I think I was extremely lucky as a kid, there was a guy at our local gw that used to give me and my younger brother old terrain pieces that they either were going to be got rid of or would just be put out back for storage
Thanks for sharing my Warcry board ! I found in the street of Paris this GW board, certainly melted by sun, and decided to save it (and 'cause it was so astonishing to find this!!).
Really happy with your comments! Thanks a lot!
Wow! Crazy feeling having my pictures used. Feels surreal. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for your wonderful content!
Nice work mate.
I actually now request that you make a model of an actual gelatinous cube eating a city :D
Thanks for the advice! Really cool hearing your thoughts on it. You are absolutely bang on and in hindsight I should have used them for some flatter boards to get rid of the creasing! But we live and learn!
For lava flows of a similar effect use a syringe, draw up plaster of paris and squirt it on. I found if you let it sit for a bit it thickens up if you need.
I'm so pleased you took my warped diorama into consideration for your video. Thank you so very very much for taking the time to give your expert advice on fixing it (and possible future projects using foam). It is very well appreciated. ❤
3 levels of board, that would make a great video. You do the expert one, find someone with a little experience and a total newbie to do the other two. You can then get us to vote on the best.
I can't wait for the roll up mat videos!
I am looking forward to your small scale wargaming. I have started the process of doing the same thing. Converted everything from inch to CM from the board to the units and printed out 2 6k one page rule armies and printed out the board this month. Now to paint everything =) nice thing is the board if fully modular using hexes so I am using your hang it on the wall behind a poster idea. Keep up the good work!
Luke, I've been watching you for a few years now and you (plus Black Magic Craft) have advised my terrain builds. Made a board a few years back which I'm proud of and I can't seem to get rid of even though it's never been used and needs some work. More important, I have seen your skill and knowledge grow over the years but you still keep it real and understand that people are on a budget. Please can you do these review videos as a regular thing,it helps us both with your advice and the exposure. Cheers mate, hope to see you at a Games Con sometime in the future.
Such a good video Luke, me and the missus laughed so hard..."Gelatinous Cube".I have another one to try soon but waiting till I can be bothered to pay or "make" my own pressure pot, though seeing how well my Dystopian City turned out I am proberly safer to just buy one.🤣 Really want to see the unedited version of this vid👍🏻
to be fair I thought it still looked pretty incredible, i imagine surrounded by other like pieces it would blend in better.
@@JoeHardacre Your to kind matey👍🏻🤣
Learning is a series of mistakes, untill you get it right. then, wow, you got it.
For the distopian resin one, there's the possibility that it can be partially saved with some high gloss polyeurethane brushed over it. Some of that looks like it might be on the sides of it.
This also reminds me of back when TerranScapes used to do it...a rather fun thing for learning a lot of random things or getting ideas when it's not one of your own pieces and if it is, can give some ways to improve or fix things
Appreciate the advice matey, thank you. Going to try it when I grt a chance👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the update Luke, was missing the terrain builds, good luck with the new space, looking forward to the next build...
The big take away for me was if you are doing multiple pours to color part A of the mix so the color is consistent through out the pour! :D Thanks for sharing! Its always fun to see what everyone is building out there
Thanks for the video, looking forward to the roll up mats!
6:38 - 8:40 Drinking game: have a drink every time Luke says "cardboard".
Cardboard terrain is pure nostalgia
They're not failures, they are lessons.
Doesn't make you feel much better when these 'lessons' happen though.
Thank you, for everything. I hope one day to hear "How do guys ! It's Luke " again. I have learnt so much from you. Best wishes.
The lava looks like epoxy resin dirty pour. You can do really nice waterfall effects or the nicest fake marble flooring. Dirty pour is art in it self
Kudos to Josh for wearing The Hellfire Club T Shirt. Legendary. He is Eddie Munson in RL.
Cheers Luke! Thanks for the advice on how to make it more realistic. I’ll be trying a bit of touching up now from what you said. Thanks. 😀
You helped me build my massive flames of war table ages ago, I sent you a message on Instagram and you walked me through some flocking techniques.
