- In this video I demonstrate how to quickly and easily texture and paint MDF buildings with everyday materials and no airbrush!
Get the buildings here:

No wet palet, no thinning the paint, no excuses and no remorse. Congrats, looks ace man!
Brilliant. I use spackle all the time on mini bases. Hadn't thought about it on my stucco buildings.
Superb work! "Spackle"! Hilarious! It is called "filler" here in the UK!
Australia has filler too 👍 Spackle ? 🤣
This is a really good video 👍
I think it comes from the German “Spachtel” meaning spatula, the thing you use to smooth it into cracks in the wall.
Thanks for sharing. Absolutely brilliant mate!
Incredible results. Thanks for sharing.
Simply gorgeous, fantastic tips!
Looks great! And thats my favourite undercoat!
Travis, Great Job
THIS WHOLE SET UP IS ONE OF MY FAVS.
Gorgeous terrain! The tutorial was very well done. I picked up some helpful tips. Thanks Travis!
Those are really cool! Loving the texture on there. I’ve been pretty put off my MDF terrain and this is going to make me take a second look. Thanks!
Great video and given me thoughts for doing my own, techniques seem really straightforward and easy.
Excellent! Many thanks Travis
Excellent tutorial Travis, really useful mate. 👍😁
Great video and fantastic results!
Very nice town you have there. the technique is a great idea and looks excellent on the table!
Cool video, I'm currently building some terrain, since I've just gotten into Bolt Action. This is some great inspiration! :)
such beautiful work
That is exactly what I am looking for, your style of painting works very well too. Great tutorial, I will try to follow your tutorial very closely when I get this set. Cheers and Thank you.
great job love the village anmd some great tips
Brilliant just ordered some of these for Peninsular Sharp Practice and Blood and Plunder
Very Nice Job Sir!! The Final Product is absolutely amazing👍👍
Very nice. great job!!
Great video , thanks for the tutorial. I’m working on the same type of buildings. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. Cheers 🍻🍻
I've been doing the spackle trick on both MDF and 3d printed terrain, but hadn't seen sand or weathering powder in action. Very nice!
Looks good, I'll definitely be using this! :)
I saw your post on FB this am and was going to ask you if you did a video and lo and behold here it is. Nicely done great ideas. Excellent execution.
Nice work Travis, similar to how I did mine, but I prefer how you did the spackle and the sand. I put on a much heavier layer of spackle, yours is definitely a quicker way.
Great work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🍻
An excellent video really helpful
you put in loads of effort, 10 out of 10. da iawn
I can't really use the spackle/sand for 15mm but I can use your technique for the roof. Looks great!
It would probably work ok just water the spackel down a bit more and use fine grain sand
VERY GOOD WORK! GREETINGS FROM GERMANY!
Nice Travis. I tried using chinchilla sand mixed with pva on the walls and that works too. The buildings do look cool though!
This looks really good! I've never really known what to do to make MDF look good, this process works great for that style.
Have you ever tried oil paint washes? It'll be way cheaper than agrax & has some great flowing & drying properties
Very very nice ....
thank you so much again
Thanks!
Thanks
I saw most of these buildings in your Battle of Cielo Monteca and immediately fell in lust with them. I've put in a letter to Santa in hopes of seeing some of it under my Christmas tree. Did you order from the UK or do you have a US source? BTW, lovely to see another (but much more creative) 'lefty' at work. Your videos and games are a true joy and inspiration! Thanks!
Michael Gustar thanks Michael! I ordered them from UK. Shipping was a beast but worth it in the end.
Useful
Nice layout. Where is the play mat from?
The Sicily match from Geek Villain
can i ask what do u use to cut mdf? im wanting to start creating my own little cottages but can a Stanley knife cut through 3mm mdf?
I dont cut it myself. The kits come pre cut. It would take some work to cut yourself. I think they use lasers.
@@tabletopcp thanks im doin mine totally diy lol being an artist (mainly digital) trying to do something a bit more crafty!
do you do anything to the interiors of your buildings?
Not really. Some of them come with interiors. But most don’t I just leave them empty for functionality
ACW terrain, please!!!!!
Looks like the scale is 28mm which appears to be too small for me! I’m in 1:72 scale or about 20mm!
Yeah they are 28mm. 20mm is very cool. Gives you much more space
Many companies have a 20mm MDF range (Sarissa, for example) but I find they’re often grossly underscale and look better alongside 15mm figures. Am currently putting together some 28mm MDF Mediterranean buildings for my 20mm Italian Wars and Napoleonic armies - will be interesting to see how that looks!
