Great video John ! Thanks so much for the shout out, really appreciate it :D Those walls look sick, this whole magnetic terrain thing is great. I will be trying out your idea for sure !!
Every time I think you can't outdo yourself , you show me wrong again. Super build John. Easy, simple and effective. Just how most of us (or at least me) like it.
Awesome! It is what I am actually using for my Whiterock Castle interior! The magnets are the final solution for keeping the whole thing very stackable! Great video, absolutely full of great ideas! Thanks for sharing, John!
Very interesting stuff! Not a fan of high walls in a TTRPG but gave me some good inspiration! Just a tip if you don't want to waste citadel wash: to give (wall) paper an aged look you can also use tea or coffee (no additives like sugar) and make sure it dries completely, of course. Thanks for your hard work!
Man this was the video I needed. I have been trying to decide on walls for weeks and how to do them. I am going to have to give this a try. Thanks again for another great video.
Very clever. I am all about those thin walls! Getting terrain and scatter and NPCs and monsters you need all the space you can spare. Some things realism is great but wall players mind will fill in the blanks on depth.
hi john, that brought you splendor again. with the magnetic strips. and that wallpaper and what I also thought was cool was the hand on the wall that I loved when you wipe it out like that.
Now that you have crafted this stuff, you should bring in a bunch of players and play a campaign with all of this stuff and film it. That would be amazing.
Super awesome build as always! Those walls are amazing. And you are da magnet guy!! One...uh...small criticism. That Victorian door you made with the hinges and the modern door knob? Super cool but COMPLETELY UNOPENABLE! Lol! You have the hinges on opposite ends on both sides, including the door knob! Fire that carpenter! Lol! I'm just kidding around of course, as the entire build is awesome and lots of great techniques again. Thanks!
Nice work on the details of your walls. And cool making them magnetic. After seeing the metal bulking out the wall. They do make a magnetic paint. That you could use.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT To be honest no I haven't. As I haven't had the need to use a paint like that. But from what I've seen. People have used it under other paints. So I thought that might help you out. Use it like the black base layer. And paint over the top of it. With your washes and paints.
Sheesh your projects are always so next-level. Half of your videos I can't wait to try, the other half I imagine will be me face-planting in the attempt, lol. Thanks for another sweet video!
Love the hand stamp idea. Have you thought of trying to make one out of foam (ready-board). The soft texture may help the application. Softer like a real hand. Might hold paint better & when applying it may get in to the unsmooth texture of walls, floors, etc. more easily. Looks good on smooth flat paper. Thanks for sharing :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT It will definitely be a challenge lol I’d try to get rough shape pen knife & tweezers then use clay tools to work the details. Maybe use green stuff to reinforce the back of hand & give it some rigidity/rigidness or just put foam on the one have already?
Awesome work! For the hand stamp, you might find it easier to shape it in relief over a flat base - it's more durable that way too, as there's no risk of the fingers breaking off.
And I was just started to worry if everything is ok with you because I didn't saw any new video lately. Glad to see you are okay :) Amazing tutorial as usual
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Yes, I did. And you are right, It's only really been a week, the days are getting long from sitting at home all the time and I thought a lot more time had passed :P
Those walls are great. I now need to add to these to my tavern build. Thanks for another awesome idea! Not sure where you get these fabulous ideas, keep them coming!
I been playing with something but these magnetic wall strips are something I been needing. I am 3d printing and trying to replicate warlock tiles but with magnets and such I could improve it.
Excellent! What if I made the wall twice as thick by doubling the foam and place the metal sheet in the middle-would magnetic strip attached to the edges have sufficient strength to stick to the walls?
Wouldn't edging the bottom of the walls with magnetic tape (and painting the edges of the magnetic tape to blend it with the wall surface (i.e. stone, wood, etc.) allow you to use the walls without having to use scatter terrain objects to prop them up?
That’s a cool idea to try, but I find that the magnetic tape really isn’t that strong. I’ve had some cool ideas that I tried using the tape on and they failed.
I love the setup, I'm just starting to use magnets and I was curious if you were to sculpt quarter round columns to connect two walls at a 90 degree angle, what would be the best orientation for the magnet in the column or would it be better to just use two off set magnets?
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT quick follow up. 1 tiny 6x3mm magnet mounted horizontal ( perpendicular to both walls ) was strong enough to keep the pieces in place. So joining 2 sections of walls at angles with a single magnet is a go,. Thanks again for the ideas, great channel, love your work!
If I brought that to my table, it would take me an hour to get my players to put it down so we could finish playing... its still my goal to get this good though
Chez nos magasins il n'ya aucun modèle pour tailler le styrodur faut passer sr le net pour commander bien dommages, belle présentation comme d, habitude continu 👍
The only issue I see with those is that you need a piece of magnetized furniture for every wall section to hold it up. Also, the door is giving me a headache. Perfect for a house of an insane mage.
I found this channel from a love of miniatures lol I’d love to game but yuh I don’t know much lol. I was wondering what scale you work in? 1:48? Love these creative vids!!! I’m geeking out lol
28mm is about 1:52. However most models are now made in a "Heroic" scale, about 30mm , which is close to 1:48. So 1:48, or model train O scale, will work just fine.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT thank you! I remember D&D I just had no idea before stumbling upon the collaborated gaming table that miniature scene building was this broad!So excited to delve in more. This also lends ideas to all miniaturists not just gaming enthusiasts so thank you for the content and sharing your craft! I might need to go hunting for a local gaming group now...☺️
@@MrOmega-cz9yo thank you! I have never heard of heroic scale. I’ve seen gaming figurines you can buy and paint online and thought they looked close to 1:48 scale...or even half scale (1:24) this opens up a whole new spectrum of possibility for scene building...👍🏻☺️
Sadly Foam Core isn't something quid shops stock in the UK. Locally, my only option is waaay overpriced stuff from the local hobby/craft store. Can anyone recommend a good place to buy it online for the UK?
Have you considered mat board? It’s a little denser than regular cardboard and takes more pressure to carve out but you can use an xacto or utility knife to create grooves. It might take a couple passes to get a good line in with a sharp blade but you can follow a second time with a butter knife to make the lines a bit wider..also Amazon stocks foam board Also...if you do use cardboard you can add texture by adding cheap drywall spackle..meant for filling in holes in the walls- even dollar store stock it and the cheap stuff works better than the expensive stuff in my opinion 👍🏻
@@JustJennyKelly I have even less idea where to get mat board from. I don't know if the Amazon UK prices for foam core good? I mean the most common price I see is £20 ($28ish) for x16 5mm A3 sheets. Which doesn't seem great to me. Spackle (though its not called that in the uk) is only good for one type of texture though. I like foam because it can be made to look like various materials, like wood, stone, brick and more. I appreciate the input, but I'm British... So we don't have dollar stores. Though my local quid shop probably has a small tub of all purpose filler. But like I said, I prefer the idea of foam core because it can be given various textures.
The metal holds a bit better but the magnetic paint will work. I've used it in the past on my channel and I'm actually using it now on an upcoming video :)
Not really "dungeon" walls. But the real issue is that you need to have a thing to support each wall, which would be very unlikely in a dungeon. Also, walls are a bit fiddly and not a clean connection. I am a fan of your work and like the look of these walls for other purposes. But sorry to say these "dungeon" wall fail
All of your stuff is fricking AMAZING!! Thank you so much for the tips and education!!
You got it, I'm glad you're enjoying the content !

