Nice job. What about making smoother rocks? Round type? Like I'm trying to make a diorama of Devils Den in Gettysburg. How should I go about that? Thanks
Start with a harder foam like XPS/EPS foam and use an extendable box cutter to carve and hope a geometric form and then get some 120 grit sand paper and smooth out the edges. You will learn a lot just attempting that. It’s a good place to start, then follow my concrete painting tutorial for the rocks
Super cool! Do you wear a mask while working? Is there odor? Thanks 😊
Sometimes, not too much Oder if there is a fan
Play it from 3:53 to 4:10 and sing this out loud…

Fill in the blank I guess
Good use of the bubble foam. People keep giving me this stuff and I never know what to do with it all. Thanks.
There’s really a lot you can do with it
@@OilersWorkshop it always seemed like such a hassle to cover up the bubble texture.
I hav used it as filler but not much beyond that.
I will have to try hitting it with the heat gun.
@@reddogterrain cover it with foam coat, mod podge, wood glue and then add your own texture over it
@@OilersWorkshop cool cool.
I will give it a shot and show you what comes of it.
Will spray paint cause the Styrofoam to melt ...I'm asking before I try and I think I've run into this in the past
So if you coat the foam with 1 or 2 layers of glue(mod podge) THEN ad a layer of sand, you should be safe to add thin coats of spray paint.
OR you can do the coast of glue and sand and then HAND paint with acrylic paint a dense bottom layer first, THEN spray thin layers of spray paint.
All I’m explaining is just that you need to coat the foam in a barrier first(glue or acrylic paint work fine in this instance)
Speaking of that, many years ago I "helped" my son build a diorama of the Alamo, and lightly dusted the bare (didn't know better at the time) Styrofoam pieces with spray paint (lightly, not a heavy coat) and it melted just enough to give it a really cool worn and crumbled look.
Super cool tutorial 👍 I will definitely use it for my future Dioramas I do model cars and Gundams, love your channel and all the work that you do..thanks for sharing all your techniques 👍
You’re awesome! Thank you
So my only suggestion would be to add paint to the modgepodge, because of the sand flakes off over time you won't see the white Styrofoam underneath.
I haven’t painted the sand yet, this all gets painted, but that’s an excellent suggestion
I would love to see them painted!
Maybe…someday…in the far far future…
One cool material I discovered for covering up the bubble texture is iron oxide powder. It's extremely fine, but works really well especially if you goal is to make your terrain magnetic. I'm going to try making some rock spires like you did but use the oxide instead of sand.
That sounds amazing, thank you for the tip, I think I have a bag of that laying around that I used to make rust once
I've never made anything diorama-y or crafty...so I wanna make a giant asteroid, cause hey; it'd be hard to screw that up, right?!?! And I wanted a realistic sandy texture and your video looks to be exactly what I'm after. w00t! Thanks for the in depth step by step!!!
Hey! You’re welcome
Nice video! I’ve got several project on the table and this is a great method! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
You had my anxiety way up with that box cutter, glad you didn't cut yourself. lol. Great tutorial as always.
Lol I’m good
Thank u sir for sharing. Always enjoy watching your videos. Have a great day. 👊🏻🍻
You’re welcome thank you
I do reckon this will work fine, does the mage podge always look that way with sand?
Yeah but it’s not painted, so you still need to paint it
Nice job...
Many many thanks

Thank you! This was the video i was looking for! You answered all my questions in one video!
Glad I could help!
Awesome stuff. There a chance to see something akin to Hoth base or a Hoth cave?
Thank you, I am working on a hoth project on the background, stay tuned
The glue gun was not to hot? I ask because thinking an melting the foam. I don’t have one that come with variable heat.
I used a LOW TEMP one, usually the small cheap ones are low temp
@@OilersWorkshop thanks for the tips
Damn. that's pretty cool. Thanks oilers
Thank you
the part i came to see is the part you didnt do.
Cool, if you’re talking about paint there is an entire playlist dedicated to how to do it all called “the tiny art experiment”…
Cool terrain
I love watching your videos!
Thank you
