I am always on a quest to make my game room more immersive. This week, I tackle the wall behind my DMing area!!!!

If you stick some stones to the end of a pencil with milliput or green stuff or similar, you can do small angles, fine detail, etc. They last longer than tin foil. I've got 5 pencils with different sizes of small gravel and grit. You can also stick stones/grit to the length of pencils, bamboo tubes, hardened cardboard tubes, or similar and roll these out over flat surfaces. Saves oodles of time 🙂 Keep up the good work!
Looks good but I agree with the suggestions for the rock wall. A theater friend created a stone fireplace with pink foam. Spray paint, not meant for foam, will texture. The closer you spray, the more foam melts. You can sculpt rough field stone with rounded dips and bumps. Spraying up close tightens the area of effect to make "grout." Since it doesn't make a smooth, perfect surface it looks more natural. Of course, this takes a bit of experimentation but the process goes quick when you get the hang of it. And you're laying down your base coat of paint as you create texture. Your stucco looks perfect. Maybe dirty it up a bit? Thank you so much for showing us how to make terrain and buildings and cliffs and--everything!
Man that was a lot of disc golf discs!
Great job, Garmin! One thing you may want to keep an eye on is the possibility of condensation/mold on the inside of the window you have covered up since you have insulated it from the interior of the house.
I was going to mention this, you beat me to it.
I was instantly thinking where I could do this and immediately stumbled upon the mold issue which is kinda sad :/
I'm surprised you didn't do magnets for the outlet beams. Would have been an east on and off to get access to them.
It looks really cool! I can imagine your players will find it very immersive and pleasant to look at during sessions. I'm also very pleased with your choice of wood texture by wire brush, instead of the more cartoony pencil texturing. On a piece this big that cartoony look would probably be too much in your face or something. The subtle approach is key here.
This is great! Looks awesome!
If you are still unhappy with the stone, I think you could do a repaint to add more detail. Instead of making every stone the same grey, add variety of stone color. If you look at some images of stone walls, you will see stone variety. Some are dark greys as you have painted, but others are much lighter greys -‘d others are shades of brown and cream. I think that variety of stone color will give you the depth and more realistic detail you might be looking for.
Have you thought of something like pictures of book spines, treasure, potion bottles, or ale cups in the glass case for when you are playing? You could take them out when your need to see what's in it to plan. Or you could change them out as needed... am I in the wizards library, town pub, or the lords manor? I suppose you could build something that was two thin coats of foam into all sorts of 2d images. Funny enough you could even make the cases look like they are the windows into the land beyond.
I completely and totally love it. Hopefully we'll get a house of our own next year, and I've been watching vids like this for a while. You've got a really good and fast way and it looks GOOD. Thanks!!!
Dude, it's awesome. You did a great job. Thanks for sharing your process.
I think it came out AWSOME. Puts a lot of great ideas on my mind!!!
Looks great brother!! Amazing job! I’m gussing your not done. The counter tops need some wood looks or something and the inside of the cabinets need some slight work.. I’d paint the inside cabinets black. But looks great! Good job
It looks great, particularly the stucco and wood combination. If there's an issue with the stonework, I wonder if it's because it's not 3 dimensional enough. It looks quite flat. I wonder if actually cutting out he individual blocks, texturing them more heavily, and then reassembling would help to make them more like rough stones? Haven't tried it, though.
That's a really fun idea - next you could try a treatment for the inside of the cabinets and the counter. I seem to recall that Prof DM had a video on the making of his stone wall that you could check out if you were going to do another piece.
That looks amazing!!! Would love to see you do something with the countertop and cabinets 😅
I also thought that adding a drop back to the inside of the cabinets would tie it all together. Right now the plain painted backdrop inside the cabinet sticks out and makes the foam work look out of place.
Looks sooooo good in person!
Great job! That looks like a great game room!
Nifty!
Great stuff, Garmin! For large scale stuff (rock texture) you can take the sheet of XPS outside and put the side you want textured down on the ground and then walk on the backside of it. You’ll have to scrape some small bits of gravel out after you’re done, but it provides a really nice, natural texture when you’re done. (Obviously don’t do this on grass, lol. Probably the concrete driveway/sidewalk, asphalt of the street, or gravel if you have any nearby).
Awesome crafting!
Great job on the build. I would love to have room for a setup like that. As far as you not liking the stones. I think adding some color variations would bring out the individual blocks & enhance the look.
Was already going to do this for the back wall in my classroom... except I worry about changing rooms and wasting the few hundreds and hours spent on this.
It looks fantastic!!
Turned out great
Really cool.
Cool project!
!!PHENOMENAL!!
The thing about the window is that its off-center, not the fact its open
Cool video, Garmin! I plan on doing something similar. Suggestion: since you used 2 inch foam, try carving the perimeter of each stone to give it a more three-dimensional look. That’s my plan, anyway. - Rick, USMC
I wonder if you would like the rock better with washes?
I love it!
Awesome video! Such a cool idea, turned out amazing. Really enjoyed the vlog style.
This looks awesome! Great work!
The three white backing squares are very distracting. Maybe all the backings could be 'stuccoed?'
