Hope Brutal Cities can continue making terrain. When they announced that they may be closing up shop I was not able to make an order due to budgeting. The terrain I currently have for Infinity are amazing!
Glad to hear you love what you have! I will have a little bit more in stock soon of some kits at least, will let subscribers know soon (but I might wait a bit, I need a holiday lol)
@brutalcities Will definitely check back on the kits availability! Would love to get a chance to add a few more for the table!
@@brutalcities hi there, having seen your stuff for the first time, i gotta say this si amazing stuff an dI am totally fed up with the usual "grim dark" asthetics. it should be entirely possibly to "gothify" lots of these building on demand.
considering most stuff is sold out, will you consider selling the building files at some point?
having mdf cutters is getting more popular and it would also solve the difficult shipping from Australia to EUR for example!
I hope Ryan will work out something for the future so we can keep getting this good stuff :)
I'm so happy to see someone else painting their terrain in more colours than just grey and brown! Drab industrial schemes have their place, but we shouldn't feel limited to always use them.
I agree Mr Sweeney, thanks! 🙏
I agree. I’ve found that cheap tester pots of house paint are very good.
Entertaining script and gorgeous vid as always Alex! I am going to have to beg to send you one more kit in the future because you mentioned you regretted not doing pink pastel; I think you will really like the work of Architectural photographer Veronika Dudka - she edits a bunch of her photos to make either the sky or the brutalist subjects pastel pink and it’s the best look. I’ll have to buy a print someday!
The dot filter is soemthing new to me, I look forward to try it!
One more thing you could add (which will take all of 5 mins and can be done anytime you have a min- if you do a really really heavy oil wash on the flat surfaces AFTER you varnish, the organic pooling effect as the oil and solvents glide over the varnish creates the best natural weathering effects and would suit the tropical vibe (moss/water pooling stains etc)
Thanks again for sharing this great project!
And P.S. almost all products are out of stock now, but I will have a limited run soon and email subscribers when they are back in stock. Still have to work out what Brutal Cities will look like but I’m a little bit over working by myself so I’ll find another job and do this on the side. Maybe a company in the US/EU/UK can make and ship the kits for me, who knows!
Thanks Ryan! And yes, pink would have been awesome. I was as well thinking at first to do one or two sides of the buildings in different colours. That plan kind of died when the priming escalated. But that’s a cool plan for the future. It might look quite like some of those photos.
This terrain looks great! enjoy your well deserved vacation! I hope you can find something that works, whether it's cutting on demand a batch or two a year, or making what you want and selling through a limited stock
idk, maybe selling the plans for end users to laser cut themselves, or selling licensed files so people with cutters can sell them on Etsy or similar places
@@Crushanator1 thanks! Yeah there will be a way once I have a sec to think - still getting through the final orders before the move next week :D
Sorry to hear about your store winding down. You kits have always looked amazing! I for one am extremely interested if you decide to sell stl versions of your work. It looks like it would print very well (and would be a more accessible price point for us with printers).
Tropical grimdark isn’t the genre of miniature game I didn’t know I needed until now. I hope Brutal Cities sticks around, I have some of these kits and they are really great.
Tropical is the new grey :) I know Brutal Cities is temporarily shutting down because of having to move location. My bet it’s going to be better in the end, hopefully Ryan can get some companies in Europe / Us to do the cutting and distributing for him and we can get the stuff without the excessive shipping costs.
@@52Miniatures It is a novel take on grim-dark, for sure. I guess that there is history for this genre; like "Heart of Darkness".
@@euansmith3699 That's a good one!
I love these, they've got such a Disco Elysium vibe. And now I want to build a diorama of the Whirling-in-Rags...
Hardcore!
Such colours, so Cyberpunk, definately a city where mirrorshades are compulsory. I could happilly get lost your Tropical Grim Dark. I can imagine the rabbithole of possibity sparking layers of ideas, furishing the interiors, adding a couple of vehicles, some holoscreens, neon signs, some scatter terrain like bags of refuse, a datahub, discarded bot, comm kiosk, bus stop shelter, and a handful of concrete planters, perhaps hot pink bins here and there .. conjours up a lot of ideas for add ons. Lovely work, I hope you make time to enjoy playing with it.
