Boring Desert Battles? Make Your Terrain Wide AND Tall!

- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2024
- Deserts and dunes seem like they would go hand in hand, but how can we introduce decent elevation without worrying about descending minis? These small mesas and hoodoos will certainly take your desert terrain to new heights by mixing the benefits of scatter terrain (where you can just quickly chuck these bad boys down) and modular terrain (magnets allow you to stack 'em high and make arches without worrying about them falling over!).
This terrain is super forgiving as well since your foam cuts don't have to be exact at all. Somewhat beginner-friendly!
I reference elements from my desert tiles video, which you can find here: • Roads? Deserts? What d...

Once again you break down how to do these terrain in interesting bites that can be easily understood. That, along with your humor, makes your channel something really special. Thank you for the great video.
This is very sweet and encouraging feedback that I will absolutely take to heart. Thank you very much :)
Happy to see new, excellent faces (or more accurately, disembodied voices) in the TTRPG terrain YT space!
Thank you, kindly! This faceless voice is happy to be here haha.
Awesome content. Lucky me I stumbled across this. This is Pro Level made easy. …surprisingly you channel is yet so small in subscriptions. Keep going! Thanks
I love your channel so much! Followed your steps to create this epic desert rubble terrain and my husband used it in his campaign tonight. The players loved it! Cannot wait to follow more of your tutorials.
Aww this is so sweet!! I love hearing about when people try out the instructions and it works well for them! I'm so glad I could contribute to the epic-ness haha.
This is becoming one of my favorite crafting channels. This is another great modular build taking the familiar terrain stackers to the next level of utility. I have a box of desert stackers that see regular use, but if I ever make new ones I'll be doing it your way. Thanks for sharing your creative innovations.
Thank you for the generous feedback! I'm happy these ideas might be useful to even those who have desert terrain already!
Your video quality and creativity is really unrivaled for this kind of content. I'm not even actively crafting at the moment but I will always watch your videos just because they're a fun watch. I hope you know that your effort into all the cutaways, puns, and transitions is not going to waste.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful comment. Feedback like this is super validating and helps me feel more connected to the people watching so I really appreciate it!
The production (and pun) quality of your videos is always great! I'm going to have to make a few of these.
I've got waay too many interests and waaaay too little time. But I want to add this to my list of interests. These videos are so well made and make it look like so much fun.
YOU ARE CRUSHING IT. Love this and your vids.
AH!! Thank you 🥹
The washers you refer to are "Fender" washers, they have the smaller hole. I use them for bases for weight and for transport.
Ah good to know! Thank you and I'll be sure to mention that next time.
That absolute unit of a lighter!
Yes! I saw it and had to have it.
this is beautiful work! i'll definitely give it a try.
also i love how you developed your own style, rae'chel!
specially in your script + editing hahaha (mojave was GOLD)
Thank you so much for your feedback! It's affirming and I'm stoked you enjoy my work and my puns haha. Hopefully the tutorial serves you well!
This is exactly what I was trying to figure out for my SW Legion terrain on Tatooine! Great work, I'm definitely going to use this!
Sands down the best desert terrain I've seen. Nice work, Dune! (All these puns make me both ill and happy at the same time.😬) FYI "Fender" washers are the ones with the smaller holes. Also, I find melting the spaces for the washers, magnets, pennies, etc with a hotwire 'pencil' (not sure what the attachment is called) easier than trying to carve out the space. YMMV. Cheers.
😂 I *drought* to take your feedback to heart--and I will! Yes! Another viewer let me know the same so I will make sure to mention that if I feature these fender washers in another video. And I hadn't thought to use a wood burning tool for melting small spaces rather than cutting. This I shall also try next time. Thanks for the tips!
Puns and Spaceballs, a winning combination.
I love the hoodoo that you doodoo.
I laughed way too hard at this 😂
30 seconds in and this is now one of my favorite channels
Yesssss I'm stoked
I've been waiting for the new video and I was not disappointed!
Yay! I'm so glad 😀
In the process of making these. Going well so far
Ahhh I'm so happy!!! Thanks for covering some modular terrain, these are amazing!
I love these videos, and I love seeing your channel starting to take off, you absolutely deserve it!!
Can't wait to see what you come up with next!
