This is a really great tutorial series! Thanks so much for sharing your tips with us, I really appreciate it! :)

Do you ever use the scouring pad leaves or something else like it? I saw your conifer trees and what you did there but was curious about non-coniferous trees using something besides woodland scenics.

Also curious on the moss. Does that ever rot because? Is it a real plant?

thank you for the video.

[thekamloopian]

@johnnyLikeVideo The moss is dried, never seen it rot or moldy. Even on my experiment pieces that are left in horrendous conditions.

I have crafter hole punches, shaped like a leaf. I have a maple leaf and a poplar type. They are big though at 3/8"

There are a few wild plants here that I can collect really tiny leaves off of. Dry them out, stir them up with some watered down green paint, and dry them out again. But, stale spices like oregano are easier.

Yes, cheap scouring pads work good too.

Hey from an Albertan modeler, i enjoy your shows, very nice examples on how to model, especcially the ones like this one.

[AhhMyShin]

Dude, yeah about the trees at hobby stores.

Ten bucks for four 5inch trees. TEN BUCKS.

[thekamloopian]

Ten bucks, cheap compared to here! Which is why I make my own ('sides they look better.)

If interested, I have some written tutorials on making trees on my one website Game-Terrain (info not com) There is a link from my channel here on youtube.

hey Kamloopian, I live in Peru and here they don`t sell cluster foliage on the stores, do you have any idea on how to make some kind of home-made cluster foliage? I want to make some trees :(

[thekamloopian]

The stuff sold here is a foam rubber, dyed green and fine chopped, glued on to a green dyed batting (cotton? rock wool? don't know)

Try dyeing fish pillow stuffing, aquarium filter, or a cotton ball type stuff green. Then spray glue and sprinkle old herbs on it for leaves (oregano, basil, or maybe something natural from outside dried)

Other than that, like me, you'll have to pay shipping and order it from somewhere.

Did he keep saying -Ssshhh ?

Less talk more showing champ

[lionkingboom]

u shaved

[SithWarrior9]

isin't the wire kind of dangerous to be using

[40kgaming]

yeah if your dumb enough to plug it in while your using it

[jrasm711]

or your mom  classic

[yukadoo]

2 alternatives for foliage u could use are scouring pads - ripped up, and a type of moss called "Dead Mans' Beard" - usually grows on certain types of trees.

Any thoughts on this, Kamloopian?

[carnigourousplotting]

english say aye,eh and err alot

[ElAmanuensis]

wow... simplemente extraordinario.

[Skipper242424]

Great tutorilas. HA Ha Pringles tube in the background.

[sk8amped246]

that foilage is preaty expensive down here in new york but i got about 5 bags of that mixed from when people returned them for 6 bucks!

[thekamloopian]

A good score.

Yes, the stuff is pretty expensive up here too ($5 a bag or there abouts.)

As you gently pull it apart and fluff it up a bit before you glue it on it does end up making a few trees. At first though, the flat little sheet of it does not look like much.

I'm making new videos of the tree making process. It will take me a week or two before I get them up. But hopefully they will explain things more.

[SithWarrior9]

dow here in melboune its about $3 bucks a bag cuz there cheap

[KorinPK]

DAMN RIGHT! A true Canadian, Down here ONLY I say "Eh, ya know, and Aye" Its so great to see it :D

[miniwargameing]

[Zeraoull]

[thekamloopian]

You should start countin' the number of times I say eh and aye.

It'll be a big number, eh.

[pendragonfan55]

[lotrperson14]

[terrancegore4]

[BOROCKHARDJR]

Eccentric.

[leveron123]

hey man great vid as normal, just im noticing you always seem to be rushing around the place looking for tihngs, just a little tip, plan out your vids, lay out everything you need for them close to hand just to make things a little easier on yourself, great vid XD

[thekamloopian]

nyuk, nyuk.

We don't plan, we adapt, improvise, and overcome.

I'm half blind with my thick bifocals anyway; I'm always lookin' for things.

[leveron123]

haha, thats a nice way of putting it i guess, anyways great work man, keep it up, your videos are so great for noobs like me, that shed/garage is like a moddlers wonderland, and the constant "or you could do this..." is great, you explain several ways of doing a job, well done

[loler5435]

cool vid, can u do a video on how u can make a gaming tabble?

[mustardtiger123]

Hey bud, your knowledge on your materials is very informative and I learn alot from your videos even for a veteran war gaming terrain maker.

And you have a very nice voice.

Keep it up.
