Hey thanks for your comment and for subscribing! Yeah with the huge amount of different paints I think it's important to specify in case you want to make something with the exact same result, but at the end it's just a guide, if you use slight different tones will work as well!
@Sahaak_Craft I've made a type of homemade static grass before and used that on a small set of tiles, and it looked amazing. But on my board, I used foam flocking, and it doesn't look bad by any means, but I was in a hurry to get it done, so when I see something that looks this good I have to appreciate it. 😊
@@waynewilson5220 That's so cool! What did you use for that homemade grass? I'm also thinking on making smaller tiles for modularity and to complement the city tiles I'm currently working on 😏
@Sahaak_Craft I used jute rope and cut it into small fibers, then when I got enough (or at least what I thought was enough), I put a little green paint in the cup and mixed it up really good then let it dry. When it was dry, I used a sifter to separate the clumps by rubbing it into it, letting it fall into a plate or bowl, and then I put it in a container to store it. And as a bonus, not all the rope was covered, leaving some of the brown ropes' original color, giving it a variety of colors, lol. It's a lot of preparation but it looks good when finished. Also, I applied it the same way you did. Bards craft did a really good video on how to do it.
If you want to make it more modular/storable, rather than going for a full table, I've started grabbing the 1' square plywood "canvas" things that some painters prefer for projects. They're, essentially, just a premade board section. For most things you can just do some minor things ontop for detail, though if you want a pond or similar, you can flip it over and infill the frame with foam and whatever else you want.
That's a great idea! Now I'm working on some modular city tiles and I'm using vinyl floor as a base (which are also 1' squares). It's working so nice, so probably in the future I will adapt the techniques I used on the video to make some modular wilderness as I loved that much those tiles that probably will become my main game system from now on!
@@Sahaak_Craft The vinyl floors are not a good idea on their own, they're to flexible without reinforcement to work well, so your things built on it tend to break off and the vinyl warps far to easily.
@@AzraelThanatos They are flexible, but it really hardens with PVA glue, and if you make double sided tiles it gets even harder. I've tested it out and it's working perfect. Of course there are a lot of options and if it not suits you that's great too, but I liked working with it 🙂🙂
Hi Karl! Not at all, as all the rocks are the same height and are enough to distribute all the weight. Also they keep the grass from touching the table directly when using the water side which is good for durability.
@@Karlmakesstuff I'm not going to lie, at first I didn't think about the issue, then discovered that rocks can act that way (they were already glued) so it was a happy mistake

Thanks for adding exact colours and brands. I find getting colour right is the hardest part for some reason. Subscribed!

This looks better than alot of others ive seen. Great job.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm happy about how it turned out! 😁

@@waynewilson5220 Seems like a great technique, also if it's just rope it would be pretty cheap which is always great! Thanks for sharing :)
Looks great I like all the colors
Thank you very much! 😁

The final efect is amazing!
Thank you so much!
Looks great :D
Thank you so much!
nice video, i liked the tip of using hot glue to make sligth elevations in the grass!
Thanks Alex! Yeah I wanted something smooth and hot glue is really good for that :)
Impresionante trabajo y muy bien resumido.
Muchísimas gracias!
Beautiful piece. I'm definitely going to have to up the relatively flat one I made. Looks shabby, next to this glorious one
Thanks mate! I'm sure your board isn't shabby, but having a new one won't hurt
It looks excellent! Question though, how do you use the water side now? Don't the rocks make it unstable?
Hi Karl! Not at all, as all the rocks are the same height and are enough to distribute all the weight. Also they keep the grass from touching the table directly when using the water side which is good for durability.
@Sahaak_Craft that's genius! Solves multiple problems in a really simple way.
@@Karlmakesstuff I'm not going to lie, at first I didn't think about the issue, then discovered that rocks can act that way (they were already glued) so it was a happy mistake
You dont have any warping problems? I have made similiar project but after coating with pva/paint it starts to warp
Not particularly, but the fact that is 2 sided, usually prevent the problem as PVA glue pulls to opposite directions
@ this is the way i solve it. But i use smaller playwood pieces. Great work by the way!
@@kubakuba5530 Thank you! 😄
Very nice video. Let me guess: native Spanish speaker?
Thank you very much! Yep you got me! It's not hard to tell 😂😂
@@Sahaak_Craft No, I think the "s" gives you away. Do you have a video about the ships you show at he beginning, while discussing the sea/lake board?
Oh yes, found it. Watching now :)
@@BlaueCookieFan Just for the bigger one, but I used more or less the same techniques, hope you enjoyed the video! 😁
