I was a big fan of your original under dark terrain, but this is next level stuff here. I’m really enjoying the direction your craft has taken.
Bill, I believe that this is one of the best things you've ever done!!!
Holy shit. It's indie rockband frontman Wyloch. (Guitars sold separately). Just kidding, dig the new hair!
I drink free range wheat and kale IPAs now too.
Be careful woth that kind of foam and heat. You know, Wylock, but just saying for others. The fumes are highly toxic, so do it in a well ventilated area, and maybe try to cover your mouth or something. A chemical grade respirator is best.
is it weird to say that this is your best video yet? all of yours are good but theres something special about this
Pro tip. You can bake sculpey multiple times. So if you bake it and it's not strong enough, just bake again. Love the video as always. Great work!
It's strange to be nostalgic looking at blue pasta noodles but here I am
You sir are a true artist
Looks like Syrim's Blackreach too.
Sculpey doesn't really have a shelf life that I'm aware of. My dad once found a cardboard box filled with his old Sculpey and, while it had hardened up over a period of about ten years from being exposed to the air, he was able to revive it simply kneading it (took a lot of kneading, though!). I've also used baby oil to help speed up the process on some old Scupley I had.
I actually kind of like the aesthetic of torn styrofoam/expanded foam as rocks! It looks like gravelly cliffs, but it's important to add other textures cause it's very bulbous and circular
Sick build! Really puts me in the same mental space as the miconid colony.
Have you ever had problems with longetivity using pasta or other organic materials? Do they rot/fall apart more quickly than non-organic alternatives or are they sealed in there pretty well?
Nah, been several years and the pasta is totally fine.
Most moms have macaroni art from kindergarten that can be 30+ years old. Keep it dry and seal with PVA glue or mod podge and it should last nearly forever.
Excellent work. You've inspired me to take a stap at terrain making myself ^^
Definitely something for me to keep in mind when my group ends up delving into the depths of Khyber.
Awesome build! This was great to watch, very cool stuff.
Stupid youtube keeps changing my notifications from all to personalized...
Going to be running a spelljammer campaign and that heat blasted styrofoam is perfect for asteroid scatter terrain ! Thanks for the idea !
Good thing you made this video, you can claim BG3 as a rax deduction (professional library, well it is under Australian tax law)
yo your new hair cut looks fantastic.
i LOVE the underdark in bg3. i've spent a lot of time just admiring it in game. i'm still not even done with act 1.
WOOHOO!!! Thank you once again for another great video!! \[T]/
Outstanding terrain pieces, the use of Oyster shells as a type of shelf mushrooms was ingenious
Wyloch, an alternative to toilet paper for papier mache is paper towels, depending on the brand they don't tear easily even if fully soaked
Gotta get some edge glow fiber optic cable for the next one. Stuff is perfect for glowing shrooms.
This is pretty damn sexy. And just what I need, given how my adventure's probably going to end up in a similar world. I haven't even watched it yet and I'm just going to give it a thumbs up.
Great video, Wyloch! What are your thoughts on peeks into mind flayer colonies? It made me think of your video on that and how much gooier they imagined them.
Actually I think the nautiloid was bang on what I always imagined
Awesome, your work never ceases to amaze me. :)
Geee 😂 This is the best looking terrain you have ever done. IMHO one can tell you really like the underdark 😅
This is one of your most striking crafts yet
Wyloch - fabulous work as always. I was wondering what you were doing with the hot glue circles, but when I saw you glue them into the side of the foam, It all came together! Just a thought - I got some UV reactive paint from Amazon a few months ago. It's transparent when dry, unless you shine UV. I wonder if you could mix it with regular paints, to get it to light up when you shine the UV light on it? Any experience? Also - you heading to MythicCon this year?
I am! See you there?
@@WylochsArmory yessir. I’ll be giving a class and have a vendor booth there.
Oh mate, this looks so cool. Makes me want to redo all my underdark terrain haha. Thanks for the video 👍.
