Great work as always, very informative and helpful. It is amazing how much visual impact a little mist can lend to a scene, and it is defiantly something I would like to experiment with. Thanks for the inspiration and info!
Yeah I love how it extends the terrain and lights it. That's a great idea for the moon phases. Fun fact is that shell is actually from a broken moon phase lamp. It had small LED strips that illuminated each phase section.
Thanks very much! Those big rocks are super handy. They're made from dense packing foam i've shaped by hand and with a wood burner. Coated in a couple coats of modpodge.
@@Atmoseeker The kind that makes a big mess and crumbles everywhere? Or something else? I definitely could use some large boulder/cliff rocks for my table and noticed you don't have a "how to" in your crafting playlist. Oh well. Appreciate you as always Sebastian!
@@HouseDM Yeah it crumbles, it's basically the denser packing foam you might get with electronics like microwaves and tv's etc. Unfortunatly i don't have that video, but a great one to cover one day! I certainly get a lot of use out of them.
Yeah that'd kinda work, problem is smoke machines generally have a "warm up" time before they start hazing. If it's consistent on your smoke machine, than it might be possible to time it.
Wow I'm glad Lyla recommended this channel this is theme park next level immersive stuff! But what kind of dollar store has $10 fog machines? Speaking of cheap, that humidifier wand has my thinking... Will any defuser/ humidifier type device work?
Thanks for watching! Yeah I'm in Australia and a bargain store had stock of smoke machines at Halloween (Halloween"s a great time to stock up on this stuff). That humidifier wand is still one of my fave go-to's for a portable effect. I think a lot of them use similar tech for creating mist, however I guess it depends if they're leak proof at different angles. If you haven't seen it, here's the video where I make one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QJDMmxAH30c.html
Hey mate, sorry no video for that one. It's made from those EVA foam gym mats. Happy to pull it up on the next Livestream to show how it came together 👍
@atmoseeker does the water based fog fluid residue evaporate off of miniatures/terrain over time or do you have to actively clean it? (water based, i assume something like 70% dystilled water to 30& vegetable glycerin you mean?) Thanks for this video. Very informative and amazing. I recently bought a fog machine for my games and im worried about the residue so I would love some insight from your side :)
Thanks mate! In my years of using fog I haven't had to actively clean any terrain or minis. It usually evaporates if there's any buildup. On that Zombie board, a bulk of the residue built up on smooth plastic surfaces like the LED panels and inside the cooling chamber. Those are the only things I give a clean or wipe up after a few hours of fog.
Thanks for watching! Yeah the first few foggers (reptile humidifier, fogmonster, and humidifier wand) all use ultrasonic mist makers in their design. That fog is already cool so it doesn't need ice.
Hey! Yeah this one's the one I was using in the stream. Just double check it has the same connection as your fog machine (same amount of pins, round or square connection, etc) www.ebay.com.au/itm/295270157040
Do you have discord? I'd like to direct message and get in contact with you so i can ask my questions regarding my fog machine project to get specifics! I can also reach out through different platforms but my preference is by far discord.
Hey mate! There is a discord, but it's currently reserved for Patreon and channel members. But by all means, feel free to reach out on other platforms. Always happy to talk fog