I love the effect. Looks like grim dark Sweden Ikea town or possibly something from Firefly or certain medieval worlds like on Stargate. Cheers and thanks for the content.
Thanks C! It does indeed look like the grimdark kids section at ikea. The post apocalypse no one can figure out how to assemble.
@@52Miniatures Allenkeytown!
You probably captured why I love watching videos on big projects. Vicariously enjoying something I'd be far too overwhelmed to try myself.
I love the color choices. The pastels make me think 60s or 70s which feels right for more colorful scifi
My issue is I have to live through them 😂
It may be time consuming, but I find it not so stressful process to weather these buildings.
You've said something that made me realize, that there is no objectively "done" project. It is always "I consider it done" and that is the beauty of the hobby - even the finish is up to us! We can consider something done only half way in, and it is done for us, no questions asked (who would ask anyway). But there are projects, that are always live, and we add to them, cause we feel like it. The freedom!
Betongbrutalism + Miniature Terrain = Vad jag alltid önskat mig!
Same 😂
Eller hur! :)
Very dystopian clock work orange feel of architecture mixed with a very 60’s style colour scheme!!
Great work and thank you for showing the “mistake’s” so many youtubers presenting these false look at me I’m amazing videos!!
Its nice to see some one say hey I’m no different then you and i make mistakes too!!!
And then showing us how to persevere and get it complete!!
Inspiring and endearing thank you for a great video!! 😊
Thanks Martyn, I really do appreciate it. I have always just wanted to share my hobby journey and not appear like anything more than I am.
Cold daiquiris, hive scum carnivals, Pineapple rations and tropical camouflaged lasguns? sounds like quite the party. A necromunda players dream come true.
love BC Terrain and what you have done with his kits. i tend to throw lots of salad on mine and use them mainly for The Drowned Earth 🦖
at first I was like "wth are these colours" then I was all "oh ok that really REALLY works"
Hah! Thanks P
Really hope Brutal Cites restocks their store. Most of their interesting stuff is out of stock.
Ryan has been forced to move from where he runs his business. So he can’t cut any more stuff. I believe he’s looking into future solutions 👍
The variety of colours adds to the depth of your board too. Grey after grey after grey can feel very boring to look at whilst a selection of colours definitely draws your eyes to specific buildings. Great stuff!
I can see in some situations that a dull board can bring the models out - if the models are colour full. But I’d rather just go with as much colour as possible all over the place.
YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!
(No, I agree, colour is a great thing!) Kind of sad how the world is actually losing colour due to people wanting maximum resale value from property, instead of just using colours they actually like.
@@brutalcities I got the kitchen cupboard doors repainted a while back, I picked a rusty orange red inspired by an old worn all red and turquoise kitchen I hung out in, in Chile. The reply from the firm doing the painting said "no one's ever picked that colour before".
@@52Miniatures hahah I want to see it on your cupboards, how did they turn out?
El Presidente would approve - and I do as well!
Nice job and thank you for introducing me (or us) to such a varienty of weathering techniques.
I hope he would! Now I just need a beard like him :) Thanks Bea!
I had to deal with the hydrophobic effect with a particular brand, rather than weather, I can empathise. I really like the colours chosen, and the brickwork does make the mdf pop better; but the scripting and the beautiful filming, especially the spraying scenes, really made this a great video - even your sponsor ads are cool Thanks for the show.
Thank you. I did consider this… but I have used some of these cans in the past and it was okay. But I’m wondering if it was a combination.
Pineapple Camo is my new band name.
It’s got a bit more of a joyful vibe than Napalm Death. I’m going for the alluring Dark Daiquiri. Good to see you man.
You videos are like watching a good book. And, perfect timing as I just received some MDF terrain to assemble and paint. Thanks Alex!!!
Great stuff! What mdf are you working on?
I got a set of terrain from Tabletop Stronghold w the purchases of one of their cases that I’m about to build and spruce up with paint and stuff. Btw, it’s my second case from them and they are pretty great.
Fantastic work, Alex!
You've inspired me to change up my hobby routine.
Tropical Grim Dark brings to mind the Ghost in the Shell series setting.
Thank you for demonstrating those ingenious new (to me) weathering methods, as well.
Cheers!
Awesome! Thanks Kchees!
