>>98150572 some are drybrushed cardboard, the rough side of cereal boxes, some are drybrushed slices of bubble foam. For the red ones in the foreground I just glazed watered down red over them.
>>98149944 I don't know a lot about their sets, but I do know that a lot of their trains were made from commercial kits (sometimes obscure old ones that someone on the team had to go hunt down in specialty stores, or happened to stumble upon). Since they're on a budget and already using commercial train models anyway, I would guess that most of their sets are built using very similar techniques to model railroads and indeed wargaming terrain. PVA glue, flocking, carved foam hills, etc. Some of their stuff might not be as robust as wargaming terrain since it's not going to have a bunch of heavy models on bases being picked up and put down all over it, but it still needed their little human models to be able to stand on it and not fall apart from scene to scene. In that scene the grass on the hill kinda looks like they found some nicely textured green fabric, for example. You could probably get a similar result by laying a green dishcloth over a foam hill shape.
>>98152538 Thanks anon. I know there are lots of model train tutorials out there. Which video tutorial maker makes the best diy train terrain videos that even idiots can follow? Like me. Lego building tutorial slideshow videos set the standards for me when I was a kid. And I still can’t adapt.
I’m okay with model train pdfs that are made and shared for free by intention too.
>>98157111 Mix PVA, grey acrylic and water together so you can give it a primer while making it stronger. These pieces are going to see a lot of action.
Bumping this thread because I am having a heck of a time trying to figure out a good basing scheme for my new army project and I want to look at the cool images.
none of this terrain is legal in any 40k game setting regardless of your “artistic expression” says other wise. The measurements do matter & the standard of terrain has to follow the rules set by Gameswork shop(tm), the table must be 4x4 & the measurements for each terrain size are the following; Small terrain features (e.g., barricades, small ruins, trees): 2" to 3", Medium terrain features (e.g., larger ruins, walls, industrial structures): 3" to 4" & Large terrain features or terrain areas (e.g., buildings, large ruins, forests): 4" to 6" that's the proper sizes that actually follow the proper rules as of 10th edition, however there was changes with 11th edition for cover also, you must take in considerations of gameplay flow which none so-call "terrain" barely follow.
