    In B4 "shoulda made trapdoors functional" comments....didn't want to, that would really be pretty pointless ;P
    Hope you guys enjoyed this vid, and I hope it helps all those asking about doing wood texture on foam. If you wanna pick up some tools & supplies to tackle this build don't forget you can help out the channel in the process by grabbing stuff via my essential equipment links: bit.ly/EssentialEquip

      Pointlessly awesome, you mean! Just kidding, way too much work for practically no payoff, and would probably make the whole thing far too fragile for actual (or at least, repeated) use.

      Ok what about making a working mini guillotine
      Definitely more plausible

    • @beardlyinteresting
      @beardlyinteresting 6 лет назад +1

      OK, so that's a no on the trapdoors, but why do the condemned have their weapons drawn. Surely they should be disarmed with their hands tied behind their backs.
      2/7 literally unusable, the wood texturing is nice though.

      Ian you could actually make one out of a hobby knife blade, but then it may be dangerous

    • @BlackMagicCraftOfficial
      @BlackMagicCraftOfficial  6 лет назад +8

      I'm not going to spoil things and let you know I made a guillotine video for next week............but if I were to do something like that, I'd have the same mindset, that making it function would be pointless for game purposes so I wouldn't bother.....not that I've done this or anything....nope. Stay tuned for next friday's episode, it will be a TOTAL surprise.

    THANK YOU for steering away from brown wood! Your dark brown wood is the only thing you do that I found annoying, so I literally cheered when you stopped the video to go outside and check out the fence boards. Lovely work as always. For not being a knot guy your nooses aren't bad at all.

    If you want to skip the trap door(s) on your tree, set the beam a bit higher so there is room for the barrels/stools that the hangman will kick out from under your minis' feet.

    Sorry for late comment - maybe this is answered elsewhere but I can't find it. You frequently talk about a 'golden brown' for your new wood painting technique. Your golden brown looks quite a bit more orange'y than the CraftSmart "golden brown" color. Which paint color are you using for this technique?

  • @seangere9698
    @seangere9698 5 лет назад

    To make a noose for miniatures I use a small jig I made with some MDF board and two finishing nails. Just hammer in the nails enough to hold and as far apart as you need the noose and wraps. From here there's two ways of doing it. The first and easiest way for those that aren't good with knots is a simple overhand knot. Make sure that the knot is at the back side of one of the nails, now cut off a length of the twine and wrap in up to 13 times between the two nails and glue the ends to the wrap and cut off any extra from the ends. I use superglue on the end of a toothpick for this so it can slide up and down freely for now. Now loosen the overhand knot so you can take it off the nails. Slide the wrap to the knot or tighten the not till you have the right size loop you need and glue the wrap to the knot. This will stop it from sliding off and it will look like an actual hangman's noose.
    The second way. Like the first coil the twine between the two nails, only if you know how to make a hangman's noose, and on the back coiling (going back towards the noose loop) and make your 13 wraps and finish as you would for a noose. Once done carefully slide the noose off the nails and feed the tail of the twine through the loop on that end and lightly pull the loop at the other end to tighten the noose not and done. You can adjust the loop to the size you need at this point and use glue, superglue or pva or whatever you prefer to lock it in place.
    Maybe I should be making videos on how to do all these small detail pieces. Don't have the right camera or much time really to do them though. So I will just give my advice when and where I can I guess.

    Curious which specific colour are you using for the drybrushing? My Craftsmart "Tan" looks is a lot more gray than what you're using. Is it Suede or Khaki or something like that? Thanks for all the great videos, it's been a real help getting into this new hobby.

    • @BlackMagicCraftOfficial
      @BlackMagicCraftOfficial  5 лет назад +1

      It’s either suede or khaki. Don’t remember which because I use both often. But for this its one of those, whichever is the lighter of the two.