These buildings came out super cool and you can really get a nice tropical feel from them. The only other thing I could think to add would be some foliage, maybe something like creeper vines on some of the walls.
Yes! I agree. Unfortunately I have a weird thing against flock and foliage. But for someone without this issue it’s a great way to get some growth going
Brutal cities just makes incredible kits
Thanks so much!
Indeed!
Looks like the set of a Wes Anderson movie. Love it
Fantastic video and excellent weathering advice; thank you for this! I had the pleasure of interviewing Ryan earlier this year, he's a great guy!
Thanks! And yes, he is indeed great 👍
That colour scheme makes it look especially tropical
I love that I’m not the only person to forget the word for ‘awning’ you’re the best Alex, the Van Gogh of this hobby, minus the mental illness.
Well thank you Joe. My ear is still quite intact
That "Dot Filtering" technique made me so excited. The effect that we use in the illustrative scene is called a "Hue Shift", and using them subtly tells the brain that there is more visual interest in the piece than a simple gradient can achieve alone! We see those as 'more realistic' because in skin, in materials, in anything that exists in the world, there is so much light bouncing around and off of ambient environments that the actual hue of any part of a surface can change bit from bit.
This is an amazing way to get those hue shifts really quickly. The entire village looks awesome! This is a lovely base for anything else you want to do with the board, ad it should be easier to do things with it from this point onward!
Yeah, I adore Dot Filtering. It does just what you describe. I’ve used it in the past on vehicles as well and it’s great. Especially for the hue shifts you describe. There is not a distinct visual effect, just a sense of realism.
I really want to try it
The color palette and variety of building materials really reminds me of the planet Ferrix from the Andor TV show,
I really like the color palette you used for this.
“Passed out on the couch after an overdose of chocolate ice cream.”
Okay when did you hack the spy software into my webcam????😉. As usual, an amazing visual journey with an informative and engaging script. The multiple weathering techniques really came together well notwithstanding the “hydrophobic walls”. The color zoom in at the end was amazingly. Great work again Alex. 👍👍
Thank you Mark! Oh there's no spyware in your webcam, I'm just psychic :) Hope you are well Mark, good work on the D-Day diorama.
i love these pastels. I think itd also look quite nice for the Star wars terrain, the stuff thats vaguely tattooine looking
Ever thought about making a podcast or something like that?
You have such a calming voice and it kind of clears my brain of unnecessary things. And every one of your videos is so inspiring that I stood up after this one and had to realize there was no terrain to paint.
So please more of that to listen to.
Thanks! Making the videos take up all my time I'm afraid.
@52Miniatures keep up your good work then👍, no need for further stress.
Lovely, sir! Lovely. It also warms my heart to see another fellow Swede in this great hobby.
Thank you kindly!
The buildings look really good. Glad you found a way to finish 😊
Thanks! 😊
@@52Miniatures you are welcome 🤗
Loooove the color scheme. Terrain is a great place to try out all kinds of weathing techniques before you move to using them on your minis.
Definitely! Thanks B
Oh heck yeah! The end results look great, and I always adore it when folks push the boundaries of standard sci-fi scenery with bold colours. In times and spaces where things are awful, people finding spaces filled with some joy is even more important, y'know?
Thanks man! Hope you are well. Yeah, also we base so many fantasy / sci-fi cultures on western culture. But just because we are boring and hardly ever paint buildings in vibrant colours…. well that’s a bit of cultural colonialism right there
Gorgeous film making. 😊
Thank you M! 🙏
I know you're going to do more to these & I can't wait to see how you use them on a tabletop. Oh, & in terms of length of video, personally I prefer to longer videos, I find them much more satisfying & the level of detail you can put in makes the process much more understandable.
Thanks Man! this really did turn into a long one but they all seem to be doing that at the moment.
This speaks to me! Inspiring work as always Alex.
I'm in love with tropical grim dark!
Great to hear 🙏
Legit, your videos are always such a treat to watch Alex. Love your humour/educational content. Amazingggg
Glad you think so C 🙏
The writing is really cool.
Yeah, I really love Alex's scripts.
Completely agree with you on the quality of what Brutal Cities produces and Ryan specifically. Met him at a convention in Australia this year, and just had to get a few buildings, because they looked so good. I weathered mine up a lot more, though.
