I’m enjoying your tutorials. Some very clever ideas. I can’t help thinking, however that I’m listening to Moss from The IT Crowd. Don’t take this the wrong way, Moss rocks!
Thank you Mel. The challenge for my 73yo brain for some time now has been to make a couple of country roads look like the ones near my old village in East Kent. Within 1/2 hour of finishing your video I had grade 1 sandpaper cut to the road shape I needed. Glue it down tomorrow when the daughter is out as she doesn't like the smells. Your painting advice has solved the second issue with colour matching to Google Maps images. Hard to do otherwise from Aus. Thanks again.
Haha, your a bloody legend mate. Made me crack up when you said how expensive it was so you pinch a few free samples while no ones watching, that's right up my alley too. ;) BTW, really enjoyed the video, some fantastic ideas I'm sure I'll use in the very near future
Thanks for this! I was about to go mad casting my cobble stone mold from hirstarts to create a 3' x 3' board for Frostgrave, this will be so much quicker, off to B & Q in the morning!
Very nicely done.I'd be tempted to put a drainage ditch on either side of the road to provide cover for troops. You could also use longer static grass to suggest the high weeds and reeds that grow in ditches if you don't want to hide figures in them.
Even better than sandpaper is used and worn cloth belts from an electric sander. It's stiff yet thin and the worn areas add dirty, naturally, random color. Of course, you need access to them, but if you can you won't be disappointed.
The paint brush method for cobblestone looks great. I would think brass rod could be shaped similarly it achieve the same effect. I am using some of your different videos for model backdrops. Thanks for the videos!
I know, I'm using my phone as I don't have a proper camera, I need to get it on a tripod as well. Fingers cross, I'll have that side sorted in the new year bud
Great work Mel! I always wondered about the sandpaper. I have noticed on this video and the last, your clump foliage is a bit regularly spaced. It looks a bit un-natural. Anyway, keep it up, can't wait to see what's next!
Another great video but I have one observation. Most cobbled streets I know have lighter cement than the cobbles themselves in the same way that a brick wall has sandy coloured cement and darker bricks. Great ideas though, I'd just paint them different. ;)
Now all you have to do is repeat that 50 or 60 times! lol This looks nice but takes time. Love the hand cobbled one, it looks so much more natural. The wallpaper is nice, but it looks very manufactured and brand new. Is there anywhere in the world they're still doing roads in cobblestone anymore? Great little video Mel, thanx.
I don't think it takes too long if you run it through in an assembly line like fashion. And you don't need to go all out on the details if you don't want to which probably speeds it up
Actually, in europe, they are, they just have machines that lay them instead of being done by hand. We have a lot of cobblestone, going back to roman times all the way through the medieval, tudor, edwardian and victorian times (plus all the others I can't remember in between) and it's typically listed which means it's protected and so if it's repaired, it has to be done in the same way, look, materials as the original piece. Listed status can apply to houses, castles, roads, even ditches mate. See, you've learned something new today :-D
The other advantage of spray adhesive over pva for sticking down the sandpaper and wallpaper is the fact that spray adhesive does not introduce moisture, so the foam-core won't warp.
Thank you , just the info I needed right place right time. . . Contemplating the patrion thing either way I'm going to donate a few dollars as this page is amazing and needs to keep going . I live in a small town near a small town in Australia just west of the blue mountains there isn't any hobby shops here ,about fifty Ks one way is my local great guys and girls and then about sixty the other way is the more city type hobby shops so I'm always trying to find the cheap and easy ways to do my building . This page will help a lot thank you
I was thinking how you would get the shape, using the base you use, I appreciate the techniques are the same, once again thanks, p.s. I am a newbie to the hobby.
Use the popsicle sticks that Mel showed in the dirt road video. But, instead of covering them with filler/spackle use tile-pattern plasticard from Evergreen. This will make the sidewalk stand proud of the road surface. Then finish the inner edges with some rectangular plastic rod. Get fancy and round the edge like a curb. Add in a storm sewer grate and a manhole cover here and there.
I am looking to start building my own terrain. But not sure how much foamboard to get. Need enough buildings, ruins, and scatter terrain for a 4 foot by 4 foot board for 28mm scale skirmish game.
TheTerrainTutor Thanks for the reply Mel. Loving your channel. I was looking at a pack of 10 A3 foamboard on ebay. So that would be more than enough? I have some templates for buildings, similar to the buildings designed for Infinity. Also have some paper terrain. And looking at other scratch built terrain. And those in videogames, Borderlands, XCOM 2, Wasteland 2 etc. Going to be using these for inspiration. I was looking at your foamboard building series. Would you suggest adding features similar to butresses, pipework etc.. To give the buildings more character? Looking forward to more videos. Have a great xmas and new years.
I would recommend the PVC foam that mel uses for bases. They also sell 3mm version that is brilliant for walls and this stuff is super durable. Normal foam board wears out easily. Go and put a little bit more into it and get some of that. Little harder to cut, but it is worth it, get the sharpest utility knife you can. foamboard melts under spraycans and can peel if you leave the paper on. PVC stuff is absolutely the best! and all those techniques still work, except you need less strengthening. You can get it in similar sizes. Better than spending all your time and then get sad if it breaks! wish i started using it is what i mean, have to slowly replace all my foamboard stuff with it.
In Mel's video on making foam core ruins, he uses one A4 sheet to make a largish ruined corner; so with 10 A3 sheets you would be able to make around 20 of those :D That would be a big of table full of terrain.
Brilliant video, just a quick question instead of the milliput can you use air drying clay or is it better off investing getting some milliput? Thanks!
Mel, love the videos. Have so much to do I don't have the time. Love the foam board ruins you did a while back, going to give them a try. Just a quick question, would the measurements you used bet ok with 1/35 scale figures/models? Btw trying to become a patron but keeps kicking me out but I will preserve.
Use a model and some graph paper to dry run in, get a door in scale and then work from there. If you're not sure, mock it up with corrugated cardboard and tape to get an idea before you start properly. Are you still having problems with patron?
Yeah, I get to the pay page and it says problem with server, try again later. I then try PayPal it it just goes blank. Does it matter that I'm trying on an iPad?
Wallpaper isn't popular in my area (or I'm assuming it isn't because I never see it at the Home Depot (B&Q for the states). But I wonder if you could use those anti-skid mats you place under large rugs to keep them from sliding all over hardwood flooring. It runs for about $20 USD for a 2 foot by 20 foot roll but I'm sure you can find it in smaller sizes for cheaper...But I suppose if you need a lot of roads you could bang out 70 or so roads from a single road
I've no idea mate, can't ever really remembering seeing them, of if I have, I hadn't taken notice from a terrain point of view. Give it a go and let me know how you get on bud
hi i am looking into making some tarmac roads for FoW Team Yankee is it possible to still paint the white lines on the sand paper road surface without it wrinkling up.
Hey Mel! Love the roads. Working on some Gaslands terrain. Looking to make elevated overpass. Just not to keen on how to keep hotwheels/matchbox on the 35° parts. Do you Have any ideas? Planning on useing basic Styrofoam for the bases and walls covered with spackle and useing corkboard fpr broken asphalt.
great tutorial mate just a quick question, if I put some strips of thick tape between the base & sand paper do you think it would leave raisesd areas to paint road markings? I have never tried roads before but I'm thinking of making a diorama base for a Gundam in a city environment
You don't really need raised areas, work out a pattern for how far apart/how long you want each mark to be, then tape those distances on a piece of string or a ruler (I recommend string because its way easier to deal with curved roads that way), you could even use a combo of the two if you like. then you can just mark out where you want your lines to go. If you've got the cash and you don't want to worry about it, Woodland Scenics has a premade flexi ruler with all the marking lengths/distances you could ever want on it too.
I'm a year late. I also do layouts for gunpla in 1/144 scale. But think about it: even in 1/100 scale, the tiniest details won't show. What does sand look like at 144th the size? I spend more time on layouts than painting the gunpla now, and one of the great things is that I will NEVER have to do static grass. Even at 1cm tall, it looks funny, because that's some tall grass on a nearly 2cm tall person.
Why dont you press in grit into the milliput when it's soft? Seems like it would give you more submerged texture and make it look like rocks coming through the dirt.
Ah, is that something you'd do in your own work then or recommend for more confident/advanced modellers? Or is it something you think is a poor practice?
extruded PVC foam is super durable, so those two are super strong. the foam one not so much. Will last a while with lots of layers of pva etc, but no way near as tough as PVC board.
Question, what kind of texture is that wallpaper? I'm trying to find some in the states, your videos have inspired me to make some of my own terrain. I'm rubbish at painting armies, but great with vehicles and terrain (anything without a face and fiddly bit, to be quite honest) anyway, cheers, looking forward to a reply! :)
That sandpaper idea is just brilliant
Old ways are always the best
It really is. Absolute genius.

