When I was a child, I lived in Germany in a town that had a lot of original walls from the late middle ages, and some stones did slightly protrude as centuries of wear and tear brought out flaws in the original laying of the stones, causing some to slide out of place, so your build rings true for me
Over a year later, I still think this was one of your best. This build got e hooked on crafting and I'd love to see it again
4:30 it would be cool if one of those bricks could be pulled out to reveal some secret in the wall :D
Gonna do my best to replicate this. I have been crafting for 3 months as a way to help me get thru addiction.. I have adopted a few of your techniques into my library... but I wish you would have blueprints
Andy Heck
keep on keeping on man. Addiction can be beat! Best of luck
Still crafting bro?
Holy cow your technique has changed over the years! Also, I like the brickwork in this style, because to me, it looks like the buildings that look like this have been blasted by some major magic....its part of their history. Very cool.
Great build, I really like that stained glass window and tea light behind it, it really sells the build! Don't give up on that kids' stained glass paint kit - even if it didn't work here, it's still got a zillion small uses you can put it to elsewhere. For example, I've painted it over bright metallics and opalescent paints to suggest gemstones, I've painted it over contrasting bright paint colours used in monster eyes to get some weird effects, I've painted it over home-made miniatures crafted from hot glue to make them look like translucent slimes and oozes, I've painted it over the top of slimey monsters to suggest mucous membranes and such, and now that I think of it I bet this stuff could be painted over - or mixed with - pools of e.g. white glue to make quick-and-cheap puddles, basins, or pools of murky water, mud, slime, acid, and other weird substances, and I wonder what would happen if one painted the stained glass paint over those tea-light LEDs (I imagine custom coloured lights....?)
i build theatre sets for a living and one thing we use for stained glass at times is lighting gels made by Rosco...they work great
Love it. My favorite thing is the spikes... because even evil cultists in a decrepit, forgotten, demon chapel don't want to have to clean bird shit off of everything.
I used to be down on the project showcases, but the inclusion of in-progress video and image content is awesome. well done
oh ye of little faith...
Polystyrene = Imagination Fuel. You're helping a lot of folks with this vid :) I love how you, DM Scotty and Hankerin' all cheer each other on. Good souls! Peace!
We are brothers in arms man.
Every single one of these episodes gives me inspiration and a ton of ideas to work with. Love this channel
I love the eight pointed star of Chaos for the rose window. I think it subtly hints that this chapel may have a dark origin or purpose.
I'm going out today to pick up some 1/2" foamular, acryllic paint and some glue. I have everything else, I think, to dip my toes into this hobby... and it's all because of you, my friend. I think this will be something I could very easily get into. I've been binge-watching your videos starting with the oldest and moving chronologically forward (keeping up with your latest videos as well). You are very inspiring and give clear explanations of your intentions when you experiment with a new idea and I love it.
I've personally got some old lead work windows at home and the lead protrudes a wee bit. So I wouldn't worry about adding acrylic water to flatten it out.
Your build is inspiring. I will definitely use this for reference in the future. I totally agree that this is a fantasy build so you can bend the rules of structure and function with terrain.
Thanks kev, maybe we will see s cathedral in your future?
I like the different thicknesses of brick it makes it look like it's run down looks awesome
thanks :)
I've seen real building look like that that where in ill repair so It definitely looks like it goes with the story at the beginning of the video . Keep it up makes me want to get back into playing d&d again
Looks awesome! Thanks for discussing your struggles with this. I glean so much from learning what not to do as much as learning what to do. Hope to be making larger builds like these buildings in the near future!
Yea, with these project showcases I really want to make clear the issues and mistakes I faced, I think they can really help other builders.
The uneven brickwork gives the chapel character and makes it look more aged. Perhaps it has started crumbling after centuries of low-level seismic activity, or due to dark forces twisting the building?