Indeed a prime example of hobby greats :)
Thanks for the kind words, I enjoyed meeting people at Cancon, but as my first big convention, I will say I've never been as exhausted in my life hah!
I need to go again next year. Glad you love the terrain.
Thank you Alex 🎉
Great narrative video Alex, thanks for turning MDF into something with a swampy soul, worth dying in.
Hah! Thanks Mick! Probably a tropical related death.
I so love this table architecture, that tower is terrain second only to a big tree I saw once on a railway layout that it turned out took four days to make - the tree, not the layout
Who else but Alex would include the authentic hobby journey through a bad priming session that blights the whole experience and fights you all the way. I love you for it m8, even I would have gone the matt varnish route and likely drawn a discreet veil over my mistake.
But then who among us hasn't had a rattlecan priming disaster? It's right up there with agrax going absolutely everywhere, or slicing your digit to the bone cutting off a sprue nubbin when you knew you should go get the clippers but instead sacrificed several ounces of blood to the god of not getting up off the chair.
Gives my wife a laugh at least - not the agrax! she has absolutely no sense of humour about that stuff any more and sensibly believes I've sensibly binned the last pot....
Loved your touch with dot filtering ever since the goblin mechanised artillery vid, those buildings look amazing en masse, loads of techniques showcased, job done.
((did anyone ever film a dark moody rattlecanning that looked half as athmospheric?? Cinematographer gets a gold star with oakleaves)) ((again))
Thanks you humbly Phil! Drops of blood will be spilled in your honor
They look fantastic. You make an important point that we should expand beyond the standard grey and brown paint schemes. I will make an effort to push myself to use other colours
Thanks! It’s a slow transition but every time I add more colour I just think it looks better on the table. Both minis and terrain.
The layout looks great on the table-top.
Thanks man! Hope all is well
Inspiring colours, feels perfect for 5 Parsecs From Home! I really like your fantasy interpretations too, very creative.
Thanks Salt! 🙏
Your videos are feel good stuff. Beautiful, intelligent, fun, usefull.
I appreciate it greatly!
That's gorgeous! I can smell the roast roach, and pineapple pizza already
I listened to this while building my necromunda board. Its my first time putting this board together...this would be fine for other videos, but your rewuire more attention. So im going to watch it again. Thanks alex it sounded cool😅
Thanks Gary! Sounds like a fun project!
Dear Alex, another feast for the eyes you have shared with us. May I suggest when splitting the themes for terrain its all about stick on ‘bits and bobs’ for example vines or pipes and wires, wooden beams and structures or ductwork. Magnets are very attractive for this purpose. With love and respect from Iowa USA.
Magnets is a splendid idea!
These look really good!
Perfect for 5 Parsecs from Home, Stargrave, OPR Grimdark Future Firefight, Infinity the game, CY_BORG KillSampleProcess, or any one of the other amazing games that are well-designed!
If you want to add some pink detailing (lime green would also be really nice), in Bill Making Stuff’s last video he used washi tape covered with matte Modge Podge to add hazard stripes - you could use the same technique to run a pink stripe along the bottom of a building to imply a differently-painted foundation, for instance.
That was indeed the plan from the start, adding colored details but the detailed priming cut that out of the schedule
love the colour scheme. I think hot pink would look good maybe as markings on some of the buildings? super cool work. and yes, Brutal Ryan is a Genius
Yeah, some more details like that would have been nice. Or even doing different colours on different sides of the buildings.
Tropical grimdark! That is brilliant.
Thank you for motivating me to continue and finish my own pieces of terrain, not béased on MDF, but rather on toys (castle and military bases), because making something mixing Medieval fantasy and an urban battlefield is also what I am doing, only with less extravagant idea... I should steal a bit from you!
Steal as much as possible! Thanks K!
@@52Miniatures Ha ha ha, thank you. Anyway, this video, shouwing the wide range of techniques and materials is really something that I can relay on, as I am not attached to one technique or one brand in particular, I just aim for a nice result. On this, our approaches are similar, rthat's why I very enjoy your channel.
Please do continue!
@@klug5916 thanks K!
Nice. I am with you. I use yellow for large industrial terrain structures like large cranes, red and green. Good stuff.
Yeah! Colour is just great on the table
Great to see you back.
