- Kicking off a bit of a mini-series today with a table full of trees and rocks! 💥More below!⬇
In preparation for playing the first solo scenario of The Silver Bayonet, I need to make a table full of scatter terrain. So I’m going to make this stuff as fast as possible, which turns out to be … not as fast as I thought it’d be. But the end results are pretty decent!

"To get somewhere, you gotta start walking, even if it's in the wrong direction."
Dude. Your very own inspirational quote. I am speechless at its simplicity.
Well dang, lol. Maybe that should be a shirt.
@@tabletopalchemy That is a damn good Idea!
“Look out! I’m a daredevil.”
A good pile of materials and a determination to work fast and loose is totally a plan.
I’ll take that as a vote of confidence lol 🍻
I did a bunch of trees last weekend and used hefty poker chips for the bases. Stable, modular, love them. Yeah, I’m a Maverick.
Ah nice idea! Hot glue to the bases?
"I don't have a plan, but i do have a bunch of sticks". Nice that is my crafting phylosophy too
😂🍻
Awesome video with an absolute plethora of terrain tips. I believe that the more carefree you are the more organic the terrain looks. Brilliant stuff.
Awesome glad u dug it! 🍻
Found this channel a couple weeks ago while looking for silver bayonet content. It has been my new favorite channel ever since.
Oh awesome, super glad you dig it! Working on my second SB battle report right now in fact! 🏴☠️⚔️🍻
11:44
_ROWAN!!!_
😂🐈⬛🏴☠️
“I just really enjoy flocking greenery over chunks of stone!” 😅😅
😈 Coming from a place that’s just sand and rocks lol!
Watching in wonder from a real forest. Ro Ro kitty rocks! ❤
Real forest #jealous!
@@tabletopalchemy Come for a visit next time you are in the UK. We would love to show you around our highland castles, lochs and forests. Rowan would feel at home with our Scottish wildcats.
Oh boy, putting the Witchbane on a plane … that’ll be an adventure for sure 😂
You should give Anthems of War a peek. Fantasy, mini agnostic skirmish game. Might be able to use a lot of the same terrain!
All right I’ll check it out asap! Thanks! 🍻
Flocking around with terrain is always fun.
Lol, yes it is 🏴☠️
The finger snap as a link referral really works. There you go. Though selling a sticker of that will be a little tricky.
Lol I kinda had the same thought 🍻
Your speedcrafting looks way better than a lot of stuff out there. Keep speeding. And 👍 on your black kitty!
Well thanks! 🍻 (and Rowan Witchbane acknowledges your thumbs up with a lazy stare 😈)
Always a pleasure to watch your unique style of hobby exploration.
Much appreciated! 🍻
Wow, I learned so much just now watching all this. Thank you. I'll need to watch this a couple/few more times to pull out all these actionable techniques that will help me fill in my space nicely. Thanks for the demo, thanks for the inspiration, thanks for cutting to the chase. I have been grappling with how I'll balance fixed base terrain [aka: diorama ] vs. movable dynamic terrain [gaming table] because I desire my basement space to be both. This session has both supported my tendency for a more dynamic space, and helped me understand why I was heading that way to begin with.
Awesome! Glad you found some value in my ramblings lol 🍻
I feel that last comment in my soul. You spend hours working on a set of terrain pieces and when you finally kay them out you think "I could have done with like...50% more"
I have to say too, your rocks, which I know you said youre not too happy with, are astounding. Forget realism, you want rocks that are fun to game on! If we eere in the hobby purely for realism we'd be building model railroads 😅
lol a friend of mine expressed the exact same sentiment regarding model railroaders 😂🍻
@@tabletopalchemy As a model railroader, yep, that's accurate. As a tabletop wargamer, (SWL) I also concur, your rocks look great and will work well for line of sight blocking, etc.. But that bridge piece......I have bad memories of a match where my opponent agonized over LOS through the arch, then judges came over to chime in on it, and 15 minutes later, we decided it didn't matter and I took the wounds anyway. Sigh.
Lol I could see that happening. Well, sometimes creative “in the now” thinking trumps “planning ahead” thinking … 😈
I'm a glass and metal artist... You've inspired me to make a glass forest. The only problem is this is going to take some time. ;)
Whoa! That will be incredible to see! Put the time in, energy in = exponential energy out!
Lester Bursley.... that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. I miss his videos, I hope he is doing alright. Great quick terrain!
Yeah lol I had to look his old channel up just to confirm my memory
As a slot car and model rail road enthusiast. I can understand what you were trying to do. I have way too much fun with scenery and you are going through what I have in the past. I am glad you were having fun. Free lancing is just too damn much fun with my work. I love what I do besides my day job. Right now I need to find some new agency's. The one I had been doing stuff for went out of business.
