Miniature Brick Walls | Steampunk Conservatory Project
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 ноя 2019
- Greetings!
Today I share with you how I made my brick walls for my newest project which is a conservatory in a victorian, possibly steampunk, style.
I use foamboard to create the bricks to form a pony wall for the outside walls.
I hope you enjoy this project.
Have a better day … As I always say!

The grey color actually goes well under the red. Your bricks look realistic without looking redundant. Thanks for the video
Thank you! Glad you like it!
@@dolfinmagikpro 😊😊
Yay rah! Someone who actually takes the time to do a really nice paint job.
Thank you!
@@dolfinmagikpro I said that both because your work on these bricks is really nice and because I find it so frustrating that people build these beautiful miniatures and then paint them brown with almost no attention to all the nuances of detail. It takes a bit of time to do a nice paint job, but it is so worth it, as your walls show here. PS I also follow Black Magic Craft, who does foam work and DOES paint his miniatures carefully, albeit a bit too much dark stone. But that is the gamer look. Nice guy also.
I was searching for how to put on embossed brick paper for my dollhouse instead of siding and this popped up. Holy bananas. This is fantastic and I am going to do your technique instead. Sometimes the stars align!
Always glad to hear that what I did helped someone else! Thank you!😊😊
Looks awesome! I can't wait to watch this project come together!
Very nicely done. The layering factor is what makes the bricks stick out. Thank you for sharing. ♥️👍
Thank you.
Love that texture--very authentic looking. Thanks for the foam core tip--would never have thought of it. Looking forward to seeing the entire conservatory project.
Thank you!
Love, love it!!!
Thank you!
Super excited for your new project :D
Thank you! Me too!
Great tute - liked and subscribed - looking forward to seeing the project progress.
Thank you!
Just what I was looking for! I have the same foam board and didn't think of just removing the paper. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Real nice!!!!!
Thank you!
Great technique, thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
Very realistic looking!!
Thank you!
@@dolfinmagikpro you're ver welcome, thank you for sharing.
That looks very realistic.
Thank you!
This is how I make my walls too! The first time I did it, I accidentally left the paper on while i made my lines. Learned my lesson when I peeled it off and it wasn't nearly as visible anymore.
Took me a while to realize the paper came off at all! Thank goodness for RUclips! hehehe
Tried your technique for a 144 scale WW II battle diorama. Worked extremely well. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you!
If you want more texture (say if you need a worn over time or made out of grey stone look) find a nice big rock with a few sharper points and bumps. Then beat the tar out of your foam core (carefully). I find it works best after making your lines but before painting. You may have to do a second pass at some of your lines, but it looks awesome.
Thank you for the suggestion. I have heard using rolled up aluminum foil works well, too.🙂
Great video, I love your technique the wall looks Amazing, Well done I also subbed I enjoyed your video so much.
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
I'm just catching up on your videos and enjoying every moment. It's a treat to watch your craftsmanship. There's nothing more inspiring than watching someone do amazing things. (My husband, said, "No, I'm not getting you a lathe or a band saw for your birthday". Darn.)
I appreciate your kind words and hope that I can maintain that inspiration in future videos.
@@dolfinmagikpro I look forward to each one.
Mine won't buy me a 3D printer or a laser cutter either - they're so MEAN! LOL
You can get one yourself off Craigslist or Letgo or one of those other sites fairly cheap. I have seen many a bandsaw go for $25 to $45 for a good model. I personally recommend a scroll saw though. It's a more flexible tool.
@@heathertaylor-willockx3632 Awesome!! Thanks for the tip!
Looks awesome! I am researching ideas for brick for my O scale (1:48) train layout on some scratch built building....great technique! Thanks!!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
Oh Great! I love a mini brick wall! You are being very self critical. I am hopeless at dry brushing but you're getting the effect of many different shades in the brick wall which is what is required. I think you're doing a great job don't get hung up on technique because it's results that matter in miniatures and you certainly get results from what I have seen. I found you through Ara Bentley who is wonderful! I have been stalking through your videos...not as sinister as it sounds and got some great tips! I see you watch Heather Tracy too...all my favourite channels! Like the music btw!
Thank you! Glad to hear it!
Stalking, in this sense, is preferred! Hehehe. Glad you found me!
I agree that the final results are what's important. My techniques have gotten better, too!
I'm making a replica of the Michigan football stadium and couldn't figure out how to make a brick wall ... thxs so much you rock!!!
Awesome! Will you be posting any video or pics of it?
Always glad to help! Thank you!
@@dolfinmagikpro Yes but right now I'm working on each individual piece before I put it all together and it's probably going to be a few months. As soon as it's done I will send it too you & post it on here. The next one is going to be the Detroit Red Wings Home Hockey Ring *Little Caesars Arena* and it will be semi enclosed!
@Janet Schmidt I can't wait! I grew up watching The L.A. Kings Hockey at the Fabulous Forum! Now THERE'S a challenge for you! hehehe
More affordable technique than clay. Thank you. I used a stone to create a rough texture.
Thank you. After peeling the paper on this particular piece of foam board, I didn't think it needed any extra texturing. Thank you for the suggestion. On XPS foam, I use very coarse grit (60) sandpaper.
The Music is fantastic I will be visiting that link
She's got some wonderful songs! 😃😃
with the dry brushing, try almost laying the brush flat. Like hold it almost horizontal to the piece. Then drag it across very lightly.
Dry brushing was hell for me to learn, too. For many of us, it's not as easy as people make it look. I didn't get it until I saw a tutorial from a woman doing it for furniture and she's the only one who I've found that shared that trick. I learned it for big things first and that might be an easier transition for you as well.
Good luck. Once you master it, you'll find that it's a skill worth having.
Thank you for the suggestions and advice! I think the problem I was having in this video was that I was using a really thick, "plastic" bristled brush. I should have used a natural hair brush.
I have (since making this video) learned how to dry brush. And yes, it is a wonderful skill to learn! Thank you again! 😊😊
Thank you, its usefull
Glad it was helpful! Thank you!
You did really good :) when it comes to dry brushing, it´s best to have a stiff brush and very, very, VERY little paint on it :) you can always dab off most of the paint on a tissue before going in to dry brush :) just a friendly tip :)
Thank you for the compliment and the advice!
I watched a video where the guy put the foam board in the shower and ran hot water over it and then peeled the paper off easy. I just tried it and it works great! It doesn’t ruin the foam at all. Thought I’d share.
Thank you for the wonderful suggestion! I will keep that in mind! 👍👍😀😀
Foamboard? Why haven't i thought of that before? I have a 1250mm x 1800mm block paving model carpark space to make. I'll give that a try before i buy a lot of blue styrofoam.
Glad to have inspired you! Hope you are posting that build. I would love to see it!
Check out. Black Magic Crafts. He has built some amazing things with dollar store foam boards!!!
Thank you for the suggestion!
What scale would this be ?
Thank you for asking! 1/12 scale.
What material do you use?
I am using foamcore board and acrylic paint.
2:30 color
I use Moccasin Brown, Jet Black, Snow White, and True Red paints, if that is what you are referring to.
