Haha I grew up on an unfettered diet of Bob Ross, Neil Buchanon's Art attack and blue Peter. I'm sure it has all filtered into my thinking. Thanks for watching 👍
I see and understand where your logic is coming from regarding the 40k and road materials. That got me thinking. In a not to distant future, 2029 to be exact. Those road materials were common place. I see a platoon of T800's, plasma rifles in hand scouring the rubble for what remains of humanity or, have I gone off on a tangent haha!
I enjoyed not only your build, but also your design philosophy. Taking notes from your environment, thinking about what is universal, what would change, and exploring how to translate that into miniature. What a brilliant result! Thank you so much for sharing your work, and your thoughts about the process.
Nice job. Your voice overs are relaxing, while the work you do is certainly entertaining. It reminds me of my childhood when I used to watch Bob Ross on TV. His soothing commentary and amazing skills always drew me in. I'm looking forward to the growth of your channel.
I have a similar approach to my builds. Crafting for the 41ST millenium is fine but there was a starting point to the war. Ruined buildings & terrain in those early years of the Imperium is where I like to work on. This is really nice work, I’ve started my own version of a wrecked Flyover because of your video, the beginning bits are currently under a pile of stacked books whilst the glue dries!
A good example (unless I am mistaken): in Necromunda lore there are massive superhighways/freeways made of wide concrete sections of roadways to go between Hive Cities that might be further away (as the maglevs were only viable between a few Spires/Hive Cities as far as I know). So this would work well for a Raider run in Necromunda as well.
Cheers bud! It was all a bit of an experiment as is the case with most of my builds but I'm really happy with how it turned out. More videos on the way 👍
That turned out great. About the only thing I could suggest (and you can do this afterwards) is to add a whole lot more rebar to the busted concrete. There is literally tons of it in a poured concrete structure. Get some flower wrapping wire and cut off small bits, half an inch or so. Start sticking them in in more or less orderly rows, bending them in various directions. Do it til you are satisfied with the look or go crazy, which ever comes first. The plastic cable brackets look really good, and it occured that the nail holes would be perfect for anchoring street lamps in.
Wow, I love your cracked concrete technique, I've never seen anybody else use the foam like that before, or even thought to do it. You got yourself a subscriber
Since getting into the hobby more seriously it has pretty much changed the way I see things. Pretty much everything is seen through the lens of how it could work, repurchased for a miniature scale haha. Thanks for watching
Amazing, love your work. I'm researching this art form to see how I can introduce it to my clases at a local high school in the western suburbs of Melbourne... you have given me some valuable information. Thanks heaps from down under...
Thank you so much and it is wonderful to have a global audience. I have quite a few videos that would be ideal for beginners/kids. I wish you the best of luck and hope the kids love it! Also if you ever have any questions I am always happy to help where possible. Thanks for watching 👍
It took me over an hour to watch this masterpiece b/c my newly adopted pup Bane, he just turned a year old on the 6th, pushed the phone out of my hands and literally did a front flip into my lap. Have you ever had a 65lb American Pitbull Terrier front flip in your lap? You can't ignore it. It's an MMA Body Slam move. I'm only 115lbs at 5'2" - he crushed me. lol Needless to say he made it difficult. Then when I did get to watch I realized your voice would be amazing for book readings which then led me to you sound like Clive Owen. In the end it all brought me back to the art at hand and I love it! That's all :) My adventure watching your video. haha
Yeah haha sounds like a complicated moment. And yes while I dont have a pitbull, I do have a cat, much smaller in size but vividly know the feeling when he launches himself for the top of the headboard onto my 'private' parts at 3am in a desperate attempt to learn to fly.
Thank you sir! It was a bit of an experiment to be honest but it came out really well. The process can definitely be fine tuned a little and could easily be adapted to any number of situations.
Great ideas for making a concrete raised highway. I want to make some for use in a Fallout based game, so you have given me lots of inspiration to do that! Thanks!
Modiphius Entertainment has a game officially licensed by Bethesda called Fallout: Wasteland Warfare. I've got some of the minis and can say that their resin cast minis are superb. They even have vault interior, Sanctuary house, Red Rocket and vehicle terrain piece stl files available to download for 3d printing on My Mini Factory website. It seems that all of the files that they have are taken directly from in game assets.