Your enthusiasm is contagious! Thank you so much for your encouragement and support! 🥲❤️
Love how you did this terrain 😊
Oh ya, now this where it at, best desert tutorial ive seen!
Woohoo thank you!
Well done again. 💖 Wish I could find time like you to craft. 😢
You've always got great terrain ideas. These pieces are really versatile, and they look good too!
Aww thank you! Those are all the boxes that I could hope to check off. Especially from a fellow creator :)
JUST discovered your channel! SO good!
Good looking set. And I like how you do the step-by-step without it taking forever. Well done.
Thank you! I try my best to keep it concise so I'm happy that comes across!
Excellent quality video thank you for making this
Quite an interesting video. It's giving me ideas for my boards. Thanks.
great video as always, doing excellent work.
Yay, new video! Thanks, that was another fun one
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful job, as always!
Thank you thank you for your support!
Super cool, love it
I'll assume that's a giant lighter... and that you don't have tiny hands. Nice rocks.
I am secretly a gnome, please don't tell anyone.
I really dig all the geology puns....even if they are tor-able and un-silicic-ed.
Well I'm glad the puns tran- *slate* well, so I *shale* be continuing!
@@raecheldoes Good one! Just don't take you pun skills for granite.
I will have to save this video for when I finally get around to making my wester terrain. Thanks!
You're very welcome! I hope it serves you well in the future haha
I salute you for sharing this knowledge as that looks like it was an absolute *mesa*!
Oh I had to *dry* real hard to keep my desk clean!
Your channel appeared at exactly the right time for me! I just bought a bunch of foam to make a board with a lot of extra to make scatter and hills, there's so many ideas in here that I hadn't seen before!
Woohoo! That sounds like wonderful timing and I hope the ideas serve you well :)
This was awesome! I love the system and the product looks great!
Thanks so much!
ive been watching RPArchives for a long while now, but never actually got into terrain building. it was always a bit intimidating. Something about your style makes this seem so much more approachable. Thank you!
Yes! RP Archive's builds are meticulous and precise--which I personally really enjoy and I understand that it can be harder to get into. I was hoping to find a middle ground with this video so it sounds like maybe it came across!
Awesome build! I think this would be a great candidate for RPA's trick of using steel can lids instead of washers.
Ooh yes especially for the much larger pieces absolutely! Time to eat some chili...
Thanks. Beautiful.
Ooh, desert terrain is perpetually down quite a ways on my to-do list, despite how useful it'd be for one of the games I'm running. This is inspiring me to bump it up quite a few spots after I finish one of my current projects...
The eternal struggle of picking which project gets the top spot on a creator's to-do list 😂 I'm honoured if I can even bump something up one spot!
You know, it'd be really cool to see this sort of thing done with magnetic trees and red clay (and perhaps some sparse grass?) As to emulate the red bluffs you'd see in Mississippi, or the redwood forests of California. Or even the Australian outback!
I think it'd be a nice mix up from the typical forests and hills you usually see in this hobby!
For sure adding this to the list of future projects! Mayhaps a desert pt 3 because I do agree that there are still more elements to a desert that could be included to make it more vibrant!
I love these! you have a new subscriber!
Woohoo!! Welcome, welcome 😊
First video of yours I've seen. I subscribed! Even with the puns!
It's really a love or cringe thing at this point 😅
I think the white areas are caused by the grout being somewhat hydrophobic, it's probably repelling the top layer of paint off it on the first pass. I quick spritz of IPA over the grout might break the surface tension of the dry grout, and allow your paint to stay in place. Just a theory... I've found grout to be a bit finicky at times in my own work.
Ah okay thank you for the insight! I have tried spritzing with alcohol on my desert boards, but I didn't try using it after or amidst painting. I'll keep it in mind for future attempts.
look into getting some Forstner Drill Bits, used for cutting precise, flat-bottomed holes in wood. Should be able to use them by hand if only cutting foam.
Ah thank you for the suggestion! Someone else also suggested a wood burning tool so I will look into those options.
Great video, actually all of your videos are great.
I'm glad you think so!
Awesome!
As a suggestion, if you have the option, use acrylic inks rather than paints for the pseudo leopard spotting technique. The end result tends to be better and it mixes far better with water
Ah that totally makes sense. I'll give it a shot next time around!