Yess, Ive been waiting for this!
I just found your RUclips channel and OMG I live your mind of creativity. You really woke up my forgotten creative side. It's been dormant since my daughter passed away. Thank you for your inspirational channel. Please keep up your wonderful channel. You affect people more than you realize. Very big hugs.😊
Take care
Hey can you try to feature some of your builds in your merch? Thanks
Any suggestions?
Stoked to see your take on this terrain 😁 I was just starting my workday with rewatching the tomb of horrors supercut for the millionth time and instead a brand new Wyloch episode drops? Today's gonna be a good one!
Amazing! Looks just like the game. Well done and thanks as always for the inspiration.
Your hair looks crazy. Your mushrooms look awesome
Oh, man, Wyloch! You're constantly outdoing yourself and it's the best thing ever!
I am so glad that you continue to be inspired by the Baulder's Gate series with 3.
The underdark is really a beautiful place to see. I love the vibrant colors and tree sized mushrooms.
Love the pumice-like texture on that foam
Awesome!
I need more Wyloch ASMR content to fall asleep to.
Have been playing BG3 and this is an awesome build. Really love how creative you are with your materials.
Do you have a video on how you made that lighting set up for your desk?
I do not. It's 6 foot aluminum strips from the hardware store and ribbon LED lights from amazon.
Thanks @@WylochsArmory
I'm really enjoying the Baldur's Gate builds. I'm going to try my old hair dryer on some shipping foam and see what happens.
My favorite table top builder
Those were some great looking shrooms my friend.!.!.!.! LIGHT' EM UP.!.!.!.! Lol
Wonder what would happen if you apply that primer GOD'S GIFT TO HUMANITY (that sticks to everything) on that mat that NOTHING sticks to?
You have outdone yourself! I love this! Vibrancy is definitely a lost feature of this hobby of late.
You're one of my favourites, Wyloch. So eloquent and relatable.
I'm not usually one to gush.
Mate these look absolutely fantastic, love it! Some of your finest work. Beautiful!
I recently played bg3 and I am 100% sure that Larian got inspired from your videos to reimagine the underdark. When I saw the pasta plant I start yelling "these are the Wylock's pasta plants! And they are blue too!".
Cheers from italy, man! Great vid as always!
Mind blown! That is genuinely spectacular stuff, a feast for the eyes!! This one of my favourite projects of yours to date, I absolutely loved it!
How well I remember the GDQ module series, including the Descent into the Depths of the Earth! Gygax's magnum opus led to the Drow city of Erelhei-Cinlu, and beyond! It took most of a year of steady play to polish off that mega-quest. =^[.]^=
This came out great...... also who doesn't love a A.S.M.R. Resin pour😀👍🏻
they look very good, if anything i thing you showed them too little, would have liked to see each individually. also, i really like when you talk about the lore of what you are making
I didn't know that about The Underdark! For perspective, the Mariana Trench is about 7 miles deep, so The Underdark is 3 times deeper!
Anyway, Wyloch, you are an inspiration, man! Thank you for each and every single video! =)
BIBBERBANGS! For some reasons I cant hear this word without hearing that confused bald dwarf say it anymore. Love it clean job as always mate.
Toilet paper is engineered to disintegrate when wet, newspaper is the best for this kind of job, it is thin and has just enough 'stretch'.
Make the dome from layers of newspaper and PVA glue then give it a coat of Acme Universal Terrain Resurfacer (acrylic sealant, the paintable type) using a wet (cheap) wall painting brush (1 inch seems the best). You can add just a little water to the sealant but don't overdo it or you just get paint. You can mass-produce hills using the same materials, get a disposable metal oven tray, bend to required shape. Cover with wet newspaper strips (to stop stuff sticking to the metal tray) then add 4-5 layers of paper (I use alternate layers of newspaper and brown wrapping paper so I can see where I am up to). If there is a large flat bit I add a level of card as the second layer, probably unnecessary but it's a habit. leave for a day or so to dry then peel the shell off the metal former, you can then make another more or less identical hill.
