🤣 I straight up lol'd when you started driving the matchbox car around, I'm right there with you man
you get a like for the car alone. the rest is amazing... how good would grass hold to the bending part?
Also-if you heat up small sections of the EVA with a heat gun and then immediately use the texture tool, it takes texture just fine. You just can’t heat gun it a second time.
Amazing idea! More sci fi stuff please.
Agreed! I've used the heatgun+texture method with EVA sheets myself, and it works most of the time, though some EVA gets a bad consistency after heating and might fall apart
^ Came here to say this. Its how a lot of Cosplayers build their armor - heat it, shape it, mod podge, and paint. If you mess up, heat it again and the shape comes out.
If you have a second pair of hands, that would be best. you have to work FAST with the heat method.
Will it still be flexible along the fold?? Curious if it will affect how it bends, I know sometimes heating can make things brittle? 🤔🤷♂️😊
I'm all for these dollar store videos! I've started to feel like too many of the bigger warhammer/DnD/miniature games youtubers have moved a bit too much away from beginner friendly tutorials and projects. Keep up the good work my man!
EDIT: I love the glowing lines, they give me a warm and fuzzy old european scifi comics feel, something I feel Moebius could've dreamed up.
I'm in the USA and our 'dollar stores' rarely keep anything like this in stock. However, I can see the potential in using chip board and EVA sheets in a similar method
Ok I’m not crazy then. I haven’t seen anything like this at Dollar Tree or Daiso.
This looks great! If you heat up the foam first with a heat gun or a hot hairdryer before imprinting you get much better patterning! It also gives the Eva foam a more paintable surface! Cosplayers have great tips for foam crafting
Would you do it before they are on the base or after?
Crazy seeing how well this ties in with your ruined city pieces that took so much longer, what an awesome set!
Universal weathering does a lot to bring things together. If you use the same general washes/pigments on things they look like they lived in the same place.
I LOVE how the road markings and that glow effect between the panels came out! It may not be your usual style, but it looks kind of awesome and it's always cool to see people working outside their comfort zone.
I didn't like the look of the tile on its own - but when you put your city pieces in, it looks pretty awesome.
love your philosophy about always pushing out your comfort zone!
If you covered up anything with proper terrain it looks good lol
Two minutes in and I'm already "ok, scrap the other plans I had for for tiles" and switching to this (mainly because already have the craft foam from making sci-fi tiles on dollarama mdf squares). That line painting had a bit of a lava vibe at one point - so clearly lava board is on the the work plan
I can't seem to find the likes of those mats anywhere. Most definitely this looks pretty amazing for a quick, dirty, and cheap build. Too awesome!
I don't often comment, but some of your builds, just make me go "THAT MAKES SENSE!!" Thanks for the craft!
I don't even wargame, but this is superb. Very versatile; I could see you doing different terrain types for other game genres too, like desert, arctic, prairie, etc.
It might not be functional with the foam surface, but after you do your masking, lay down a clear coat of your choice, and it will seal the lines from paint seepage.
Love how it doubles as that rug we all had as kids with the roads on it
9:25
"spike tape" is similar to your automotive tape in sizes but is designed for the theatre and film industry so has a much less tacky adhesive and might be less inclined to pull up paint beneath it. Roscoe is the biggest manufacturer but there are others.
This is a very cool build! I would love to see a mat like this but made for fantasy or wilderness- I think a mat like this would do great for Frostgrave!
I'm really curious as to how well grasslands or forest floor texture would hold up in this folding format.
Yeah, as a beginner in craft, I plan to try that instead because I know I'll just mess the roads if I try this.
foam detailing tip from a cosplayer: USE A HEATGUN OR HEATER TO SOFTEN THE FOAM UP TO ALLOW IT TO TAKE DETAILS! it also closes the cells of the foam allowing you to not have the paint soak up as much paint
I have heard that advice several times...I gotta try it out.
This came out really cool! The metal plates with lit up lines between kind of could work like a dwarven city with lava channels running around, too!
Fantastic. Think I might try this out for my Grimdark Future: Firefight games.
Adding to a comment from earlier: Once you make your small cuts (e.g. hexes) in EVA, you can hit them with a heat gun, and they will open up and become much more visible.
From the top down view, I wasn't sure about the yellow & white additions to the lines but when the mat is all set up, I like the contrast. It does look like it's illuminated.
Awesome idea man, and it looks fantastic! If you haven't tried it, gluing eva foam together with contact cement lets you get right up to the seams, and it'll never come apart. The cheap hardware store stuff works pretty good too. Maybe it's time for a Canadian Tire challenge??
The truck interlude!!! 🤣😂
(Glad I wasn't taking a sip of coffee!)
If you were building a matt for a clean sci-fi city or even space station interior that light source between the large tiles look would really sell it. Especially a light blue. Fancy Sci-Fi lights always seem to glow bug zapper blue in my mind. 😛
Thanks for doing more Dollar store builds. That's my budget.😁
This is a such a good idea! I have very little room so it would be nice to have a battle mat I could put away easily.
