DM Scotty's TILESCAPES Modular Dungeon Tiles for D&D and Pathfinder

[@goatmealcookies7421]

Really like the stamps! Saves so much effort, without compromising look

[@mattkeelin1824]

Hello DM Scotty. I'm a brand new DM. Me & my wife are learning on how to play D&D 5E. We have decided to use mini's when we play and your videos have shown us there is a cheap we to make our own stuff. We will watch them all and learn everything we can. Thank you very much.

[@theDMsCraft]

So very welcome...have fun

[@jasminewieczorek9115]

Okay, it's official! I'm on board with Tilescapes! great work Scotty, I find endless inspiration from your work both for crafting and my campaign, thank you.

[@theDMsCraft]

Cool, Tilescapes is working great for my games.

[@jeffreykershner440]

I come back to rewatch this every few months. Always inspiring! Thanks dm Scotty!

[@theDMsCraft]

awwww thanks, I love using Tilescapes in my games.

[@chrismcknight7164]

Liked just from the intro 😊 love seeing all the different techniques youtube crafters have for making terrain, even the humble dungeon tile. Never considered stamping designs 👍

[@theDMsCraft]

I still use this technique.

[@shadowtheory7500]

Although the intro was weird, staying till the end was 100% worth it. 10/10, triple thumbs up, thank you lord Scotty.

[@connorthorud631]

What I love about this project is the versatility of the tiles - they are as efficient as original 2.5d at making interesting and unique locations, but they are far more reusable.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Connor Thorud Very true!

[@kevinfranklin3392]

I love these and use them for almost every game. Thanks DM Scotty! Your stuff is affordable and cool!

[@theDMsCraft]

So glad I could help

[@hughragsdale8488]

Scotty you never cease to amaze me. I just want to let everyone know i found a four pack of the cork tiles in the school supply area of Walmart today for 5.50 I believe.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Hugh Ragsdale Very cool, thanks for the share.

[@VioletDeliriums]

Love it so far! I made tiles with just posterboard and markers, but maybe I will try this sometime. I move into my own new house soon (instead of apartments) and I plan to make a little area for painting figures and making stuff. Thanks DM Scotty -- it is always fun to watch your shows. :)

[@theDMsCraft]

Glad you enjoy them...hope you get a nice place to craft.

[@Jmb426]

you inspire me every time I watch your videos.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Jacob Belluomini So glad to hear that.

[@Ian_KH]

Absolutely fantastic. I'm seeing a lot of materials I already use but you're doing totally new & different things with them that I'd never thought of.

[@theDMsCraft]

Awesome, glad I could spark your imagination.

[@StrongholdCrafterKev]

Another great use of cork with its texture and utilizing both sides is a bonus. Well done.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Stronghold Crafter Kev I love um.

[@terrainaholic]

Picked up a bunch of stamps for elven detailing and may use them in my frost grave build. Love the application with out walls as it REALLY frees up your gaming possibilities!!! BEAUTIFUL Stamps by the way!!!!

[@theDMsCraft]

+terrainaholic Thanks Bill, I really love the stamps.

[@andyhaley1469]

Just when I thought 2.5D was the pinnacle of awesome-ness, you break this out! You are truly an 18th level conjuration wizard! Thank you, sir.

[@theDMsCraft]

Very welcome...go forth and craft

[@MrLinguist88]

Thank you for such nice videos with so much passion for the craft! If only my D&D group would have so much passion and support, I would make those tiles immediately! :)

[@crusaderad]

Thanks so much for sharing this method. I tried it this weekend with amazing success. I used Mod Podge to coat the tiles which spread a bit easier for me. So many benefits to this style, very cool!

[@theDMsCraft]

+crusaderad Awesome!

[@rankenphile]

Absolutely brilliant, Scotty. Great work as always.

[@theDMsCraft]

+rankenphile Thanks much...I love um.

[@siptharn]

Huzah!! DMScotty does it again. Love your stuff dude! My core gaming group and I have been playing D&D since 1978. We still use 3.5 rules... Not a fan of the new editions. We have 2 new players and they love the visual we get by using your methods. Thank you for the cool how to vids.

[@theDMsCraft]

+siptharn Very welcome, happy craftin' and gamin'

[@karandras5]

Made these and love the outcome. Thanks DM Scotty. You’re an inspiration!