It's neat to watch your channel for a while and then go back and watch one of these older videos. Your production quality and video-tutorial style has gotten wayyyyy more sophisticated. Your stuff from the past 2 years have been really good and I'm learning a TON about terrain and working with foam. But this one was really painful to watch. I still was able to learn some things but it was very hard to sit through. If you wanted to remake this one it would be well worth your time.
Love your channel, love your technique, super happy I found your videos. Thanks, bud.
I really like your experimentations...very useful process for new crafters.
I think it's good to show people that everybody has failures in their projects, just gotta keep trying.
Such a great point

@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial - reminds me of what TV how-to-paint artist Bob Ross (R.I.P.) used to say: "There are no mistake, just happy little accidents!" :) Also, “Talent is a pursued interest. Anything that you're willing to practice, you can do.”
Shrinky dinks for the stain glass you will be amazed
I'm a new subscriber and have to say this is awesome. I do a lot of games set in the New Orleans area and I can see my PCs running into this church in an old cemetery or out in a swamp. I will definitely be working on this soon. Great channel
That introduction was dope, man. Love the video overall - great production quality.
Thanks man, really trying to have more fun with it.
Hi bill
I really like the introduction, makes me think of Diablo.
Actually alot of old medieval european buildings have that kind of uneven block construction. It looks awesome I might try making something similar it in the future.
The tea light effects are sick!
I know this is a really old build and I am not sure if you still look at comments on these, but I discovered doll house shingles at my craft store. They had a bag of 500 for about $4 US. They look great, go on quick and you can paint them , stain them or leave them their natural wood color.
Very good intro like Bill Allan said, another justification for the look as well is that it was made by a single humanoid, it's always been dedicated to evil, and they built it in the throes of madness. I think it looks great, and your IRL theatrical justification is solid as well, the exaggeration, I think, fits DnD pretty perfectly (in most instances at least, a gritty realism game maybe not, but your standard DnD it seems perfect).
Good example of the investment fallacy; time/resources wasted in a failing investment do not justify continuing with a bad investment. Definitely a good idea to scrap the bad parts and adopt the new strategy. I think it was definitely the right decision.
Haven't run across dungeons and gluesticks, yet another reason I'm glad I watch your videos lol. Gonna have to look him up tomorrow sometime.
I actually think, at least on video, your paint work is really good. I thought that letting the color of the foam show through was a great idea, it looked really good with that glue-black layer (obviously you wouldn't want to stop there, I just mean it had a lot of potential to offer natural variance between the stone types.
A set of tiles with that diamond pattern would look really good, especially if you also matched it with the regular border along the walls.
In regards to the stained glass; have you considered a layer of PVA glue that's been diluted? The PVA dries rougher than the plastic so the marker should stick better. Also, what kind of markers did you use? I used to "paint" pewter minis with permanent markers (sharpies specifically). Another option that I would consider would be decoupage. Yes, I know you hate it, but you can use colored tissue paper, and it actually lets light through really well. My wife decoupaged our windows (we have a big bay window in our living room, and a bunch of normal ones) and it actually looks really nice when the colored lights from the gas station sign next door shines through the window at night all different colors as the ads cycle. If you're thinking of going with running LED lights anyways, decoupaging could really help to dampen the light if you feel it's too bright with more direct lighting.
Great build and great video good sir.
I really like the idea of tissue paper actually, it would work really well. I think I'll grab a variety and try it out.
Part of my problem with the markers is that I was trying to use just general purpose "colouring" markers, not sharpies, because that's the only type I had in multiple colours. I considered buying colour sharpies, but when I saw that the big pack of multiple colours was over $30 I said hell no. The whole window portion was more rushed than I would have liked so I didn't take my usual time to plan and test methods, but in the end it looks good, I just need to tweak the method to make it more practical for future builds.
