Trying my hand at making some street tiles meant for a town or city, and I have to say they turned out wonderfully! The process of using silicone is a little messy but the detailed bricks are definitely worth-while. Plus you can make roads and streets quickly without baking anything or losing details in just the foam alone. Part 2 will be release down the road! ;)

As someone who uses this product at work weekly, here's a bit of a warning for everyone now picking this stuff up. Do not rinse silicone caulking down the drain. It will not dilute enough and it will bind to your pipes.
Thank you for the warning! I probably should have specified throwing away the silicone rubbed off and then pour the water maybe on your lawn or over some rocks outside.
Oh hey there. Nice tiles!
Ahh!! Why thank you.
These videos are so wonderfully laid-back. It feels nice to find a crafting channel that’s willing to just chill out and do its one thing really well.
Aww thank you. I'm glad to provide some relaxing entertainment haha.
Amazing Video! It was a pleasure working with you for our debut project, looking forward to working with you on the next one.
Thank you! I very much look forward to it as well 😊
I love watching RP Archives and Black Magic Craft get remixed into your builds. The iterations of design are amazing. Thanks for the tips and kick the next video to the curb as soon as you can
I hope to do the GOATs justice so I'm flattered by your compliments :) We're aaaalready on the road again to the next video.
I've been loving combining BMC and your techniques for some amazing terrain builds.
BMC definitely has the most practical techniques!
The old sprues to tone down your dry brushing after dipping! GENIUS.
Thanks for another great tutorial! My party is headed to Baldur's Gate, so these tiles will be perfect
Your videos are extremely high quality.
its a shame RUclips doesn't like creators who don't make them money.
Thank you! And yes, I'm trying very hard to befriend the algorithm haha.
@@raecheldoes I mean you can watch other people's content for "reactions" and if anyone complains just stalk them
I love your magnet jig. A great alternative to RP Archive's 3D printed one (though that one's great too). And I love your cheap alternative to the Shifting Lands too. This channel is an awesome complement to RP Archive.
I actually think my magnet template is based on RP Archive's old paper template, so all credit goes to him! And yessss I'm all about the cheap alternatives!
Thats a fast and confortable way to make a thousand bricks!! And i love to see who all youtube combine ideas.
PS: you should try the transparent silicon one day. But, before put on, you should add a layer of modpoge over the painting if you dont want the silicon to turn green/yellow in a few days
Yes! It actually goes by very quickly. Silicone is in my roster now so chances are I'll find a project with which to use it in the future, so I'll definitely keep your advice in mind.
That car had quite the movement speed!
It was going SO fast, even the spare tires appeared to spin! =^[.]^=
This idea was so creative. I ended up making about 30 of these tiles with your silicone method! I actually had some brown silicone laying around and highly recommend it for others looking to try. After a black modpodge base coat I actually decided not to paint them all because the black on brown was already 80% of the way there which is good enough for me
Oh this is so awesome to hear and I'm overjoyed that you found it useful!
I absolutely love your wordplay. I am a pretty punny fellow as well. The crafting you do with words as well as with physical materials are top notch. I just finished watching all your videos and am looking forward to the next installment. Keep up the amazing work and don't ever apologize for being clever!
Thank you so much! Feedback like this helps add fuel to the fire knowing what elements of my videos people enjoy. I will absolutely take this to heart and I very much appreciate your support!
These turned out magnificent! awesome work 🤘
Thank you, thank you!
Another great crafting video! The last road tiles I made were a few years ago, and I carved all the cobblestone by hand… so yeah, I’ll have to try this method next time. Seems waaay better.
Thank you!! That is an admirable feat if just for the commitment of doing multiple road tiles! But yes, I can attest to how much faster this probably was 😂
Fantastic video as always, and I'm very excited to see how you've made magnetic curbs. I liked RPA's curbs/roads but as someone less talented and with less time, having add-on ones just seems easier and more flexible for less work. Anticipation!
Yes I agree! I adore his street tiles and I wanted to take the flexibility factor a step further. Hopefully they're easier to do as well!
Wow, so good and you make it look so easy as well :D I don't know if you take requests but could you look into snowy terrain? My mum has her little christmas town she likes to decorate after Halloween and snowy hills/woodland + these street tiles would be absolutely perfect for her. Seems like a cool way to share the hobby :)
I will absolutely add snowy terrain to the list of future videos! A little snowy village would be great for terrain and dioramas.
I really like the GSW rollers. I'll try it with this sealant too.
It's honestly been a game-changer!