[@theDMsCraft]

So glad to hear that!....Have fun!

[@brandstaff2]

I was able to answer my own question! I watched your D&D Next video on floor creation. And saw how you did the tile stamp there :-)

[@toddwells2383]

The other floor video of Scotty's that I could find didn't seem to show cobblestone - can you point me to where you found it?

[@MarsKng]

Well, I know what I'll be working on over the Winter! (y)

[@MrsSinette]

thumbs up for teaching me something cool

[@theDMsCraft]

You made my day...always glad to help people in the hobby I love.

[@tinysandwich4686]

Cork is also great for basing models and making damaged roads

[@valasafantastic1055]

Useful, a friend just gave me some old cork tiles they never used!

[@theDMsCraft]

Awesome, have fun!

I'm loving these Scotty! Looking forward to seeing how you did the outdoor tiles from the first vid.

[@theDMsCraft]

+AJ Pickett (The Mighty Gluestick) Glad you like them AJ

[@dndbasement2370]

i'm digging this. im not a huge fan of tiles. but i seriously need something for the floors in my 2.5D next style. so yeah im probably gonna do this. ditch that, im doing this ! awsome idea !

[@theDMsCraft]

+DnD Basement Awesome, they are worth the effort.

[@dndbasement2370]

i had 4 mats laying around. use them all and i think it will be enough. thats... 8 6x6 inches (2 sheets) (the rest forms the other 2 sheets) 4 2x4 4 2x2 8 3x3 6 4x4 4 3x6 this should be enough for me to handle anything. wood on one side and dungeon on the other. wonder how you will do cave tiles.

[@TheHelium999]

+DnD Basement i wonder as well with the cave tiles... just iregular cuts doesn´t "cut it" ;)

[@Mrchiken373]

Really glad i watched this video before cutting 500-600 1x1 squares of foam for my tiles. Gonna save me a bunch of time

[@theDMsCraft]

I hear that...I love the thinner tiles too =)

[@loftkilla4684]

this is the best system ive seen

[@theDMsCraft]

Still use it myself.

[@ghosturiel]

Some advice for those cork tiles is to hit up AC Moore or Michael's. They have 50-55% off coupons on their receipts if you come back the next week. i usually end up paying 3 to 4 dollars for a pack.

[@theDMsCraft]

Great tip!

[@chrisbobb4919]

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing, I've recently gotten back into playing, and this is going to help greatly!

[@theDMsCraft]

Cool, I love using these.

[@MiserySage]

+Seth Weber I was getting frustrated not being able to see the goings on (from my chair) lol

[@theDMsCraft]

+Seth Weber Coincidence?...I think not...wink

[@DerMartexus]

There has been a lot of development in your 2.5d stuff within the last half year. I like that. ;)

[@theDMsCraft]

+DerMartexus Sure has =)

[@Kragar01]

I found that cutting the tiles up dry with a stanley knife worked a lot better. Had to run the blade across about 3 times to cut through but the end result was zero crumbling.

[@theDMsCraft]

Awesome

[@donwilliams1193]

I have been watching your videos of late. Awesome videos

[@theDMsCraft]

So glad you enjoy them

[@jeffhowarth31]

any tips for getting the paper off the foam core stamp without squishing the core inside?

[@theDMsCraft]

+Jeff Howarth If you can get it at the dollar tree it just peels right off. If you can't, soak the paper or use a heat gun.

[@thebestgrotesque4128]

can you make a tutorial on the grassy floor paint on the black foam board? I know it's simple but it would be cool for a quick tip video.

[@theDMsCraft]

+The Best Grotesque Will do

[@azncowman]

TheDMsCraft Wondering if I could have a link to that video if there is one? Couldn't find it unfortunately

[@XAncientRelicX]

Very cool.

[@theDMsCraft]

+XAncientRelicX Thanks, I really enjoy them.

[@davidmcbridethegolfinggame3359]

I think I only have shiny acrylic black paint for my base coat will that be ok to base coat with?

[@theDMsCraft]

I would note use gloss...use flat

[@trailspark1002]

hey everybody. quick tip.Instead of dampening the cork, get yourself a rotary cutter and a metal ruler, or a metal straight edge. I tried the dampening method, and still came up with too rough of an edge for my taste. With the rotary cutter, you don't need to dampen the cork at all. and the cut edge is SUPER smooth. Be VERY careful with the rotary cutter, and don't let it slip off your straight edge because that rotary cutter is SUPER sharp. Also, have some kind of cutting mat below it.