The shingle idea is so smart!
mutant. a beautiful, canadian mutant.
i'm an adult with perfectly normal hobbies. i'm great at parties
Lord Inquisitor Fyodor Karamazov would like to know your location for... Inquisitorial reasons
I know I'm several years late, but coloring on plastic with a washable marker and then mixing school glue/PVA glue into the ink while it's still wet makes a great stained glass effect. My Froggy Stuff made a window inspired by Beauty and the Beast several years ago for her 1:6 scale dolls.
I think it looks amazing! I am so impressed with your patience with building the church brick by brick. I can't wait to give it a try. Thanks.
Fantastic mid euro vibe, nice blue stone touch with the colouration!!
I know you hate working with cardboard because it warps, but I think in this case the warping adds to the general dilapidated feel of the building.
There's a time and place for straight, clean lines. And then there's a time and place where it's absolutely the last thing you want. So I'd say keep the cardboard technique for just such opportunities and chalk this one up to a happy accident.
I love the subtly Nordish ornaments on the front wall. It makes the chapel look like it may have been built by recently converted vikings.
Great work. You can buy mini stained glass windows in churches and cathedral giftshops (at least you can in the UK). You can probably get them online.
Wow, I don't play D&D, or any tabletop games. But I like to build things and this was just phenomenal! I watched the whole video enthralled! Black Magic was defiantly involved LOL!
Thanks! Honestly the games are just an excuse to build this stuff, if I didn't play them I'd just do dioramas for fun.
The thin resin may not have cured properly if it was too cold in the room.
Small thin clear resins need like 80F (27C) environments to cure
Hergus ,a excommunicated priest ,rumored to have turned to the dark arts has gone missing,
it has been said he was seen lately near the sinister chapel, hergus is accused of stealing the relic called "saints scar"
with the addition of the blood of another priest, the relic can start a plague of epic size.
retrieve the relic and capture hergus, the holy order wants him for questioning.
hope you can use this:
So much like!
any time you want more brother, i have a deep lake of nice missions for you!
Kinda looks like the chapel suffered an attack, and was rebuilt out of the ruins.
Yeah, like he said the critics insisted; it probably wouldn't have been built like that.
Like you said, it could have been REBUILT in a haphazard fashion. Probably in a hurry, dry stacked instead of using mortor, maybe by unskilled workers. Impacts and ground vibration would jiggle some of the stones out of place. Anyone who has played Jenga knows that some pieces slid out more easily than others. I think his build looks great.
Nicely done! I enjoyed your in-depth review of your build. The technique you described in making the doors is an old wood working practice called "Book Matching". They look good. I had an idea for your shingles. Next time try taking several sticks of shingle stock and gluing them together length wise before you cut them out. That way you'd have strips of shingles instead of individuals. It's just an idea.
As a professional carpenter book matching is a term I now remember/know from my schooling...but something that I don't actually use in the type of (construction) carpentry I do vs furniture/art carpentry that it would be used for. Totally forgot the term, thanks!
Brilliant walk through and a really nice piece. Thanks for such detailed commentary and especially your thoughts on how you would do it a second time.
Thanks :)
Your analogy comparing terrain to theater makeup is perfect.
I thought so...it's a concept I've been trying to actively keep in mind when building/painting.
Another great video, I'm really liking the showcase style. Would be awesome to see a step by step video for the stained glass piece. I kind of get it but a more as you do it explanation video would help. Keep on craftin'!
Thanks. I want to do a tutorial on the stained glass, but feel I havn't gotten the technique quite right yet.
I really like the build and the video. The intro was a nice touch too. Thanks for sharing you successes, as well as your mistakes. Looking forward to the next one. Cheers!
Thanks, I think the mistakes are some of the most valuable bits of info.
I'm an epileptic that's never really done anything like this this is fantastic and not flashy it's great
You do great work and get fantastic results. I looks really good adn anyone would be thrilled to play with such quality crafts. Also, I really like the way your make your video, even if someone like me, an inexperienced crafter, would like even more fine detailed instruction. Thank you for making it.
Glad you like it
Your videos are very inspiring and I'm learning a lot. I will for sure try to build something in this fashion, but hopefully with my own touch. Thank you for sharing this!