Crafty crafting bud ;-)
Absolutely brilliant- I’m now off to B&Q!
That indented cobble road looks excellent. Very Warmachine.
I keep hearing warmachine, I'm gonna have to check it out
Stunning ideas. Thanks for sharing Mel
Excellent work as always Mel!
Thanks buddy
Mate you are a genius. Loving the cobbles! Definitely going to use that method in my model railway village. :)
Awesome, glad it helps mate
Great vid Mel,some cracking ideas. Love the "home made" brush cobbles, great method for making stone walls as well.
Indeed bud :-)
Great vid Mel, really like the carved cobble stones, the sandpaper road, what a great idea.
Old ways are always the best bud
Nicely done. The larger cobblestones road looked especially nice. Labor intensive, but the final result looks pretty good.
the best ways are typically the longest bud
I love it,what a good idea. I'm going to use this on my railway layout
Glad it helped mate
Thanks for this! I was about to go mad casting my cobble stone mold from hirstarts to create a 3' x 3' board for Frostgrave, this will be so much quicker, off to B & Q in the morning!
Win! and soo much lighter!
If you sand the sandpaper you get a amazing cracked asphalt effect, and it looks closer to the real thing!
Your voice is a beautiful mix of Al Murray meets Neil Buccannon!
This is a War Attack, This is a War Attack. :D
Love your work!
I've heard Neil B plenty of times but Al is a new one, love it!
Loving this mel 😊
Thank you so much! I've been waiting for a cobblestone tutorial :)
You're one of many ;-)
Very nicely done.I'd be tempted to put a drainage ditch on either side of the road to provide cover for troops. You could also use longer static grass to suggest the high weeds and reeds that grow in ditches if you don't want to hide figures in them.
I was saving that the for end of level boss! ;-)
Even better than sandpaper is used and worn cloth belts from an electric sander. It's stiff yet thin and the worn areas add dirty, naturally, random color. Of course, you need access to them, but if you can you won't be disappointed.
Can't wait to try some of these techniques. Great tutorials!
Thanks matey
Also we need terrainiac shirts that say "Get Cracked on" , "What are you doing Bose?" and "Watchamacallit"
Travis Keating and "all flocked up"
Travis Keating I would buy a watchamacallit shirt if the profits went to Mel. Mel Merch ftw!
" Get Tuft "
You're forgetting 'Engage the brain Boseicle!' :-D
"Get Flocked" ;)
love the old cobblestone look really want to make one of these now. Just need a paintbrush to sacrifice.
It is a worth sacrifice!
Your 3rd one with the Individual brush stamps is cool as ! Looks brilliant I'm gonna try that deffo cheers for.the video's
Awesome Terrain Tutor!

