Your enthusiasm is infectious, Mel. I look forward to your videos so much.
I just cracked together a few pieces of 40k scatter as a gift to my local game store, and now you've got me drooling over these Mantic goodies.
So excited! Can't wait to see you on this new sci-fi journey Mel! Thanks for sharing this with us!
I'd like to see them put together and painted.
Mate, you've saved my life.
I've watched your vids for ages, but most importantly I've watched all but religiously for the past 4 months.... Since my youngest was born...
Well she's got a bit of a temp and has been fussing since 2....and I put this video on and she's out....
Thank you so much omg
WIN! :-D
I will be ordering the Battlefield Ruins to use for Legion. I might get the Industrial Accessories as well.
Mantic are winning with terrain at the moment these terrain crates are great
Really looking forward to seeing this build to give me some ideas. I've volunteered to build a couple of tables for an after school club in the New Year so if you or Ronnie have any spares parts chuck them my way :D
just got the ruined city set last week - which has a lot of plastic in the box. I absolutely share Mel's opinion: you'll get tenfold out of these sets if you not just use them as the cube-shaped builds they are supposed to be, but integrate them into your projects mixing it with all the other stuff you have.
I'll use the set for Necromunda's ruined gang zones.
Looking forward to this build! These kits look fantastic. Always on the look out for accessories to decorate walls. Seen these knocking about but didn't know there was so much in them! I'm well jealous!
So helpful to see these up close like this. I'm sold for my next dio. Cheers!!!
I LOVE terrain crates!!!! Ya remember the AWESOME Govoner's building you made with my mantic diorama years ago? That was a BEAUTIFUL building you made there Buddy!!! I can't wait to see the innovative way you will build with these!!!! Great memories Buddy!!!! XD
Bill, the Mars Attacks building? Or something else?
I was talking about the regular space sets:)@@rustedbeetle
That was a good build matey, I enjoyed that one
I bought their Starship Doors set for £10 on ebay, always looking out for auctions for the good stuff. They work well with various Heroic Maps sci-fi tile maps. Looking at getting the Mantic Starship Scenery set as well.
For gribbly bits I have some of Maelstrom Edge's terrain sprues(3), plus other resin pieces. As well as some 10 count plastic mesh(thinking of using for windows), some insect mesh, craft sticks, popsicle sticks, and matchsticks. To add to my foamcore structures to give them more character. Starting with simple builds, square and rectangular shaped buildings.
I am excited to see what you build, looking forward to the series!
Got the industrial accessories with the pipes and computer terminals they brilliant
Used that for grebbles for a foamboard building. They're great :)
Now I need to think about my childhood. Great time with my Lego‘s. This stuff looks great. I think I need some boxes for my next project. Thanks Mel
Good to see the terrain crate love. Got loads myself. I also made the same mistake of mixing all mine 😂
Nice sci fi pieces and the underground build photos looked awesome :)
Very cool, I saw these at the store recently and was considering picking some up.
They're good bits of kit mate
I was wondering if the terrain crates are worth the price, and this video helped me decide... two of everything please!
So much stuff there, I can imagine you just sitting there building all kinds of things from that pile, not working on your new board, just for fun
Know I would be if it were me
Totally agree with you. !! It's like wargamers Lego :)
Thank you , Mel .
Mel your enthusiasm is contagious,but as someone who has had a mantic terrain crate before (not the sci-fi)I offer a friendly warning the plastic is crap it warps in the slightest heat and arrives boxed up but all bent and twisted.Mine might of been a one off but I’ve spoken to other people who have ordered similar crates of mantic and their experience is very similar to mine.I understand you’ve been given these things free of charge but fares fare.This is based on my own personal experience.
Not handled the fantasy stuff but all the scifi kits I've had over the years have been fine mate
Those look like so much fun to just sit and *build* !!! Like Lego, but for adults :)
always been tempted by the GW scifi terrain in the same way. The modularity and the possibilities just make me want to get my hands on a literal heap of the stuff and see what awesome stuff i can make! Unfortunately though, money is a thing XD
will love to see that feature board come together. I'm building a Necromunda board set and I'd love to see some one else (who has much more skill) work on something similar
Once again in plastic........... OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH I love Mel :-)
I have a load of the essentially similar Mars Attack scenery - brick buildings for a 'current day' battle. They don't seem to have expanded that range, but there's quite a bit in there for 20-21 century gaming.
The annoying thing about it is that the windows - quite a lot of them - are solid sheets of the same plastic. It would be a LOT of hassle to cut them out...
I've got the same pieces mate, a dremel is the best option for experience
Awesome! Thanks for showing off some sci-fi stuff. =)
I want it all
still watching this in 2021 :D
You sir, are an absolute legend
Wow 5 years ago !!!
I thought gribbly bits came in a small plastic bag inside a chicken from the butchers. Those mantic bits do look useful.
You don't want to put those bits on your terrain mate
Looks like the set from Aliens... Cool it Hudson!!!
Merry Christmas happy New year to you and yours stay the course in 2019 Bruce
Merry Christmas bud
Mantic makes some really good stuff. The customization options of their sets put the games workshop stuff to shame. Only issue I have is the connectors can be a pain to set in right, and other times they are extremely frail and the pegs break off during dry fitting.
The only critisism I got for mantics kits is that you never seem to get enough connectors.
I don't think that'll be a problem with this build mate :-D
@@TheTerrainTutor With that many kits? No I wouldnt think so! :D
Is that vinyl like the Bones models? How does it react to paints? I know Bones models react badly to aerosols paints and after a few months turn glossy and tacky. Let us know please. Thanks for the vids.
They're hard plastic and from my experience they take paint just fine.
As Sam says mate
Cool stuff.
they dont do 10mm :( the industrial set might be ok but the rest is way to big:)
What do you think about warhammer 40k terrain?
Haven't got any of the recent stuff mate, so can't really comment beyond it looks nice and the modularity looks good
Nice vid Mel, but your workshop is far too organized! :D
It's the way I roll bud ;-)
Great vid
Mel, can you add a link in the description to the Mantic page?
Doneski!
Hi do I need glue to stick the terrain ruined City or just the clips. They keep coming apart when I add another section 😀
Just the clips mate
wow amazing! :)
I wish they USA store . good vid

Mel where can we get these kits from could you possibly throw a link up (my apologies if you have i can't see it)
Mantic Games mate
Whatever happened to this project or did I miss it?
On the shelf waiting for me to finish the book work mate
@@TheTerrainTutor I've got plenty of shelf space available. I imagine you're really, really struggling for storage at the moment 😉
It'll be much safer stored here 😁
Does this work with 40k scale?
Fits perfectly
yes got get some al so be good fore orky say truck stuff or titens as bit out side see you on sun day and happy hlodays
Man, you got to do something about the sound, the sound from the terrain is jaring for the ears.. you should try to get a mic.. so you dont have to capture so much sound with the camera microphone. Dont know if I can finish the vid since Im on headphones.. it just to painful.. =(
"Once again in a plastic..."
squeals like a school girl
I am nothing if not consistent bud!
21:58 🤷🏻♂️
what accent is this lol it's exactly the same as guthrie govan. Awesome videos though just curious
Hey, Mel I forgot your E- Mel address. Send it to me

First
Man, I detest these connectors.
Did you go for the first kickstarter?
@@TheTerrainTutor No sir. I got a bunch off a fellow gamer in trade for some miniatures a few years ago. Ended up super-gluing the buildings together because the connectors wouldn't hold worth a dang.