[@theDMsCraft]

Great idea

[@jenniferw8963]

I'm thinking about using the 12x12 cork for outdoor wargaming terrain. Or would you recommend something else, like a larger mat for the outdoor ground?

[@theDMsCraft]

+Jennifer Gwinn That could work just fine. I usually just spread a green cloth on the table for my outdoor base. Tiles could work though if you want specific outdoor terrain.

[@mikeet207]

Scotty did you ever do a mine/cave tile stamp for the tilescapes?

[@theDMsCraft]

I have not working on the vid.

[@pasion400]

sos un genio, con mucha imaginacion.

[@WhiteZombie7689]

Truly, the Bob Ross of roleplaying games.

[@theDMsCraft]

Very kind, thank you =)

[@matrix626]

Could you use foam sheeting glued to cardboard instead of cork?

[@theDMsCraft]

+Frank B You could but they would end up much thicker and it would throw the whole system off.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Frank B Plus if you do them double sided they would be way too thick.

[@matrix626]

nuts.

[@spencerdavis5775]

What about caves; how would you set them up? Would you just cut the cork irregularly?

[@theDMsCraft]

+Crafters Central All will be revealed.

[@spencerdavis5775]

Ok, thanks Scotty!

[@TheHelium999]

+theDMsCraft so what about the caves? its nearly half a year later ;)

[@theDMsCraft]

I guess it is...I will have to release some.

[@johnmoody8472]

Did you paint the cork tiles? They were black when you stamped them. What thickness of cork sheets?

[@theDMsCraft]

+John Moody I spray painted them flat black after they were dry from the glue. the sheets I use are about a quarter of an inch thick.

[@jesternario]

I had problems with that damn stamp before and I still have issues with it. The paint just all smushes together and I don’t get any separation.

[@gregkirby1549]

Hey Scotty I love this idea, but what about the walls like on yer cardboard tiles?

[@theDMsCraft]

+Greg Kirby No walls on these tiles. I just use key pieces on the edge.

[@johnmoody8472]

Thanks you sir

[@theDMsCraft]

+John Moody My pleasure.

[@hk8607]

liking this series!

[@theDMsCraft]

+Broach Will Then stay tuned...lots more on the way.

[@ScanManP13]

I plan on using the standard one inch grid that you showed to make some of my own tiles. What a great balance of playability, cost effective and looking great. I also really like some of the other looks you have done like the wooden planks. But there is no grid. Do you have any advice on playability without a built in grid tool? I might just draw on some very thing lines with paint or a marker.

[@theDMsCraft]

You could do that or divide the plank stamp into 1" squares

[@krgood9008]

What do you recommend for pairing front and back of tiles? Like wooden planks with stone pavers on the other side? Cobblestone with sandstone on the opposite side? Which dimensions do you recommend in which amounts of each? 4 (6x6)?

[@theDMsCraft]

+KRGOOD Just make as many as you think you will need.

[@nesnahprotsdam]

Dear god man, you have some legendary patience when crafting. Good job on these! P.S. You said "double duty" hehe...

[@theDMsCraft]

+nesnahprotsdam Sure do and sure did...LOL

[@brandstaff2]

hi Scotty! Just getting into your series on crafting and loving what I'm seeing. quick question about the floor tiles... How do you achieve the cobblestone look for your paint stamp? you are quite clear about stone and wood but I don't see anything about the rounded cobblestone.

[@DMRaptorJesus]

Gonna rewatch this jem 🤓

[@RobMcCauslandArt]

Great video! I really really like your stamps! I never thought of making anything like that. I would suggest one thing you might try. I paint a layer of Gesso over my paper mache and it turns them ROCK HARD! It really really does make them a whole lot stronger. I'm not sure why this exactly happens, but it's a great way to finish off some pieces to make them last. I'm not sure how Gesso would work on corkboard compared to the PVA glue mixture you use. The Gesso is a bit thicker than paint so it may cause less texture effects? Maybe it's something worth testing out??? True both maybe? PVA on the front and Gesso on the back?? BTW if you haven't heard of Gesso(not insulting your intelligence) Artists use it to prime their canvas and it's a great go to if you need some stability. Great vids! Keep them coming!