Another great video and I cannot wait for the next. This really makes me want to make some complicated streets and sidewalks for my next campaign.
Thank you! Hopefully these are middle ground enough so it doesn't have to be as complicated haha.
That patron shoutout was very clever, great video! The paintjob looks great!
I'd love to see you do a more general video on some of the techniques you use. I understand you use a lot of methods from Blackmagiccraft and RP Archive, but even then it's worth showing off, I think.
Thank you! And yes I've been considering how I might approach it without completely rehashing, but it's definitely on the list of potential future videos.
Ma'am.. I'm going to need you to stop inspiring me for like 5 minutes.. I need to figure out storage before I make more stuff.. j/k.. Keep up the great work as always! Super happy to see more videos from you!
Shrinkage? I was in the pool! - George Costanza.
AWSOME! I love this
Holy moly this is so cool! Love it!
Woohoo thank you!
Nice, I quite like the muddy gradients of editing Raechel. It gives a similar result to how I base wasteland tiles in my 40k minis, I use layers of textured acrylic mediums and bleed in inks and washes as they dry. I think the smooth fading patches of colour variation look great from a distance.
Also that steel and scale game looks cute, it's like brotherhood of steel faces off against high fantasy :) two of my favorite things combined
Yes that's what I was thinking! If they're seen from a distance without bother and it saves a bunch of time then that would probably be worth it. And yes! Steel and Scale definitely melds those two worlds beautifully and I'm looking forward to seeing their book come to life!
Another great video! So many helpful techniques!
great work, cuz! Love your stop motion as well
Hehehe thank you!
A great tutorial, and your layout looks beautiful.
Thank you 😊
Thanks I 'all try it. 👍
Very informative vid! I'm really interested in trying this. Hopefully i can find some less expensive rollers though!
There are some decently priced rollers on Etsy--you've just got to find someone who also ships cheaply or is locally-based!
Wait, wait. The tiles are cool but what was that dry-brush trick you were doing with the sponge?
Cool 👍🏽
This is a great idea, thank you - I've been looking for a material to create thin, textured tiles; dental plaster is too thin/brittle. 3d printed resin too unstable (it curls up over time). Clay shrinks too much. But it's just possible that a layer of silicone and a textured roller could be exactly the thing I've been looking for all this time! Thank you.
It is hard to find something that meets those parameters without warping, so hopefully this does the trick for you!
Yay, sponsor!
So there were no adhesion difficulties with the silicon and foam?
Absolutely none! They stick beautifully.
Thank you! It would seem that this could potentially be a game-changer for dungeon tiles as well.@@raecheldoes
Could a jig be made where the roller spins and you just push the block through?
I don't doubt it! But I think it would take me longer to make a jig than to just roll them all out haha.
Neat tiles, but I'm curious: why the silicone? Wouldn't the roller on foam achieve the same texture? What does the silicone add?
You can absolutely use the roller directly on the foam! The reason I do the silicone though is that the foam doesn't take the impressions as easily or with as much detail as the silicone does. And especially after painting, you risk losing a lot of your work since the pattern doesn't sink nearly as deep.
Makes sense. Thanks for the reply, and keep up the good work, your videos are always interesting and entertaining :)@@raecheldoes
Hey! Love your vids! Could I ask you where you get those pink boards? Never seen those in Spain! Thanks
They're called XPS foam boards or insulation foam boards. I get them from my local Home Depot and they're pink here in Canada, but I've seen people in the UK use black foam and blue as well. Hope that helps!
@@raecheldoes Thank you!!
Now if only I could cut a square on the proxxon!
OKAY! I've bought my rollers and backed the kickstarter.
I've found a carpenter's square to be very helpful with cutting squares! It's completely taken the 90° struggle out of making squares for me, so maybe that would help?
Very cool stuff- gives me a lot of tangential ideas, so thanks for that! But I couldn’t help but wince at the presence of neodymium magnets. I can just see myself accidentally laying my phone down beside one of these tiles & completely bricking the hard drive or something. 😬
That's totally fair since they're easy to forget about. Honestly, you can probably just tape or tack the pieces together in a pinch. RP Archive has a method he used to use with toothpicks or cardboard to put his modular stuff together so that might be a good alternative!
Weird question but are you in any way related to MTQcapture?
You know, you aren't the first person to ask me this, but no I'm not haha.
Unfortunately, I am also prone to shrinkage
😂
This vid felt a little cobbled together. 😬🙃
It's definitely been a rocky road getting here 🫠
