Finally bit the bullet and splashed out on some foam and accessories to get going with making terrain. Great videos Luke, very inspiring!

[@jjab99]

Nice one Luke, this was very useful and I am so grateful for your advice and tips on terrain making. Have a great weekend and have fun, Joe

[@lawrencereid9375]

Cannot imagine why you would be discussing an otherwise "realistic finish." Your results are INCREDIBLE! I had to get a drink of water while viewing because my throat was getting dry and dusty! THANK YOU for this marvelous video.

[@garethtomkins5797]

Great tutorial luke.great looking terrain and ideal for us ordinary people who just want decent looking game boards,I especially like how you use cheap stuff most of us can get from local stores here in uk.great work luke many thanks.

[@johnkelley9877]

It looks good! Thanks for sharing this.

[@soulpatch.youtube]

This was very helpful! Thanks for throwing this up!

[@mariuszpolak8229]

Great as usual :) This series is very helpful for me as I'm building Egyptian/desert board at the moment myself. Thanks man :)

[@DrDeathmonger]

Those arr fantastic looking hills! I'm definitely going to make some. Thanks! Oh, take apart some jute twine and glue bunches of the hairs together to make nice weeds/vegetation in any length you want.

[@terrain4print]

Great video Luke. It would be good with a "recipe" summary like Duncan Rhodes does. A screen with a list of the colors. Like * Milk chocolate coat * Dark brown wash * Reddish wash in spots * Original base color dry brush * Light cream dry brush * Off white dry brush

[@satocreed]

You don't give your self enough credit sir, i watch from Utah over in the U.S. and these rocks look incredibly similar too the formations we get on the southern end of our state. sand and everything. Ironically the only real difference is you dry brushed it lighter than we have in our deserts.

[@Beartree]

Brilliant video! Thx

[@Armageddon-yt3so]

another awesome video Luke. videos like these make me want to try making my own displays like this for my Gundam kits in the near future.

[@TheHurleybiy]

Learning a lot from your vids Luke! Great work and great channel!

[@carlmayne3519]

Not a great lover of sandy "anything", but this looks great ... really impressive, especially for your first attempt at it! ... Awesome!

[@CyblokGaming]

I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere

[@DrDeathmonger]

Those arr fantastic looking hills! I'm definitely going to make some. Thanks! Oh, one thing came to mind that would go nicely with your otger vegetation: take apart some jute twine and glue bunches of the hairs together to make nice weeds/vegetation in any length you want.

[@ChampionofTerra]

It looks great. Got me motivated to do a set for my self xD

[@ILetYouGo]

looks awesome

[@RageAgainstTheDice]

Brilliant tips, thanks, man, another great video! Which pound shop as that spray will be a lifesaver with the amount of desert terrain I'm about to make...

[@cyagen9782]

Nice one Luke!!!For people on the continent that can't find Pledge, Emsal (Voll-Glanz in Germany) does the same job or the cheap no name version from a supermarket.

[@gavfishergav-lar3088]

[@benelsworth2199]

Now then matey, my first comment for you i have watched a fair few videos and i love them. Just want to say appriceate what your doing.I like cheap being from yorkshire n that. Really interested in the desert stuff i play bolt action desert theme so this is all useful. Are you going to be doing anymore... no pressure ;) sand dunes, dried river beds, canyons? few ideas im being cheeky i know Also you look bollackst in this video mate make sure your not overdoing it with these vids. Keep up the good work though!! your spot on though fella carnt fault you.

[@stevefletcher1161]

look spot on to me

[@FelixFabelhafteWelt]

Hey Luke, how dow you build the mountain or where you buy it?

[@SolventAbuseUk]

lots of ways to boil an egg always good to to try your own way

[@TheHongKongHermit]

Hey Luke. New subscriber, loving your videos. I'm wondering if you have any tips on making sand dune hills for 15mm wargaming that have the sand "ripples" on them. Most sand hills, like the pre-made ones Battlefront sell for Flames of War, tend to just be a sanded down piece of foam with grit stuck on it and painted desert yellow. They're so... smooth. It's easy enough to make a rocky area, the rocks and crags naturally give it character, but the tabletop dunes look so bland and fake. I really want some nice large rippling dunes with those windblown streaks on them. I'm thinking a coating of filler and then while it's damp marking in some undulating marks. But it'll be a while before I'm back making, so right now I'm studying up (which is why I found your channel). Would be great to find someone who had already made some, but so far nobody seems to.

[@Gomes423]

Hi luke :) those terrain looks as always awesome :) can i ask you a question ? do you have a tipp or trick for me how to build some dark eldar terrain pices ? :) would be cool if you can help me :)

[@joschateichmann1065]

Hey Luke what do you mean by colour "off the works"? Can't seem to get a translation. Thanks in advance.

[@R-SXX]

Can you Use Basic Acryl paint for landscapes or aren't they suited for that?

[@matthewbirtles6846]

[@matthewbirtles6846]

[@fenthedog]

Great build but what do you use for the bases?

[@fenthedog]

Thanks :)

[@kalorathekau]

What happened to Parts 1 and 2? I'd really like to see how you got to the stage you're at at the start of this vid :)

[@patrickb6862]

Have you tried gluing fine real sand (like that stuff they use in aquariums) for the sand. You'd still have to match it with the cliffs and mix coloured sands but it might be a solution. Also As someone who lives in the desert you know when something just doesn't quite look right, but your getting closer and its exciting to see you do more biomes. Basically the rocks and the sand should be almost identical in colour (as the sand just comes from those rocks and sand gets blown into pores in the cliff face (Hurray for sedimentary rock formations)). Anyways I hope this helped and keep up the good work. see for referance: www.redcliffsdesertreserve.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Web-13-Beatuiful-red-rock-views-along-trail.jpg upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/55/Joshua_Tree_National_Park_2013.jpg