Cheers bud
you make it look so easy, lol. Love your videos.
It;s not hard mate, just give it a go ;-)
Brilliant. Thanx for sharing.
Damn man great work.
Hi Mel. could you please teach us a frugal way to make barrels, boxes and crates for mordheim terrain? Love your videos! thanks a bunch
Yeah, of course mate ;-)
Mel you're a legend, great videos - fantastic results from simple materials and you seem a top bloke too!
you are a terrain making god
Cheers bud :-)
Love the cobbles, they look awesome! Mel, you have got to sort out the white balance on your camera for the still shots at the end!
I know, I'm using my phone as I don't have a proper camera, I need to get it on a tripod as well. Fingers cross, I'll have that side sorted in the new year bud
Yet another great video Mel. That wallpaper looks to me more like cobblelock paving for driveways etc. DIY store here I come ;-)
Happy sampling!
Thanks for the candy bar at Adepticon!! See you at Gen Con?
not at GenCon mate but I'll be back at Adepticon!
Great work Mel! I always wondered about the sandpaper. I have noticed on this video and the last, your clump foliage is a bit regularly spaced. It looks a bit un-natural. Anyway, keep it up, can't wait to see what's next!
Yeah, I noticed that too, but only after I'd filmed it lol
fantastico..eres todo un artista creando bases para dioramas
Thanks
Another great video but I have one observation. Most cobbled streets I know have lighter cement than the cobbles themselves in the same way that a brick wall has sandy coloured cement and darker bricks. Great ideas though, I'd just paint them different. ;)
If you wanna go full bore, engrave and paint, then do the brushy filler thing, you'll get that effect mate ;-)
Bravo.
"Essentially, it's FREE!"
lmao
Very cool

