What this video covers

This video showcases early progress on a fully handcrafted modular terrain board for the tabletop skirmish game Trench Crusade, alongside newly printed miniatures. The creator builds terrain pieces primarily from insulation foam, applying texture through heat, foil, and wire brushes to achieve a gritty WWI aesthetic. Playing surfaces are reinforced with a silicone, sand, and ballast mixture for durability. A detailed tutorial for the full process is planned for the creator's secondary hobby channel.

Key takeaways

  • Modular terrain tiles are hand-built from 2-inch insulation foam with mixed-media detailing
  • Heat, foil, and wire brushes are the primary texturing methods used
  • Gaming surface combines silicone, sand, paint, and ballast for a durable, realistic finish
  • Small details like duckboards and fire steps are crafted from coffee stir sticks
  • A full step-by-step tutorial will be released on SKS Hobby Workshop
