Always glad to see this. After watching a lot of terrain crafters on KZbin with Bill making stuff, Eric's hobby workshop, Black magic craft, Wyloch's Armory, MS paints, Scratch Bashing, DM Scotty , Wulvenkraft, Summon lesser maker, Miniature Hobbyist & many others, it's a part of the hobby I always find interesting. The US craft stores (Michael's, hobby lobby and the underrated craft section at Dollar tree) have been a big help too.

13:00 If you separate some of the filler into another container, you can also mix a bit of PVA glue into it to give it that extra bit of durability when it dries.

Awesome video, as ever, Mr. Peach! One other tip if people want their blocks to look more like weathered stone: before assembly and painting, put them in a plastic bin with some actual rocks from the garden and shake them up really well. That will put rock-textured dents and dings into them, then just follow your tutorial from there! :)

I watched this as I finished gluing 9000 little tiles on my Mordheim board. My back hurts and my eyes feel strained. Maybe I should have just done wooden blocks! These look so great. If anyone’s interested, I’ve used thinned down ready to go grout as texture for walls. It scales really well and has the added bonus of drying rock hard.

One way to get cheap scenery paint is to grab whole bunch of wall paint "test packs" - they are cheap as dirt, come in variety of colors and tend to be durable and have good coverage. Another useful things are "concrete effect", "hammered metal " and rust effect sprays you can get in various arta and craft stores. They are reasonably priced, and save a lot of time . And combined with some quick and dirty homemade washes (or oil wash in case of hammered metal", they allow to paint decent looking scenery extremely quickly.

For Necromunda terrain, I wanted to go for a rusty, industrial theme. I used a textured "aged iron" in a can before adding color. Then, I base coated brown. Next, I used a series of sponged on craft paints. This process looks great and it's super cheap to do. I'm sure using sponged on layers of craft paint would work for other applications as well.

There are often really interesting shapes in polystyrene packing in most boxed items. You can’t use most rattle can spray paints because they contain solvents so people use emulsion house paint e.g. colour tester pots or a mix of PVA glue and cheap acrylic paint and sometimes sand mixed in for texture. Super cheap and easy to modify or weather with any sharp knife. If you want to get fancy, you can buy a hot wire tool and make practically anything with a hot glue gun. I remember making entire castles from sheets of polystyrene and if it gets broken or a mistake is made then it’s an historic ruin. Cheers!

Late comment to this video, but I think you should do a scratch build from cheap kids toys. I have seen other creators do it before as a challenge, and it is always awesome. In the States we have what we call Dollar Stores. Cheap shops that have a bunch of cheap stuff under $5 or even under $1. Basically you buy like some cool cheap toys for like less than $10 and other craft stuff they sell there, or even anything in the store really, and make a terrain piece, or pieces from chopping them up and repurposing it. Especially Sci-Fi terrain, crashed ships etc. Love your stuff so far. cheers!

Very convincing result Peachy, it rocks ! And I love seeing how excited you are with that revelation. Next time you use wooden blocks, remember... it's wood. There's no glue that bonds it better than plain cheap wood glue. Just stick sanding paper on a board, have a few passes on it with the block side you want to glue to remove the paint and varnish for a better grip, coat it with glue, press it with the other block. I can guarantee you it won't break if you drop it from a table or a shelf. The hot melt glue ? I would not bet on it.

This is genius! Gald you hit on the Mos Eisley vibe, I had that in my head the whole way through. My top tip, If I can add one... Once you brush the filler. To hide the brush strokes, just give it a pass over with a sponge. Just dab the sponge all over, and it'll remove the brush strokes.
@PeachyTips
@PeachyTips 6 ай бұрын
Great top tip! Normally I would stab the filler once it was beginning to dry, but filming got interrupted and then it was too late, so I just accepted it as it was. Though I suppose I could’ve mentioned that in the video 🤦‍♂️ But the sponge idea is smarter I think as it can be done on the first pass without the need to wait for it to cure a little 👍👍👍

@PeachyTips I think you did mention stabbing with a brush, so you didn't forget. I found out by accident that sponge was a great way to blend the effect, it soaked up any runs and gave a great texture on top.

Few fun additions while keeping a mini around for scale: aluminum foil under PVA glue with sand (get the sand from a crafting store & extra bottle of 1/2 PVA glue, 1/2 water), wax paper (great thing to put down while painting), parchment paper & for the hot glue gun be sure to get an inexpensive ceramic plate to put under it (to easily clean, use extra blobs of glue & protect the table).

I appreciate home made scenery. It has a charm to it. Making scenery is my favourite part of the hobby. I've also seen other kids toys used to make very effective scenery. Magnet tiles make some outstandingly effective modular walls for dungeons or space ships. They aren't as cheap as wooden blocks, but they are endlessly modular and you could dress them up as ship interiors for star grave / Kill Team.

