Warmachine and Warhammer 40k Terrain First View

[SoCalRiders18]

great vid but plz cut out the Uh Ah..... :)

[miniwars123]

howed you make the faceless monk guy, not sure if you realized, but he would work really well with 40k cities of death!

[slannfrog]

If this guy says "Ah" or "Um" one more time....

[dingwei7]

u are a legend mate, keep it up, but could you do a tutorial, step by step as and when ure makin them, thanks.

[darthd95]

these stones are made out of styro???i wonder how you make this texture

[darthd95]

do you use molds???

[BFBConlineGameplay]

hey its you who was 1 of the winners of the miniwargaming scenery contest!!!! nice...

[terrainaholic]

Thanks Bro:)!

[terrainaholic]

The buildings are made from Hirst Arts Blocks and they are made from plaster

[ninjutsu72]

what do you make your buildings out of?

[RubbishInRubbishOut]

Every time I see hirst builds, I always get inspired. those basic blocks and some arches make for excellent LOTR ... but no need to tell you ;-) Thanks Bill.

[terrainaholic]

Ya When I see your hirst builds I feel the same way:)!!!!!!!!!!!

[musicace7]

awesome job bro! i think a dirt base with some tuffs of grass or weeds etc. would look sweet:D keep it up!

[sna380]

sand,dirt and grass

[squidge789]

i love ur work

[8888Duke8888]

definitely dirt.

[apaqazxsw]

For the warmachine terrain I would suggest that you hit it carefully with a hammer. It would add a battered look to it.

Great job by the way.

[Number1GamerAsh]

DUUUDDDEE OMG loving it !

[RSfan4lif3]

I have a question for you. I know you said this terrain was designed for Warmachine, but can the bases of Warmachine figures fit through the doorway? (on the medium piece) It doesnt look like bases of Warcasters or infantry could fit through. Im pretty sure Warjacks (they have large bases) cant fit through. Id be more inclined to purchase one of those medium pieces if at least the small Warmachine models could fit through.

THANKS, bro!!! Keep up the great work!! Happy anniversary!!

[terrainaholic]

Thanks Man!!!!!!! It may have moved. The bricks kind of float on the glue till it gets hard and it probably setteled alittle. What size bases does warmachine use?

[RSfan4lif3]

Can I point out something? I think the doorway on the medium sized piece looks slightly odd. The brick above the doorway seems to be floating. I'm not sure the plaster on the sides could hold up a brick that large (unless its reinforced with metal on the inside which is possible). Maybe you could make the top of the next doorway covered by 2 halves of 2 separate bricks?

[terrainaholic]

I don't have another brick that spans 2 inches. I'll look for a way to cover that door problem. Thanks!!!!:)

[RSfan4lif3]

Could you visualize my suggestion? I was thinking you could have 2 bricks meet at the middle of the doorway (above it) so that each of the 2 bricks were half on the wall and half above the doorway. That way, half of the pressure of the doorway ceiling would be moved to the wall instead of it all being above the gap.

I thought of another option while looking at pictures of brick doorways. You could make it an arch instead! That would look epic.

Thanks for listening!! Take care, buddy!!

[RSfan4lif3]

I would definitely prefer grass over dirt. Probably because most of the gaming tables at my hobby shop are green and I like nature. Some moss on the brick would be cool, too.

Some people are saying there shouldn't be grass because the structure isn't broken much which means it doesn't look old. However, it doesn't have to be extremely weathered to be old. We're dealing with metal and pipes here so perhaps the surrounding brick was reinforced and is tough.

[geekgoth]

I would like to see it with grass aswell, thought about the buildings being old ruins that nature had taken over with moss and maby some vines climbing the walls. :)

[nereon11211]

Mecha999x has a good idea, with dirt, grass, and a little bit of moss sounds good and i bet u could make it look awsome

[Mecha999x]

how about dirt with grass...and a little bit of moss

[JannProject]

Another awesome video man! Looks very good. Has a great scale for both games.

[KingCanute1016]

i would say just because of all the pipes, you should mess around with havin pools of water on the base, like puddles so yu can put water effects or something on it. dunno, jut seemed like it might fit...

[cityonahill08]

I love the mixture of stone and steam pipes, its going to look great painted. My only issue is that I would make the end pieces ruined, cuz they just look like unfinished buildings. Looking good though!

[BootlegPainting]

i seen a cpl air holes here and there..... take a drill bit and make some bullet holes around them to make it look like it is supp to be there or take a blade and make some blast marks

[terrainaholic]

I was thinking about that but i think I'll do some moss with the static grass because its my NEW terrain toy!!!! I know its SAD I look at STATIC GRASS AS NEW:)!!! How the finger Bro?)!

[Zuthraa]

I like the gaps i think it makes it look older and weathered but other than Awesome stuff as always

[Guilliusx]

Looks GREAT! I'd go with dirt as it feels more neutral and it would fit with more tables and such.

[simonvelez2]

i thought it was the start date. but is it really just the camera naming your files?

[myhuxpo]

Those look real nice! But I have to say, the stonework is a little too light.. If I were you I'd darken it.. But that's my opinion!! :)

And cover it with dirt. Not gras!

[WhiteShadowZO]

That robert miles you have playing? i think so! you always have great music. nice set of terrain btw

[Kriegfreak]

Looks good as always man.

[danieljr12]

urbun wast land best for marines

[blotercraze]

you should add an urban feel along with grass

[stumpythumper]

Man O' War:)

[karreltje1]

Go with dirt, Great job again :D

(dirt on the floor/gras on the stones?)

[papercutdan]

go with dirt

[Jedijim252]

Hey Bill,

I think the new pieces are excellent. I could see them as ruined city scape, working with dirt and rubble and overgrown by jungle...they are so versatile...it would be cool if you could vary the base...magnatize the core structure...or maybe generic and let your clients request, city rubble, sand, or grass...love the hirst molds...congrats on the anniversary, the wife and I will celebrate our 36th this July...glad you are busy doing what you enjoy doing...God Bless you both....jim.

[terrainaholic]

36!!!!!!WOW JIM!!!!!! That is AWESOME!!!!! I may do that let the customer decide thing butI haven't done dirt yet and this one I may do in dirt. But thank you SO MUCH Bro. I have customised bases in the past for customers so That will probably happen any way. Take care Man and God Bless you to Man:)!

[bennyboon]

whats with the weird titles like M2U00184

[terrainaholic]

Hobbits job:)! I'll go looking for my hobbit stick and get her on it:)!

[bennyboon]

Haha :D great vid by the way

[myhuxpo]

Benny, the titles would be that he is uploading the files directly from the camera to YouTube, therefore the weird names, coming directly from the camera itself..

[reidmeyers]

you should go with dirt, it seems to fit more with imperial style buidiungs. not much greenery in the imperium.

Your terrain is looking good as usual

Take care

[tompat7]

i dont think they are 'ruined' enough for grass..

i mean they are not falling apart like most city of death terrain or our British castles :p

So mud or stone floor i think.

=)

[miniwargamereric]

I'd like to see some dirt rugged look with some weathering added to the stonework. And I Looovee those molds, Fireman Tim uses them all the time.

[macmoontrotter]

If you do a dirt look with some small mounds of dirt, you can do small pieces of grass pushing out of the dirt every now and again. This would give it a nice battle worn Jerusalem/egypt look.

[thehead69]

a moss type would be sweet
