I literally just painted my first rubber battle mat and wondered how I could make some quick ruins... The timing is amazing. Edit: Yup, definitely going to make these!
This is the rubber mat revolution!!!!
as someone who's toddler is quickly pulling apart all his papercraft buildings, the idea of rugged/fast/cheap terrain speaks to me on a spiritual level
great video, jeremy!
I would put those away from the child. Their actions are not justifiable just because they're a toddler. Show him, who's the boss
pro tip buy your toddler a ton of wooden blocks. In 2 years you're going to have a bunch of wooden blocks to add to your terrain.
I found out if you do this with the paper left on, you can pull it off after and you are left with a rubberized piece of paper you can wrap around cylindrical shapes. Wizard tower bricks!
So simple! Slapping on any extras can also adjust it to any theme! Little "metal" bits turns it modern like rebar sticking out, or even adding fake plants up the sides makes it look like forgotten ruins in a jungle or woods. Such an easy idea with so many uses
"Father cruelly destroys child's precious artwork to furnish his Mancave."
Loving the simplicity of your most recent builds! Super pumped for Idols and excited for you to have made it!
3 layers of foamcore is a neat idea. Normally I’d reach for a single sheet of insulating foam, but I found some old foamcore in the garage covered in dust and spider poop that can’t be used for much else, so this is a timely video.
I said it before and I’ll say it again: You’re such a wholesome person!
"I'm not dead, some of you are probably wondering if I was dead but I'm not
I kind of feel like it though sometimes because I'm pretty tired"
This hit me on a spiritual level
Welcome back! Hope the family trip to Germany was a lot of fun, and it recharged your batteries.
I love all this calk ideas. I never would of thought of using it. I can imagine just finding textured rough rocks on a walk and just mashing the rock into the calk
Welcome back. And now to worry I began rewatching some of your older builds
These turned out really good.
I like these a lot, you can do some 7 inch pieces and add corners halfway up for ruined two story buildings with ledges where you can hide chests and other kinda stuff
Hope you enjoy your vacation.
Greetings from Germany. 😉
Great for making some quick ruins for Frostgrave.
You can even make windows in the walls...torn out doorways...even partial upper floors. Nice.
Looking forward to the next bimonthly video.
I know you're busy, but I just thought you should know there will always be subs! Thanks for the content! Appreciated so much my man.
Simply great. I'll have to make some.
Quicj easy and still looks good on the table, will definitely give this a try.
Amazing! Easy, cheap, modular, durable - all of the things I love!
8:35 "don't let your kids eat your terrain"
Solid advice
Greetings from Germany. I hope you had a nice vacation here.
I hope you and your family enjoyed Germany very much!
Awesome to see you, Jeremy. Was getting worried. Anyway, nice.
ABSOLUTELY A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!
Glad to know 3-1/2 inches is good enough
Oh I am definitely going to make these to fill in my wargaming terrain!
Taking a few extra minutes to push some cut up paper clips as “rebar” and maybe cutting a doorway or two into some of the walls would really push this over the top without much extra effort.
sweet builds for any table top gaming
LOVE this build. It's so simple. I don't build much terrain because of the time investment and seemingly not having the right tools to get a good time investment/results ratio, but this is SO doable with what I have. Thanks dude.
For anybody thinking about the sponsor: Into the AM shirts are dope. I'm 6'6", 220 lbs, athletic build, I wear their large size. They're super comfortable and have great artwork. They shrunk somewhat lengthwise to be on the shorter side for me, but not too short. They also make your arms and shoulders look hella good if you lift at all. Highly recommend, worth every penny.
The off cuts as corner stabilising is one of the best bits!
Back to the roots! Great vid. Makes me want to get back into making terrain.
it's always a good day when a new BMC (black magic caulking) video comes out!
I was scrolling through my CZcams subscriptions yesterday night and I was wondering if you were okay. Of course less than 12 hours later you upload this.
Hope you enjoyed your family vacation. Well deserved. I may have to bang out some ruins fast and easy and this is a perfect solution (since I have everything for it lol).
I would love to see more scatter terrain projects. Your Idols, Swamp and Campsite terrain inspired me and I would love to see another take on that.
Another fun project! And the silicon will be much easier on my teeth when I eat terrain! Congrats on the Idols of Torment progress!
BMC must have sensed I was hankering for a video, cuz it can't be a coincidence that this was uploaded after so very long just a couple hours ago. 😊
Great VDO! I am going to make that terrain to be the border of a post apoc themed slot car track!
I'll give this build a try on cardboard!
Good to see you again!
These are the the videos I love. Simple, easy terrain that doesn't require special tools or 3d printer
What a fantastic method, I cannot wait to try this and get some terrain created for our games we run at our gamestore. Thank you!
Keep on not being dead!
I'm 100% doing this. Thank you!
Simple. Works. And a great base to build off. You can never have enough ruins!
Next video tutorial should be about edible terrain, maybe some ruins made from gingerbread?
Glad you were able to take some time off, but so great to have you, your super builds and energy back on YT!
Good to see your face brother ! Glad to see everything is moving along and in production ! Cheers dude !
Welcome back Jeremy. Great video!
These look great and also look quite fun to make. Thanks!
Envy you for the trip to Germany!
Get any new build ideas from all the castles and old buildings etc?.
As someone who just got into making terrain these videos are a great resource. Love it!
This caulking trick is really something! So versatile. Adds texture and seals at the same time. Big fan
It is nice to see caulk be used as a short cut in crafting terrain. Carving the brick work by hand can be daunting. Cool build!
This is unreal as always my man. Straight knowledge drop
Top notch build
Welcome back Jeremy!
