Other materials that could add texture/detail to the junk piles: -Beads (various sizes/shapes); good for spark plugs, tin cans, small wheels, or glued to other objects to simulate non-specific mechanical greeble -Dry Spaghetti; cut into various lengths for rebar/pipe, spent shell casings, door/hatch handles, etc. -Patterned scrapbook paper (come in many colors and patterns); glue it to sheets of cereal box card stock, then cut or rip off into old flooring or wall paneling (if you've ever replaced a floor or wall, you know how much of that gets sent to the dump; bonus points if it's some disgusting puke yellow color from the seventies) -Cereal card itself; cut into tiny squares and stack them like discarded floor/roof tiles; cut holes out of it to create window or door frames (bonus if you glue clear plastic on one side, preferably with pieces missing so it looks like broken glass) -Paper clips; coiled around a pen to create a spring, jutting from the mound like rebar, bent into shape of bicycle frame or post-modern chair -Sewing thread; glue down onto surfaces like tangled wire, or tied around objects like rope
Those are some good suggestions! Some jewelry bits and ornate beads would be nice to have on hand. I'd like to get some patterned crafting scissors so I can cut designs into any type of paper.
also chunks of old sprue. i've got some cheap fly swatters with handles that look exactly like i-beams and the swatting bit has a great grid texture on it (we use all parts of our prey like our forefathers did)
In my experience, baking soda bleeds through the paint and glue, creating a white-ish water stain on top of washes and other effects. I personally use fine sand.
Not being a DIY type person, what is the base material you use? Is it just expanding foam? I'd love to make something like this for my abandoned mining colony table for 40K.
For this one I used layers of foam board. If you have a jigsaw, 1/8in mdf or tempered hardboard is great too. The expanding foam probably wouldn't warp those, but I haven't tested that

Thats some good looking trash!
Thank you :)
Great video!
Thank you :)
The mod podge and ink oil spills are a fantastic idea. Nice build.
Thanks! It also helped hide the gap in the "pipe" :p

@@chrispowell2947 I'm gonna need to look out for some fly swatters like that.
@@chrispowell2947 This. I collect all little bits and pieces that drop down from forming pieces for terrain and vehicle parts into a ziplock bag.
They're phenomenally good!
Thanks!
Looks good, the overall effect is spot on.
Thanks!
These are glorious. Currently building wasteland terrain of my own.
Awesome! Thanks for watching
Looking great! Like your editing, also.
Thanks :)
Very cool mate. Love the look 😃👍🏼💚
Thank you :)
The claaaaamps
Wow, that's crazy cool! 😎
I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for watching
i love these projects, and your flourishes when showing off your bits! very silly

Love all of this 🙌🏼🖤
Thanks!
An excellent use of random bits. These trash piles are perfect! Subbed =)
Thanks man :)
This is disgusting yet very cool at the same time
That's it, you got my subscribe
Thanks! I appreciate the support!
Fun vid!
Thanks!
looks great for trash
When “your diorama looks like trash” gets taken as a compliment.
@@philipsimonds8088 haha
Awsome work
What Brand of paint and Brushes you use
Thanks! For terrain I usually use cheap craft paint and I don't really have a specific brand of brushes that I use.
Oooh I should make some of tgese
Do you ever use Milliput or something like it
Yea sometimes. I like air dry clay for terrain because it's cheaper

@@hauntswargaming thank you
Do you ever make your own Sculpting Tools
I tend to use whatever is lying around
Your video and content is awesome man!
But the music? God. It's awful.
Agree to disagree lol