A very cool project! I love the versatility of it. Any chance we could see you do a triple whammy of this? Like a green nature one, a cave/dungeon one, and a surprise one.
+1 for additional terrain types! Such a cool build and use of the materials - would love to see other concepts!
I’d love to see a dungeon one and a wilderness one too!👍
This one looks excellent. I’ll be checking my local ¥100 stores for stuff this weekend.
Love the the toy car play near the end of the video! That's the way i'd have done it too. The mat looks great!
Love the build! A trick with working with textures on ev foam (from the cosplay world) is that it responds to heat. Crumple up a piece of tinfoil and heat it from behind with an iron, pressing it into the ev foam. You'll get a rough, almost leathery texture that gives you some depth and character. Cheers!
Sometime I'd like top see you do the same project as a Grim / Dark fantasy city for D&D. I'd be interested to see how you would approach that.
I love this and definitely plan on making something like this happen for my tabletop games. Also, I definitely relate when driving a gaslands car across a table / battle mat.
Even if you don't want to create a foam "hinge", you can still make the mats into disconnected map tiles. Which has the added benefit of being modular.
I swear you’re in my head…I was trying to figure out a quick and cheap way to make a play surface for upcoming Mordheim games. This is great.
That's your best video of late, really great idea and execution.
Since you’re going back to your “back to basics” videos I know I’d love to see you make another house or closed structure like you did back in the day.
This would be a fantastic setup for Star Wars games-adding this to the list of family crafting projects! Thank you!
It's definitely a bit more cyberpunk than warhammer, but it's not like the skills don't transfer over! Great build.
Thank you for the video! I’ve wanted to start making boards for Skirmish games but didn’t know where to start - I’ll have to give this a shot!
These sheets are awesome! Used them a ton for Cosplay and Larp costuming materials too. Love seeing their purposes extended to the rest of my hobbies 😍
Excellent, a great looking build that is well within the powers of even the most novice crafter. And cheap too. Win/Win. Cheers!
I need to find a place to get those foam pads near me, great idea!
Great timing on this. I was going to make a few battle mats and you've given me some ideas I hadn't comsidered.
Thanks man.
Loving these back-to-basics videos!
Your original design would be fantastic as a cyberpunk game mat! Going to have to give this a shot. Cash be tight for the modeling side of my hobby as of late, so any cool ass dollar store builds like this ae much appreciated.
Looks great - another smart need-meeting un-difficult use of cheap stuff. Ding!
Yellow-line grid isn't worse than the orange one - just good in a different way. Am sure that a pile-on of buildings and scatter chases off any lino-look when you're using your grimdark yoga mat. Yoda mat, even.
Must get on a plane to check out your endlessly bountiful nearest dollar store.
Regards from Over Here - and ne mangez pas la neige jaune.
I've been trying to come up with a easy cheap idea for a gaming matt for a while thanks!!
I love those foam craft sheets from Dollorama, super cheap and come in huge stack. I did a bead bot with them they texture and shape really well.
Now I know how I’m going to make my next Gaslands track. Thanks!
Very cool idea man, i love it. If you add texture to the EVA foam and then hit it with a heat gun the textures shines through very clear as it shrinks the EVA. Every detail will be enhanced and you can see it as clear an running a knife and pen through foamboard ;-). Thanks for the video.
I see the Idols of Torment that you're showcasing behind you. I hope you plan on putting out some more content for that as you release content for the game.
This was a really cool build. Such a cheap playmat with such great results.
Ooh this is EXACTLY what I've been looking for. Thanks, Jeremy!
Could be your best project video. Superb crafting sir! So many possibilities, you had a zen experience painting the lines and stopped thinking which is sublime. 3 tones and the cracks would have looked like you wanted; basic orange, brown-orange edges and a yellowish to whitish center with varying opacity. Mb a highlight drybrush of the tile edges for the finishing touch. Great stuff dude, you just made a classic.
Just in time! Was planning on making a necromunda rable for my small apartment. So a folding mat that doesn't take up much room and can take a battering is perfect
This is absolutely brilliant
As someone busy planning a game mat this video couldn't be more well time! Thank you so much!!!!
Great...now I need to hound every dollar store in my area... thank you for this unneeded quest. 😂
Could you build something that looks like a crystal structure, think the fortress of solitude, that could be used for table top? Love your builds! Thank you
This is what I have been looking for to make a game board for Gaslands. Thank you.
What a great idea! Last halloween our local Micheals liquidated the cos play area. I scored a roll of 4mm EVA and the matching cement. I bet that matched with the dollarama eva sheets and matched will be great. Just what I need to a double sized Gallowdark board!
I like the color scheme you chose. It somehow works for cyberpunk, generic sci-fi, and grim dark.
