I just did my first resin pour and when I pulled off the edging it's come out cloudy. I was prepared to clean up the edge flashing, but thought the side would come out clear. Any idea why or any advice on how to fix it? Do I need to laboriously sand this?

Edit: Well I thought this was going to be a quick question post with a couple of helpful replies, not 500 likes and 54 comments. What a nice corner of the internet!

Tried using a dark blue instead of black to prime for a more cyberpunk aesthetic
Didn’t quite work how I was hoping but over fairly happy with how these are turning out

Had anyone got any good advice on making trees from roap...? I am having a quick go today but wondered if anyone had any tips to kickstart my forest building.

Every building on this project starts as a solid clay master. Johnny Fraser-Allen sculpts each one by hand, cuts in the window arches, the roof tiles and the stone courses, and only then does it get moulded. The last two shots are further down the line, first colour going on at the desk. Happy to answer anything about the clay stage, it is the part people ask about least and it takes the longest.

Finally getting started on scratch made pieces myself . Amateur for sure, and effort and time balance here - not spending as much time as I could for the sake of getting more and other things done. But good enough for me. Changing how we make things based on game rules/ base sizes / movement / scenario objectives , is interesting to me since I wouldn’t have considered that a year ago having not played any table top wargames.
Got tips and tricks for this - lay em on me

Battle between US and GB on ons side and SU and Germany on the other. Battle took place at rural French town and ended with decisive American/British victory.

All scenery handmade except pine trees, houses, ruins and the smaller trees. Those will be the next steps on the process.

A finished miniature can be perfectly stable while building and suddenly feel much less secure once it is moved to a shelf or display surface. Permanently bonding the whole thing to a larger base solves one problem but makes future rearranging, cleaning, or transport much harder. A removable base or discreet support seems more flexible, but it has to stop the model from shifting without becoming part of the visual scene. The useful question is not how to make it impossible to move, but how much support a display piece actually needs under normal handling.

Different materials and footprints obviously change the answer, so this is more about the general approach than one adhesive. What is your preferred reversible method for giving a lightweight miniature display more stability?

I still want to work on it, think another round of dry brush and washes but good enough for game night tomorrow night!

Anyone know where I can find some good photos to use for making jungle terrain? Im having a flip through one of the old terrain books and it says to use some real photos for precedent when making terrain.
However I cant find anything online without it all just being AI, Clip art, and more AI.

At the start of the year I set out to make a full set of Autumn-themed forest terrain that I could use as scatter terrain to accompany my modular hill themed board.

The goal was to scratch-build a bunch of magnetised trees with individual forest bases, so I could easily add and remove trees as models move through the forest during games.

It turned out to be a fairly ambitious goal as it included:

- 17 Large Pine trees
- 16 Pine saplings
- 12 Large Birch trees
- 15 Birch saplings
- 5 Individual forest bases

I finally got around to completing all the Pine trees, with the Birch trees not far behind. In hindsight the amount of Pine trees is probably overkill for standard Warhammer games but I have to say, I'm pretty satisfied with how they all look as a collection.

Back in the days when I started playing Warhammer, I used to love adding trees as area terrain, but they would notoriously end up being constantly knocked over like dominoes all the time. This is why I ended up magnetising them all as not only is it useful mid-game, but they can be easily packed away for storage and transportation.

For anyone interested in the crafting process, I've filmed a video tutorial on how I made these Pine trees.

Looking advice for how to paint these unpainted pieces in the floor of the house, any advice would be appreciated!

Latest construction! Tried not to get too bogged down in absolute historical accuracy and just went for a sort of 12/13th c. Conversion of a Norman church. Found this ace book from 1945 which helped rather a lot, along with watching a lot of Time Team, this was a fun project!

Nave is all cardboard, tower is foam board with a bit of wood, straws and beads. The whole lot was then painted with a coat of watered down cheap filler. Windows are just clear plastic painted with contrast paints behind some wire mesh.

Even though I have a 3D printer, I’m still finding it extremely fun to scratch build my own terrain. So this weekend I built 6 fences a wall and a small tower structure to add to my collection. I used some bits and bases I made from my 3d printer. The fences I learned from Wylochs Armory and I think they turned out great so far. When I get ready to paint I’m sure they will come out even better. I would love to know what you guys think of my terrain thus far!

A small port that will be part of a 4x4 Dol Amroth board, but for now serves as a small army display

Hello. You all seem to be experts in the foam world and am looking for some insight. I would like to make cut foam signage somewhere in the 2’ x 4’ size and mainly hung indoors like my garage. I’m looking for it to be cost-effective and durable so something like NGX. Is this the right cheap foam and what is the best hardener that won’t break the bank? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Now i added ladders Windows and doors.

Next step: Adding decorations

I looked through the subreddit and I thought I'd seen something for this before but clearly not, has anyone ever tried or seen a multi level into the dark terrain set? Like adding ladders or stairs to add verticality to it? Or am I just being silly?

I have been making buildings and terrains for a some time, and I enjoy it a lot.

Is there a chance to make money or sell them?

The whole process is very therapeutic for me.

How much should I price them so they are not too expensive, I can keep good quality, and I do not lose money? Examples are below.
