he ain't kidding about those woodland scenic shakers lasting. i bought one when i got started back in 06, and i STILL haven't used all of it. Also, mixed herb spice shakers make fantastic forest/jungle ground cover. smells like it too. (that's what we call 4D immersion)
Like a bob Ross of dnd set pieces.
"Just add some happy little cracks in the stone. Maybe there's one that lives right over here. Yeah, and let's give him a friend...."
Id love to see you do some "Angkor Wat" type ruins.... Trees grown through ancient walls and structures, it'd be a awesome area to have an adventure
I know this is not a new video, but I think it has my favourite piece of advice, "Do not be careful"
I like the tin foil ball method. Almost totally random and unique look every time you use it.
Sometimes the simplest solution is the best one.
True!
Super inspirational. will be buying a Proxxon hot wire cutter in a few weeks now. Hope they give you a nice kick back :-) Cant thank you enough for these videos. They have changed my DM style so much.
I really enjoy and appreciate that you take the time to show us how to craft these tiles. Thank you.
The close-up shots at the end were really cool, thanks
Always posting photos on facebook and patreon, a lot that don't make it to videos
Hey..... I only have so much money man and space for tools. I insist you stop making me want that wire cutter!
Great video and use of the tool. Super awesome way to break down some repetitive stuff (I hate repetitive tasks)
you got a 3d printer though, maybe you could print a proxxon table, lol
That wire cutter is pulling at my wallet as well.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial Yes, you could - just make sure to use a few longer 1/8"bolts to mount the wire (cheap nickel-chrome wire is available from different electronics stores). and the 12V supply from the 3D printer can be used to heat the wire. Control the temperature by making the wire longer or shorter is an easy trick.
I started in this way and made different cutters up to 30"long to cut pink foam in thinner plates.
you can make a hot wire cutter cheaply. Google it
Holy crap, these are the most beautiful tiles I've ever seen! Definitely going to pick up this hobby soon!
Interesting, sounds like a fractal approach to get the look of broken tiles. Great idea!
it's great that you have a video on very easy dungeon tiles and an other on advanced dungeon tiles. very scalable
Yea, once you got the basics down you can do all sorts of little variations
Just wow... I need to try this!
I've made dungeon and castle wall pieces with drop-ceiling tiles, which already have the texture, but I like the foam idea. I have a D&D campaign starting soon, and I wasn't planning on making terrain pieces, but now I think I might!
Glad I found your channel. Now I want to make some set pieces.
Great stuff. Nice change from dungeon tiles.
Running ToA and these will be perfect! Thanks!!
Fantastic video, as always!!
Every week, you come up with another must build item. I'm never going to catch up:) Really interested in also making a Mediterranean desert tile set.
Yea doing these and keeping them in a kind of desert style is on my list of things to do as well, but who knows when I'll get the chance.
Great video. I really appreciate the time that you put into this instructional video. You've made it very clear, step-by-step, which is exactly what I need in this type of craft video! Excellent! I am between projects right now, probably get going on some tiles this summer. Thx!
Thanks :)
if you want a desert tile after cutting the lines.(little deeper) coat with pva than fine sand. works great. washes will bring it out and thin modpoge mix won't take away.
I wanted to share with you a technique I tried. While the paint was wet with the paint/mod podge mixture I sprinkled salt. When it dried I sprayed the adhesive glue over it to secure the salt. It gave the piece a very cool texture and look.
Another great video! This could not of come at a better time as my PCs are about to stumble into the ancient shrine of a forest guardian! Time to get crafting! Thanks Jeremy!
Perfect!
getting my table thursday, can't wait.
Awesome, you wont regret it
Looks great. Great video... 👍
Just wanted to let you know that I made a set of these! I put magnets in them so they'll stick together better on the table! I'm going to be running Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan for my Tomb of Annihilation players in a few weeks, so these are perfect!
I actually really like that stone well shown at the end in the glamour shots. The little rope going into the nasty epoxy-water is excellent.
There’s probably a video about it 🙃
Another great video!! Thanks for all the awesome tutorials!
glad you like em
Awesome job! These came out really great
Thanks :)
Awesome tiles!
Hey man just started watching your videos and I for one love them! You do a kick ass job man, now for the proxxon bar I have had the same issues but a while back I had bought some mini C clamps from a hobby store and I use one at the end of that slider bar makes it a whole lot easier to control when doing cuts and jazz. Just thought I'd share that. Anyway keep up the good work Holmes!
I've never found it big enough of a problem to bother clamping, I like being able to very quickly adjust the fence
I love the regular releases, there's always an episode waiting for me when I get home from work Friday evening. The perfect start to the weekend :) thanks!
Yea, I spend pretty much every saturday strictly working on the video so it is ready for next friday. I think the consistency is really important.
Love it!
Buy this man a Tim Hortons double double. LOL. Great job on the tiles Jeremy.
you know me
Really neat!
To make really fine turf use a small coffee grinder and grind it to however course you want it to be.
Awesome video as always!
Thanks man
Ima set “this to two to test the temperature “.. thats a lot of t words hahahahaha
Epic labels behind you... Very Canadian.