Good luck!
I started your "I quit" video in the middle of the night after waking up and not being able to fall asleep again. I picked up a mini and started on the detail painting. This vid auto-played afterward. It just ended, and I think I've just finished my first mini in over 30 years. I'll put a wash on it tonight, let it sit for 2 days (til the weekend why not and make sure) then put the matt varnish on it. Enjoying the vids. I'll probably never make backgrounds, just paint minis for the fun of it (I don't play) and leave it at that. Take care.
you can buy stain glass paints at the craft store. they are really cool! they dry transparent, but with color. I use the, for water, fire, etc.
Regarding the window color, "suncatcher paint" is the kind that finishes translucent. Trying a watered down acrylic looks like, well, dull watered down acrylic. I've been messing with suncatcher paint recently.
suncatcher paint was exactly what i tried first...but it was a kit from the dollar store so maybe of the worst possible quality. it dried very opaque, but maybe i put it on too heavy.
Ya'know. The preable in many of these videos shows one fo the problems with many videogames & movies today. Why is everything about GALACTIC PERIL!?!? helping a small town find their livestock in a creepy cult-settled wood is so much more intimate & interesting.
Alcohol inks stick to plastic. Tim Holtz makes amazing grungy and rough looking ones.
Love the trial and error progress with the stained glass. I've been trying myself for a long term project, but never found anything that stuck. I'll give your plan a shot and see what I come up with. Great work all around!
Yea, I think I'm on the right path, but the method could still use some tweaking
Thanks for your channel.
I've never made any diorama, but this gives me the envy of doing some :)
In fact, I'm building a hot wire foam cutter right now.
I thing the first one with be inspired by the game Unreal 1 ...
Phil in Montréal.
Another good way of making stain glass is to use wax paper. The wax paper or parchment paper you would use for cooking and lining your cookie sheets with is what I used to use to make my stain glass windows. Just make sure that you dont use the high gloss side of the paper, for wax paper has 2 sides a high gloss and a satin side so you must paint on the satin side of the paper. And when you go to paint the parchment or wax paper what I found that worked great was to use a lil bit of water color paint. Because unlike acrylic or enamel paints are to thick, the water color is thinner and does leave the color on the wax or parchment paper. Which this gives more of a stain glass look like real stain glass which is transparent. Make sure to do light coats of water colors for they can run and bleed and keep painting on enough coats until you get the right consistency of color that you want.
And using your leather 3mm round lace (not leather wire) to make your stain glass lead iron frames glue those to the paper first before you water color the paper. There is another thing you can use instead of the leather round lace to use. YOu can get it at your craft store, its called High Viscosity Modeling Paste Texture Gel made by Liquitex, its like cake frosting. It now comes in white or black, unfortunately when I bought mine it only came in white. You can either use a piece of string and dip it in and then stick it to the wax paper or brush it on. When it dries, it turns into a hard flexible texture that will give the look of the lead iron stain glass frame. And depending on how thick you want it you may need to brush it on twice to get the desired thickness you want. You can also mix acrylic paints with it for any color you want.
Once you have all the colors you want painted on the paper with the water colors after the paint dries. Then you can lightly spray and coat the wax paper with a coat of your acrylic satin finish or AquaNet hairspray, then let it dry. I used to use the hair spray in the 80s when I would do WWII dioramas of old ruined cathedrals with stain glass, until I found the satin acrylic finish in a spray. Once it dries it will leave a nice protective coating so the water color doesnt smear off when you touch it. Or better yet to give it a nice coating you can use 2 part epoxy clear resin and then lightly brush it on over the whole piece to give it that nice glass sheen, but I would do that after you coat the water color with a sealer so the epoxy glue or water resin which ever you use wont smear th ewater color if you dont use something to seal the water color first. Then glue the wax or parchment paper to your window opening
Gorgeous build brother. Loved the setup for the video... I was thinking you were going to bust out an encounter! 😀
Hehe, glad you liked it.
freaking crazy build man! inspiring stuff
You can add small amounts of acrylic or oil paint to ecotec epoxy for a a GREAT color translucent effect. Note it must be the thick paste like paint not the thinner paint. It also reduces the workable time.
