    I literally just painted my first rubber battle mat and wondered how I could make some quick ruins... The timing is amazing. Edit: Yup, definitely going to make these!

    as someone who's toddler is quickly pulling apart all his papercraft buildings, the idea of rugged/fast/cheap terrain speaks to me on a spiritual level
    great video, jeremy!

      I would put those away from the child. Their actions are not justifiable just because they're a toddler. Show him, who's the boss

      pro tip buy your toddler a ton of wooden blocks. In 2 years you're going to have a bunch of wooden blocks to add to your terrain.

      I found out if you do this with the paper left on, you can pull it off after and you are left with a rubberized piece of paper you can wrap around cylindrical shapes. Wizard tower bricks!

    So simple! Slapping on any extras can also adjust it to any theme! Little "metal" bits turns it modern like rebar sticking out, or even adding fake plants up the sides makes it look like forgotten ruins in a jungle or woods. Such an easy idea with so many uses

    3 layers of foamcore is a neat idea. Normally I’d reach for a single sheet of insulating foam, but I found some old foamcore in the garage covered in dust and spider poop that can’t be used for much else, so this is a timely video.

  • @ianshaliczer
    @ianshaliczer 11 місяців тому +2

    Taking a few extra minutes to push some cut up paper clips as “rebar” and maybe cutting a doorway or two into some of the walls would really push this over the top without much extra effort.

  • @BIGREDRoyalBear
    @BIGREDRoyalBear 11 місяців тому +10

    Could you do a full ruin castle in the foamcore and caulking? Maybe using a wire brush for a drawbridge! This video has my gears turning 😆

    • @willmfrank
      @willmfrank 11 місяців тому +1

      Yes! You certainly can. If, however, it becomes too big to support itself, you may have to brace it with a wooden frame; Use a variety pack of square wooden dowels (available from the craft aisle at Dollarama or whatever your local equivalent is) rather than balsa -- the dowels are stronger and more durable, and the variety pack has several different sizes that will serve different purposes.

    I was scrolling through my UA-cam subscriptions yesterday night and I was wondering if you were okay. Of course less than 12 hours later you upload this.
    Hope you enjoyed your family vacation. Well deserved. I may have to bang out some ruins fast and easy and this is a perfect solution (since I have everything for it lol).
    I would love to see more scatter terrain projects. Your Idols, Swamp and Campsite terrain inspired me and I would love to see another take on that.

    The layering makes such an awesome, realistic look for the walls!!! And I’m sure that technique would work great for EVA as well, even though it’d definitely be way pricier than the foamcore.

    I needed this. I've been wracking my brains on how to make some desert adobe type ruins in the middle of a desert and was really coming a cropper. Plus the double-layering was great and solves warping.

    @JacopoSkydweller 11 місяців тому +1

    LOVE this build. It's so simple. I don't build much terrain because of the time investment and seemingly not having the right tools to get a good time investment/results ratio, but this is SO doable with what I have. Thanks dude.
    For anybody thinking about the sponsor: Into the AM shirts are dope. I'm 6'6", 220 lbs, athletic build, I wear their large size. They're super comfortable and have great artwork. They shrunk somewhat lengthwise to be on the shorter side for me, but not too short. They also make your arms and shoulders look hella good if you lift at all. Highly recommend, worth every penny.

    Having modular ruined walls is a must for any war game. These look like they could easily fit into fantasy, modern, or grim dark future.
    I also liked that you used scrap foam board from painting projects.
