Light up your industrial terrain !

[@BillMakingStuff]

Hello Gert's squirt! Great video mate

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks weirdo ! 😘

[@KnarbMakes]

You make some good terrain you glorious bastard.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Back at ya 😉

[@Berserkerworks]

That bit of sampling with foam and the hex pattern was genius!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks mate ! Totally stole it from the cosplayers

[@josray2557]

wow this one was fantastic sir, that containment tank was a great example of how few elements can make something look so damn cool.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks !

[@X45896]

Looks amazing. That wifi USB hub is giving me ideas already.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thank you.

[@TerrainTronics]

Hi John - forgive the copy paste from another comment here: The WiFi card is a “wemos d1 mini” board that is very similar to “Arduino” (if you’ve heard of it). Available from amazon pretty cheaply, due to being mass produced in China! The interface board he used is a terrain tronics Harlech Castle board. There’s “codeless” examples over on TerrainTronics channel/website.

You're seriously one of my top five fave content providers. Great build, great humor, completely educational and entertaining. Keep on keeping on, Gert!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thank you very much! Will do.

I like that " l am the whole zoo , not just a monkey." Good build , l have been putting off the lighting my builds , my daughter came home from the $ store with 50 or so , looks like it is time.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

It’s time ! Thanks 😉

[@tamsynmcnally8280]

From now on you will be known in our house as Gert the grey. Grey is our favourite colour. Great build as always and using our favourite materials, junk, love it.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Gert the Grey ? I like it ! Thanks for watching 😉

Yay. DMW video. Boom. The weekend begins.

That monkey part made me laugh pretty hard. Keep up the great work, been really enjoying your content.

Thanks ! Enjoy 😉

Glad I could help, cheers 😉

Very interesting. It looks so cool! 😜😍

Bromance between you and Bill really cracks me up. I think the creature you made looks so cool! Also great tattoo.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! 😉

[@TerrainTronics]

Gert, thank you for the shout out! I have to say, I was amazed how little support you needed to get up and running. Brains and Dashingly Good Looks! :)

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Yes ! 😂😉

[@goatmealcookies7421]

Nice use of resin. Liked your critter, too.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks !

[@fnorazril]

Ah yes, the highlight of the day. Always a good time seeing you work on projects. Neat trick with the storage bin for the hex pattern flooring. Now I need to keep my eye out for something that has a similar pattern. The detail work really brought this to life, love the flickering light in particular. Great work as always!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thank you very much!

[@foogrot]

Gert, it's been a minute, I hope all is well in your world. Much love and great sounds!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

All is well, coming back soon. Thanks 😉

[@paintandplayminis328]

That finishing touch with the resin was a great add!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thank you.

[@ryubiskj]

damn that looks cool. i was kinda hoping that the creature head in the tank would also be engulfed in some kind of liquid but i guess thats hard to emulate. awesome work either way!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! Yes, I thought about pouring resin in the tank but time was of the issue so I decided against it. Maybe in the future.

[@Craftlngo]

this is one awesome looking terrain! You put a lot of effort in this piece. Excellent work!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thank you !

[@fredrikvanlienden6749]

I like your stuff, Gert. Extra kudos for using wire-wrap to connect the circuit.

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks !

Stamping patterns in to hot EVA Foam is a great idea.

Thanks ! Expect more EVA stuff soon(ish)

[@euansmith3699]

@@DarkMatterWorkshop I can see the thicker EVA Foam being useful for making curved walls.

Nice, Gert! The finish on the tank, and the green ick turned out great. Nice looking piece

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thank you !

[@LiliaArmoury]

a good trick i have found from my time as a cosplayer is to have an ice cream container filled with cold water to drop your hand into if you get hot glue onto it

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Great trick ! Thanks 😉

[@NaturalG16]

Last time, I voted for Eric. This time, no shame to Knarb, but you definitely nail it, so far!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Oh, so when there are no negative consequences you vote for me ?! Thanks ! 😉

[@HacksawsHobbyBunker]

From Darkness, We Ascend. (Great Build!)

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks !

Another excellent video man. Underrated tip with heating the EVA foam to add texture and patterns; such an excellent, cheap and fast method for builders! Keep up that great work

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! Will do.

[@johnboulton1109]

This is fantastic Gert! Well done on a great project! 👍🏻

Very inspiring video, it's giving me great ideas for my terrain. Thanks a lot! By the way, the music is sick, consider uploading it to youtube. I'm sure many people, myself included, would love to hear the whole thing!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! Working on a album, hope to release soon(ish).

[@_twistedbrush_]

Awesome build. Whats that tool called that you used to join the wires to the LEDs?

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! It’s a wirewrap tool you can find it on amazon

[@lvlikenicholson]

Super sweet! Fantastic detail and grunginess! Whatever is that blue wiring tool?

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! That’s a wire wrapping tool great alternative for soldering.

[@TerrainTronics]

Hi Mike - Wire Wrap tool, available from Amazon and Aliexpress - not much a price difference. Expect to pay ~$18USD for one. Wire wrap tools work AWESOME on devices with square shaped pins. For devices with round pins (such as the leg of a resistor), you can still use a wire wrap tool, but bear in mind that without corners, the wire won't "grab". I suggest giving it a quick blob of solder as well.

[@lvlikenicholson]

@@TerrainTronics Thanks!

[@oorlogshamer688]

Awesome as ever! What is that magical stick you use for the LED?!

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! That’s a wire wrapping tool.

Merci ! 😉

[@LorielStarkWinterfell]

Great build! I have to ask you in about 5 min in the build the plastic container you glued plasticard to it, but how did you paint the inside of the plasticard after? I presume you either just ripped them apart or made a new container with prepainted strips :D

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Thanks ! I just painted the inside of the container where the white was showing thru.

[@headbones2]

Gert, what's that tool at 10:02 for wire stripping and connecting? I've tried googling, but I'm getting nowhere. Thanks

That’s a wirewrap tool, found it on amazon.

Where do I find the container tat you use to make the tile as? Thanks.

Awesome I am glad you understood my comment. Haha. Thanks

[@AndyJohnson3leftturns]

Hey Gert I love the videos, I’ve just started Necromunda and terrain for it. When you use plaster mesh, how does it hold up over time? Does it support the models ok when they are on top of a section like the one with the pipes below?

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Hi, thanks for watching! It’s pretty strong but I wouldn’t recommend heavy models or doing big open plains of the stuff unsupported.