I have made plaster in a pan and then broken it up to make ruined concrete, and I have gouged foam to look like broken concrete, but I never thought about combining the two like this. Amazing idea here. You might get better adhesion to the foam if it is roughed up a bit first before spreading the filler on it.
Very good build. Bit of advice though, the areas with exposed metal like the barrel and the rebar sticking out of the bridge should be painted with a look of rust. It would add a lot to the scene with minimal effort. Keep up the good work!
Ways to spice up these terrain pieces further: -Tents made of cheese cloth, stiffened with PVA, over a frame of toothpicks. Can be placed singly or as small tent cities. -Lamp posts extending from the tops of the overpass, either whole or damaged. Can be made from cocktail sticks or the like. -Traffic cones, made from thin card stock folded into small cones and glued to card stock squares as a base. -Abandoned food vendor cart. Foam rectangle with a toothpick push handle and wheels made from beads. Topped with a tiny drink umbrella.
Haha appreciate the feedback. I had so many ideas similar to yours on how to go further with this theme but equally I have to balance my time due to youtube. Really appreciate your comments and maybe I can incorporate these in future projects
April 25, 2022---Oh boy....talk about leading me down this rabbit hole. This was something I would of never thought of. Have the Phoenix vaccuform highway overpass and haven't seen it for sale for a few years at least. Plan WAS to cut out the parts, glue 'em together, then make some BIG, 2 part silicone molds so I could pour plaster of paris into. Garbage bag trick was also a new one3 on me. On YT, there's a video where a guy uses black, water based paint on a piece of glass and when dried, will pull them up to make like garbage bags. Got back into modeling, but going for 1/35 scale zombie/apocalypse dioramas, with me copying thousands of photos/ paintings. One of them shows an elephant walking across an abandoned overpass, with some greenery now growing up thru the cracks. This got me to checking how the homeless live under bridges and I even found a photo where someone's built a shack of wood and other stuff, which is supported by the space between the I beams of the overpass. Good place to hide from zombies, especially if you use a rope ladder. Thanks again for the video.
My pleasure and sounds like you got a big project on your hands. I wish you the very best with it and if you get stuck at any point, I'm always happy to answer questions and help in any way I can. Would love to see it when it's done. 👍
Excellent!! Another great build! Got me thinking of all the sorts of things you could have added to this, abandoned car, ruined signage, street lighting etc. Looking forward to your next one!
@@creativecuts7803 Dude u knocked it out the park as always. I'm working my way through your vids, while thinking about shanty towns an tiny trash bags
Great work! Super glad to have found your channel! Your 'filler' method that you used for the road also works a treat for walls/bunkers that you want to apply weapons damage such as bullet holes. This is what I did in my bunker build video. You attention to detail and eye for colour is inspiring, and I am looking forward to your next project with great interest.
Duracrete roads replaced the old world constructs and continued to serve as guides for surface traffic. They remain to this day, buried and damaged, but still the most prominent the old world structures.
Another great build, you use many of the same materials and methods that I do. For a good stone texture try using the filler paste in a pot - just add a layer of water into the top of the pot and it allows you to paint/stipple it and gives you a good solid finish.
Thanks man really appreciate your feedback. And great tip, I'll keep that one in my back pocket haha. As for materials and stuff, I just build with what I have to hand and generally glue my fingers together 👍
Gees I really want to make this. I started one years ago but it got thrown out 😭 I'm thinking more walking dead than 40K but it would do both of course. A different genre like zombies or near future would warrant grasses growing in the cracks and at the road edges in a way that the likes of 40K wouldn't normally have. Really great models, I've hit all those buttons, cheers!
Thank you. And I cant tell you how many projects I started ended up in the bin. The models come and go but the knowledge always stays. Appreciate all the support 👍
Excellent work! Very inspiring with lots of great ideas. Bookmarked this so I can reference it once I start working on my Necromunda terrain. Also nice to see someone implementing graffiti, who clearly understands the fundamentals of it! Subbed.
Cheers! Glad it inspired you and yeah grew up doing lots of graffiti and it kills me inside when I see people attempt it badly. Even bad graffiti is difficult to fake haha
@@creativecuts7803 Yeah, I guess its the same as any other craft. It's hard to replicate realistically/competently without the experience. And maybe even harder still to do it in a way that seems inexperienced, when you know how to do it properly. Wouldn't mind seeing you do a more "proper" colourful piece or throw-up on another build. Anyway, I like seeing the reference you're inspired by and I enjoy your choice of music. Keep up the great work!
