Making Terrain For FREE - Warhammer 40k Ruins

Building Ruins Warhammer 40k - This Cost Nothing!
So I take my Poorhammer build to it's extreme and make some terrain in which I just used everything I already have and that most people probably have. This is cardboard terrain with some little bits added to make it look okay.
How do you make terrain with cardboard in 40k?
The main exception is the paints, I had 2 greys but I appreciate that is mainly just luck!

Where can we find the template you had I loved them cut some out for my lgs but we need more and can't find my files I got at one point on patreon?

[@Theabalam]

love the poorhammer builds. now its time for some freegion builds!!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thanks

[@johnkelley9877]

I am impressed with how you used the bare minimum tools and supplies to make a great looking piece of terrain! I think this is a great tutorial and I look forward to your next ones.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you, I tried to take the bare minimum to it's extremes in this one and I honestly think it would make a great table with multiple on there. Thank you very kindly :)

[@andrewthornley5172]

Post is 3 years old and still helping people. Well done.

[@Lewis-TheNthLevel]

Great video, and I'm really glad to see people just using cardboard, because finding XPS foam or foamboard where I live is an absolute nightmare. Only one thing to say: It would be amazing if we could see a longer shot of the finished piece at the end of the video!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Hey, and thank you, that's why I mix up materials. But the reason the end shots are shot, is because people were clicking off the video when they started, so I am basically trying to help myself on youtube! Not a great answer but the truth :)

[@WylochsArmory]

YES

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Yes! It's great to have you back crafting as well. Hope you and family are well :)

[@honestindomitus1342]

The production is only getting better, sir! The idea to use filler and paint mix on the corrugation is so obviously good that I can’t believe I haven’t thought of it on my own before now.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you, it's sort of funny I am trying to make higher quality videos of the cheapest terrain you can possibly make! An alternative to filler would be pva and sand, but I haven't actually done that and don't think I would like the texture. Thanks :)

[@HacksawsHobbyBunker]

Good looking, serviceable terrain for cheap/free. Doesn't get much better than that. Cheers!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Yes indeed, that's sort of my whole goal on the channel! Thank you.

[@FallenSailor]

It’s very satisfying to make my D&D terrain from things lying around the house. My wife and her family are kind enough to save me unusual boxes and packaging. This is a really nice piece. Thanks for sharing it with us. Keep the great clips coming!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

My pleasure and good luck crafting

[@shanegrogan8172]

Fantastic stuff! I’ve just moved so I’m buried under cardboard at the minute so this looks perfect 👍

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Hehe cardboard is way too common in our house just because of online shopping!

[@Nosbod_Hobbies]

Love the resourcefulness and creativity! Great job!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thanks :)

[@tomjones1679]

Awesome video! Just made my own today after finding out how much scenery bloody costs! Absolute legend thank you

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Glad it helped!

[@vaniellys]

Looking great ! Also your minis look super pretty !

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you, I am not a great painter and I spent way too long on about 10 space marines! lol

[@caseyharbick6343]

Immediately after starting the video, " THE DOG CHEWED ON WHAT!?!?" 🤣

[@knightofrock1908]

Broke ass uni student getting into warhammer, videos like this really help out ! Your channel is great man!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you and good luck with crafting and UNI :)

[@thejaxter6993]

A fantastic little build, earned a sub

[@ilasdad2875]

Your video editing is getting better! Great as always.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you :)

[@CampaignTerrain]

Nice, straightforward, inexpensive build. I really enjoy stuff like this. Nice one, Jay

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thanks man, it's like right in my wheelhouse I guess! Thanks :)

[@crayzeewhorse]

That's so creative

[@recoveringlibertarian5982]

Very cool , because I have everything all ready

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Yeah, I wanted to show that just using really simple stuff you might already have, you can build okay stuff. I would recommend a hot glue gun, pva and a brown paint as well though. good luck

[@TheHobbyGrotto]

Cheap terrain videos are such great value! 😆

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you :)

[@ashdanny2730]

Dude this is great thank you so much

[@syrupoffig4865]

this deserves SOOOOOOOOOOO many more views!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Hehe thank you

[@joshmortimer3831]

this is genius but simple love it. Thanks

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you

[@vargenfenrisson1164]

how i wish that youtube existed 20 years ago when i started doing warhammer haha, your tips are fantastic il borrow this one for a video later and tweak it a bit just for fun. il drop you a comment somewhere when my terrain channel is setup and ready :)

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Good luck :)

[@Clamamity]

Awesome idea with the filler, your videos are really getting better!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thanks, I don't think I am the first to put filler on card but I prefer the look over pva and sand myself :)

[@davebuts1921]

Great project and looks good for free nice one mate.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

I am really happy with the result. I appreciate not everyone wil lhave two shades of grey but it was fun to mess about a bit. Thanks :)

[@DziaduzLasu]

How I did not know about this channel? Instant subscribe.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

We will blame youtube! But thank you and welcome :)

[@eliali1194]

¡Mil gracias por el tutorial!

