticing in my titles and respect my audiences time and clicks.
If you find the kind with dried veggie packets, you don't have to buy expensive flocking materials anymore.
Why are you people even considering this ? WHY DO I WANT TO TRY NOW ???
is this a fever dream
Its just the fumes
Wax Paper for CA glue!
Parchment is porous (which is how wet palettes work) so the glue can still grab hold.
Wax cannot be penetratred.
This is flipping hilarious, man. I love it.
And now every college student has to choose between eating or making needed terrain . . . (as an aside, BMC, Miniac, Eric, Ninjon, Midwinter, Squidmar - you've all been on fire this week)
Years ago I crafted sandbag walls from dried beans. I thought "man, this is crazy". Looking back I can see how pedestrian it was as a project as I had no flavour packets. ;-)
Poorhammer at its quintessential highest!!
(Serious note...your "glamour" sequence just keeps getting better... especially the synced music to imagery)
🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃
Thanks!! I love doing that part. I have some new tech coming that should make it even better
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Excellent news...cut to Carly Simon shilling for Heinz ketchup
Beef flavouring as a weathering pigment... probably the best hobby thing I ever saw.
This comment reminded me of when Jaime Lannister is talking to Barristan Selmy about killing the Smiling Knight with a counter riposte in GOT
“My auspex is indicating extremely high levels of sodium throughout this structure.”
Me as the video is spooling up: NO. No, no way!
Me after video: Eric is a mad genius! He made Adobe out of Ramen!
I'm a very silly man
pretty damn convincing concrete... good job!
This is ridiculous! I love it. I lost it when you added the flavor packets. Thank you.
Had to! Can’t just waste good crafting materials
This is both stupid and brilliant at the same time. Most impressive.
So stupid!! hahaha
Your pun at the end reminds me of that old saying "When in Rame, do as the Ramens do".
Help my eyes rolled back too far into my head now theyre stuck haha
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop stop sniffing the glue
Soldier #1: "Quick, let's take cover in those ruins!"
Soldier #2: "Which ones?"
Soldier #1: "The beef flavoured ones!"
The poster is perfect. I love it
I think this is the most original and creative way to combine ramen noodles and terrain building...BIG THUMBS UP!
This. Is. Awesome!
I don't think I'll ever replicate this, but just knowing it exists brings me immense joy 😂
Is this your tribute to Chad Kroger?
Hahaha 🤣 that glorious ramen hair is an underrated look
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Ok, serious comment this is inspired. Flavour pack wash? Poster from package? Honestly? I love it.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial thanks man, really glad you liked it
OMG! Exactly the kind of creativity I love! I have no desire to use 3D printers or laser cutters. The fun of building terrain is in the down-to-earth creativity. Thanks, Eric. So fun - and useful!
I almost lost it at the beef weathering... then you made the tiny poster from the wrapper.... PERFECT ..👍👍👍
Painting realistic rust streaks is hard. Sometimes you have to... ...noodle it. ;)
Great !
"In the far future there is only instant noodle (grimdark flavoured)"
Thanks for the good work and inspiration my good Sir !
I JUST SAW THE TITLE AND I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO BE A GOOD ONE
That quality hobby content I clicked the bell for to be sure.
Hahaha thank you :)
This is exactley the kind of quality content I'm here for...
See, this is why I like this channel. See a stupid youtube trend? Make useful content out of it.
Such a stupid trend! Hahaha
Media upcycling at its finest.
Wow, now this is terrain I can make!!
This is absolutely amazing - I laughed at your delivery of some of the lines dude, great laconic timing.
YOU ARE A GENIUS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THIS WAS AWESOME!
Thank you!! 😁
This is a game changer for those long winded Apocalypse games. No more time limits. Games can run for weeks, months, even years, without the need to break for puny mortal needs like sustenance. As the battlefield is destroyed, YOU CAN EAT IT.
Lmao that sounds like hell
Hey, fun fact. You can bake un-boiled ramen with a bit of butter and say some sesame seeds to make a crunchy salad topping. 375ish for 15-20 minutes stirring every 5minutes untill golden brown.
I laughed out loud at the ramen noodle poster.
But I have used Food Lion logos cut from boxes more than a few times on taverns and inns in my D&D campaigns.
I see someone was never scolded by their mom to not play with the food :D
Incredible find. Had to see it to believe it.
I've mostly seen people repair tables and chairs with ramen. But seriously, it worked well for the walls.
This is so totally and utterly bonkers, and I love it.
Loved that, i think the topper was the little homage to the Ramen dude.
First industrial buildings out of paper/cardboard and now ruins out of ramen? You are definitely making the cheaphammer side of the Force happy!
Yeah it was a fun little experiment!
Totally insane, lol. I love the fact you used the SEASONING for some of the grit, LOL! And the poster from the pack was gold. So much fun in this video. And insanity. Let's not forget the insanity. :D
This is hilarious, but also resulting in a surprisingly effective and convincing result. I also very much appreciate the mentality of using the whole Buffalo and using the flavor packets as weathering powder as well as the poster taken from the packaging. This video is what I needed today on multiple levels.
Using the whole buffalo. Indeed haha. How come its noble to use the whole buffalo but everyone gets grossed out by the parts in hotdogs? Double standard amirite?
Variety of the packages is the real secret to this build.
Can’t be epic without the flavors.
Might have to incorporate adding some beef wash to my future builds 👌
You really don't have to. hahaha
This is absurd. Excellent work, as always.
