    hay fields really depend on the time, now they're huge, in the middle ages the whole countryside was divided in small patches that could be worked by hand by a couple of people

    You should make another hayfield with crop circles in it. Just to mess with your opponents.

    Nice haystack method here. I made haystacks for our club by carving 2" thick polystrene insulation board, but this method gives a really sharp final product. Never thought to use the door mats like this!

    GW came out a while ago with a terrain tutorial book and one of the suggestions they made for hayfields was to not glue the base and hay field so that you could remove them and give it the impression that it's been trampled over when units walk over them.

    My background is in newspaper/magazine layout and design. Back in the day when large qualities of spray adhesive were being used (Spray Mount etc) there were numerous warnings that all such spray adhesives are carcinogenic (cancer-causing) if inhaled. Inhaled spray adhesive is in the same category as inhaling MDF dust or any spray paint. As well as being a fine aerosol it also contains some nasty hydro carbons. The industry warnings, at the time, were it should not be used indoors without strict precautions. The industrial standard was a 'glue booth' which sucked air away from the work piece and absorbed the glue/air into a replaceable filter. Other suggestions are do it outside or use a personal mask but only use masks in an exclusion area where others cannot breathe it. Regard it as a 'persistent agent' in still air. Well ventilate and/or do it outside.

    • @barryslemmings31
      @barryslemmings31 7 лет назад +2

      These are glue booths:

      I enjoy the video lessons. Many of the things you do now with modern materials I was doing in 1/200 or 15mm scale with cardboard and plaster 25 years ago. And... before you ask… I 'set' the thick cardboard with polyurethane varnish to make it hard and waterproof before I used a fine sand, plaster and PVA mix on it. No warping!
      Keep on trucking and work safe! :)

  • @davefielder4411

    I reckon you could use steel wool for the haystacks as well, can't you? I sprayed the wool on my test tree with a few different coats and it made the fibres noticeably thicker, so it can be quite close to what you get out of the coconut. Maybe a little less in scale. I think there's also something called wood wool used in decorating (and packaging back in the day) that could be useful, but honestly I haven't touched any for ages.
    Nearly all my at home clothes are hobby soiled, mate. Honestly, I don't care much. It's just easier to wipe something on your shirt if you need it to be done quickly than doing yoga exersises to reach a bloody towel around the corner. It also creates nice patterns, especially with the occasional paint accident. I'm more worried something's sticking in my beard. You know, I've seen guys wearing a tie under an apron at the bench. That can't be normal.

    • @TheTerrainTutor
      @TheTerrainTutor  7 лет назад

      Not sure on the wire wool, give it a go and let me know how you get on mate!

    @TheDeinonychus 7 лет назад +3

    I would have drybrushed the bases earth tones to get a good compacted dirt look, then rather than using flock, I would have more finely chopped the left over coconut fibers and sprinkled that on like flock. When you look at hay fields after they've been bailed, it's usually more dirt that green grass. Of course, for edges you could sprinkle a bit of green flock to match them to the rest of the table, but to me, hay would have looked better on more bare dirt.

    • @TheTerrainTutor

      i love baseball diamond red sand, i havethe store bought andhonestly like naturalbetter I bake my dirt for 1-2 hpurs at 350 degrees F. I use natural bush branhes lawn and leave trimmings hay, thorn trees, Ive became a huge fan and watched so many of your videos and have learned so much. my friend makes tiny dioramas for his tank models but i just cuts 8, 20'x18" plywood boards i have surgery in 1 day and a wake up. ill be in bed for 2 weeks and no physical activity for 90 days after that, ive made alot of pva i have modge podge my glues my material foam board my foilage and pigments hot glue gun and so much more. To much to name lol i have 2 deasks by my hospital bed in my room so i can easily access everything. if its ok my first board i will make a video of the finished product, ive bought and got so much material for 3 and half months its crazy. Ill comment link to video if you could give me a few pointers on the first board i make, they will not be for war games just for my projects i have a reallly creative mind and love how you also use your imagination alot as well as i do to get what you need done. i even have 2 bags 200 soldiers at a 1:35 scale. my first scene will be an irag type setting, if you could give me a few pointers ill send link to my first board finished video in a week or so, i also have came to love a product in the USA called ProFrom Joint Coumpund you can mix and water it down and i love how you taught about making the rock walls and terrain with the aluminum foil technique 50lbs of proformjoint compound is only like $12 U.S. dollars per 50 lbs which is alot if you think about it and it stays wet if you dropabout a half cupof water to bucket before put lid on will last like over a year ive read on blogs. thanls a lot for responding

A tip: put subtitle of his speech in the video and a description of the materials list to be used, even in English. This helps me - and others - to understand your description. My understanding of English is not so good as to be able to understand everything you say, you are too fast ... Congratulations! Sidnei, from Brazil.