👋 was I away? :)
I do really love those pastel shades. It shows there's shades other than grey or khaki that can also work for wargames terrain. I sometimes find that hydrophobic effect happening with "normal" primers - it is very upsetting and would be worse on larger structures. "Done is better than perfect" via an allegory of the war of the ring is fitting, somehow.
The people's grimdark, pass the (collectivised) dirty down, comrade...
I felt rather out of my comfort zone at first. Now I wish I’d gone all in with some more colours. The weathering brings everything together
For what it's worth Alex, I had the same issue with these spray paints on terrain in perfect spraying weather a few years ago. I won't use them again. I had a look online and it was clear that I wasn't the only one who had experienced this. So I don't blame yourself
The little bobbles I mean
Thanks Dan. I have used them at some point and it was fine, but I think it was only black and grey… I don’t know if the range is different from colour to colour. But yeah, I’ll be trying out a few different brands next time
Looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
10/10 best segue into the sponsored bits
Hah, thanks 🙏
Great video and very spooky as i was talking to a mate about about using MDF scenery in our kill team games. So thanks for helping me out there with hints and tips. And Alex odourless white spirit is the way to go for oil washes you cant go wrong , Windsor and Newton make one and there are many others to choose from.
Odorless is indeed the way to go, but I needed so much of it so it felt wasteful on that expensive W&N stuff. And just because it’s odorless doesn’t mean it’s not releasing fumes (they just don’t smell) so I’d still have to mask up.
A nice little terrain set! I also struggle with overly ambitious visions that I don't manage to bring alive, but I hope you're still making progress on your A War Transformed table!
The table is definitely getting done. I’ve had to do a little pause (but the recent lighthouse video is for the table) and the plan is to pick it up after summer.
Tropical Grim Dark needs to be a thing!!! great video :)
Seconded!
Absolutely! It really does get rather stale battling over rubble all the time.
Now; battling for possession of a fully operational industrial sector without the need to destroy everything in sight (in the narrative) seems refreshing.
Ah nice, originaly subscribed after the first Brutal City video to see where this project would go. Glad to see it continued.
I’m glad you got a bit of a conclusion. Sometimes I feel a bit all over the place. Starting projects and sharing them on the channel to then not getting to finish them. So it felt good to do this even though I would have liked to have given each building a bit more love.
@@52Miniatures As a project jumper I know that feeling. At a certain point it just feels great to have it finished. One can always come back when inspiration strikes but I honestly try to find a good enough point for me. Would love to see the concept expanded upon though. Perhaps a few toxic palm trees, a bit of 80s movie drug ridden miami turned up to 11 scatter terrain... There are a lot of possibilities. Great to see someone going a different route than just "grey destroyed building".
@@3picdermis223 Yeah some nice scatter terrain to go with this would be awesome.
Wonderful video with lots of tips! I DO have an airbrush, but in my current state it's difficult to use. Oddly, I just discovered the "dry brush" effect you described on my most recent project and did the entire thing with just a cheap makeup brush and unthinned acrylic paint and it looks AMAZING! Exactly how you described it; it looks like it's been airbrushed. I didn't mask anything so there was "overspray", but going back and forth with different colors gave me such an amazing result I almost just want to paint everything this way now!
It’s a great tool to use on flat surfaces like this and with a little experimentation not difficult 👍
Really enjoyed this and got me thinking about the colours I use on my terrain
Great to hear E, thanks 🙏
The brickwork reminds me of the town from Andor tv series. Futuristic but also dated. It’s a cool look
Thanks Black!
Beautiful terrain and a lovely video!
Many thanks!
Great video as ways! Thanks for the content. Have you ever made the FDM printed brick texture available for download? It’s really a brilliant idea
I agree, would save me from cutting thousands of bricks out of foam!!!
Ooo.. I’ll look into that! I should be able to just put it up on my website as a free download
This looks great! Color scheme but also the architecture. Would love to play on that table
Thanks M!
I might steal the tropical sci fi city for my games. Thus would make a good alternate setting for my 40k battles. As much as building medieval terrain would be cool for 40k or steampunk stuff, I love the tropics.
Sounds great!
Great stuff as always!
Thank you Lee!
I think, because of the pastel colours and some of the shots, I occasionally felt like I was watching a Wes Anderson film :D
Grimdark Wes 😂 Thanks Z!