If using PVA it is going to warp but it doesn't matter. Leave a 'skirt around the edges of your hill or bunker and cut into this so you can bend the tabs down to glue to your base. Wait until it has fully dried before doing this step, I leave it a few days in a warm room.
I usually add the acrylic coating before basing the piece at it can also cause a little warping. For rocks I use white sealant with just a drop of black paint, for 'deserts' I use oak coloured sealant (close enough to the paint I use for this kind of terrain), for grassy knolls I use brown sealant. For texture you can tap sand or flock into the wet sealant and it sticks very well (but I do give it a coat of diluted PVA).
For walls you can cover corrugated cardboard in newspaper and give it a thinned coat of the sealant to hide the edges of the paper strips, Good for 'ruins'.
For trenches and bunkers I make a box of cardboard for the walls (whatever I have to hand, cereal packet will do but corrugated cardboard is stronger). Cut triangles of card and add them to the outside to create the basic profile. On larger areas I add thin strips of cereal card along the triangles before covering the lot with newspaper.
To hinge doors and bunker roofs I use thin cloth (the stuff sold as 'suit lining' seems to be the best, you want something non-stretchy). For the bunker roofs I cut thick card (chipboard in the US, 2mm is best). Glue the cloth strip to the under-side of the bunker roof and add corrugated card on top to thicken it up. When dry lay some grease proofed baking paper over the open roof and glue the free end of the hinge cloth to the outside of the hill. When the glue has dried apply newspaper, sealant and texture. The grease proofed paper prevents it sticking to the rest of the hill and allows you to form the edges of the room to conform to the shape of the hill. When dry paint.
I give my stuff away to less well off folks (mostly 'carers' because they get such crap wages) but I'm a pensioner so I look for the cheapest options, my time is free but I realise a lot of folks are time-poor and for them 'products' may be worth investing in. I get the sealant at a local discount shop for £1 a tube and people I know save the card for me. I buy the figures (1:32 for 3-7 year olds and 1:72 for 7 and older). They need about 30 soldiers in 1:32 or 100 in 1:72 and in the smaller scale you also need six tanks (3 for each side) or other vehicles (Armourfast are cheap and the T34 makes a good basis for 'sci fi' vehicles). For 'knights and knaves' sets I make up carts and wagons using thin card with paperclip shafts and axles. (the Airfix Napoleonic French artillery provides six big wheels, six small wheels and six horses 'plodding along' rather than the more usual full gallop). With a couple of pieces of artillery I can make a WW2 set for £30-40 and the kids seem to like them, Sci-fi. and Knights and knaves are a bit cheaper as I make the vehicles and cannons. The card and paper terrain seems to last, one set from 20 years ago is now being played with by the recipient's own child.
I've been on a crazy side quest to build underdark themed scatter terrain the last 2 months. I used nerf darts (sliced the sides for a unique texture) as tube worms. About to finish "enoki" mushroom growths using the glue dot toadstool technique and setting the wire bases in a puddle of plaster Paris and a mini muffin tin. Bought a (real) sponge from the craft store clearance and painted orange.
All fungi is painted bright colors and will be topped with black light paint to give the bio-illuminesence look with small black light fairy lights.
The foam base build in this video helped me figure out how to hide/incorporate the lights, so THANK YOU!
why didn't you or aren't you streaming you playing BG3?. I think this fanbase would enjoy it.
Amazing! Been following you for years and your channel constantly delivers. Thanks for your effort and creativity! Them shrooms are sick!
Looks awesome!
Thanks for using styrofoam! Lots of crafters out there using XPS and then covering it in sculptamold anyway.
I love that terrain dude. Awesome stuff! I was so excited with their interpretation of it.
I had a good chuckle at the ASMR resin pour. My goodness... Great video! Awesome work.