  • @nielssmed2388
    @nielssmed2388 4 года назад

    Awesome job and vid as always! How do you avoid the planks getting too grainy when using the brush? Mine are constantly grainy, with small flecks/grits of the foam, rather than straight lines :'(

    • @BlackMagicCraftOfficial
      @BlackMagicCraftOfficial  4 года назад

      The technique works better in one direction than the other. Foam has a "grain" direction and you want to bursh with the grain rather than across it. Practice on some test pieces to get a feel for identifying the best direction. Sometimes it just happens though depending on the foam.

    @bobbertbobby3975 3 года назад

    Ok, just first lemme say im a fan.
    I really like your vids and I think you have a great talent for this.
    But...i feel like you need to be careful with how you look for inspiration for your painting.
    I saw that you looked at your old fence for the color...that looked like old pressure treated lumber. It goes VERY grey with age. and the grey is super intense.
    and frankly i feel like you went a little too grey on the gallows.
    But that being said there are woods that do turn a more grey tone with age naturaly.
    So its not like im saying its wrong or that you messed up.
    But just bare in mind that sometimes that old wood you see...is what old "modern" wood looks like.
    A gallows was usualy custom built for every hanging. Unless of course they did hangings like every day. Guess then they would keep a set.
    But usualy they were built relativly new so a less aged look might have went good. But as said..its cool i really liked it.
    and i woulda loved to see some sort of mechanism to release a trap door to make it actuaslly a working gallows.
    Also have you made a guillotine?
    maybe a whole tourture cell torture dungeon thing would be cool Iron maden the rack and some chains hanging on the wall...that sorta thing?

  • @jamesshearer3936
    @jamesshearer3936 4 года назад

    Very good coverage on the basics of "woodwork". I have gotten very good results on finishing by using a brown rather than black mod podge base. I use Apple Barrel Brown Oxide. A 1 part paint to 2 parts 'podge gives a nice medium brown undertone.

  • @HorzaPanda
    @HorzaPanda 6 лет назад

    Now I want to walk around my Grandfather's farm to see what colour all the fences are. I suspect colour will depend a lot on what the wood has been treated with, like creosote/Creocote, especially as some of those treatments are "wood" coloured XD
    Of course, age and type of wood are. Dad's hen house for instance, is a shade of brown, but that's because it's former pallet wood coated in a shit ton of creocote >_>

    • @BlackMagicCraftOfficial
      @BlackMagicCraftOfficial  6 лет назад

      Yea, that's the thing. You will find dark brown wood, usually because it's been stained with a persevative. I tend to imagine things like gallows in fantasy settings to just be natural wood, even if they were using some sort of stains (on houses and such) I doubt it would be used on something like this. The big factor is also what type of wood was used and how long it's been around for. Cedar for example silvers very quickly, where as spruce/pine/fir goes through a bleaching cycle first and takes much longer to go gray.....point of the story is, yea, totally go check out some old wood, see what you find, use that as inspiration! If nothing else you've had a fun day walking around a farm :)

  • @mikeg9493

  • @willkeir155

    So brown weathered wood you actually never use a darker brown? Just a Golden /Brown? Then light Tan dry brush and a brown/black wash?

  • @TheRunesmythe
    @TheRunesmythe 6 лет назад

    I think the thought/problem behind painting brown wood is that most people either don't know or have forgotten that wood only retains those brown colors for a very short amount of time if its not stained and/or sealed; left exposed to the elements, that brown gets leeched out rather quickly and is replaced with that grey/bleached look. So people just slap a couple of different browns on and call it a day, which is fine if you're looking to make something look like new wood but where's the fun in that?

    • @BlackMagicCraftOfficial
      @BlackMagicCraftOfficial  6 лет назад +1

      Really, new wood (most species of softwoods used for timber construction) is naturally a very light yellow/gold, not dark brown. Dark brown really only occurs from stain/preservative, or in hardwoods like walnut that aren’t used for heavy construction. So any dark wood in miniature buildings really implies painted or stained wood if you’re forced to think about it. It’s fine to do that, but it’s fun to try and make things at least a little authentic looking sometimes....mostly because carved grain detail really gets lost when painted very dark.