Getting back into the hobby and rediscovering your channel has been awesome, glad to see you're still churning out the content!
Loved this Luke your knowledge and tips are amazing cheers from an old old railway modeller regards Fred
Thank you , Luke .
~Luv~Luv~Luv~

That's the next Godzilla opponent sorted then:)
Really love this format of video
Excellent views of others work. I think this should be a regular feature!
The warping even happens with wood or plywood. Especially the cheap wide planks made from a few 1x2s edge glued. The wood expands and contracts at different rates and the glue bond breaks. Best to immediately coat it with varnish or what ever. I have yet to figure out a way to fix twisted plywood base. Adding a frame of 1x1s will at least hide the twist and the ground cover takes care of the rest of it.
the reason this happens is because you apply glue or paint or varnish to one side, but not the other. the glue/paint/varnish shrinks causing it to warp. the way to fix this is to remember - whatever you do to the top, do to the bottom.
@@dirtyhandskev True, but in the two cases I've had, I did seal the entire base plate. Next time I'll put on several coats of epoxy. The splitting of the 1x2 glued pieces was fixed by clamping the panel down and driving verrrry long screws in from the sides.
@@sabrekai8706 imo, I would just stay away from wood in general. Woodworkers use special types of joinery specifically for this reason - wood will always move and swell with temp and moisture no matter what you do to it. Also wood workers account for this with bigger tolerances or grain orientation.
Great vid, look forward to the boards
A lot of good information in these critiques.
You mentioned researching cosplay for a flexible gaming board. I had an idea years ago for a material that you could consider (I'm not professional so the cost was not feasible). Use silicone to make a mold of an already made table, spray or pour creature cast rubber, embed a fabric mesh for strength, and when it sets you'll have a durable neoprene rubber table. It's paintable with acrylic paints.
Creature Cast is not too expensive for the sizes they offer, but the silicone is what's pricey. Another benefit too is the mold is reusable for mass production.
As you might expect, with McFarlane putting out 1:12 40K figures and Joy Toy 1:18 scale ones, people are starting to play Kill Teams with those. Any specific advise aimed to those brave souls?
Just take your toys down to the local building site after everyone goes home.
@@jprp999 I live in the UK. We stopped building thing in the early 90's round here. No such commodity. Any other ideas?
@@SebastienlovesCookieswirlc There must be some abandoned shops that look like they were bombed out?
@@SebastienlovesCookieswirlc make friends with a local large-scale train modeller?
@@andrewamann2821 I appreciate the intent, but there are no 1/18 or 1/12 scale train models on the market. Next?
“…not pictures of bums. Let’s get cracking!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm starting a Gaunt's Ghosts in 15mm... it's all your fault, but then at 12 quid for a platoon I can't really complain 😄 Looking forward to seeing the mini armies video.
Thank you for your tips, most helpful
Cracking vid mate
We need a bum shaped terrain!!!!!!
love how it takes 3 1/2 mins to get to the actual video
I like that you were nice and gave good tips. Too many videos like this the person is just unnecceserily mean 😓
"Not pictures of bums please / Lets crack on" priceless...lol
i think Robert should let the warp overtake his diorama. It is a good pain.
Where I can send my photos of terrain for next edition of such video(?)
I was wondering about this... Here's hoping you absolutely Roast mine.
Dang didn't even show up...
Luke fogetting his own outro for a change lol.
I’m seeing the title of the video, and now thinking maybe it was good he didn’t open my wetransfer 😂
New sub
In the unedited video on Patreon, do you look at more builds than just these? I sent in photos and videos of a Legion table I’m building and I’d love to get your thoughts on it if you happened to look at it on video..
hiya please does anyone know where to buy plastic diamond plate sheet , i see modellers use it but its a crazy price on ebay, cheers.
Hi Luke. Do you still find time to play your Bass?
Nice video Luke!
so cool
warping is the worst.
Epoxy resin is the only thing who have the ability to drive me madder that my ex girlfriend...
With peace and love it shouldn't take 4 minutes to get into it.
