[ PART 3 ] XPS Foam build - Castle for Dnd

avatar
(Edited)

Welcome back with another part of the medieval castle build. I took a lot of progression shot for this one.

See the previous parts

PART1 - Bridge construction
PART2 - Caste walls

Materials I use for the build

Brush
Prime mixture ( recipe above )
Pen
Ruler
Sharp Knife
XPS foam
Hot Glue ( gluing foams together )
Wood repair paste ( filling the gaps )
Barbecue skewers ( it is used to stabilize the floor piece )

This was the practice piece for me I have 2 full sheet of XPS foam untouched. I am planning to cover entire desk with terrain. But to do so I need my hotwire table. Next week i am planning to go o office and recover my machine ^^ cutting with knife is not hard but when it comes to angle cuts its important to get it right. Most of the time knife wont be able to cut precisely. I do not own a T ruler, because of this i have hard time cutting 90 degree pieces. The keep part end up warping on the bottom because of uneven walls. I'll make more pieces to practice my paintinh skills as well. Right now I dont have enough colors and proper brushes.
This brick method is good but I still prefer individually cut bricks over this one. İndividual bricks look more natural an uneven. With hotwire table cutting bricks is easy.

See you next time

Enjoy the shots.

My youngest was singing your praises earlier as we were going through the photos and now also as a bit of an inferiority complex despite me telling him that you've likely spent quite a while getting this good XD

I love all the wear-and-tear textures going on the bricks!

^^ Thank you and your youngest. I spent so much time looking online others people and watching tutorials before attempting such projects. My first builds were terrible. This guy is amazing. I want to build like him.
