CHANGE how you think about Modular Water + Coasts

[@raecheldoes]

I wanted to pin a couple of updates here thanks to some helpful comments! - Multiple people pointed me toward cut-resistant gloves for just this sort of carving safety. I will likely pick up a pair myself! - More alternatives to glass panes: --- Acrylic sheets at various sizes on Amazon --- Plexiglass cut to size from your local hardware store --- Acetate sheets (like for overhead projectors) --- Large plastic sheet sourced from a poster frame One thing I didn't mention in the video is that I found having a transparent panel with some thickness increased the visual quality of the wave texture against the coloured paper underneath. Having some distance allows for shadows and a better reflection and water effect overall. And don't forget to store these with parchment or wax paper in between!

Did you mean to say "pun" a couple of updates here?

[@alicemursteinlesbefaen666]

you're very quickly becoming one of my favourite crafting channels, i've been a huge rp archive fan for a while and its cool to see more similar modular terrain. also the clear water with different tinted water textures underneath is genius, i will definitely try that out some time

[@raecheldoes]

Your comment in tandem with your picture is on another level. 😂

Came for the crafting, stayed for the puns!

[@raecheldoes]

Thank you for the feedback and tip about the cut-resistant gloves. I've included it in a pinned comment now so others can benefit from your wisdom :) And also I didn't realize how cheap acrylic panels can be! This may be the path I take in the future as well...

[@jsmxwll]

You can use some wet/dry sandpaper around 220-320 grit down the sides of the glass. Use it wet so you don't end up with glass dust in the air. It'll make it less likely to cut you, remove some of the flaws that tend to act as break points, and make the cleanup with a razor a bit easier.

[@raecheldoes]

Thank you for the additional tips!

For cutting towards myself, I have a fisherman’s deboning glove for my off hand so I can do pretty much whatever I want and won’t cut myself. Highly recommend

Yes! I have put this suggestion in a pinned comment now so hopefully others can also benefit.

[@dominicpinchott7432]

If cutting in your hand like that, you could wear a small pair of cut gloves. Kitchen staff use them a lot. They're probably cheaper than stitched. Thanks for the video. I love this style of water! So much easier than resin!

oh man finding this video by accident was just what i needed. I've been thinking about building a modular river delta terrain board and this is actually a great idea for how I should do it

[@theBoonarmies]

@5:00 cut resistant gloves are fairly cost effective, and absolutely worth looking in to if you're doing this sort of carving regularly. THEY ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROPER CAUTION, but they're a decent piece of preventative safety on top of being sensible and careful. Making sure your knife is properly sharp means you're using less force to make cuts as well, so stop and strop or hone your blade every dozen or so decent sized cuts, or when your blade starts to slow down when carving.

[@raecheldoes]

Thank you for the additional tips!

With RP archive being very inactive the past 1+ years, your channel has become my new fav. Amazing quality of video and instructions in such a short post. And I have been debating on how to do water tiles for the past 3 years without coming to a method that I wanted to "dive" into head first, but now seeing yours, I for sure will just do this with large acrylic sheets.

Fantastic design! I may adapt it into a tropical beach theme.

[@CATASTEROID934]

This video reminded me of a time I hold deep nostalgia for, playing with the Total Annihilation: Kingdoms map editor as a young lad having my first experiences with map making and modding the games I played, fitting all the neat tiles together and assembling tiny worlds just for myself to experience. The water and islet tiles were some of my favourites and one of the maps I spent the most time decorating was a castle flanked on three sides with a large horseshoe-shaped lake, with a small hamlet huddled among expansive fields of pumpkins and wheat, I must've spent a couple of hours just doing set dressing on a tiny sheltered lagoon among the fields surrounded by a dense cloak of pine trees with a little clearing where a couple of vagrants were camped. It probably wasn't a very good map to actually play but it didn't need to be, I probably spent more time in the map editor than I did playing the game.

[@CreativeWoff]

instant subscribe just for your video presentation skills alone.

[@Rayuaz]

That's so cool! That's such a cool solution for rivers! And you could use it to add elevation to the terrain too, by placing other tiles underneath, instead of the water. I just think I would definetely acrylic intead of glass for this

[@raecheldoes]

Thank you very much!! I am very much looking forward to experimenting what other textures underneath so we'll see where it goes! Also, yes I agree. I have since looked into acrylic panels online and they're much more affordable than I thought, so that may be the way to go in the future 🤔

[@homogoose9769]

i would love to get a tour of your table! it looks so nice :)

[@samtaylor5699]

Next level - get a cheap LCD TV and build it into a table. Then place the water-glass panes on top. You can display moving water/ lava underneath that would also emit light creating a dynamic game table

[@mrlegobrick]

Awesome, loving your videos - planning on applying it to wargaming as well as DnD - the water effect is incredible - I guess ideally all your tiles need to sit on a panel/support once you have created the water, otherwise they will just water-fall off?