This is a lovely build with some nice techniques. I was very pleased to see that you, like me in my latest vid, revived the miniature refuse bag to add to our terrain. Lovely work, man. I am looking forward to seeing more from you.
Looks great! I liked how you made the cracked concrete road with the foam underneath. If you are down for requests, please make a diorama where a superhero like lands or falls and creates a crater from the force. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for getting involved and your feedback. Nice idea for a future build and it has been added to the list of future videos. Cant promise it will be soon as the list grows by the day, but its on the list 👍
this is interesting as I'd always planned on doing a city terrain set based on brutalist architecture instead of the usual crumbling gothic ruins. not that there's anything wrong with that but I just wanted to do something a bit different. it does make me wonder if the 41st millenium has multi story car parks.
I'm with you dude, strange how space marines seem to be completely obsessed with gothic architecture and in particular notre dame. But its your world, if you want multi story carparks who is gonna stop you haha! Thanks for watching 👍
the only thing I would change is to give the steel sticking out from the concrete an orange/brown rust look to give more variation in colors. Otherwise really well done!
Just found this video. Its really good, both informative and creative. Just wondering how the cracked "concrete" has held up over time being used in games?
Yeah it held up better than expected to be honest. I have since given then a couple coats of matt varnish and that has really toughened things up. Plus is a broken wasteland so if a piece chips a bit it just adds to the overall look. The occasional touch up of paint but nothing major. Tha ks for watching 👍
there still highways in most of the hive city, they're more like american one but cranked up to 11. also they use concrete , and my source are ravenor and einsenhorn novels, there somme moment when the cities are described. These diorama reminded the movie The book of elie,, the movie is so bleak and have such visual, mostly the crumbling highways . .
Looks great! What is it with growing up in London and wanting to have a ribbed city board - I'm the same! You should try out This Is Not A Test, you already have the terrain for it. Keep up the great work!
You animal! Bob you are a legend. Usually I try to get a video out every two weeks but occasionally work will delay things slightly but lots more on the way. Maximum respect 👌
Haha limited options in the UK at moment. Lidl's middle aisle if I remember. I came as a big set of children's floor tiles and I just cut them down. But its real name is EVA foam. You can kind it easily on amazon
1:01 i mean a highway is the simplest thing it doesn't need much improvement aside from materials so it probably wouldn't be concrete and steel but flashcrete and ship grade titanium or something
I know if engineers in the 40k millennium are still using concrete for roads then I would very disappointed. I hope they wouldn't be using plastic rubbish bags either and would have solved the homeless problem but ... as something relatable and looks cool, it is what it is haha
@@creativecuts7803 naw there's still a massive homeless problem in 40k and a food problem which is why the dead are ground up and served as food called corpse starch
Channeling Bob Ross in terrain tutorials! I love it!
Haha I grew up on an unfettered diet of Bob Ross, Neil Buchanon's Art attack and blue Peter. I'm sure it has all filtered into my thinking. Thanks for watching 👍
top notch, made me think of the fallout games. Simple but nice.
Those bin bags just blew my mind. Brilliant.
Simple but effective. Thanks for watching
Those rubbish bags have captured my imagination! They are *chef's kiss*
If you can find beauty in my rubbish then that's a win for me haha
@@creativecuts7803 well you know what they say, "one person's rubbish..."
Good luck with whatever project it inspires and I would love to see it when its done 👍
In the grim darkness of eternal lockdowns, there is only Crafting
And Crafting, Crafting Never Changes.
WooWooooWooooo O.o
I'm getting some serious District 9 vibes from this. I love it!
Love that film so I'm sure it influenced me somewhere along the way haha. Thanks
Damn I would love to see a tiny shopping cart build
Me too!
I'm imagining a frame made from bent paperclips, and then a "basket" made from stretching wall mesh tape over it to create the grid.
“Nice little accidents”
Brilliant!!!
Awesome. Those are great back drops of post apocalypse movies.
Glad you enjoyed and it sparked your imagination
Lots of inspiration for my small project. You are Zen and the art of Modelling.
When I am modelling I am in my happy place and I'm glad that comes across in my videos. Thanks for watching
I see and understand where your logic is coming from regarding the 40k and road materials. That got me thinking. In a not to distant future, 2029 to be exact. Those road materials were common place. I see a platoon of T800's, plasma rifles in hand scouring the rubble for what remains of humanity or, have I gone off on a tangent haha!
