The power of cardboard, absolutely fantastic

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

I appreciate it : )

[@verityverri6506]

Absolutely love this, I've been preaching the "cardstock planks" for a while now, great to see more people into it.

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

Glad you love it, thank you! I've been using the cardstock planks since my first video a few years ago and as my own skills get better, I think my projects and videos are getting a lot better too

@@selrahcmoonandstar i just recently came across your channel and you definitely deserve more visibility!

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

I appreciate that : ) we'll get there eventually, I've got a lot more in progress for the near future

[@Fnordathoth]

These, as with everything I've seen of your work, look great.

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

You're too kind!

[@Paintedfigs]

I adore that table!

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

Thank you : ) an in-depth look is coming soon

This is great. Once again you've inspired us. I've been building terrain the last couple weeks for a Shadowdark game I hope to run soon. It's not a huge terrain game, but I feel like terrain helps spark player's imaginations.

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

I feel the sameeee! Terrain can add a lot to the story and creativity, it just feels good to play on a table with cool stuff

lol

Great video. The feet idea is pretty cool. A combination of both the feet and base will work for me.

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

I agree, both is good! The feet idea is straight from the original Mordheim box : ), and I like using the bases for other details too like the overturned table with the arrows in it

[@thomrade]

These came out looking fantastic! i have been making buildings for quite a while but something Ive lacked in smaller scatter and cover. time to pull out that bag of coffe stirsticks and my cardstock and go nutss with tables and barricades!

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

Thank you : ) they were so easy and quick to make and paint too. You could combine it with the cart build, and just wreck the cart a little bit too

[@MRaadesign]

Turned out great! I use Loctight Spray Mount to glue my cardboard/cardstock together. Have to do it outside, but I really like how fast it works. I have been doing the same as you with the recycling of the cereal boxes and other food boxes with the thin cardstock. 2 pieces glued back to back for the base material is really stronger than I thought it would be. Then once the parts are cut, glued and finished build, I use the same BMC glue (pva glue, acrylic paint, little water) as a primer. Again, surprised at how strong the parts become. I have been saving back all my food cardstock for about a year. I have a nice stock pile to work with. lol Keeps it out of the landfill and it's free too.

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

Two layers glued together is surprisingly strong! I plan to make a short video about cardstock bases for miniatures and small terrain pieces in the near future. I am always impressed at how durable pieces like these turn out in the end, and that's without even giving them a final varnish or seal

[@MRaadesign]

@@selrahcmoonandstar Exactly. I was doubtful at first. But I tested it myself. It really is impressive once finished. Can't wait for you next vid. Love the channel!

[@Andrea-op6wn]

Very nice!

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

Thank you : )

[@michaelsanty-fv8ut]

Very cool!

[@theandf]

Very cool and useful! What do you use for dirt/flocking... actual dirt? 😮

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

Yup! A few scoops of dirt from the yard that I baked in the oven for a while