Amazing videos! I'm not into gaming but I'm learning so much for mi dioramas.
really good one man well done
thanks dood
*heart eye emoji* My two favorite D&D CZcamsrs!
Those came out great!
They aren't exactly what I wanted, but doing stuff that is easy for people to replicate in a reasonable time is worth some compromise.
Great video again! Thanks man!
Cheers :)
Fenomeno! 😮🔝
This is my second time to watch and these video's are great, but in need to add two cents to this. You reset your T-square and measure each time. Please add a paper strip near the bottom next to the T-square that are marked for those places. Better yet if you are really into this take the T-square off and get your SS ruler and make a jig of two wooden square stock for the edges of your base plate. Cut slots in the stock to the measurements needed and just move your rules to the mated slots, each time, and you are there. Keep up the great work! Enjoy
Yet another excellent video!
thanks :)
Nice video! I like the plastic plants idea!
thanks :)
Really like your work.. your tutorial are great , Thank you
Great content as usual!
Thanks :)
Great vid, I also checked out your website and it's brilliant.
Thanks man....its a bit of a mess to be honest...webdesign ain't my strong point. Its a start
Transfer the turf to a larger round container like the wash container. You can then drop and tap right over the container.
looks great!
thanks :)
Effin sweet
thanks man
Thanks BMC.
Once again sir.. Epic!
thanks :)
looks great! would love to see more of the complete terrain on the end of the video
I'm confused....I showed photos three times, did you miss them? Or do you mean you just want to see more of those photos? If so go follow of facebook where I post pics more often, don't want to bog down videos with too many still shots.
Thanks, you're right i missed them on facebook. I just really enjoyed the stills you had on the ending of the video and wanted to see more of it in detail :)
Great job once again and thanks for the reply!
Awesome! Great job! Its a bit hard to fathom the synchronicity of it but I am actually building tiles for the 'Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan' module as we speak! Perfect timing on your tutelage. I guess I will have to go and max out your Patreon so I can have you design something for my next Greyhawk adventure! Desert of Desolation series perhaps?
Lol, I was really hoping someone was gearing up to run it as this video came out.
Great video!
Thanks :)
good work man!
thanks :)
The Shrine of George! Coming to a table near you!
Lol, I should write it.
Black Magic Craft you should! It would be a great 2 page adventure download for your website.
Красавчик!!! Спасибо! реально учусь у тебя чувак.Спасибо!
Im taking a trip to Lowes tomorrow to pick me up a buttload of foam, im gonna make my first set of tiles EVER very soon :D
awesome
If you buy a heat gun, it will expand those lines you cut and you can contoll the width of the line by how long you hold the heat gun on the tile. I have used this in form and many other materials.
I will try that
Dwarven Forge is great but this is going to save many many $$ :)
Always great instructions...
Am I the only one who sees Rasputin on the foam at 6:18?
Great videos!! Started watching about a week ago and can’t stop! Would it be beneficial to make a 1” jig that’s 3”‘s wide? Like a comb so you can just run these over each time?
Love ur channel mate! Been a subscriber for many weeks now, but still re-view a lot of ur vids!
BTW, is that as selection of Wychwood Brewery bottles I see up there on the shelf??! ;-D
it is! I really like their branding...more than the actual beer....beer is ok.
as always anther great video
thanks :)
Freaking brilliant.
Thanks :)
Nicely done. I could see having large man eating plants. small to large ferns, as a separate or detachable option. Oh, and 1 tip you might like better than watered down PVA. Try 1/2 Vodka in stead of water.
but then I would just drink the glue, I'm Ukrainian, I can't just have vodka lying around.
LOL...Well, I am mostly Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Native American, English, Italian, and Greek on my mother's side. And German, Russian, Danish, and French on my dad's. So, I'm basically a mutt with at least 3 pedigrees (titles which my family has held, which has been confirmed, but means nothing, considering neither I or my family live in the UK or Europe.)
WOW thanks 🌸
Theis is Amazing 👩🎨👩🔧🎆
i like to get some of my plants from the pet store. i dont now if you have them up there, but petsmart has a decent set of terrarium plants for five dollars or so. usually i just go for the $1 items and the clearance stuff.
Ive avoided pet store plants because the are usually expensive, but I'll try petsmart, we've got a bunch of those here.
Good video! I like your beer collection, I've had a few of those myself! btw, are you going to make an ice cave for a yeti?!!! XD
yeah. some look like wychwood brewery beers and ales, if so good taste!!
19:10 that noise in the background
My brother in law was talking a few years ago about how he wants a hot wire cutter for his Halloween Decorations, if I can get people in on it for a group gift for him we will definitely buy through your links! (And if I get the time and space to do terrain work I might get one for myself at some point.)
Hello, I just found your channel! Love the work you've done so far. I was wondering if you've thought about recording your D&D games? Or maybe you already do. Just a thought. Great stuff!
To do that properly requires a significant amount of time, expensive gear, and a crew....maybe one day.
Need to make grass tile sets
Great video as always!
Offtopic question: Sand sand sand; Where do you get your sand?