[@theDMsCraft]

Neat idea but as you say my fear would be covering up the great texture.

[@chrispetersen4863]

I noticed in some of the later Tilescapes you have used the 5 & 6mm "foamie" mats. Do you find the "Foamie" to take paint and be as durable as the cork tiles? I ask because it seems that for the same amount of space the "foamie" seems a bit more cost effective...

[@theDMsCraft]

Foamie is more cost effective but I really like the cork texture. Foam mats take paint well and are better with finer details.

[@chrispetersen4863]

Awesome! Just the info I was looking for!Thanks!

[@theDMsCraft]

Foamie is much more cost effective. It says fairly stiff and takes paint well. I just like the texture the cork provides.

[@twasheck]

Does anyone know where there might be some comparable foam pieces to use? Intense internet sleuthing has yielded minimal results.

[@theDMsCraft]

These work great: amzn.to/2O2HN5K

[@cryptking6283]

Gah I missed this initially! Question answered. Off to Ikea.

[@Darsh82074]

Help please. i cant get the cork to dry completely flat. i let them dry to the touch on both sides before sandwiching them under another cutting bord but they wont dry and if i take them out they warp. what am i doing wrong?

[@theDMsCraft]

+David Marsh Give them several days to dry. placing a fan near them helps the drying process. make sure to keep the weights on or they will warp.

[@morguard131]

hello DM Scotty! i love your video! i was wondering, do you show somewhere how you did those statue and gargoyles and what you use to make them? keep up the good work!

[@theDMsCraft]

Some are cast and some are bought.

[@morguard131]

thanks! when you say cast, you cast them yourself? or someone does it for you?

[@theDMsCraft]

They were gifts to me.

[@thebestgrotesque4128]

My stone tiles are coming out nice, however my wood tiles look awful! I can't get the paint to look good on these cork mats for a nice tavern floor.

[@theDMsCraft]

+The Best Grotesque Try applying more paint to the stamp. Fill in any overlaps with black paint.

[@thebestgrotesque4128]

My problem was I was using shades of brown that were too dark, I figured it out and fixed it, now my wood floors are looking great!

[@theDMsCraft]

so glad to hear that!

[@danic3372]

I'd also like to know which store you picked up those cork mats, I can't find them anywhere.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Dani Valentine I have seen them at all major crafts stores...may be sold under another brand. If you still can find them locally you can easily find the 12'X12' cork tiles at online retailers.

[@danny8231]

Quick question, I love this idea and I wanna get started on them. What thickness would you recommend for the tiles? (In cm?) Thanks!

[@theDMsCraft]

+Darth Station The package really only says 12"X12" but when I measure the thickness it is very close to half a centimeter.

[@WilfredThePig]

what did you use for the stamp. ive tried foam board and foam mats but they don't work. ive gone every where trying to find this "foam core" you speak of. plz help Scotty!

[@theDMsCraft]

Are you in the U.S.?

[@WilfredThePig]

I am.

[@theDMsCraft]

I get my foam board at Dollar Tree...1 buck a sheet.

[@cjspartacus]

Hi, Scotty. I am really enjoying your videos and have already made a plethora of cardboard 2.5D tiles. I used your papier mache idea for the walls as opposed to cardboard on the cavern tiles and they look great! I decided to try the Tilescapes (seeing as here in Scotland I can get 16 12" cork boards for about $25) but I have had a problem getting the cork to stiffen. I've wet the tiles and then coated them in PVA glue but after 2 days they're still wobbling almost as much as they were when I cut them up. Do you have any advice for me?

[@theDMsCraft]

+cjspartacus Put a fan in front of them that should help...heat and air flow.

[@cjspartacus]

Thanks. I'll leave them for a few more days and see how it goes!

[@TheHelium999]

+cjspartacus i have the same problem here in germany. Have your cork tiles hardened up?

[@cjspartacus]

+TheHelium999 Yes I got it going eventually. I found the method that worked for me was to water down the glue instead of wetting the cork. Then I used a fan heater to blow them dry for about an hour and then reapplied more watered down glue. Once the tiles were dry (again) they were a little warped so I compressed them under a few of my heavier role-playing books for about 3-4 days. Then I sprayed and printed them like in Scotty's tutorial and then coated them in clear wood varnish. I hope that helps.

