How I Make Frostgrave Ruins Terrain

This is how I made all my Frostgrave ruined buildings, and pretty much anything brick based. This video is kinda my love letter to Miscast for introducing me to EVA foam as a terrain building material.

Man, bloody brilliant. This made me really, really happy. Thanks for the mention man. Considering how much you help me just about everyday with wonderful ideas and inspiration, I'm happy that I could contribute to your hobby too. Keep making videos.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thanks man, your content has been a huge inspiration to me, and you've totally changed the way I make terrain. Can't wait to see what else you have coming up.

[@mscandlex]

doggo aproved

[@Berserkerworks]

The true stamp of approval

1:00 POV: Your older brother is mad that everyone likes your sheep so much so he invites you out to his grapefield for a chat.

A fellow fan of EVA foam. I’ve made a couple of videos using this material and always I’m shocked how many people say they’d never thought of using it! Miscast’s shoutout sent me your way and I’m super glad he did!

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you! Yeah its a great material. I'd been using it to built props and it still hadnt clicked that I could use it for terrain too.

[@geoffwickham1893]

Ive been looking for a while for the best bang for buck/time frostgrave terrain plan. this is definitely it. Many thanks and love your no bullshit presentation.

[@NatesMiniatures]

Beautifully made video once again mate, I am very happy you decided to come to youtube and give it a go a true creator.

[@Berserkerworks]

Appreciated Nate, thanks for the push!

[@ragedrako]

The google algorithm gods have been good today, for recommending me this channel. Instant subscribe for all this amazing content, really well edited, with down-to-earth narration. Love it.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you very much!

[@dennfett]

Very cool little video.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thanks

[@michaelmiller2570]

So glad Miscast recommended your channel.

[@Berserkerworks]

Welcome!

[@wartornminiatures2533]

Hahahaha! I laughed heartily at you going berserk with your EVA foam terrain pieces. Bloody priceless.

[@Berserkerworks]

😁

[@WePaintMinis]

Awesome result and beautifully filmed.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you!

[@cedric233]

I wish the best for you and your channel !

[@victoryspath4116]

Great channel so far. Really impressed by the sound and video quality.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you!

[@UnknownJorge]

I was looking to get into Frosgrave and I landed upon this video. Awesome work, instant sub. Look forward to see some future builds.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you! Frostgrave is a wicked game and I'm looking forward to trying the new edition.

[@UnknownJorge]

@@Berserkerworks You're welcome. Just ordered the new edition. Figured it was the best way to get into it. Take care

[@fistfulofcolours]

This is great! I’m definitely going to try this

[@printandplaygamer7134]

Great video! I've been using XPS for terrain for a while now, and was always leery of EVA because of it's squishiness. Now you've convinced me that the squishiness is a feature, not a bug. I also love the cartoony, ramshackle style of your buildings. Definitely going to give this a try. You win my "favorite new channel" award for the month of September!

[@Berserkerworks]

I'm glad you're giving it a try. Its not a total substitute, but it definitely has its benefits.

[@ischiashomunculus]

I really love your videos, man! Keep up the great work!

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you!

[@therittzer7334]

Okay dude. Subbed. You definitely have a lot to offer the community and I hope you see that. KZbin has been my main media for a long time, I've seen a lot of channels, you definitely have what it takes to make a legit channel here. This has a great Black Magic Craft vibe but your own flavor to it. I *hope* to see a lot more content, more often.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you very much! Very high praise and I appreciate it.

[@therittzer7334]

@@Berserkerworks on a side note I will be using this method this week. My brother ordered frostgrave. While looking up reviews for him to watch I saw this and he started joking around acting like he was bashing the ruins, then you legit yeeted it and we both laughed our butts off. Good stuff. Love the eva idea seems a lot quicker than doing xps too.

[@Berserkerworks]

@@therittzer7334 Thanks:D I think its quicker, If you are in a real rush you wouldn't even need to paint them.

[@therittzer7334]

@@Berserkerworks ha. Depending on my schedule I may not have time to by this weekend. 🤣 Only downside I see is an increased material cost. At least in my area. May look for some used yoga pads or something.

[@therittzer7334]

So, frostgrave was put on hold. However, my 5 year old saw what I was doing and has been playing D&D with me for weeks now! Have you to thank for that! I ended up making several ruined walls, and 2x2" slabs to make a 2'x4' play board. And made some statues and now a gold pile. Ha. It's been nice to craft again. Going to make an insta to post the build pictures I guess. Maybe, I'll start making videos again. 🤣

[@sierraMaddin]

5:20 that's how you get structure in the bricks XD

[@Berserkerworks]

additional texture ;)

[@FzudemR]

... "So why use EVA Foam?"... *squeezes the building* Me: giggle ... "It´s incredibly durable!" *continues to mistreat the terrain...* Me: Oh wow, that´s durable... okay, that should not happen anyw... wha.. ehm dude? DUUDE?! had me on the floor laughing XD nice terrain Mate!