HOLY CRAP... reading the comments, I found 3 of my favorite Tubers on here... BMC, DMs and WA... how awesome is that!!!!
that's how we roll, we are brothers in arms
Fantastic work...you are a true master.
Thanks Scotty, I learned from the best ;)
mix wash with gloss varnish for the stained glass. the pigments are really strong in the Vallejo and Games Workshop washes (maybe others...I don't know) and they do a great job keeping color when you mix with the varnish like Vallejo gloss varnish. If you want a thicker glass try mixing the wash with extra thick acrylic medium. Mixing a regular paint may not work as well cause the pigment level in different. I don't know the science behind it, I just know it works. You could also try dry pigment with the gloss varnish or medium and that might work.
your design is great, and the slight exaggeration of brick placement feels awesome, trying to make things realistic is like the antithesis of Dungeons and Dragons.
yea i think in a game like d&d believability is important but realism is definitely not.
nice idea with the tee light! looks really cool with the flickering light in the window :-)
Thanks :D
also, dat intro was epic! have u ever considered doing vids giving ideas for quests (is that what u call them?) or campaigns for d&d and the like? i dont play those games, but to watch a vid centered around something like that intro would be fun, and could give me some interesting ideas for my wargaming. :-)
Another great video sir. I will definitely be using many of your techniques once I get a foam cutter to make my Frostgrave buildings.
Hope you can get your hands on one soon, it's the best. Just DON'T buy the Hotwire Foam Factory table, it's a waste of money. Side by side review coming soon. HWFF vs Proxxon
Black Magic Craft oh no...
I'm planning on getting the Praxxon cutter you an John have. That thing is a Beast!
Black Magic Craft huff cuter versus proxxon
puffy paint could work for the wires, and clear glue mixed with food coloring or washable markers would work for the glass
The green on bricks could be algae, as that's usually what it is. Love this :-)
For ur glass u could have used black puff paint for ur lines, acrylic paint with pva glue mixed gives it a stained glass look. It works on plastic also.
I actually think the bowing/warping works really well for this. I assumed it was meant to be that way, because it's a "sinister" chapel. I imagined that over the decades/centuries it had become sso steeped in the evil works of the priests, etc that the bricks *themselves* had started to bow/crumble/disintegrate under their own weight. So, yah know #headcanon. :)
Thats the story I went with, lol
Sweet! :D
Hey guys! Thanks a lot for being named in one of your videos :) It's great to know that we are not only inspired by your crafting works ... You know us as well - amazing! :D For everybody who want's to see the 'door trick': ruclips.net/video/DF50tWnTPaA/видео.htmlm3s
I really love your work, and even with the language barrier have learned a lot from your channel...even without asking my wife (native german speaker) to translate for me. Have a happy new year!...I also added your channel info in the video description.
We're working on an english subtitle solution, but this means more work and we're only two people with main jobs, family and so on ... Thank you very much for adding our channel and keep on your great work as well! :)
Outstanding! The failed experiments and subsequent solutions to problems were especially helpful, the paint job tips were sublime, and the info on the stained glass wonderful and easy to understand and follow with good reasoning behind it. Thanks very much! My one down check (and it's a very minor one) is to turn the background music volume down a bit so we can hear your narration better (the piece was a very good choice, very neutra while also very engaging and "period appropriate"). Five Stars!
I'm really glad a lot of people have found the included trials and failures to be useful, I was really hopeful that would go over well and it's something I will continue to include when it comes up.
I'm totally psyched up...I'm going to try to build some of these buildings and things. You are inspirational. :-)
Cheers!