[@spencerdavis5775]

How would you set up a regular dungeon? Because there are no windows in dungeons and i cant really think of too much else that would be on the walls other than doors.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Crafters Central I would put in some archways in hallways and some single walls with interesting features.

[@spencerdavis5775]

Ok

[@theDMsCraft]

The system is really about just highlighting areas of flavor and giving the feel of 3D without the hassle true 3D brings to the table.

[@toddwells2383]

The stamps for the wood plank and cobblestones weren't shown and I'm wondering what those were like. The wood planks in particular seemed to have larger gaps between them, bigger gaps than the cutting tools thickness. Did you do something else to the stamp to achieve that? I love how detailed your instructions are but I can't quite fill this little gap with my imagination.

[@theDMsCraft]

Are you in my facebook group?

[@toddwells2383]

Yessir!

[@theDMsCraft]

Will it help if I post a pics of the stamp?

[@toddwells2383]

That's be great!

[@terrybeal2252]

I'm having trouble finding the foam core for the stamp? What's it called and where can I find it?

What is the thickness of these tiles. was thinking of going to Home Depot and getting a 2'x4' sheet of corkboard for $12.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Rule69 They are like 1/2CM thick.

[@Roden4Sooners]

Scotty, I did not see this answered anywhere, but maybe you can help me. The tiles you show are Adhesive backed. Do you just peel that off and let it dry out? Or do you have to wash that off somehow before you glue and paint that side? I found that exact pack at Hobby Lobby, still 9.99. Thickness says 3/16", so that is perfect for the doors I already made using your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@theDMsCraft]

+Roden4Sooners They are not adhesive or foam board backed.

[@jimeronimo]

Hey Scotty. How are you keeping the excess paint getting down in the grooves and seams when you slather on the paint over your stamps?

[@theDMsCraft]

If too much gets in the seams pull some out with your brush...Be sure to make the seams deep.

[@Directo13]

Hi DM Scotty. I had a problem whit my cork. I did a 6 x 6 size and damped it, glue it and put some weight on it, but, it keeps getting warped. I remoist them, reglue them but still they warped. I tried this next. I just used glue with a damp brush and it did the job. I liked how i found my solution, but, I would like to know why the first ones didn't work. I you know I would like an answer and if you not that's okay.

[@theDMsCraft]

Need to make sure it is thoroughly dry before removing the weights...a fan can help.

[@christhompson7662]

I've seen you use the stamp in other videos but I can't find where you say what it's actually made from. Some kind of sticky back foam...

Hi, New subscriber question.....how thick are those cork tiles?

[@theDMsCraft]

hi welcome...5mm wide

[@davidf7841]

My daughter (5) and I just started working on these together today! Do you ever use any kind of varnish or sealer after the painting is all done? I didn't hear you mention that, but maybe I just missed it.

[@theDMsCraft]

I do not...I have never had any paint rub off as the cork absorbs craft paint very well.

[@davidf7841]

Awesome, thanks! My daughter and I just prepped a variety of different tiles this weekend. Stamping tomorrow probably.

[@mrabomination]

out of curiosity how many of each style (wood, stone, sandstone, ect.) would you recommend making?

[@theDMsCraft]

+mr abomination It really depends what you need. You could start with basic wood and stone and then branch out from there. I like to make some 3X3, 6X6, 6X3 and 2X6.

[@VicSicily]

This was epic.

[@pedrogonzaga9786]

Hey Scotty, what's the height of these cork tiles? (in millimeters would be better haha) Found some to buy, but they sell in sheets (too thin, bending problems) or lots of different heights for the tiles themselves... Don't wanna buy an expensive one that is too thick if I can buy a thiner and cheaper one that also makes the magic happens.

[@theDMsCraft]

It is 5mm

[@pedrogonzaga9786]

Thanks!

[@theDMsCraft]

happy to help...have fun

[@pedrogonzaga9786]

theDMsCraft I wasnt going to ask more, but since you replied again... haha do you think 3 or 4mm boards would be to thin? I'm asking cause 5mm is almost double the price of 3mm (1mm tile is R$5, 2mm R$10, 3mm R$15 and so on...)

[@theDMsCraft]

4 should work...you go much thinner and they will flex.