Ah yes agencies. Most of our work has been referral of course but we’ve worked with a couple of small agencies in the past. Sometimes I’ve done work for client who’s project has been filtered through multiple agencies lol and everyone takes a fee. A forest of middlemen lol. Did I ask you this already? Do you do audio post for video productions as well as radio?
@@tabletopalchemy I have never had the chance to do any audio for video productions except for that you tube video I made and that was pretty simple. All of my audio work. Mixing, editing and the rest has been radio only. I would love to give it a shot in a movie or something in that line. I know this is a bit antiquated, but you should have seen what I could do with a reel to reel. LOL
As always - great work!
Thanks! 🍻
Nicely done. There is definitely a learning curve with scenery crafting. In the end, the trees look great. I have seen and used most of those products, though I haven’t tried the flocked sea foam yet. Overall, this video taught me a few new tips, as well as reinforced some tricks that I already have tried.
Thank you
Awesome, thank you! I think you might dig the final look of the sea foam.
Nice
Oh at 13:25 you're making crustard! Nice, crustard is always awesome :)
Reminds me of “Ranger pudding” in the Army, where we’d take the packet of hot chocolate, dump in the freeze dried coffee and non dairy creamer and some water 😂
That sounds equal parts delicious and hazardous to your digestive tract :D
We were like 18 - indestructible you know. Proven by how much low grade alcohol we could consume. 🥴
I kinda know the feeling (I spent about 2 months in the army here before I got booted out). I didn't get one myself but a friend of mine once got a can of some spam like meat that was made in 1972. This was back in 2001 mind you :)
Oof! Sounds gnarly lol. We had MREs and there were good ones and terrible ones, we’d trade em around lol
Nice job! :D I need to make some fall colored trees, I have the foliage sitting around for a couple years now lol, time to get off my bum and make those trees!
That’s the spirit!
I'm just about to do some bamboo scatter and picked up some sintra to try out. You are inspirational and educational!
Awesome! I’ve never attempted bamboo scatter, I’d be very curious to see what u come up with!
There will 100% be a bulk industry version of Hob-e-tak, 'cause that's just how we get ripped off as hobbyists. THe one that always makes me laugh the most is those little spools of imitation barbed wire for 8 or 10 pounds, which is just twin strand security wire that you can pick up for £15 for 20 metres.
Oh that’s a good one, I’ve been looking for miniature barbed wire! 🤙🍻
Two words on tree glue - Barge cement.
That stuff’s legit but I have an issue with the fumes 😐
@@tabletopalchemy Fumes are legit with Barge. Not sure of your situation, but I apply barge outside and bring it in after it sets. It makes for some good crafting outside on my deck.
That’s a good deal to go out on the deck! Yeah I’m in an apartment so I’m pretty limited it what kind of chemicals I can work with lol. But I do think there are some industrial water based contract cements out there that might not be too bad. Just the cost of experimentation lol.
I find terrain usually comes out better for me if I DON’T plan or think about it too much. I don’t know if that’s because it ends up more naturally random that way or just because I’m so bad at terrain that even no plan is better than my plan. 😂
Lol! At this point I feel the same! 🍻
I’m always overthinking stuff too. Keep telling myself “It’s just a hobby, doesn’t have to be perfect”.
But the Michelangelo 👨🎨 in me won’t listen.
Interesting, we’re gonna talk about “perfection” in about … 6 weeks lol. (Had to do some scheduling math there 😂🍻)
Awesome. That stuff looks great. I love watching you figure your way through from "plan" (haha) to completion. Quick question, tho.. what is that dragonkin wizard model you have in the Martini shots at the end?
Ah, thanks lol. I got that dragonborn from Etsy (different seller but same model) www.etsy.com/listing/885262962/
Question, does the Hob-e-tac smell like ammonia? If so, it might be the same as the liquid latex material in Mould Maker, which comes out cheaper
Interesting. I have some “gilding adhesive” that smells a little like that and acts almost the same… I wonder if they’re the same too?
It does not, it’s actually very light on odor, kind of like pva
@@tabletopalchemy Interesting!
So, you do not like sand? It is coarse and rough and gets in everywhere...
😂🏴☠️
What's your hurry?
There’s just always too much to do lol 🍻
Good stuff, TA. FFS Joe needs to slow down! I've never even heard of Silver Bayonet! I've barely played Rangers and Frostgrave and it just a matter of time before I pick up Ghost. My wallet can't take much more!
Lol I was feeling similar! I pretty much pick up anything he publishes but I too have not yet actually played Rangers or Ghost 😂
@@tabletopalchemy I think I prefer Rangers over FG but haven't played enough to say for sure.
Yup, allergic to plans and foam.
😂 I have some certain allergies too (one of them is to the “infinite scroll”)!🍻
@@tabletopalchemy Same here, three utube pages at most.