Sooo awesome!! I wanna make one scaled up with a couple of headstones out front I love this amazing work my brother!!
When I was a kid, in art class we made "stained glass" with colored tissue paper. I wonder if that would have worked?
Freaking awesome! Thank you for talking about your fails! I didn't know you couldn't mix paint in that liquid water and am looking forward to trying that door scrollwork technique! By the way, I would have turned around and ran back to the tavern upon seeing that cemetery ..LOL
yea, watch out, the more I use that walmart acrylic water the more it fails. I think it better to just get the Envirotex stuff in the future.
Dude, you really need to start recording your sessions. I think it would be extremely fun to see you use your terrain during your sessions
I love watching your videos. I am a new subscriber so I am going through and watching them all in time. One thing I keep thinking is you would benefit from adding magnets to your foam. I've seen other mediums that they glue in small magnets and corresponding strips of metal so they hold together without being permanently bonded. I build Halloween props out of foam and PVC so I use alot of the same techniques on a larger scale. I have a few hot wire foam tools including a hot wire foam cutting table. Granted I look for a little more weathered look on my foam so I use alot of spray paint, but your concepts are enlightening. Having been an avid D and D player for years I love that I found your channel. Another thing I have to do that you don't have to worry about is making my stuff waterproof. I see that you suggest Minwax Poly, which I haven't tried, but I prefer Gorilla Glue for my foam. Its an expanding foam glue that once dried is hard and completely waterproof. Like wood glue Gorilla Glue is stronger than the material it glues, your foam will tear apart before your joint fails. Its a learning curve to figure out but it works great for permanently attaching anything to foam. Thanks for making these videos. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the comment. I have thought about integrating magnets, and really the only thing that has stopped me is finding a good source locally for quality small magnets. I could order, just havn't gotten around to it yet.
Loaf of bread shingles. I’ll remember that.
I love it. I will definitely borrow some of the techniques to build some of the darakhul architecture in my Out of the Abyss game set in Kobold Press' Midgard Campaign Setting. I will also be doing diablo inspired catacomb dungeon tiles. My style tiles that I am working on are more foam dwarven forge tiles. I like having walls despite the drawbacks. It gives me so much more area to create atmosphere. My cavern and cave set however I am sculpting originals in monster clay and going to cast sub originals in polystone like dwarven forge but use hydrostone for my home set as it is way more cost effective.
You know, with the embellishments you have the spikes in, they'd look great in more weathered metal, the bronze/copper with a heavy patina...perhaps the shingles as well...
they were painted a metal that I did a bit of rusting too...maybe it didn't turn out as obvious as I'd hoped
Was meaning the type of metal. The blue-green color that would match a lot of chapels and cathedrals in real life where it forms over the various statues and embellishments.
ah, yea, I like the idea of trying a copper roof with a heavy patina, I'll have to remember that for the next building
If you want a patina look, tabletop minions has a good tutorial on doing it.
Maybe check out Acrylic Glazing Medium, its for doing layers of glazing on 'fine art' paintings, could work well as an extender, and making transparent colors. Of course going into a art store and having them pick out a few tubes of transparent paints, would be even better. It will be a bit more expensive but likely worth it.
- on the two part water kit, I think the older you get the less effective the hardener is, so that could be why it isnt curing.
- have you ever used printable transparency sheets? they're for printing overhead projector slides that you can use on a regular home ink jet, that might have worked well for your window. you could design and print it out or maybe have just painted or used markers on it. you might be able to create the same thing using plastic like you did and a spray fixative on one side to create a layer for inks/pigments to bond to.
Also, that 5 minute epoxy could be thinned using 91% isopropyl, or denatured alcohol. it'll extend working/cure time a bit too, and have the downside of making it slightly weaker once cured.
Lastly, build looks awesome. I love the differing brick depth, makes it look like its been around forever, built on unstable ground or just built by madmen fanatics!!! I didnt know you were friends with Drunken & Dragons. I already subscribe to his channel. I love the fact you guys are getting/giving inspiration to one another and everyone on the community. Keep up the great work. I've got a can of Heady Topper I'll drink in your guys honor!
