Terrain Crafting: How to make your own Stirland Mud Textured Paint

[@dartmart9263]

Citadel/GW paints are supposed to dry up, long before you finish the paint pot!

[@Damastes76]

An alternative (if slightly more expensive option) is to use acrylic mediums rather than PVA. That way you can vary the amount of matt/gloss medium to create different types of earth (wet or dry). Also worth adding in a handfull of cheap flocking to give it some vegetable debris texture along with the sand, makes for a more realistic effect.

I need to make some more soon, I will give this method a try. Thanks

This is great, I've only recently (in the past few days) had the realisation that I can make mini things - I do a lot of world building but find it hard to visualise my stuff simply through drawing it - so I'm trying to go through all the basics to compile a list and stuff... I'm a broke uni student so anything DIY like this is brilliant (and I live close to an estuary and quite a few beaches within reasonable bus distance, so lots of sand!) Thank you very much

[@TheBattlinBarrowGaming]

Glad it was useful to you. I still haven't purchased any "real" stuff since making this

[@Atri0]

@@TheBattlinBarrowGaming That's brilliant! Do you have any advice for someone who's starting out?

[@wychkingsarmoury]

Awesome video, buddy! Love the recipe.

[@TheBattlinBarrowGaming]

Thank you!

[@Ab3ndcgi]

Great vid! I usually substitute sand with toilet paper tho; it makes it very easy to turn it into green moss, or to sculpt tracks and footprints on ^^

[@TheBattlinBarrowGaming]

Great tip!

[@briankito1655]

I'm curious about the toilet paper... do you shred it up?

[@jymloke]

Wow.. nice video... I was just thinking about this today. What paint did you use? It looks like burnt umber , but is it acrylic or oil? Any recommendations or any of the colour tubes will do?

[@TheBattlinBarrowGaming]

It's a burnt umber acrylic amzn.to/3YogmW0

[@TheBattlinBarrowGaming]
