    Crazy...I was watching the Tudors last night and thinking I need to make some medieval tents that are better than the old cardstock ones I have from Perilous Quest. Perfect timing!

    Fine handkerchief linen, silk or similar thin cloth work as well. I cut up an old paisley tie to make a Mughal canopy for an elephant howdah and scraps from my wife's sewing became cloth trappings for other elephants. Fabric stores often have scraps bins where you can get inexpensive remnants if you don't know someone who sews.

  • @staffsluke

    I was so nervous when you started drybrushing the white on. But it makes the cloth look worn and really makes them pop.. love the fact you promote other channels too.. well done on the 100k! Well deserved

  • @dell2man

    If you had searched more of DM Scottys vids you would have seen where he would use toilet paper or even paper towels for such things as you are trying, but the secret was lay down the toilet paper or paper towel down dry on your project then spray it with a 50/50 mixture or white glue and water. And let dry. Hopes this helps

  • @1525kat
    @1525kat 3 роки тому +17

    baby wipes work really well (unused - LOL) Paper napkins (they are multi-ply so separate them) have another advantage in that you can find them in colors or patterns. I found some old english patterns that worked nicely.

    Black Magic Craft uses construction paper to simulate bits of leather/animal hide. It looks great
    There are lots of great tips about what to use for cloth so I'll add what I use as cloth on a very small scale. It's a paper for wrapping the ends of hair. It's called end wrap

  • @doooomdragon

    I have used similar techniques for things like curtains and blankets. But something I do is look at the textures of various paper towels and TP. The patterns can look really cool and intentional when used well.

    Here is a really cool technique to use for frosted glass:
    Cover toilet paper in super glue and it will turn kinda transparent.
    It also turns very hard because it's superglue. The glue would need to be a runnier one

  • @asmodan6230
    @asmodan6230 3 роки тому

    use an underlayer of papertowel 1st. it helps build texture and strength . then use the tissue paper to cover it and hide the papertowel pattern. love your vids always inspiring .you can also use clear packaging plastic and boiling water to make nice strong banners/cloth

  • @katht309
    @katht309 3 роки тому +9

    Thanks for showing videos like this - it encourages those of us just starting out that even the experts still need to learn new techniques and not everything goes to perfect plan first time. It also helps us to see how things can be fixed, and the time and effort doesn't have to go in the bin just because it's not perfect. Thank you. I've been enjoying your videos this last week and am slowly working out what I'm needing to forward think about for my planned diorama. Thanks.

I don't have the space (or money) yet but you've inspired me to start building my skills right now using materials I can find around the house. One day I'll graduate to your level! Looking forward to seeing what you do next.

    I have used an old cotton sheet soaked in strong tea and PVA for a canvas look before...very effective and it drapes well. Clean but old cotton (worn out bed-sheet) is best.
    I have also used kleenex and PVA but you have to be careful how you handle it as it will rip and fall apart easily if handled too much.

    Nice job on the tents look good. Yeah Scotty did some like that for Orcs I think V at Crafting Muse did some nice tents. I know I'm probably forgetting several that did tents. One thing that can really make them look a little nicer is where the roof meets the wall use a strip either cut in rectangles or triangles hanging down can paint them in a different color or make them blowing in the breeze slightly to add detail and more interest to the tents. Can even use paper towels the cheap thin ones with no embossed lines in it if the toilet paper is a bit to flimsy for you.

    Congrats on the 100k subs. With regard to the canvas, I dry brush with the same color I painted the canvas but 2 - 3 shades lighter. I find it more realistic. I find dry brushing only with white on certain colors doesn't quite seem to portray realism and it can be quite noticeable. Give it a try. Once again congrats on 100k subs, quite an achievement on modelling channels.

    Scott from Miniac suggested using thin brass sheeting. You can shape it like a banner or flag in the wind and I it'll easily hold its shape. I wonder if this as a base but covered in tissue would give it a more realistic texture.

    I used actual fabric and coated it with super glue - shaped as desired - which hardens it to feel like plastic..... Although this method was used onto a miniature to make a cloak it was a great result.... not sure if a larger project would work but you can give it a go.

  • @MaxRomantschuk
    @MaxRomantschuk 3 роки тому

    One material experiment that might be worth trying is using rice paper used for Vietnamese spring rolls. You just soak them in warm water for a moment, and they are quite forgiving and elastic. Haven't tried for crafting, just cooking, but could potentially be something that would work as well. :)

    If you want a cloth effect, use cloth ! You need a pillow case made from 800 count Egyptian cotton or above. The higher the count, the better the look, but a pillow case of 1200 count is super fine and works brilliantly, and costs about £5 / $6.50. Hope this helps.