[@Jhokalups]

Nicely done building, I really like how it came together in the end. My son wants you me to ask you to make one for us, but we have the tools and a good how to to try and do it ourselves. Awesome job!

[@Berserkerworks]

I'm honoured that your son wants something I've made. But you're right, build some and make sure to tag me in the photos!

[@Neg4Cubing]

Thank god a glue gun and EVA foam are cheap! Went on a shopping spree today inspired by your awesome work! Hopefully the sand my kids have in the sand pit can make some convincing snow cover (once painted)

[@Berserkerworks]

If you are going for snow there are better alternatives to sand, like baking soda. Sand may end up giving the wrong texture. When I made the Frostgrave battle mat I used straight white caulk. I'm so happy to hear you are give this a try!

[@Neg4Cubing]

@@Berserkerworks I think we have some white chalk at home other wise baking soda, hmm might look into it! Keep up the amazing work 😊

[@j453]

Very awesome, ty

[@denthavin]

Just getting into frostgrave and this tutorial is so handy, love the background music as well.

[@Berserkerworks]

Glad it was helpful!

[@neilgooge]

Moooooo... frostgrave is put together by contractors... its just that wizards are looting... :D Awesome video, a, going to try this myself tomorrow in fact. I've been looking to build a frostgrave table for all my chibi minis, this will be perfect... Great videos.

[@Berserkerworks]

My idea was Wizards placed all the stones with magic, and magic is really the only thing holding everything together. Glad you like the video and its inspired you to build something.

[@neilgooge]

@@Berserkerworks ahhh I see what you mean, that makes as much sense too. Hence how wizards knew of Frostgraves existence all this time down the line... Nice And yes indeed, very inspiring. Looking forward to more content from your good self... :)

[@rekaens]

you just got another well earned subscriber, great job man.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you!

[@concon1629]

Thank god I got reccomended this channel, awesome work man. You deserve thousands more subs, your terrain battle mat with canvas inspired me to do my own, way easier than building entire boards out of plywood and foam, hopefully this will save not only time but money, my mars board sure does look cool though, so.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you very much. Very happy to here you gave it a try and ended up with something you are pleased with!

[@artsmith1584]

If you use a torch to make your Wargaming Terrain..? Awesome!

[@RaqrexArt]

The blow torch to melt the hot glue strings is a great idea! ...or you could use tweezers like me and just waste a ton of time...but hey, to each their own 😝

[@Berserkerworks]

Hahaha I've been there doing that. Now I kill the whisps with FIRE

[@JulianAncestral]

new subscriber here, amazing work man...

[@TeamQuiggan]

Cool video, I've got to dip into some EVA, I've got a couple black mats laying around.

[@Berserkerworks]

Do it!

[@Illersvansen]

Wow, how have I not heard of this stuff before? Hope I can find it in my country.

[@Berserkerworks]

It's often sold as kneeling mats or for kids playrooms. Most department stores have it. If not amazon/ebay/aliexpress is your best bet.

[@Illersvansen]

@@Berserkerworks Just watched your other video on it and realized we have those same mats at the local wargaming club lol

[@Berserkerworks]

@@Illersvansen You're all set!

[@MrFrostyankles]

Now I just need a workshop with a bandsaw...

[@Berserkerworks]

When I made this video I didn't have my own workshop, just a space in my friend's garage. The bandsaw is also cheap, about the same price as a 40k combat patrol box set. You can complete the same project with a box cutter and a ruler.

[@MrSarwat]

First time seeing one of your videos and as I watched, two things came to mind First off; good stuff, very good stuff Second; Holy shit, is that Joe Rogan? Sounds like Joe Rogan to me

[@Berserkerworks]

1. Thank you. 2. Haha, I sound like Joe Rogan??

[@SavageBruski]

Solid fuckin build dude. You got pictures or video of the whole set somewhere? Looks like a perfect set for War machine/hordes.

[@Berserkerworks]

I have a short showcase video on the channel

[@gregwing7355]

do you have a tutorial for carving foam into bones?

[@Berserkerworks]

I don't. Have a look at cosplay tutorials, PunishedProps, Kamui Cosplay, or Lightning Cosplay are great places to start looking. Someone will have made something. Or look for Halloween decorations. Best of luck!

[@boardsandstuff5008]

Amazing you just sved me hundreds of dollars.

[@davrosdavros7198]

The tool you used on wood -that something sold at hardware stores

[@Berserkerworks]

Which tool? Most of the things I use can be found in hardware stores or hobby shops.

[@davrosdavros7198]

At 145 it’s a hand drill?

[@Berserkerworks]

@@davrosdavros7198 Thats a metal point in an exacto blade handle. The thing I use to make the small holes is just a drill bit glued into a piece of wooden dowel.

[@RLBndR]

Well this channel is about 6 months from having 75k subs.

[@Berserkerworks]

Thank you! Wouldn't that be awesome?