I've been to my local hardware and they're kinda small, all they have is Quickrete Concrete Mix and Quickrete "Sand / Topping Mix"; DM'scraft recommended Quickrete All Purpose but I can't seem to find it.
Anything online you'd recommend? Online shopping is easier for me; Small town.
Have you thought about buying a solder iron kit with a variety of tips. You can use the razor blade tip and you wouldn't have to follow up with the pen.
I definitely have, but never haven't gotten around to it.
nice.
quickie question for the acolytes.
can you buy those fiskers cutting boards in the UK..have only seen other makes..and in different colours.
I would like to buy from your site, but shipping kills me
Saya ingin belajar cara membuat diorama....ini bagus untuk belajar...
Another awesome video, Jeremy. I'm Jon Jay on your Patreon but just changed my name here on Google for business purposes. Also... just remembered to whitelist your channel! Way to go, dude! Keep it up!
I have no idea what whitelisting a channel even means, but I'll assume it's something good, lol.
Ah, it's something you can (politely) ask your audience to do for you. When you use AdBlock you can whitelist certain CZcams channels so their creators get ads shown (and $$$) from ads playing.
19:12 : you can hear Hankerin' Ferinale arriving on his Harley
lol
Just made the move from player to DM and have been binge watching Wyloch, Drunken & Dragons, DMScotty, DMInfo, and obviously your great vids. I'm sold on your style tiles and will be mass producing them but I had a question. How would one incorporate walls while using these tiles? I'm going to have a random maze style encounter, akin to Molok's Maze but with a swarming spiders, but that would require walls.
To be honest I don't have a great answer for this because I fundamentally don't believe in walls. I think they are an unnecessary item that interferes with game play. But others who also feel the need to use them have added them, essentially using wyloch's wall method. You could also switch the grid to a 1.25" one like he does, but make them out of foam like I do.
I'll try to think of a way to do it without walls. it would be nice not to have specialized tiles. you may have converted me to a wall denier.
That's the thing, walls really restrict a tile's usage. I play on a black game surface, and utilize the negative space to represent walls. I put little 2"x1" tiles with a door on it between tiles and this leaves a 1" negative space that is where the wall would be.
Excellent tutorial man! Just wondering if it is possible to create these without using a hot wire cutter? They are quite expensive, at least where I come from
Yup. A good knife and a straight edge will do just fine, only take a lot longer.
Excellent! cheers!
+1 for "Shrine of George" (y)
theHiddenStone +2
I should publish that module
I'd play it!
you enter the dark, damp room with ivory pillars on the sides.
you touch the shrine in the center of the room and the pillars light.
your hand passes over a name from an old language spelling George.
These are cool. Might use them when my players encounter some yanti.
Any chance you can make some sci-fi inspired terrain? For me I play tyranids and not sure how to make some for wargaming.
I know I'm like three years late on this (cut me some slack, I'm just getting into it all, haha)... would a 3d printed or maybe carved stamp work to imprint the brick pattern? Maybe a few variations so the pattern doesn't stand out. Could cut out what seems to be the most labor intensive part.
* * There’s a more recent video of his that has some neat brick/cobble pattern rolling pins - they do a pretty impressive job in next to no time at all!
Would you recommend making a bunch of small sized 3x3 to attach with magnets or bigger one 12x12 for 1:12 figures ?
50 shades of beige.
lol
Lindybeige!
**takes notes!**
Thanks for this.
Let me ask you, do you think this could work well for getting a more.... wintery look? Change the green flock for snow flock, and maybe dry brush some blue?
Totally, essentially same technique and you can use the woodland scenics snow for it
Thanks. I'll give it a try.
Awesome video man! :D Just a question: Where did you get all that black wash? :o Like, did you make it or...?
czcams.com/video/I5U7UFFuX-Q/video.html
So, how would you advise making some Dwarven inspired tiles/terrain?
hmmmm....that's a whole series of videos
This appears to be the site mentioned at 6:20 that has the larger fence, if anyone is interested.
www.shiftinglands.com/shop/18-hot-wire-cutter-add-on
Yup that is the one. Cheers
So when you make a "set" of tiles how many and what variations do you typically make?
The more I do this, the more I realize just having lots and lots of 3x3 tiles is best....as many as you can make. I like to have two 12x12 tiles as well to quickly drop big areas, and a handful of "hall" tiles that are 2x4, and some 1x2 tiles that exist to hold doors between tiles (creating negative space walls)
I think they look great but 2 or 3 of the ferns slightly next to eachother would make the ferns look better then just 1 by itself.
Okay to any of the hobbyist and other makes that do this sort of work. I am one wanting to get into this and other craft/prop works like this. BUT I have an idea for my computer desk pretty much making it look like a giant DnD Board/dungeon with maybe a tower in the corner some ruins and so on. My question is. Would it be better to make my wooden table top look grid like or to make tiles and piece it out and so on. the foam tiles wouldn't work well with my arms sitting on them using a mouse and keyboard would it? they would wear down and fall apart after a little bit. Can anyone give me an idea on how to do this?
👍👍👍
