Their instruction is good, if not great but should help anyone trying to make the types of terrain shown there.
HOW TO MAKE WARGAMES TERRAIN BOOK HOW TO
The first is 3t-studios they have an entire section called "Do It Your Damn Self" where they outline how to make various terrain pieces. But what I like and how I learn may be different from yours, so your milage may vary.įor those of you who prefer to read in depth instruction I have two good resources for you as well. Looking through list I just gave you, some were good, some awful, and some 'meh'. They just happen to be two of my favorites. So by no means am I saying that Viv and MiniWarGaming are the only way to do any of this. A simple look up of "how to make wargames terrain" brought up this list. Of course, there are tons of other videos available for you to learn from. Word of warning, Viv can talk a bit fast, and occasionally I wish he would expound on what he is doing, but his stuff is solid.

He does videos about how to make your own materials as well, such as colored flock. He has tons of hobby related videos most of which are about terrain and scenery. Viv is a hobby enthusiast who runs his own shop. Next up is a guy from the other side of the world. MiniWarGaming has quite a few Youtube videos up, not all of them are about terrain, but if you follow this link, you will get a playlist of there how to videos. I personally like a little quirkiness in my instruction, I mean we are all talking about playing with toy soldiers here. All to often these videos are worse then a documentary of paint drying. One of the added benefits of this groups videos has to be that the instructor has a bit of personality. The first is a group called MiniWarGaming, they have a lot of videos for very specific terrain peices, like how to make a factory from a soup can. However the information is out there for those of us who know where to look and I'm going to highlight a few of the sources I think are worth looking into. The main reason I can see for it's discontinued sale is that GW has a lot more terrain for sale now then when they first published the book, thus they must feel the book competes with the premade stuff, and I guess it does to an extent. Sadly GW has discontinued it's sale, but if you can still get your hands on a copy it's well worth it. It gave us a chance to have a great table to play on, one which we could be proud of, and not using books to represent hills. This resource was a godsend to those of us who got into the hobby without a solid group to lean on. For those of you who don't know of what I speak, I am referring to the GW book "How to Make Wargames Terrain". Recently I learned that one of the greatest resources available to us hobbyists had been removed from the market.
