    GW's promotional photography had some stand out pieces of scratch built terrain. The huge circular landing pad was a standout. But I think the crashed cargo spaceship was the absolute highlight of their stuff.

    It was certainly a more creative time for wargaming / terrain scenery back then. The Terrain Tutor will teach you everything almost you need to know about modern scratch building of terrain peices, although he's having a bit of a rough time right now unfortunately. I'm getting into Warhammer The Old World so I'm modifying terrain to make it look as a sort of half way house between 1990s Fantasy Battle Terrain and modern day Old World building kits bought off the shelf.

      @@kirkbrownell1556 I've been out of the hobby for a while...so I probably don't know the current landscape as well as you. I will say it was always my favorite part of white dwarf, and I loved all the articles about turning aquarium plants into jungle terrain, grabbing the wierd styrofoam forms that come with electronics to hold them in place and turning them into fortifications or parts of industrial worlds...Did GW just stop promoting that or did like everyone abandon it in favor of 3D printing? because to me the DIY terrain felt so accessible, like I might have to save to get more minis, but I could just find some junk or spend $10 at the hardware store and have new terrain whenever.

    I am from the Rogue trader era and made whole cities hills and trees from various materials.
    Cardboard and polystyrene led on to foam board and later GW plastic hills.
    I was discussing laser cut buildings with a GW manager who told me that it's easier for them to let other manufacturers to produce and sell scenery and trees etc to save GW money on production and packaging etc.
    Plus I don't think they can compete on price.
    Many historical players still make their own terrain.
    I personally used to like a river and a bridge!! To fight over.

    I used to make alot of terrain back in the early 2000s...Lichen didn't always want to be glued down, didn't hold up in storage, and would get crumbly after a while...you could just have a pouch of loose lichen and place it as needed. Always glued flock though. Generally you'd clean the surface underneath after the glue was dried and shake it off, try to collect the leftover flock and use it for the next piece or for basing.

    Emperor date my growvat monitor! We were so lucky (I think I'm talking about millennials and generation X) that grew up with the naive and honest White Dwarf and Games Workshop! Not only were they still confident to use loads of black and white artwork (printing budget or capabilities had nothing to do with it), but the artwork that was used was still genuinely "grim dark". You really felt bad for the subjects in those scenes as opposed to the art of today (which is still portrayed by the best artists working in their field) that just looks like a very (grim to the extent that marketing would allow) sanitised and carefully permitted by committee, advertising images with compositions and subject matter ensured to offend only the part of the population that had a less than 0.63% potential of becoming an new perpetual customer. It was a different world that cared most about staying true to the grim, dark setting that artists and all types of contributors (to White Dwarf, etc) clearly had an encouraged and enthusiastic freedom from their supervisors in regards to what aspects of the 40k universe they could illustrate.....my first encounter with 40k was WD 179 when I was 9....it really was a special time in GW history

The pictures of the trees and rivers you are all to often using, are from Battlefront and Flames of war. The FOW guys were indeed, heavily influenced by the GW studios efforts. Moreover, you are showing quite a bit Bolt Action stuff.

    Sorry, but this is very painful to listen to. It's a very interesting video, I love the subject matter. But the way you are speaking is painful to listen to. Rather than reading off one word at a time, try saying a sentence at a time from memory and then editing it together. Or take the time to cut out all the delays between each word so it doesn't sound like every word has a full stop after it.