This looks great, especially the bright 'illumination' lines. I plan on making a Space Crusade board and this will be the perfect technique.
Heating EVA foam can help it take texture. Not sure how that would affect it when it's already stuck down though.
I love seeing different materials and approaches to gaming mats. I think this one is tied for the best option I've seen with the equestrian rubber mat Geek Gaming Scenics tested.
I have also seen these tiles as interlocking floor mats at big home stores which might be an interesting way to 'tile' a mat.
If you were going to forego the folding and just have them as tiles, would you still have picked latex paint as a base coat, or would you have have stuck with Mod Podge and why?
It’s a good mat, and the price is right, but first I’m going to go check out that sponsor - I really like Archvillain’s stuff here
You can carve textures with an xacto blade and use a heat gun to open the lines up to be deeper. That is how cosplayers use foam. Also with those deeper textures you can use flex seal on the mat which is rubbery and even more durable.
I've been looking for a good way to make a large grass mat, this might do it, looks like I'm heading to Dollarama in the morning
Very cool idea. But now that you mentioned the old floor look I can't unsee it. Would love to see more Eva foam builds as I got alot sitting around and could use some ideas
This looks like an AWESOME build. Perfect for my needs.
Along with using a heat gun to get the texture like others have said, you can also use it to heat seal and prime the foam so you don't have to use as many layers of paint and speed up your production time. You can also use Mod Podge or Flexi dip to seal it.
I really like your version of cheap durable battle map mat. This technique work well for futuristic theme, but how would you approach a more open field ?
I can imagine zones for rocks or forests, but having too many of them in the middle might be weird? Maybe? On the other hand, having only a few might make the fold hinges too weak?
Anyway, your tutorials are amazing.
I am loving this 2 episode series. Channel Is amazing
Sound effects for the win ! Complete with pew pew.
Immediately visualized an airport or docks layout with the paint job. well done.
A good passage with a heat gun after you indent your patterns in eva foam will mak em pop really clearly.
Very cool! Going to go make an underground stone mat right now lol
Perfect timing I was just looking online to buy one for my first game and they are very expensive. I am planning to try Vincey V's Space Station Zero.
Never thought about doing this, looks soooo good man!
So wish I saw this a week ago, making a boarding action board and this would be so much more durable than the foam core boards I made. 😅
It's really cool. 👍
You're a bloody legend, mate. Keep up the amazing content!
Haven't been this early for a while. Great build, sometimes simplicity is best, and using 2 readily available and relatively cheap materials for the build is proof of that. I imagine you could build all kinds of gaming mats with this technique; from dystopian city streets like you created, to idyllic farmland and pastures, to forest clearings with a brook running through it, all readily foldable and easy to store.
I'll have to see if I can find similar materials and make one (or a few different ones) suitable for fantasy gaming.
I make cosplays out of the stuff and yet i never thought of doing this.
This is inspiring. I have old grass gw battlemat that I have been planning to do Sonething. It's in too bad condition to us as is anymore.. Putting it on the foam could be the thing.
That looks incredible. The wash and damage spots really pulled it all together. Love these types of projects, they're so inspirational!
Pls make a fantasy battle mat as well. I made One following Luke tutorial but it's a pain using minis and terrain over tufts,static grass and rocks.
Another Nat 20! Such a great, low cost solution.
I love your videos, you are one of the channels where I know that every time I click on one of your videos I know it will be good and I know I'll learn something new. Keep up the good work.
Wow, that looks great! Have to look for similar materials in EU.
I keep on being jealous of the materials you guys can get at you dollar stores. Over here in the Netherlands, stuff like thin cheap eva foam is hard to come by. The bigger chunky floor tiles are more common, but aren’t suitable for smaller detailed work. Keep on spreading cool ideas like this one though!
Look for yoga mats as they are often the same material and tend to be thinner so that they can roll up.
HELL YEAH.
That is pretty cool. Love it.
You are soo creative and I LOVE IT! I cant wait to make my own!
This fantastic! I can't wait to make my own. Thanks for sharing!
this is huge!
i'm going to try this with 1:12 scale
What a fun and effective project. I really love your traffic control linework. Now to think up something to go with the Fantasy side of things as I don't play any sci-fi games atm.
There were videos on using painters drop clothes (canvas) to make battle mats. I wonder if it is possible to use the canvas glued to the exercise mats and how well that would work.
The car noises were the best part. XD
if you score patterns into it with a scalpel then use the heat gun on it it will hold the detail forever and be crisp.
Looks good with all of your previous sci-fi terrain projects, nice work dude 👌
cool proof of concept.
Great Idea. Thanks for sharing!
I have seen some great builds from you over the years but the paving - craft foam -hinge is genius. It's a shame that in the UK the cheap foam floor mats tend to only be sold in packs and at max price. To get the craft foam to hold texture better, gently heat the foam with a hair dryer or heat gun on low.