Mix in white glue to your plaster and it sticks to everything. I do it all the time, works great
Great ideas and always love hearing everybody else's approaches. We all learn from each other
I enjoyed not only your build, but also your design philosophy. Taking notes from your environment, thinking about what is universal, what would change, and exploring how to translate that into miniature. What a brilliant result!

Excellent video, has given me lots of ideas for the fallout scenery I'm building 👍🏻
A good example (unless I am mistaken): in Necromunda lore there are massive superhighways/freeways made of wide concrete sections of roadways to go between Hive Cities that might be further away (as the maglevs were only viable between a few Spires/Hive Cities as far as I know). So this would work well for a Raider run in Necromunda as well.
Nice idea! I play more 40k but used to play some necromunda when it first came out. I think I had some house esher if I remember correctly.
This looks absolutely AMAZING!! Creating chaos out of new materials fascinates me.......great eye for detail!! THX for sharing
Another brilliant video. Thanks so much.
Great! Rusty reinforcing bars sticking out of the broken surfaces would look superb (I think).
Yeah, I did try to have some wire poking through but I defo could have made more of it. Thanks for taking the time and appreciate the feedback!
Very nice job on those over passes.
Cheers bud! It was all a bit of an experiment as is the case with most of my builds but I'm really happy with how it turned out. More videos on the way 👍
That turned out great. About the only thing I could suggest (and you can do this afterwards) is to add a whole lot more rebar to the busted concrete.

I completely agree. Lots more rebar needed. Something I will add in the future.
Fantastic work! The build is great but I really think it's your use of color that makes the piece something really special.
You are the best actor and TH-cam channel
Wow, I love your cracked concrete technique, I've never seen anybody else use the foam like that before, or even thought to do it. You got yourself a subscriber
Thanks! Just using what I have to hand and shopping for materials is very limited at the moment. But make me think more creatively with what I have.
@@creativecuts7803 Well your creativity has definitely inspired my future works :)
Awesome build. The music became blade runner very quick at 14:40, fit the piece nicely
Nice job again. Used this method on a diorama I did several years ago.
👍👍👍
Who could’ve thought to use speckle like that!❤️

Amazing would love to see what you come up with
Beautifully done! the cracks and graffiti nailed the feeling of urban ruins :D
Thanks. Glad you liked it
I have made plaster in a pan and then broken it up to make ruined concrete, and I have gouged foam to look like broken concrete, but I never thought about combining the two like this. Amazing idea here. You might get better adhesion to the foam if it is roughed up a bit first before spreading the filler on it.
Good shout about the rougher surface. It was a bit of an experiment really but work out alright. Thanks for the tip and more videos on the way soon 👍
Very good build. Bit of advice though, the areas with exposed metal like the barrel and the rebar sticking out of the bridge should be painted with a look of rust. It would add a lot to the scene with minimal effort. Keep up the good work!
Thanks. Appreciate the feedback. Will definitely keep your comments in mind for the future. 👍
Ways to spice up these terrain pieces further:
-Tents made of cheese cloth, stiffened with PVA, over a frame of toothpicks. Can be placed singly or as small tent cities.
-Lamp posts extending from the tops of the overpass, either whole or damaged. Can be made from cocktail sticks or the like.
-Traffic cones, made from thin card stock folded into small cones and glued to card stock squares as a base.
-Abandoned food vendor cart. Foam rectangle with a toothpick push handle and wheels made from beads. Topped with a tiny drink umbrella.

Excellent! Where in the UK did you source the foam?
Haha limited options in the UK at moment. Lidl's middle aisle if I remember. I came as a big set of children's floor tiles and I just cut them down. But its real name is EVA foam. You can kind it easily on amazon

You could put destroyed cars or even make it seem like it was abandoned from a war.(That’s what I would do)
1:01 i mean a highway is the simplest thing it doesn't need much improvement aside from materials so it probably wouldn't be concrete and steel but flashcrete and ship grade titanium or something
I know if engineers in the 40k millennium are still using concrete for roads then I would very disappointed. I hope they wouldn't be using plastic rubbish bags either and would have solved the homeless problem but ... as something relatable and looks cool, it is what it is haha
@@creativecuts7803 naw there's still a massive homeless problem in 40k and a food problem which is why the dead are ground up and served as food called corpse starch
Curious if you play with Henry Cavill who is also a warhammer 40k player and figurine paintef