Wow, was a hobbiest 20 years ago and life sort of dragged me away. I'm hopping back, saw this .... wow. GREAT STUFF! Thanks!
Loved this project as always you never disappoint best to your family.
love it! happy to have you back!
Welcome back. Such a simple idea yet it is an evolution to the whole caulking concept.
Your videos are really cool and make our arts and crafts very fun!
Such a fab way of making terrain. Thank you for being inspiring:)
my gaming group made these last weekend - fast, easy and the look great! Gave us so many more ideas. Thanks Jeremy!
Damn. I'm making this. Soo easy and soo quick. Thanks !
Welcome back, with another killer back to basics! Loving the creativity with the caulking lately.
Love the vid!
Any tips or ideas for making large snow drifts? I'm a big fan of making artic terrain.
Very nice. That is a really nice project
Bro, I love the lackadaisical attitude! I can so relate to a former Carpenter doing this genre of art. You’re the man! -Rick, USMC.
The skull on your shirt looked like a freaky full moon rising over your build 😂
Could you do a full ruin castle in the foamcore and caulking? Maybe using a wire brush for a drawbridge! This video has my gears turning 😆
Yes! You certainly can. If, however, it becomes too big to support itself, you may have to brace it with a wooden frame; Use a variety pack of square wooden dowels (available from the craft aisle at Dollarama or whatever your local equivalent is) rather than balsa -- the dowels are stronger and more durable, and the variety pack has several different sizes that will serve different purposes.
The layering makes such an awesome, realistic look for the walls!!! And I’m sure that technique would work great for EVA as well, even though it’d definitely be way pricier than the foamcore.
Jeremy's not dead? That's great news; though it does mean I've lost the Deadpool.
This is such a cool project.
Great video and welcome back. 😄
Good video. A throwback to your early days!
Thank you for the Video, I need some Ruins for my 54mm Klingons and Jem'Hadar to fight over 😊
"We took a trip to Germany", yeah Jeremy went for the Styrodur import 😆
i love the, "i'm not dead!!!" prove it! :P
These look amazing. You truly are a hobby genius. Thanks for sharing!!!
Looks great! Regarding rolling pins, don't forget that if you have an FDM printer you can print a roller pretty easily! That's what I did!
These are great. This will definitely be a weekend project with the kids in the future
I randomly came across this channel and during your little break I’ve watched your whole back catalog of videos so I’m glad to see you back making new content! The builds are so awesome I can’t wait to give something like these builds a go myself dude
Absolutely top notch video as always! Wanted to add one little tip - if you want/need bases to show the exact area of the terrain for wargaming (common for 40k), do NOT use foamcore. Its fantastic for stuff like these walls in the video, but especially in a club context foamcore used as a base will fall apart, get dented, fray, and look terrible really fast and its very likely to warp.
Use Expanded PVC foam sheets. You can order these online, or buy from sign shops or if you are lucky enough to have a plastic supplier use that. Sometimes sign shops have them for cheap or free in a scrap bin in sizes too small for signs but great for hobby. The material is stiff and durable, but not too hard to cut at roughly the same thickness of foamcore. It is also extremely warp resistant. Its more expensive than foamcore, sure, but so so worth it. The material also opens up a lot of useful functionality - its got a sturdy enough integrity that you can pin into it or bevel the edges for example. Its basically a strictly better version of MDF or particle board type materials when used in this context. Its also pretty much exactly the right weight - just heavy enough to be substantial, but lighter than most wood based materials and a lot lighter than stuff like acrylic or plexi where the weight can actually be quite problematic.
Love this build!!! Glad to have you back making videos. I have literally watched all of your video’s several time over. Keep up the great work.
Welcome back, dude! Awesome project, really digging some of these quick and easy builds that give awesome results.
Hope you enjoyed your time off! It's always important to relax and regroup. Thanks for the great videos!
So glad to see you back to building and look forward to what you are tackle moving forward! These are going to be perfect for traveling to the game I DM
As someone who hasn't crafted much yet these seem like a fantastic alternative for 3D printing all your terrain, especially for something simple like ruins or walls. Custom miniature makers has some fantastic 3D printable texture rollers as well.
What a great idea man. Clearly that time away really helped the creativity spark! Thanks for doing what you do, it always keep my cogs turning
Thanks! Great idea! I've not seen rollers used in this way and looking forward to giving it a try.
Awesome, Thanks for an awesome video!
Hell ya! I’ve got some hobby board terrain ruins I’ve assembled, but been unsure how to give them character - the caulk & rolling texture is absolutely brilliant and def the move for me now. Great stuff man! Huge fan of into the AM too
Looks nice! Want to try it.
Might have to make a few of these.... While watching, was thinking that you could use a piece of 1 1/2" to 2" wide foam in between two of these sheets to have a walkway. If you had a watch tower or something too, you could make a 90 degree corner piece to sit around the watch tower. Great video!
I needed this. I've been wracking my brains on how to make some desert adobe type ruins in the middle of a desert and was really coming a cropper. Plus the double-layering was great and solves warping.
I missed you dude. Keep bein' awesome.
Again the simplicity with great effect combo!
On the spray paint note; if you do end up with some melted areas because of overspraying, that's fine. It just lends more to the ruined look.
Im am so grateful for your videos thank you:3 much love to you and your family. You have helped bring my dnd games to a whole new level
I would add a shelf in some of the corners giving elevation for the Goblins to attack from.
Having modular ruined walls is a must for any war game. These look like they could easily fit into fantasy, modern, or grim dark future.
I also liked that you used scrap foam board from painting projects.