[@benhayden9198]

Another great video. It shows you don't need loads of £££ to have pretty decent terrain on your table 👍

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

For sure, that's really the end goal, it's great if you can spend lots and get all the fancy stuff but no harm in super cheap if that's what you need :)

[@adolphineatingchildren2641]

as a new warhammer player, this terrain tutorial will help me a lot. thanks

[@ryanosborne4261]

[@shawncarnes9471]

BRILLIANT !

Thank you, and love your star Trek profile pic, looks TOS which I do love!

[@tamsynmcnally8280]

Great job

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you :)

[@sojibro4811]

why don't you have more subs. ur amazing!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

I am having a bit of a break right now :)

[@kelvinsantiago7061]

Got toe free OPR paper minis amd rules and got the cardboard free from my job just need some cheap paint and in ready

[@matheuscypriano3771]

Great! O guess It works with foam board too.

[@edevans5991]

Using the glue stick and super glue really showed your dedication to the concept of free. You could dress these up with brick rubble made from cut up sprues. Also free!

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

I don't want to clickbait or anything so had to follow through on the idea! Sprue and stuff would make great rubble :) Thanks.

[@edevans5991]

@@TerrainMadeEasy Well, I think you could have possibly sneaked in some PVA without that leading to too many accusations. Haha.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

@@edevans5991 hehe I try to be a man of my word when possible and honestly some people still thought I misled a little. I do think next time I will use PVA etc and just refer people back to this.

[@DarrenMalin]

I thought 'I know I will by a laser cutter and have free terrain for ever' we I am 500 pounds in with the cutter plus accessories and other tool and STILL do not have any terrain lol :)

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Heh I laugh but I look at my proxxon and how little I use it

[@sulgodar2738]

Ferb, I know what we’re doing today!

[@MiniatureLandscapeHobbies]

GOOD VIDEO. I bet you were never so excited to get back to your glue gun.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Hehe for sure, it feels like such a luxury now!

[@b.lloydreese2030]

Nice

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Thank you very kindly :)

[@thenickgross1485]

I’m currently building one but I don’t have any filler Anything you recommend as a substitute

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

I think you can use pva and sand. But any kind of like gap filling putty would be okay, joint compound, or anything, mayve even thick plaster of paris.

[@thenickgross1485]

Thanks and I ended up finding both Pva and some Spackle. I had to use hot glue though, on a scale of 1-10 how painful was the superglue. Love you’re vids btw.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

@@thenickgross1485 I would 100% suggest hot glue! Super glue and glue stick was terrible and ultimately wasteful! Thank you :)

[@thenickgross1485]

Thank you for this tutorial but I could only finish the ending with one hand because I had a hand accident involving a saw

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

@@thenickgross1485 oo damn, hope everything is recoverable (I mean the hand!)

[@draken__27]

What do you mix with gray to fill the walls? ty

[@Wolfogre]

That's some slick work! How long did it take you, in total?

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Well, I used some slower methods for video, pva and a hot glue gun would have been way quicker, but I reckon less than 2 hours working time. Hard to remember so much, sorry :)

[@Wolfogre]

@@TerrainMadeEasy I'm unemployed so time is the one thing I have plenty of, haha.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

@@Wolfogre If you don't have a hot glue gun, I would at least get a £1 bottle of pva! With that you will have an easier time. Good luck :)

[@Skelfi]

The templates you have linked to, are not the same as in the video.

[@luise.londono6080]

How well does this last in time?

[@ZDPQC]

ISWTG you do New World videos

[@WaldoWally]

Noob question: is filler the stuff that's used on gyprock/drywall?

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

Often called spackle or pre mixed joint compoound, it's basically ised to fill in holes on walls. Hope that helps!

[@BrushQuill]

That looks nice. Cardboard terrain gets an unfair bad rep.

[@TerrainMadeEasy]

The key thing for me is to make it firmer with the filler....and during that it can feel very much like it is going to disintigrate but when it all dires, it's more than fine! Thanks :)

[@soledude]

👏👏👏

[@lorrainemclay3343]

Great effort 👏👏😀🌈🇭🇲👏👏👏

Anyone else wondering how to his dog got a knife

You know, I never asked, it was my wife's dog before I got with my wife.