Always enjoy your vid's. Keep up the awesome crafts, hopefully I will someday get to craft again too...
Got to admit that I am an Underdark hater. But that's mainly from memories of getting chewed up down there in the D modules back in the 80s. But nice build and certainly captures the look of BG3 perfectly.
this looks amazing. excellent techniques!
would love a video on your workspace lighting tower thing. that thing looks sick.
thanks as always for the incredible inspiration!
Panoply indeed! This game has seriously hindered my crafting...your Underdark is stunning sir!
I'm wondering how a thinned down florescent paint over your dark stone would look with a black light led for illumination. Also while yes I've seen the heat-gun/fire packing foam trick before that doesn't invalidate it as a trick worth expounding in your videos.
Just amazing! Thank you, I have learned some techniques I can use for my own project. By the way, I hope you use a mask and have ventilation when hitting those foams with heat!
The "god's gift to humanity" Rustoleum 2x is only available in the US. Leaving aside that god does consider only americans as humans, does someone have an alternative that's available in the EU?
This is so cool! I loved the Underdark in BG3. It was one of my fav locations. I played a half drow tho haha I love how your mushrooms turned out! I love making and painting mushrooms.
It's pretty close to what I imagined in my head while reading Homeland by R.A. Salvatore.
Beautiful! I'm collecting a lot of Garlic centerpieces to make a good batch of underdark mushroom terrain.
you should check out making stuff for a Coral Highlands map. Could always be reused for pirate settings, or cthulhu games
Awesome build. Really inspiring. Thank you
THe colors really pop. I like it! Also, the heat gun on the rock faces gave a really nice texture. Good move, man!
I'm working on some fey terrain right now and there are some great ideas in here. Thanks!
Super nice stuff. I enjoyed the video very much. Thanks.
So cool! Making miniatures is my hobby, side hustle and favourite genre of comfort video - I can't remember the last time I slammed a subscribe button so hard lol
Please do a video on your workbench set up. I love the arching lights & want to know how you built them. Also, how do you organize your tools?
You probably know this, but melting that stuff is really bad for you! you should put a disclaimer or do it outside so people don't copy you. loved the video tho! looks beautiful
My warhammer dark elves Has some underground cities And one surface megalopolis built around the "cave entrence" its easier to keep the slaves if darkness makes them blind first ;)
Simply the best crafting on You Tube! Love your content.
That was really neat looking and kinda threw me off guard. The way you shot it I thought you were only doing one piece so when there were 5 at the end I was like wooaah. we are gunna talk about your MISFITS hair you can't just sneak that in haha
Love these. My campaign will be going to the underdark eventually so might have to take a few of these ideas.
Love the Spyro background music.
Fantastic job, the vibrant colors make this build!!!
very beautiful terrain, I liked that you didn't use green, because green brings a normality that exists on the surface
Fantastic video again. Every time your stuff looks great.
Looks amazing, man. I think its your best yet.
An incredible result, I have only missed a couple of things, a little vegetation, static grass in the same neon color tones, around the base of the mushrooms and macaroons, and maybe some small crystalline formations
That was a great build. Will be making myself some shrooms soon!!
Absolutely stunning, its giving me inspiration and ideas to do terrain for my gloomspite gitzs for aos, also new to the hobby
Did the finished pasta bits remind anyone else of the alien 'garden' from the original X-Com game?
best asmr resin pour ever! the whole craft is so gorgeous with all the colors! I love watching your videos and other crafters too, and the colors get a bit monotonous (gray dungeon tiles) so it's a lot of fun to see some bright colors!
How many of you came here for the art, but stayed for that sweet, sweet Columbian bam-bam? 😎
Another fantastic build adding to that growing collection! 👍
You have Wyloch hair cut in the middle of the video and Miscast haircut in the beginning and end
Great creativity on display here, friend.
Awesome! As always inspired! Note to self, must get sculpt a mold.
Love to see more Underdark! It's my favorite and I can't wait to make my own