@@raecheldoes Just remember that the inks tend to have a higher percentage of pigment in them when you thin it out so you don't need as much. And despite the bottles costing a bit more, they last a LOT longer because of it.
I just heat up washers with some fire and tweezers to insert into the bottom of the foam rather than cutting an insert. The washer just melts it's way in.
I'm gonna give this a go next time I need to do this!
As always, an awesome video and craft! The metal disc was a great idea. Is a metal piece easy to get and safe to use and manipulate.
Thank you! And yes I didn't do anything to alter the washers--they are easy and safe to use. You can get them at your local hardware store. Another viewer mentioned they are called "Fender" washers!
I love you tutorials, but I come for the puns!!!!!!
Then all is right in the world 😂
Great terrain, terrible puns. What's not to love?
OK, I usually hate puns. I really really hate them.
But - I'm making 'sahara'zontal lines....?

These look good and the paintjob is very nice but didn't you want sandy deserts? These are fitting for rocky deserts
I created these with the rocky deserts in mind, actually, so I'm glad that came across!
Never stop with the puns. No matter how terrible they're all great
Can't stop won't stop
0:39 Nice looking potato you have there
It's the second best iteration of a potato, imo
Great as usual! Any way you could link the magnets you use? I've tried a few different neodymium magnets and so far they haven't really been strong enough.
I honestly buy mine off of ebay from different suppliers! But for sure placement is important to have as thin of material and distance between the magnets as possible. Also look for N52 rather than N35 or anything lower, as N52 is rated as the highest for magnetism. RP Archive also has links to suppliers through his videos. Thanks for your support btw, and I hope that helps!
Hiya Raechel, really love your creativity and wonder if you would like to try our laser engraver, my friend?
Very Cool😍😍🤘🤘😎😎
Gimme the puns.
I've made similar terrain before and I like to use wooden skewers sunk in between the layers to bond them even tighter together, though it may be unnecessary.
Yes! I've considered this as well but I'm too deep in the magnet game now haha. Wooden skewers is definitely a great option though.
And yes. The puns can't stop won't stop.
Could you heat up the Fender washers and then place them so they melt the shape rather than cutting out the shape?
Oh that is a possibility! I don't know how hot they would need to be heated or how I might accurately place them, but maybe an oven and tongs/pliers could do the trick...
Anyone know what is the mini that appears in 5:52? I mean, the big monster
This is dope but i'm too into clay and gotta make my stuff out of either polymer or apoxy clay.
Question, how do you storage all of this? Can you put terrain atop other terrain pieces inside a desk?
These desert pieces are pretty simple to store because yes they do stack well into a draw or box etc. RP Archive actually has a really great video on creating home-made storage for terrain if you're interested!
So 5 cent nickels are made out of nickel which is magnetic I don't know how much your washers cost. Alternatively you can pick you magnetic white boards from the dollar store and cut or punch circles or strips out of the metal sheet.
is there a decnt place for magnet in the uk?
RP Archive would be the authority on this! I think he's got some connections and discounts for magnets in different countries if that's helpful! You can find it on his website or likely in the descriptions of his videos.
Beautiful work, as usual. But... uh.. 2:30 🤨
Would it work to use sheet sheetmetal on the top so that the magnets would work no matter where you place them ? And if you have thought of this is there any reasons why it would be a bad idea to do this ?
That is definitely an option! And I think RP Archive actually does this with his tiles using ferrous sheets of some kind. I personally don't have access to a reasonably priced supplier, so the washers was a great cheap alternative, but I am definitely considering ferrous sheets for future projects.
@raecheldoes ok so it's mainly a price issue 😊 I haven't looked into what they would be here but I know many ppl use them to line their miniatyr carriers if they have their minis magnetized 😊
if you just paint the washer that goes between the 2 South Magnetized pieces the same as the rest of the terrain it'll not even be noticeable i bet.
That would absolutely be the thing to do!
The puuuuuns
Yeeeeess
Another comment for another watch.
Honestly - The puns are incredibly annoying to me. Your content is otherwise great, but I am just not feeling the "Eh, see what I did there!? EH?!" of your puns :/
I regret to inform you that the tribe has spoken, and they have spoken in favour of the puns, *nomad* -er what. Eh? See what I did there? ;)
