I suggest crushing the paper into a ball multiple times before wetting as it will soften the paper and will add the perfect tarp texture and allow better positioning and since the paper is warn it will drink up glue better
I love your videos on making apocolyptic terrain. I like the idea of doing diecast racing in post-apocalyptic times. Do you play the other game named Gaslands or Gaslands Refuelled?
And here I'm just using a miniature of a T-rex. A Tyranasaurus for a Truckasaurus. But I'm making everything micro so it's towering terrifyingly over my cars.
When you dont prime you can instead use a clear matte finish coat to act as a primer. I love to save the little decals on Hotwheels so i use this trick alot
Great tip. Great little video. I'd use masking tape for the arrows, then do the same stippling over the top. I'd also start from a grey or dark grey/black/brown colour for the base coats, maybe a mix of all of them to get some variety in colour and work my way up. I think I would also make it look less like packaging with some corrugated card, granny grating and other odds and ends, like pipes and wires, to break up the parts that look most like the packaging.
It depends on the scenario and what direction you take it. If you decide you don't want to go post apocalyptic (the lore is post apocalyptic but nothing but the rules are hard and fast) you could go Blade Runner if you so wish it. For instance, I build my boards and terrain based off Judge Dredd and lots of sci-fi classic movie companies. Even thought of making companies like Weyland Yutani into homebrew sponsors.
Love the expanding foam explosions!! And the “mod speeder” is one of my favorite castings! I found a bakers dozen and modded one uniquely for each sponsor.
Regarding that double clip. Davinci resolve is an amazingly powerful free video editor where you can record VO during the edit, so if you see that error you could just pull the clip
For the waterslides - just dip them in the water and then let them sit somewhere - they don't have to be submerged. The droplets that stick will do the job.
Im real late to the vid but a household satalite looking part I think could be a plastic screw cover, the thing you plug into a top of a crosshead screw that covers the screw and blends in with the unit
I just have one bit of advice for him if he builds another instead of the clear rods he should dangle some wires around and in the bundles of wire hide some steel wire pinning the blimp to the base that way it isn’t very obvious and hides the support as a detail