[@kimbach1824]

Thanks for the inspiration. I wanted to a static Warhammer board. But I thought static would be boring and also said of pouring alot of resin. With this idea can still make make water at the lowest level in my jungle / industrial board. Thanks alot :)

[@Aewynn98]

Going to give the water tiles a shot here soon, also saw another video using gloss mod-podge for similar results.. I'm also going to experiment with some divets in the tiles to add small water puddles with Still Water for some added variance.. I have my first batch of wilderness tiles drying from the initial mod-podge soil mix.. super excited to start laying in some static grass etc..

[@raecheldoes]

Yes gloss mod podge can also give a good water finish too! I just used gel medium because it holds its shape more firmly than gloss mod podge, but you can definitely get some good ripple textures with the latter. Let me know how the still water goes! I've been experimenting with divets as well--a lighter has been very helpful for this. I'm happy that you're trying out the wilderness tiles!!

[@Aewynn98]

@@raecheldoes It's all thanks to your vids really getting me interested in it.. I'm experimenting with like water puddles with the still water, so far it looks alright.. I'll be doing a 6x6 tile with a larger indentation for like a "muddier" area if that makes sense? with some magnets underneath for like a ring of columns/faerie circle.. something along those lines where i can add a small collection of scatter to make a small scale combat/rp encounter.

[@WilSisney]

Holy hand-grenades @raecheldoes this is such a fantastic video! The water texture is awesome, and you've explained the cliff/corner/curves/crawls so clearly here. I've been using this approach with corner and curve pieces for ages, but seeing how well cliffs and crawls work is going to have be magnetizing all my old tiles just to make it all work. PLEASE KEEP IT UP, you're forging gold with each of these videos!

[@WilSisney]

Also that freaking flocking strategy is brilliant! There's probably a better term for making adjoining tiles connect cleanly in a visual way, but I just call it tessellation. Getting physical tessellation is easy - you just have to make your foam join. Getting visual tessellation is SO hard and the flocking approach you use is blowing my mind right now.

[@raecheldoes]

Ahh! Thank you for such high praise!! I'm happy that my instructions came across clearly. If you like, rolled up masking tape also works well in adhering the tiles together too! It was easy for me to do magnets since I started with them, but I imagine if you've got a whole system it might be a beast to convert everything! Either way thank you again for your support and encouragement! My perfectionist tendencies definitely appreciate the specific compliments haha.

[@Carty239]

Hi! Also an RP Archive fanboy here! I've been thinking down a similar vein, but using acetate sheets/OHP transparencies rather than glass as they are cheaper and less breakable. I've also done a light dry brush of white on wave textures like this for a little foam, but perhaps that's more of a sea than a river texture.

[@raecheldoes]

Yes! After doing more research, acrylic and plexi can be decently affordable. I do find that the thicker the material, the more depth it gives the water. I would definitely like to experiment with doing the light dry brushing in the future too.

[@bradywomack9751]

I really like your approach to water. I hate the degassing smells and expense of resin water that you have to finish off this way any way. Enjoying your channel.

Yes I find resin pretty intimidating to work with on such large scales, but you're right, the smell is pretty heavy too. Glad to offer an alternative!

Thank you very much for the generous compliments and supporting the channel! I agree the glass is quite delicate, even for at-home use.

Huzzah! I *sea* you have *aqua* -ainted yourself with the commenting format here. (Aka nice one!)

[@AlexAlex-ws2cq]

This is very cool! A few months ago I found online wargame magazines from the early 80s and they had similar layout to this (but not a creative design like yours!). They put a blue piece of cloth underneath the terrain and that represented water. Super cheap, but I guess for the 80s, where wargames were just getting hyped up, it had to do! With that being said, I have a quick question: putting terrain on a cloth, will flush it together with no "space" in between the cloth and the terrain. But when creating these waves, since they height, did you find that the terrain is somewhat "floating" in the air since its being placed on waves that have height? - I hope I explained it well lol.

[@raecheldoes]

You know, there are still terrain-builders who will use long-fibre fabrics or rugs to be grass, so I'm not surprised it used to be used for water! But yes, with the gel-medium waves, there is a minor amount of space between the land on top and the water below. But honestly, it's so minor that from the side, you barely notice it. You can see a good example of the gap at 2:21. (And yes! I understood your explanation!)

[@DungeonMasterJohnny]

How do you hangle storage of the grass pieces

[@raecheldoes]

I think I will do a post about this because I've had a number of people ask, but basically I have a little metal shelf that I got off of Amazon where I can store them at adjustable heights and even vertically for the awkward shaped pieces.
