That basing solution is absolutely genius

[@WulvenKraft]

even if I do say so myself! 🤣. That's my 'good ideas for year' quota full now though 🤣

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

That looks amazing. I completely agree with you about bases on terrain. I have avoided using them on my stuff. I don't want to cover my fancy battle mat. This was a great tutorial. Thanks for sharing!!

[@WulvenKraft]

Thank you! Lovin' your name!

[@MiniBasin]

This is awesome! I especially love your glued down rubble as the base. I definately want to try this to build out a game table for myself!

[@deepseaminingsyndicate]

The template idea is absolutely mint! I would love to see your take on zone mortalis tiles, columns walls, stairs, etc using the same concept!!

[@WulvenKraft]

Those ideas are being worked on as I type! Zone Mortalis is a very important part of my biggest project to date. If you like the templates watch this space! I have come up with a template template system that makes it even easier to build exactly what you want & easily repeatable.

The stones and parchment paper was an amazing idea, definitely stealing that one!!

Steal away my friend!

Subbed as I'm planning to replicate the Coventry Cathedral ruins for my table... approximately at least!

[@WulvenKraft]

Oh nice! That's something I want to do long term but St. Giles' in Edinburgh. A lot of the work I'm doing is geared to producing huge structured later down the line.

[@jhall1980]

Incredible build. Would love to see more stuff like this.

[@WulvenKraft]

Oh there's more coming!

[@slybootsstan1809]

This looks better than the GW Sanctum Administratus kit. Well played, sir, well played.

[@WulvenKraft]

Very kind of you to say!

[@diyfireking]

How awesome, such a great work 👍👍

[@WulvenKraft]

Cheers Fireking

[@hmgirlpopuri5819]

Looks great! And that compromise between base/no base/set dressing came out fantastic.

[@WulvenKraft]

Cheers! Aye, I'm pleased with how it turned out, investing a little extra time in doing now is going to make playing so much less of a chore 🤣

[@flashingbadgerpainting]

Great piece! Saving this guide in my hobby favourites so I can refer back to it for some terrain making 😎

Cheers Monsieur Badger!

Great video, really nice build! Ps. you should mayby turn off the autofocus on the close up camera at least it when drybrushing!

[@WulvenKraft]

Aye, I'm not confident enough in my camera knowledge to turn it off just yet but I am getting there.

[@emanuelcamuglia5984]

i could use one of these for my temple of elemental evil campaign

Well you now know how to make one & there's a link in the description for the templates I used 🤘

[@sergeylisovsky1622]

Amazing! How did you craft those window gratings/grids or whatever it is called?

[@WulvenKraft]

The windows were re-worked STL files I found for free on the internet.

[@sakesmokes7784]

@@WulvenKraft Would you mind sharing those edited STL files?? It'd be awesome!

[@WulvenKraft]

@@sakesmokes7784 I can't share someone else's work without permission I'm afraid but I can tell you I used Meshmixer to edit them. It's free software, easy to use & all I did was pick a side I liked, duplicated the file, flipped the duplicate & stuck both files together. It came out thick but I just used the slicer software to fix that issue.

[@willogsdon7092]

These look like the same templates from your ruined city gaming board video from a while back. I still have mine, are there any new templates in this or will I be good using the ones from the last time? Looks great, can't wait to see what's next! P.S. if you ever get the urge to turn that fractal battlemap concept into infinitely modular trench game boards, I'll be there waiting for you 😂 l. You inspired my first ever diy terrain, thanks for opening me up to this side of the hobby. Cheers, mate!

[@WulvenKraft]

They are the very same templates with very minor modifications to suit this project. That's why I printed the paper version. You could very easily do the design work just using the paper templates to see where you would want to make adjustments. That last paragraph has made my day!

[@gkmodels]

Here is some inspiration. Thx so much mate... btw I guess you meant 5mm xps foam and not 50mm :D

[@WulvenKraft]

Cheers & aye, 5mm 🤣

[@alejandrosalvadorcastilloh1163]

Jejeje me agrada tu sentido del humor

[@WulvenKraft]

Gracias

[@mattp4293]

Where did you get the red bits for the windows?

[@WulvenKraft]

They were modified STL files & are completely unnecessary.

[@nunyabusiness7001]

Just got to the "to base or not to base" 11min ish: what i do instead of buying a battle mat (or making the board a battle mat) is buy pre cut boards from bunnings (or *add name big box store here* as you yanks call em haha) in a dividable number say board is 6x6 i buy them in whatever they have 3x2 or 2 x 6 (always go 2x "something" 1 foot sucks buttttttt you can have 1x1s and 2x2s etc to mix in for more randomisation) and make up terrain "jigsaw pieces" and build my entire city on each board and base those boards (dont forget to make some that have no buildings, flat lands and random features that arent buildings). Then at the start of the game you each alternate, pick a spot and 3 piece of terrain roll dice 1/2, 3/4 and 5/6 and then pick that piece of terrain the number allocated and place it down. You can obviously still use each piece as scatter terrain which is handy when you dont have enough for covering a board

[@nunyabusiness7001]

O also make sure you mostly build to the centre with at least an inch or two from the edge so you have some small to large thoroughfares between if two buildings are placed next to each other... though i do have some pieces that but up building to building making longer "streets" with no chance of cover unless you run further which works out well too for "realism"

[@WulvenKraft]

I do something similar but I'm restricted by size. I use Artists Wooden Canvas to build my boards. I use A1 & design them in such a way that I use them in multiple ways. I'd love to use 2x2ft but they are very difficult to buy here & I don't have the space to build them myself. There's a video from a year ago.

[@nunyabusiness7001]

O yeah mate I've binge watched ya shit haha great vids xoxo hahhahha Yeah I usually use a 8/10mm MDF for mine obviously you're like straya I'm guessing we have our tabletops chipboard usually, 1800x2400 so I get the mdf in 200x200 or 200x600 etc etc and place those on top of the tabletop. But I'm lucky enough to have a shed dedicated to nerd sh*t hahaha

[@WulvenKraft]

@@nunyabusiness7001 I'm no Bogan or a Yank 🤣 I looked at MDF for my boards but canvas boards can be just as cheap, ready made & built for hanging on a wall, easy storage.

[@nunyabusiness7001]

I'm definitely a bogan hahahahahaha But yeah use what ya use I got nothing against the canvas boards just cheaper for me to get mdf and build my terrain on top of that hahaha