Printable transparencies is actually an idea that I wanted to try, but never ended up doing. I will probably do that in the future. I assumed I could thin the epoxy, but if I get to something bigger that I really need to do a large pour that flows well I'll probably just use the envirotex lite. Hankerin is tha man....we don't actually know each other, just like each other's channels. Cheers
I have an suggestion for you for your glass in the future use liquid glass the actual name for it is sodium silicate it stays a liquid until you spray just a little shot of co2 gas onto it you can even use water color dye pigment or the liquid water color dye right into the solution just simply mix up a small amount add the color to your liking and then a little shot of co2 gas onto the surface and it will instantly change over to an non sticky solid it's the same stuff that Hollywood moves sets use to make the fake glass that stunt people get thrown through it even sounds just like glass when you break it that why some people call it liquid glass a 1 gallon bottle of sodium silicate is about $ 70 dollars
I was hoping to see hand crafted Gargoyles! Has someone shot all the birds in your world? They always leave their visiting cards on buildings! The Chapel looks brilliant, thought provoking at it's very best.
BIG THUMBS-UP ALL DAY LONG 👍😃👍
Cool. Thank you for sharing...And again this will totally help with set builds and things. And happy new year.
Happy New year to you!
omg this intro was so cool, love your vids!
keep up the good work!
ooh! i may have to make one of these! looks awsome!
Get to work!
i got 5 days off school now, so plenty time to get one finished to my satisfaction! gonna start tonight :-)
inspiring. hope to catch another of your live streams again soon.
Cheers
Hah! Sliced bread for shingles! Awesome!
Oh man, i really like your work. i just got into terrain and props making (mainly for Warhammer, but i'm also a 5th edition DM). I love this gothic horror style. btw, TWS brought me here :)
Awesome...love TWS. May I ask specifically how you found me through them?
You are on their "similar channels" list on their youtube page. Essentially they recommend watching you :)
OMG the walls arent straight !! at about 5 min mark. the uneven bricks gives character and uniqueness and stops it from looking like a big brick. makes the piece interesting to look at
Whenever I do shingles, I'm just going to get some scissors that have a wavy cut (You can find them at Joannes and Michael's) and cut strips
So you know with stained glass the lead boarders do stick out some, at least those that are over 50 years or done the old way. So you would've been fine without the epoxy, or a light layer of it. Also old stained glass was not smooth but textured. Either way that is a nice 2.0 build. Love your work, wish I had found your channel a lot sooner.
hey been watching alot of your stuff for inspiration and help with terrain building! been amazing! when you do projects like that, how do you even ship it of you were to sell it, like ahhhhh so fragile!!! keep it up man! love it!!
I don't sell my work. I build for me so shipping is not a consideration.
Try leather working tools. The swivel knife can cut deep lines for stone work and wood planks and adjust pressure and then can do the wood grain.
Wow!!! New to your page, love it and about to binge watch lol
Welcome :) Enjoy
Awesome build, and great ambiance with the music! Only issue I'm having is that I've spent the last hour combing youtube looking for the specific Kevin MacLeod song, and can't manage to find it. Can I get the name?
the best vid youve done...
thank you sir
Is "Hillbottom" at the bottom of a hill? That would be super clever and original!
inspiring and creative work. thanks for sharing the process!
No problem :)
Actually there would be buildings like this for one reason: ground shifting. Older buildings in places like England where i grew up used sealant between stones that while holding for hundreds of years, still allows the stones/bricks to shift slightly as the ground changes, water table changes, earthquake, landslides, erosion, all kinds of weather can shift the ground below an old building which causes a push/pull on the old walls and results in popped stone walls that look very much like this, i think it is very realistic for an older stone chapel: check out these www.pinterest.com/doracheatham/the-charm-of-yesteryear/
