My local discount shop LOVES me, as I take away their huge bags of folded down cardboard boxes for my projects. I get loads of free material for making all kinds of fun things, they save on their recycling charges, so everyone wins :-) Cardboard modelling was huge when I first started making "models" way back in the 1970's, and is still my go-to source of material for many of my projects. Now it's called "creative recycling" but I still call it "FUN." :-)

This basic template can easily be embellished in small ways, to address the plainness issue. Applying a brown wash to the lower sections to imply dirt or mud. Sticking smaller, thinner bits of cardboard on the walls and painting them metallic to look like machines or conduits (a similar effect could be done with lengths of scrap wire or bent paperclips). Flicking red or rusty brown paint, to imply a blood splatter. Printing out small pictures of propaganda posters and gluing them to the side. Writing graffiti on the walls with felt tip pens.

For sure, I tend to try and keep things simple to stop making the video super long and complex but those are some good ideas to help with the plainess!
@bicskeiz3 жыл бұрын
For the price and time, its perfect! I would maybe try to paint it like its made out of some metal, because the walls are a bit too thin for concrete, but at the end its actually lot less disturbing, like I thought at the beginning.
@TerrainMadeEasy3 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I didn't even speak about how much time it took, because it was only about 2 hours at most. I understand the issue in thickness and I wouldn't do it for a dio or something but for something from like 2 foot away on a table, I don't think you'd really notice!

Hey remember when Midwinter Minis made those concrete walls? Guy made a paste mixture that included flour and salt and coated the styrofoam with that. It gets a nice concrete texture when it dries. That might be even cheaper than the spackle or filler etc.

It is sheaper but I don't like the idea os using bio stuff like that incase it gets mold etc but filler in the uk is like £1 so pretty darn cheap.

Thank you for this video, I was looking for a way to texture cardboard to appear as concrete. Does the polyfilla texture ever flake off or break off at all? is there any chance of it coming off once its on? Im thinking of mixing Modpodge into the spackle and black paint mix.
