to use corrugated cardboard instead of formcore. Take two of the sheets and glue them together back to back with the corrugating run at right angles to each other cress cross . This makes the cardboard much stronger and stops it wrapping while the paint dry's.
any1 played cod4? i made a board lhat is all corridoors and has a small open area with homemade bunker (has a cover save) it is loosly based on the indoor map on cod4
you no how you said u culd get foam core at craft stores. would you get it at like like craft riot, well do u have craft riot over east?im in perth btw
late reply, but .... Riot sell foamcore .. in both black and white, but only in 5mm ... last time I had a look they didnt have 2 or 3mm boards - they also dont stock the larger A1 sheets. If you have Dean's Art ... go check them out, they are cheaper then Riot and stock a full range.
No mate, you can get it from any craft store .. try Deans Art or Riot. Where abouts are you, send me a PM and I'll send you a list of places to check. Don't know why he said America only ... strange!
It kind of sounds the same. Foamcore is essentially a thin piece of foam covered on both sides by thin sheets of paper. Given that, I assume it is the same.
Another way to cut that foam core is with a special cutter they sell (like 5 bucks) or make ur first cut then fold the sheet and cut from the other side....it helps from that jagged look as well...... thats the way they cut dry wall as well...... and this isnt meant for u vic but all u out there trying to learn
US$150!! Wow, must be super professional mat. these ones are cheap but they work well. I have another mat that was more expensive, the skin on that seems to 'heal' better then the cheaper one.
Cutting mats for $4??? WOW!! I've seen boards that size at craft stores here in the US for $150 USD. There's no way that they are the same thing but I can't tell a difference from the video.
Nah ... I think many Aussies consider New Zealand an unofficial state of Australia though :-) My background is Indian - sub continent variety, not american indian ;-) Im based in Melbourne.
DUDE! this is perfect for me right now! I just picked up a literal TON of foamcore! My neighbor owns a craft store and he gave me more foamcore than I know what to do with. He is kindly letting me keep half of it at the store (which is about an entire pallet of it) but anyway, I am going to use it to make city stuff and you go make a video on this stuff! you are the man!
HAHA yeah. The irony of the whole thing is that I can't purchase any of the good pink or blue foam. It's actually illegal to build with in California. Total bullshit.
yeah I know, rediculous. I think it has something to do with the fire safety rating. the stuff melts nasty I think, I dont know, never played with it yet.
yeah I built that table - i built 3 at the same time and painted them about 5 hours. pretty easy to do, I have to make more so if you want a tutorial let me know. Cheers
Okay, no probs. I have to go out of state for business. Will be back in about 4 days, will film it and put up before next weekend. Though all my measurements will be in milllimetres ;) hehe
FANTASTIC!!!! as always this was enjoyable to watch. Im thinking about making myself a table. As i have never played 40k before, and with my black templar army now finished, this would be a great time for me to learn how to play the game. Is acity board good for beginners to learn on or should i make a simpler table? Thanks RiRo
40k uses less scenery then City Fight does. City Fight is a subset of 40k (you need a different book too) and it is played on a much more tightly packed board - scenery wise. 40k is a bit more open.
no problems! thanks for watching ... 3 other parts are uploading now. the whole series should be up by the end of the night. not waiting on this one like the tudor series :) need to get it done!
Excellent, I always enjoyed your tutorials. I'm glad you are back in action. It seems like the other big guys have stopped doing these types of things. But I enjoy them tons. Once again thanks for taking the time to show people how to do this and get motivated into making there games better.
