      Yeah, this was a really good use of sprues. 😁
      Is there not a way to use liquid sprues and inject them instead of using the (colored) glue?
      I foresee a video from you where you make gaming tiles out of sprues, wither 3x3 inches or larger boards. I do wonder if the liquid sprues would warp at large pieces, like 12"x12" tiles?

    Wow, to be honest, watching the video I thought these looked really bad. Then you started throwing the green paint on that one piece and it really came to life. It truly looks like some sort of poured concrete bunker. I'm definitely making at least one of these for my guard.
    Thanks for another video!

    Gotta say, I really love the way the glue "pops out" of the frame, it makes it look like a piece of metal that's been melted and roughly flattened for the purpose of making a quick barrier.

      It also kind of looks like quick set concrete which was poured into a plywood mold, with the plywood later removed. You could paint the sprues up as metal and it would look like some kind of field-built fortification.

    I remember for my birthday my parents made loads of terrain for me; they made a fantasy style tower using a pringle tube, polystyrene to make a cave, hills and a mountain, they made a swamp/dead forest using cardboard in PVA glue as a base and the trees were made from wires twisted around into all sorts of shapes
    I had loads more but I barely remember because It must have been 10+ years ago that day 😂
    I hope you like some of them ideas and I would love to actually see the making process because I only saw the end result 😅

    Fantastic stuff. One thing I've always disliked about building terrain is getting a good foundation going that looks "right" and the waiting times between projects.
    Not here! This is going to be my new ideal way to make quick scatter terrain! I'll probably keep the bumps on the sprues so I can glue with them facing down and get that great "steel paneling" look. Also for added texture I think gesso will do the trick.
    Thanks a lot!

    Your rotary tool blade probably heated up the glue via friction and remelted it as you tried to cut it, making your blade all gummed up and not cut. Just my opinion on why that happened.

    Can buy nice big sheets of it, and it gives you a lot more control over what you make as it's more versatile, modelers have been using it for years along with High Density Foam, or thick cardboard before that.
    Not to be a downer or anything, this is neat and creative, could be fun for a one off or something, but plasticard really seems like it would be a better alternative with higher ceiling of what you can create.

    @Forestgremlin456 Před 2 lety

    Are the black glue sticks any better than normal ones? Normal hot glue is a bit of a pain to paint, though primer and maybe sanding usually sorts that out. Anyway I bring this up because dealz (I believe it's Poundland in the UK) sometimes has packs of 32 glue sticks for €1.50 (what that is in GBP I don't know but I think it's a bit less than you're paying currently!)
    Really enjoy this idea though my inner miser insists it's shocking wasteful. Might try it with some cardboard or sprue shavings to save on hot glue. I know, I'm a chronic hoarder.