You got it Michael! Keep up the awesome work.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Thanks dude, likewise :)
I never plan on making tiles out of foam, but i love your videos because they give me great ideas for 3D modeling terrain
That's awesome that you can translate these builds to your own craft! Thanks for sharing.

Great video!!!
Psst... Just a friendly heads up... ( 15:33 ) check your door hinges and knobs. Just our secret!
Thanks.... yep I spotted that as well.... it’s a trick door haha
Great wallpaper method. I think I'll try this rather than carving bricks or wood paneling. Thank you for this tutorial!
Sure thing Ray, hopefully I saved you some time :)
Very interesting stuff! Not a fan of high walls in a TTRPG but gave me some good inspiration!
Just a tip if you don't want to waste citadel wash: to give (wall) paper an aged look you can also use tea or coffee (no additives like sugar) and make sure it dries completely, of course.
Thanks for your hard work!
Thank you... yes using coffee works well. I've used that to age maps for handouts during games :)
Thank you!! You just saved my butt. I needed this idea very much so with a current project I am working on. I definitely will be using this!!!
Awesome, I’m glad you can use the idea. So many uses. Even for wargaming and destructible buildings!
Awesome idea...they turned out great. I really like the panel with the torn wall paper.
Yeah I made these to go with my Haunted House.... a few more pieces to go before I use the house. Thanks!
Well those walls just look super fun. The wall paper was a really great touch. The hand stamp is dope too.
Glad you liked it... Thanks Rob.
Really nice 👍 just a tips you can take from a carpenter, there is no hinge on both side of a door. You can save 2 hinges per doors!
Lol yep I knew I screwed that one up landremon. By all means call me out on those silly mistakes :)

Hi Luc, thanks. The hand smear needs a little work, but I love the way I got it to look on the paper!
What a fantastic idea! Love the concept and the applications are massive......and that blood drenched hand smear down the wall is just brilliant!
Thank you Andy... A bit more practice with that stamp and I'll be using it more often in builds for sure!
You said this vid was full of tips and tricks. You weren't kidding. Some really good stuff. As usual.

Sadly Foam Core isn't something quid shops stock in the UK. Locally, my only option is waaay overpriced stuff from the local hobby/craft store. Can anyone recommend a good place to buy it online for the UK?
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that someone can help you out. You can always use cardboard as the walls as well for this craft !
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT I've used cardboard before, it pretty much always looks worse than foam. I just can't get the same texturing.
Have you considered mat board? It’s a little denser than regular cardboard and takes more pressure to carve out but you can use an xacto or utility knife to create grooves. It might take a couple passes to get a good line in with a sharp blade but you can follow a second time with a butter knife to make the lines a bit wider..also Amazon stocks foam board

Spackle (though its not called that in the uk) is only good for one type of texture though. I like foam because it can be made to look like various materials, like wood, stone, brick and more.

It doesn’t it’s foam :). Ya I know the hinges...
Where do you get the foam
Dollar store.
Why the metall? Just use magnetic paint. It is so much easier to handle and to build and you can use it even on 3D printed builds.
