A quick tip: If you don't have or want to buy the spray paints, all of this can be done with a brush and regular acrylic craft paints as well. It just takes a lot longer, but it can be done.
@@Valathiril just paint it with a large flat brush you would use to paint the walls of your house. And you will need to give it a couple of coats. This will work just as good. Hope that helps, and welcome to the hobby 😉. Thanks for watching 🙏
Thank you very much. Glad you liked it. Yeah, I used these mats to make dnd tiles a long time ago and they took paint very well, so o figured i´d give it a go hehe. Worked out really well 😉. Thanks for watching 🙏
@@lilcwa Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed the tutorial. I always try to find easy and cheap ways to get good terrain on the table. The hobby is expensive enough without spending huge amounts on terrain, so I look for better alternatives that anyone could accomplish hehe. Thanks for watching 🙏
Considering how fast and inexpensive this came together, it looks really great; especially with your terrain set on it. Very cool! Thanks for sharing and giving me some inspiration!
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah, it really was a Quick build. It looks great and is incredible durable 😉. You are very welcome, good luck with your Crafts and thanks for watching 🙏
I truly admire your approach to these projects.. Easy to follow, cheap and still very effective. That battlemat really comes to life with the buildings and terrain examples at the end of the video. Do you have a specific link to the grass mat you used? Thanks for sharing this and I look forward to see it in battle!😊👍
Thank you very much mate, I am glad you enjoyed the video 😉. Yeah terrain makes it come to life. I looked around for fake cheap grasmats. Then found a site called matten-online.nl but there are a lot of different sites that sell these. I ordered mine in the Netherlands as it my neighbouring country. Look forward to do huge batrle reports on this as well. Already gor a Eternal Wardens big battle planned to play soon hehe. Thanks for watching 🙏
Thank you very much mate, glad you like it. I am looking to add 3d elements into the Ash waste mat. Doing some tests at he moment. It is heading In the right direction haha. Thanks for watching 🙏
Thank you very much man. Glad you liked it. Yeah, I am really please how this one turned out. Especially considerung it was super easy and quick to make hehe. Thanks for watching mate 🙏
That's a huge compliment, thank you very much 🙏. I do try to find ways to make stuff that is affordable to most and also that is beginner friendly so anyone can enjoy creating and putting their terrain on the table . Thanks for watching 😉👍
Thank you very much brother. Glad you enjoyed the video. This was the easiest thing I ever made in record time haha. It is indeed the color sprays that sell this project and it looks great. Awesome, i will make a video on the realmgate in one of my upcoming vids ;). Thanks for watching my friend.
Thank you very much man, glad you liked it. I was surprised myself how quick this build really was, and also how easy it was to do :). Thanks for watching.
Thank you very much. That's a good question, I was actually contemplating the same thing. It is on my to do list so I will definitely test it out. I think it all depends dq if you want to go full snow or want to have some grass or dit showing through. But i think it can be done. Definitely on my list to make 😉. Thanks for watching
Thank you very much, glad you like it. Sure, it would work perfectly. I have a smaller mat on which I did that. I wanted this one to be quick and only use spray paint, I did end up using a but of paint but all in all,it was super quick. Thanks for watching 🙏
Thank you very much. Happy you like the video. I think that could be done in a similar way. I could test it out. See what i can come up with hehe Thanks for watching 😉
Thanks for sharing, I wonder if it's possible to do this on fleece (minus the rock formations). I'm looking to make a 90 by 180 cm mat for Argatoria and I'm not going to drop €90+ euro's on one from Deep Cut Studio when Action sells fleece blankets for less than 10 🤪 And since we have one in Wijnegem Shopping Centre AND Pipoos on the same floor I can pick up a cheap-ish spraypaint or 2 at the same time 🙂
I have not tried it with a fleece but in theory it should work. I think with spraycans it would have the same effect as with this mat. Just mix the colors like I did here. Yeah the mats from deep cut are very cool but pricey. And I like to make stuff myself hehe. Let me know how It turned out 😉. I know the action in Wijnegem . I am from Antwerp myself 😁. Thanks for watching mate 🙏
Thank you very much 🙏. The black one from action i use it all the time so that 1 is definitely good. The grey one, maybe if you spray from far enough and only Dust spray it, then yes, i think it is good, but if you plan to use contrast Paints I would advice against it honestly, though i did not use the grey primer (Improved quality) on a mini yet...something holds me back from using it haha. But the matt black one is solid 👍. Thanks for watching 😉
I like this. What kind of turf/grass mat is this? I feel like too long of grass would seem ridiculous up against models; you seem to have found a good length.
Thank you very much mate. It is a simple fake grass mat. A simple dark green fabric. If you type fake Grass mats in Google you ´ll find them 😉. Hope that helps and thanks for watching 🙏
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah, I have been thinking about doing that in the near future hehe. It is a good deal idd. Thanks for watching mate 🙏

@@pilot4701 Just typed in fake cheap grass mat. It was a store in the netherlands. I live in Belgium so it´s my neighbouring country. But there are many online stores that sell these. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 🙏
Not really a link, but if you type cheap fake grass mats you get a lot of the same results as the one I bought. Hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍.
No, but I think LIDL does sells them sometimes and action does too. Also hardware stores like Gamma, Hubo, Brico... also has them They are very cheap. Thanks for watching 🙏.
I already made a grass/snow battle mat using acrylic caulking but when I see that one in Lidl I am soooo tempted to buy it because it’s cheap and looks durable. Well done with yours, never thought about using thin cork for a battle mat. 👌
@@jandukanocraftThats awesome! I also want to make a winter/snow mat one day. It is indeed very durable, I have a smaller one as well which I made years ago and it still holds up. Also all my DnD tiles are also build, it the same mats and techniques but instead of spray cans I used regular craft paints. Hehe yeah Cork is an awesome material 😉👍

How can I do it with a brush? New to the hobby, not sure the technique

Well, really looks great and easy to make!
Thank you very much. Yeah it was super easy and it looks great with terrainon it. I am happy how it turned out. Thanks for watching 🙏

Great idea, my brother! The layers of colors really sell this project. Yes, it would be cool to see how you made your realm gate. - Rick, USMC

Awesome video! Love those realm gates. Please make a video about them.
Are they 3D printed?
Thank you very much, glad you like the video 😁. No they are made with a super cheap aquarium piece, horglue and paint. Thanks for watching 🙏.
So simple!!! Thanks!!!
Thank you very much. I know right haha it is one of the easist build i"ve ever done and it turned out awesome hehe. Thanks for watching 🙏
Looks really nice. Would the same strategy work to do a snow or winter mat, or would the base texture of the original grass mat not work?
Thank you very much. That's a good question, I was actually contemplating the same thing. It is on my to do list so I will definitely test it out. I think it all depends dq if you want to go full snow or want to have some grass or dit showing through. But i think it can be done. Definitely on my list to make 😉. Thanks for watching
Man you've got some huge armies! Id love to see how you made that realm gate
Hehe, yeah, i've been doing this hobby for a long time :). Thanks for watching 🙏
Great mat! Would a light brush over the rocky bits with a brown or black wash work to add a bit more definition.
Thank you very much, glad you like it. Sure, it would work perfectly. I have a smaller mat on which I did that. I wanted this one to be quick and only use spray paint, I did end up using a but of paint but all in all,it was super quick. Thanks for watching 🙏
Nice job I would like to see a winter map

what is your general opinion on the primer spray can from action? would you use it for minis as well?

Does it have to be a specific type of grass mat
No just one of those cheap carpet type ones. They work the best for these mats.