The ending was amazing
Thanks Ryan
That came out a lot better than I expected. Cool. It looks like it could work well for weather stucco walls in a Mediterranean diorama.
It probably could! Good thinking!
Something I never would have thought of in a million years!
That is probably a good thing! I have a very strange brain haha
I have a set of xps foam shale cliffs topped with grass. I took a page out of Bard's Craft's book and used dried dill for the grass. Those pieces still smell really nice.
I give this video a X out of X! (That's 10 in Ramen numerals). Sorry, couldn't resist... anyway, your video and your originality are fantastic!
veni vidi vici lol
Long live the Ramen Empire. Great work man, and thank you for this bright idea.
I was supposed to be on TH-cam looking for some music when I saw you had a new video. Now I'm watching a build video featuring probably one of the most affordable crafting materials available. I'm captivated yet again. Very glad to watch your progress on this channel. Thanks for all of the content!
Dang Eric ... You're a man after my heart on this one ... Love it!!
Absolute madlad. Ace tutorial though, looks great.
That's a quite good showcase of how proficient application of glue and paints can allow to use just about any material.
And the resulting ramen MDF is only marginally less edible than the original material.
This just blew my mind
Im glad lol
"Ramen Concrete!" Well done Sir! Hahahaha I love this video!!!!!!
You make it look so damn easy to add the weathering "washes". I dont know why but mine always look so out of scale. I admire your talent with industrial, post apoc, futuristc. Just spot on!! Thanks for taking the time to make content!!! Inspirational, entertaining and enjoyable!!
it disturbs me to no end that this looks good.
hahahah😂, your idea it's brilliant, but the results its beautiful
Thank you :)
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop your welcome
Probably that tastiest piece of terrain I've ever seen!
"Eric, that was a fun game. But why do my space marines smell like chicken noodles?"
The end texture is actually surprisingly good for rough concrete. Pretty neat.
He used the flavour packet - outstanding! Lol
HAD TO
I saw someone airbrush and paint a "cyberpunk 2077" pc build and I thought of your channel and then I remembered all of the pc builds floating around the internet in the early 2000's before all this RGB lighting. I wonder what you could do with a junked desktop. Thanks for the delicious content 🍜.
this is too funny, flavor packets and the poster threw it over the edge haha
I lost it when you started using the flavor packet
Your videos get better each upload. Keep up the great work!
Thanks, will do! Hoping for a quantum leap in quality and production in the near future. lots of things in the works...
Eric you legend, that was one of the best hobby videos I’ve ever watched!
I barely do terrains (cool ones) and dioramas, or i even end them (many things un painted).
You make a fakin ruin using ramen and looks like real concrete.
I feel respect and admiration and a bit of hate all at the same time.
I love it !
Fantastic video! You sir, are a madman! I would never of thought of using Ramen noodles and super glue to make concrete structures.
Those crumbled bits of noodle look like a very nice substitute for cork as rubble.
Totally! There is certainly some potential in this technique
Whoever invented nonstick Reynolds Wrap should be canonized.
Superior to parchment paper IMO

The poster detail is really amazing!
Thank gods someone found a use for those things
This is pretty insane. Nicely done. Not a technique I'll be using any time soon, but I love your inovative ideas.
Hahaha I can't believe you added the flavour packets!
The necromunda hive city looks so good! Would love to see more jungle though
Brilliant. Even more so to use the flavour pack wash and the poster. Gotta love your Ramen empire, very couragious to say that. Lol. All the best
The little poster was a glorious touch
Thanks, i was pretty pleased with that myself
"Ruins from the Ramen empire." Actually a good one! I laughed. Punch me.
Awesome build, looks great. Never would have thought you could do that with ramen.
Yeah me neither lol
Love the experimentation with new materials, the flavor wash is genius!. I think this might work well as a texture on a foam building with more advanced designs the foam board can give you to start. Thank you for the inspiration sir, great video!
Doing a seriously good job out of what you'd expect to be a joke!
Yesterday I made a clump of alien spore shooting mushrooms...from cigarette buts, used the tobacco to make "grass" and even a tree stump outta a cigarette butt lol finished it off with kitty litter for dirt/pebbles lol my first creation!😁
I was dying 🤣 thinking how funny it was going to be if you used the flavoring...and you did...I'm broken.
It's so nice to see a crafting video that's playful and silly again. So many crafting videos are so glum and "technical"
Post this on Reddit you mad lad so I can give it a gold. This is ridiculous
Ingenious! Also probably your cheapest build yet!
That pun at the end was pretty good.
I see a Ramen Empire building set coming! 😁👍
i wonder if wax paper would get around the super glue sticking problem
That works surprisingly well! Really looks like miniature concrete :-)
I thought this meme was dead.... also I thought this was just a meme.
NOW this meme has permission to die lol
@@EricsHobbyWorkshop I don’t think it can die now, you have made it immortal.
MAN, how did you miss it? use some sculptors mesh in between layers of ramen dust in your mold to get the reiforced concrete look with steel bars poking out. BTw ramen terrain is mindblowing, love these builds, kinda ghetto
I thought of it, but I wanted to keep it pure ramen for this build. Let me know if you try it!
This video has a lot more depth than one would expect haha
Great video and solid pun! 👍
Awesome, i can get noodles from morrisons for 14p a pack, just need a supplier for really cheap superglue now :) Great Stuff Eric :)
Does anyone else jam out when the outro plays?