As a big fan of Black Magic Craft, was really looking forward to this one. Time and budget friendly scenery is awesome. I bet some caulking mixed with sand would be a good filler/texture material. I think you could use a wood carving veiner (aka a little v shaped blade for making grooves) or just a scratch awl to create stonework texture (or other features) pretty nicely.

I'll say that I was really impressed with the look of smaller sections of stacked blocks, especially at 24:31. With larger structures in view, the terrain still looks great for the cost, but the zoomed in view on square blocks with grass growing from the gaps really stood out to me as punching above their weight class. I have a lot of expensive terrain to paint first, but I think if I were to try this, I'd use it for more scatter terrain-type elements. Lose blocks and small walls. Really dig those!

Oh.. initially those primary bricks are not convincing me but as they say "scrubs up nicely", what a transformation, I see historical ruins, fantasy, science fiction.. most of all, I like what I see. I think wooden blocks might be in my future, quite like the idea of robust ruins daubed with Ork patterns, something that can take a few knocks and easilly fixed. Cracking vid.. excited to see them in you beauty shots, battle reports and most of all, future expansion vids. Some cheap experiments I've done - Cocrete bunkers from packing styrofoam shapes. Columns from plastic tubes that contained water-soluble vitamins. Clad in rectangles of cereal box card over a layer of PVA'd kitchen roll. Piles of ammunition, stacked cannon balls from little airgun bb pellet balls I've found around outside, filled a couple of old agrax bottles over a summer. Washed, glued into stacks, painted, perfect scale for scatter terrain. A larger pyramid stack painted like stone might go nice with wood block ruins too.

This is great idea as someone with limited space and storage at the moment a terrain set like this would be perfect for me. It's probably been said already but a few changes I would make would be to use dowels to make the blocks more modular and moveable. Choose which pieces I would use as barricades and buttresses, fix the dowels into the one side and drill a connection spot into the other. Also before the base coating step chip and rough the blocks up on brick or concrete to give them a more textured or used look

Since I've moved to 15mm proper miniatures, I still use those basic wood shapes for some terrain, or I grab some cardstock and make my own. I have been eyeing up the old cubes and jenga blocks and wondering about hot gluing them together in different shapes, and I think you've just given me the push to get it done :D

Inspiring! A few weeks ago I actually used some wooden blocks to build terrain for a little micro game called Kuroi.

The super glue holds things together while the wood glue forms a strong bond, so the pieces are less prone to breaking apart.

Went in to this quite skeptical, thinking it'd be more of a last resort, low budget option for scenery, but damn, yeah, that came out proper nice. I was still doubtful until you started adding the extra painted markings, and then the grass tufts really did just bring it home in a way I didn't expect. And then arranged on the grass mat with the trees around the outside as a natural boundary, has a sort of nostalgic vibe to it, like the random structures you'd see in games like Halo where you don't even think about what it's supposed to be or why it was built, once you see the enemy is there it just makes sense to fight over it.

Hmm... certainly could work well for Necron blackstone structures potentially 🤔 Tempting...tempting...

I absolutely loved this and was already thinking of all the ways I could make this more sci-fi by just gluing some wires and greeblies on. Thank you for the inspiration!

look at kids manget tiles - when boarding action came out there was alot of movement in the community to use them to make spaceship walls.

This is great! I’ve recently been posted to a rural community, and I’m starting up an after school warhammer club. This is a great way to get terrain on the table quickly.

This is awesome! You could cut the costs down significantly if you used a cheap textured spray paint for the base coat. It would prime and negate the need for filler...

Love this idea! It’s always cost effective to have terrain that works for multiple games. A “Tomb Kings” sort of terrain works with so many games. A friend from a game store used ceiling tiles for terrain. Great video!

They look great although I was expecting some smelting! As an even more budget option you can use toilet roll and pva to cover the blocks instead of filler!

The finished product turned out so much better than you'd expect for something built out of kids blocks. My friends and I want to get into Necromunda, particular the Ash Wastes content. In addition to some terrain ideas, this vid got me thinking about taking some toy cars and kitbashing Mad Max style vehicles out of them.

There’s so much scope with it, Necromunda is also a brilliant suggestion too, and if you get the larger kids cars, they’ll be perfect for mad max style vehicles 😘👌

Good stuff! These look absolutely fantastic! Very simple, but incredible versatile. Might have to pick up some wooden blocks now...

This is a pretty brilliant idea in its simplicity and the nice effect of the final product. Only thing I would do different is to hit the woodblocks with a texture spray before the final colors.

Yeah that’s a very cool idea, I’ve used a few of those sprays in the past, with varying results, I do trust my filler more, but I’ll definitely give it a blast in a future build 👍👍👍

My favorite terrain as of late has been paper-craft. Assuming that a printer is already owned, some thicker paper will be all you need. Until you need to refill the toner/ink. It is paper, so it won't be as sturdy. But it is also just paper. If it breaks, print out a new one.

That brings me back to the old days. My friends and I used to do this back in the 80's & 90's and we had no money and plastic scenery didn't exist.
