Clever technique with the ink! Thanks for the guide.
You're very welcome. I'm glad it was useful for you 🙂
Great job man!
this is fantastic, i was searching and searching for how to do this. thanks a lot.
I made a black and white tiled floor for a 00 scale building yesterday, by drawing and colouring in on a sticky label.
Yours makes my effort look like it was done at primary school level!🤣🤣🤣
Hey, whatever works. As long as you get the look you want, it doesn't matter how you got there :-)
Thank you for this. Looks great!
Thanks, I appreciate it 🙂
This is amazing
Thanks :-)
Cool. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Great idea.I can use it on my mediterranean mini house project. All the best !
Cheers, I hope it works out for you :-)
...that's not rain mister stephen, it's thunderous applause from your adoring fans (",)
I'd rather they were stampeding towards Patreon :-)
Looking forward to the finished product great video by the way keep up the good work
Thanks 👍
That's a really convincing tiled floor there mate, brilliant
😁👌
Thanks 👍
sweet I shall keep this in mind for my next build :D
Cheers :-)
I've done similar to this, in the past, when modelling flagstones - I used an old 'Harris' nylon wallpaper edge roller to get the plastic flat on to the backing. Pointless on wallpaper, really, but great on this - almost nothing sticks to nylon.
A lovely result, there, which made me think of the Greenwich foot tunnel, for some reason. Nice one.
Yes, I couldn't find my J roller anywhere, so I picked up a cheap one today while I was out :-)
Had a similar problem; similarly, used card and scribed lines to replicate wooden plank floorboards, then washed as you did. Nice!
Nice idea :-)
Yes on both accounts....I enjoyed it and found it helpful. Such a simple concept but with a realistic result....bet it didn't cost ten pounds! Will be looking to see what transpires with the diorama to come.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That worked a treat. I give it 99/100. (you lost a mark for not waiting another 3 mins for the spray glue to set a bit more!)
But then I wouldn't have been able to get the tile out to fit the drain... ;-)
It's great to see you doing these type of tutorials, maybe next on the list, brick walls? I have an idea for a diorama after watching the movie Uprising (2001), to dipict the fight scene of inside the sewer tunnels, I've not seen any about, so could be a nice thing to do.
I'm up to my armpits in a very big project at them moment, but it's an interesting idea. I'll keep it in mind for the future.
Today we have this... *flat piece of wood
Aha! It's going to be a scratch build vid... nice.
That's really great work. Nice finish on it - kinda looks like what you'd find on the wall in a rough pubs mens room... I hope your dio isn't the inside of a rough pubs mens room. :D
I got some of that Humbrol matt varnish both as a rattle can and in a bottle; it's got a slight satin sheen to it, but it's the most matt of all the matt varnishes I've tried yet. Nice recommend. Great vid thanks for sharing.
It's not a toilet :-)
Perhaps your next video could be one of those "Relaxing rain sounds for sleeping" things. :-)
Just for you... :-)
Nice little project.
Maybe for the spaces between the tiles, using a panel line ingraver
You certainly could do it like that, but I think it might be a bit narrow at this scale.
A great video. Looking forward to the dio.
I find when measuring odd numbers (12s 15s 18s etc) out writing down beforehand the intervals helps me make sure I mark them as right
Great tip and perfect for those who aren't lazy gits like me :-)
You all prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot my login password. I would love any tricks you can offer me
@Jonathan Miller instablaster ;)
@Mekhi Hudson I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Mekhi Hudson it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
I was thinking to form the tiles, heat up a metal screen mesh with a hair dryer or something and press it into the plastic until plastic is solid again to give the tiles a beveled look.
That would work, but in all honesty at this scale I wonder how much it would affect the look.
Hi, if I use colored paper for jade tiles, can I still age it the same way?
It looks very realistic. I'm trying to guess what the diorama will be- we know it's 1/35 so there'll probably be a military vehicle of some sort, and with this tiled floor and the scabby concrete wall I'm getting thoughts of Cold War Soviet things. I'm probably completely wrong and there'll be an X-wing or something in there!
Good guess. I wonder if you're right...? ;-)
@@SteamGeezerUK I'm preparing myself for something unexpected.
Wouldn't it be easier to cut the plasticard a bit oversize, stick the MDF to it, then trim the card off around the edges rather than having to line it up so carefully with wet glue?
Yes it would :-)
Is it the shower scene from Psycho?
No :-)

Lovely, just that sort of tiled floor that you'd never set your handbag down on, or let your kids touch - good grief, what *are* you building? LOL
You certainly wouldn't with this one. You'll have to wait and see why :-)
Have you been hiding in my bathroom and copying the floor?
Seriously, looks like the wet rooms we have here.
If your wet room looks like how this ends up, you'll need more than a plumber to sort it out... :-)