[@CommanderNemo1]

Scotty, as always, you rule. How do you get such perfect cuts on the cork? I am havin a lot of trouble not getting perfectly symmetrical 6x6's

[@theDMsCraft]

A good option is to take a metal straight edge and a sharp box cutter and carefully score several times along the edge of the ruler...perfectly straight cuts.

[@nicksuitup7822]

You are a genius!!!!

[@theDMsCraft]

Thanks =)

[@Peppershaker]

how many of what sizes do you use

[@theDMsCraft]

+millionth hobbit It really depends what you need. I use a lot of 6X6 but you can make many different sizes easily.

[@WilfredThePig]

is there like any different name for it ?

[@alzathoth]

het scotty. how about tiles for outdoor regions like grasslands, swamps, etc?

[@theDMsCraft]

+alzathoth I just lay down a cloth or mat and scatter some terrain around the table.

[@terrybeal2252]

You used spray paint to paint it black?

[@theDMsCraft]

I did because it gets the tile less "wet" when painting. The wetter they get the chance of curling up increases.

[@terrybeal2252]

[@thewiseguywithaj4953]

when u say "dollar store foam core" is that like poster board?

[@theDMsCraft]

It is foam sandwiched between to pieces of paper.

[@JaredHayter]

Scotty, how did you settle on 6-inch tiles for your basic unit? Is it purely because of the initial 12-inch tile size or is there some other reason? The reason I ask is that I've been making double-sided 2D tiles in cardboard and I've gone with 4- and 8-inch squares, so I'm curious as to what makes 6 inches a preferable denomination. I've noticed that HirstArts builder tend to make 3x3 tiles as their basic subunit while Dwarven Forge uses 2x2 as its basic unit. I understand that when you hand-make everything you don't want to have to make hundreds of individual pieces so it becomes preferable to size up a bit. That's why I decided to double the Dwarven Forge dimensions and start with 4x4 as my smallest piece and then double that to make larger 8x8 pieces. Thanks for your input.

[@theDMsCraft]

+Jared Hayter The Tilescape system uses building fronts and I figured the smallest would be 6X6 to fot a 6" building front.

[@JaredHayter]

Okay, that makes sense since this seems so far to have a cityscape focus. Smaller buildings could be grouped together as one facade. I have to say the stuff looks great in the first two videos and I love your idea doing facades, which seems to build off those vertical cave entrances you showed in a much earlier video. I'm looking forward to seeing your video for the huge columns you showed off in these vids.

[@theDMsCraft]

All in the works as we speak.

[@CyberDave404]

Hi Scotty, awesome ideas as always. I have a question. Can I use foam sheet to make the stamp instead of foam board? Thanks!

[@theDMsCraft]

Yes you can actually ( I have done it) but I would cut out the design instead of etching into it so you get a nice sharp pattern. You can even glue it to cardboard.

[@CyberDave404]

TheDMsCraft Got it! Thanks so much. Your channel is brilliant.

[@theDMsCraft]

Glad you enjoy it.

[@animalmichaellane6563]

I really love this tile system and I'm just beginning to craft these myself. One question: is there any 'trick' to spray painting the very thin sides of the tiles? It seems to me that's going to be kind of difficult. Thanks again for sharing this, it's really great.

[@theDMsCraft]

Glad you like the idea. I have been using mine for years. You are right that it can be hard to spray the sides. Just finish then off with craft acrylic black paint if you need to.

Hey there, Scotty! lovin' the tilescapes, the stuff you've made here is incredible! I've decided to give it a try, and am having some trouble with the curing process of the cork tiles. I've been trying to mass produce the tiles since I'm trying to meet a deadline of sorts. I have a bunch of them drying, but they're taking longer than I'd like to dry completely. What's your opinion on skipping the curing process? Do you think that raw cork tiles would work fine for your tilescapes? I understand that they'd be a bit more fragile and prone to crumble, I'd just like to see what you think about the idea of just using raw cork.

+Swamesame Sure you could use the raw cork. A fan can really help the drying process.

+theDMsCraft Thanks, I'll try a fan! Appreciate it!

Hey Scotty, I've been using the cardboard 2.5d and that's been working great and I am thinking of moving to tilescapes. however I'm thinking of using the foam boards as you have used in your later videos as it's a lot cheaper than Cork, the problem being though that they only seem to come 1cm thick, do you think that will cause any issues with the tile fronts? as yours are only raised 5mm I beleive.

That will work...just compensate for the difference...have fun