Great ideas, good video. Well thank you. I wish you a lot of success.
Great work I’ll try some,I have a pre made cobble,it’s air brushed light grey,so you say use a cream colour ,cheers🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Great tutorial. I will try some of that with my layout.
I much prefer the version on the foam. As usual, when you put the time into something it always looks better.
I was thinking how you would get the shape, using the base you use, I appreciate the techniques are the same, once again thanks, p.s. I am a newbie to the hobby.
Same I m using cardboard as my base so it made it hard for me to find a tutorial I could use
Fantastic.
Great tutorial
"Looking rather spanky". Love the lingo!
Thank you for the "Let's Make" series! What channel did you say you saw the metal paintbrush tip-trick?
Keep up the fantastic work!
That would be Dread Lunn's channel - SolventAbuseUK
Awesome as always, why did I think about sandpaper? Really looking forward to the urban series. Exactly what I need!
Shouldn't be long now mate
now if you can give me a method to do a city like road with sidewalks, intersections, and turns that be great
yes.. good one
And ALL the "Let's make" serie in a City/urban apocalyptic style...only those that make sense, of course
It would be so cool... ;-))
TopgunProductions just reduce the size. hes already showed u how to do it

Any tips for T junctions, curves and Y pieces?.....that would be awesome
They're just different shapes, not different when it comes to technique

I did the math, and buying it in a 4x8 sheet (as you would insulate a basement with) was most economical, and i have foam board to burn.
So I saw in one of your frames the greenstuff world rolling pins. Have you done a review of them ?
Texturing foam in the urban playlist mate
Wouldn't the grit on the sandpaper damage the underside of models? Also, what's the best grit to use to get the desired effect?
brilliant tutorial! what type of plasticard do you use and where from? many thanks!
Brilliant video, just a quick question instead of the milliput can you use air drying clay or is it better off investing getting some milliput? Thanks!
Depends on the board, just it a test and go from there
This is all completely new to me. My son wants me to make terrain etc. Where in the UK can you buy the blue foam please and what thickness? Thanks
That looks fantastic and achievable even for a novice like me. But where do you get your grit?
Mel, love the videos. Have so much to do I don't have the time. Love the foam board ruins you did a while back, going to give them a try. Just a quick question, would the measurements you used bet ok with 1/35 scale figures/models? Btw trying to become a patron but keeps kicking me out but I will preserve.

Glue 3 or 4 in the pattern together on the end of a brush handle it'll still come out the same only bitty quicker haha

great tutorial mate
just a quick question, if I put some strips of thick tape between the base & sand paper do you think it would leave raisesd areas to paint road markings?
I have never tried roads before but I'm thinking of making a diorama base for a Gundam in a city environment
No, sand paper it too thick for it to really show through mate
TheTerrainTutor ahh ok :) thanks for the reply
You don't really need raised areas, work out a pattern for how far apart/how long you want each mark to be, then tape those distances on a piece of string or a ruler (I recommend string because its way easier to deal with curved roads that way), you could even use a combo of the two if you like. then you can just mark out where you want your lines to go.

Arthur Bugorski
I do it all the time with putty and wet filler mate, just on my own stuff and the bigger builds
Great stuff, what grit would you recommend for the sand paper?
next time you use drywall compound use just a drop of dishwashing liquid to thin it out.
Why dishwasher liquid over water?
Wondering if you ever did a video on how to do flagstone paving, say a la Roman roads.
not beyond my urban boards mate
Does the painted sandpaper scratch models? Just imaging a tank getting smaller and smaller after pushing it around 🤔
No, its not as abrasive once its painted and sealed mate
Thanks a lot, mate :)
incredible channel .. where the heck i was ... ! ...
Thanks matey
Another inspiring video. question Mel, will these stand up to busy gaming club abuse or are they a bit fragile?
extruded PVC foam is super durable, so those two are super strong. the foam one not so much. Will last a while with lots of layers of pva etc, but no way near as tough as PVC board.
Solid as hell mate!
Question, what kind of texture is that wallpaper? I'm trying to find some in the states, your videos have inspired me to make some of my own terrain. I'm rubbish at painting armies, but great with vehicles and terrain (anything without a face and fiddly bit, to be quite honest) anyway, cheers, looking forward to a reply! :)
I can't seem to find any of the embossed wallpaper in the US, or at least, where I live.
What grain size sandpaper works best.
If you look back about the 1:30 mark it was 150 grit sandpaper, I'm assuming for 28mm. for 15mm you probably want to go with 200-300 grit
Thanks for the advice, I didn't even notice it.
What Tam said!
I’m new to this , but were do I get Blue poly base from , also what colour Grey for Cobble Stones . When I get the bits , I will start .
Where do you get the blue high density 10mm foam from & what is it actually called?
