Yes, zip ties actually look amazing for this (Better than the elastic bands) it is a bit difficult to get them to look natural at this scale as they are quite stiff. I did use them on the engines originally and bent them to shape - this meant cutting them and using superglue to attach them. Quite fiddly and they broke off easily unfortunately. I’m going to pursue it a bit more. Thanks for watching 🙏
It seems to me that I would not be able to stick the “cargo” to the platforms. I would move it endlessly, so leaving it not glued is just right for me. Thank you for the idea!
Nice! Wargames Atlantic uses some caps (from milk and other dairy products, it seems) glued together as scatter terrain for their 'Death Field' promotion photos. Naturally, I stole the idea. Look ok as is, would be even better when detailed (a small washer would do wonders for a 'fuel barrel' look) and painted.
Thank you. Yes there is plenty of fun to be had making this type of terrain and if it is for 40k, pretty much anything could be used! 😄 thanks for tuning in 👍
I’m not sure it’ll be feasible to get hold of as many as I have! 🤣 They are from a toy telehandler from a series called DRIVEN by Battat - it is from the mini series and the telehandler is blue in colour. I have no link. I bought 6 for another project so had the pallets left over 🙂 hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍
I tried that off screen as a first attempt! They looked really nice but way too fiddly and broke off very easily with use sadly - shame because they looked awesome 👍 thanks for watching!
I got them in a super cheap clearance sale at a TKMaxx store - so chances are you won’t get the same deal. If it’s helpful they are called LED pool torpedoes and seem to be readily available online. Hope that helps 👍
I honestly get so much pleasure from fiddling around wIth, putting together and painting little terrain bits like this.
They look great
Thank you 🙏 I know! Things like this are so much fun to craft! Thanks for taking the time to watch! 👍
Zip ties would be another great idea to strap stuff to the crates

So simple for such good results
Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to tune in and comment 🙏
man these look great 😃
Thank you! I’m glad you like them! Waterslide transfers go a long way into making things look better! 😄 thanks so much for watching 🙏
Another superb video, some great terrain ideas
Thank you 🙏 glad you enjoyed it and thanks for tuning in 👍

You are welcome. I’m happy if the video has been helpful 🙂 thank you for taking the time to watch 👍

you got my sub, nicr easy video for ideas ❤
Thank you 🙏 I really appreciate the support!
This is fantastic! What a great idea and they look really good!
Thank you, I’m glad you like them 🙂 they were actually lots of fun to make! Thanks for taking the time to watch 👍
got inspired and made 9 pieces of scatter terrain out of trash, an old tshirt and legos for about a dollar each (legos are expensive)
Cool! Yes Lego can be expensive! You can sometimes get cheap job lots on eBay 👍 thank you for taking the time to tune in!
Still infinitely cheaper than buying it from Games Workshop
Nice work
Thanks! 🙂 thank you for watching 👍
Awesome
Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to watch 👍
Love the simplicity 😊😊😊
Thank you! Thanks also for watching! 👍
@@maddokminis you are very welcome 🤗
Smart move with the rubber bands.
Thanks 🙂 I appreciate you tuning in 👍
They look great. What’s the origin of the original pallet please?

Lol, never in my life have I seen a radiator bit make in into Warhammer
😄 lol! Yeah it’s pretty low tech at Mad Dok Minis! Thanks for watching mate! 👍
I wonder how easy it would be to make the small zip ties look like ratchet straps.

Hi, just a quick question where did you get the underwater toys, cheers
I got them in a super cheap clearance sale at a TKMaxx store - so chances are you won’t get the same deal. If it’s helpful they are called LED pool torpedoes and seem to be readily available online. Hope that helps 👍
I have used rubber bands on terrain before. They rot and fall apart.
That’s cheerful 🤣 I’ll enjoy them while they last! Thanks for watching 👍
careful now the scratchbashing community has some weird stigma against using real lego, looking great though!
Really?! I use lots of it! 😅 thanks for watching and for the kind feedback 👍