@@52Miniatures You KNOW that's a future video idea.
These look great, super cool colour choices. I saw ur dioramas irl at Alphaspel this weekend, so crazy to see in real life.
I’m glad you got to see them!
For some reason your power plant building reminded me of the incinerator building in Copenhagen. Minus the ski slope of course.
I mean… it melted in the tropical heat..
The colors remind me of the docks around the Bahamas. Or st Petersburg russia old town houses.
i love priming with my airbrush, any day, night of the year it works
ps love the videos dude
Oh definitely! Had I done a building at a time that would definitely have been a way to go.
Alex, thanks for another satisfying video. The color palette you selected for the city-scape is quite enjoyable, and the applied weathering is phenomenal.
I appreciate your use of weathering pencils - they were unknown to me (beyond an earlier example when a person used a standard graphite pencil to apply a metallic edging to models where the addition of the tone would be appropriate). I have a phobia of the spirits required for oils - and therefor refrain from either - but the pencils are a welcome revelation.
One adverse comment, and strictly my opinion: please do not pursue your thought to make these buildings "dual-use" - they are utterly unconvincing as anything other than modern or hyper-modern. Just my 2 cents, delivered in the friendliest manner. 🙂
Thanks Scott! I’m glad to hear the pencils might come in handy for you. Regarding the terrain I’m a firm believer in context. So put the “wizards tower” in among some fantasy style scatter terrain and a “Tudor” house or two and I think it definitely serves purpose :)
Bloody good video and environment concept!
Thank you Ashley
Love the video! Reminds me to go finish my mass of Necromunda terrain that's been staring at me since lockdown 😬
Thanks K!
I LOVE this!!!
Thanks!
awesome build!
Thanks!
Incredible work
Thank you
An excellent video as always! So happy to see you get back to this project and push forward. I really like the brick texture sheets you came up with. It's an excellent way to add some texture to mdf kits. Have you uploaded them anywhere for download? Or are you planning on selling the stls? I would totally pay to print my own instead of having to buy expensive styrene sheets from the store.
Reminds me of a shadowrun campaign set in Miami!
Very ambitious and creative 🙂 They came out looking great. I hope to see how you further customize them in future, if you decide that's something you want to do 😁
Thanks again Alex. Another excellent video. 🏰🚀🌴🍹🧟♂️
Thanks as always good sir :) 🙏
I particularly like the dot filtering method, I’ll give that a try. I wonder if odour free brush cleaner would work as well as white spirit.
EPIC!
Thanks!
I love the ruined OCP building. OK so the ruin is behind the OCP headquarters, that could be a very fun mod for that kit just add a bunch of extra office building floors. Also what about using a soft round brush rather than a flat brush for the dot filtering?
I’ve found a flat brush works best for me, but please try for yourself and see what you like best.
Nice work á always 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Such inspiring work!
I love the colours that you’ve used
I was wondering which rattle can brand and colours you used?
Tack Alex!
Good stuff, as always, even if we had to wait three years for it! :)
You can imagine the relief over here. The joy of walking past painted buildings instead of haunting brown mdf
this is very cool and could have been even better if you made it less holiday resort like but more like a hive city. darker colours, more neon signs etc. would have worked great too. i love your video style and everything you do really - kudos.
PS: should have put a link to the mdf terrain shop - thats some crazy nice stuff
Thanks Bora. I will ad his website to the description, good idea.
This terrain is also great for Infinity. Probably better, even.
Yes, Ryan the designer plays a lot of Infinity
@@52Miniatures maybe you should give it a try and make videos about it. Hint hint.
If you like piña coladas, and getting caught in the acid rain..
Hah!
I would love to see these done in the style of Chris Foss or Peter Elson. I think that would add a lot of visual interest to them. What you have here looks great, though. I like how it's pastel brutalism. Quite the contrast of color and style.
I think we could take more inspiration from sci-fi artists outside of the hobby niche. Some of my favorites are Chris Foss, Peter Elson, John Berkey, John Harris, Rob Cunningham, and Ralph McQuarrie. For that matter, we could take more inspiration from artists that don't do sci-fi at all.
Just my two cents.
Indeed! As well as take inspiration from other cultures than Western Culture.
@@52Miniatures Also true. :)
