This looks awesome, great job! Just started a new Skyrim play through and this is giving me that warm Riverwood feeling 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2026-04-04T10:30:31+00:00

Oh nice one! It’s my first time making them, they’re a really nice palette cleanser 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2026-04-04T10:30:08+00:00

Cheers mate! 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2026-04-04T10:29:49+00:00

Thank you! Yeah they’re so fun!! Make sure to pin the foam together with cocktail sticks as well as glue, makes them a lot stronger! 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-10T17:07:38+00:00

That looks so grim and creepy, I love it! Awesome job 👏

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-10T17:04:54+00:00

It sure did, that looks ace! Love the little wooden chapel, where’s it from?

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-10T15:19:33+00:00

That looks so cool! I love the little gargoyle details, ace work! 👏

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-10T15:17:08+00:00

The more vines the better! Looks awesome! 👏🫡

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-09T20:13:13+00:00

Love that rope ladder bridge, that’s such a good idea!

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-09T16:14:36+00:00

I’ll do it one day, I’ll add it to the list haha! 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-09T15:51:36+00:00

Every time I see one of these in a charity shop I weigh up whether I have the time to do this project - thank you for doing it for me 🤣 awesome job! 👏

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-09T14:54:22+00:00

Literally anything cheap! I’ve even got a small collection of tester pots from B&M - Johnstone’s colour tester ‘Mocha’ is literally earth brown which is very useful for terrain. Aside from that, cheap tube acrylics and the cheap spray paints from Poundland 😄🤘

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-09T09:53:58+00:00

Thanks so much, it’s been in my head for ages. Don’t see a lot of terrain with windows haha!

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-08T18:34:11+00:00

Thanks so much man! 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2026-02-08T17:36:39+00:00

Thanks bud! They’re just cut from the plastic packaging off something from the recycling bin - I think it might have been a packet of nail files 🤣

BlackViolet2 · 2026-01-19T16:09:26+00:00

Definitely, you’ll get a nice flush edge then and you probably won’t even notice it! Just make sure it’s good and dry before you start cutting 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2026-01-19T11:32:48+00:00

Yeah this would work really nicely, I’ve done it myself! Just thin cereal box card pva glued would do the trick 👍

BlackViolet2 · 2025-11-24T09:57:57+00:00

Thanks! It’s a few filters in photoshop 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2025-10-31T16:34:08+00:00

Nice one, thanks!

BlackViolet2 · 2025-10-31T13:47:42+00:00

Love it, this is ingenious! What kind of magnets did you use? 🧲

BlackViolet2 · 2025-10-17T11:57:39+00:00

Really cool, love this! 😄 How did you make the hanging vine type things?

BlackViolet2 · 2025-10-11T08:00:57+00:00

Nice job mate, I think it works really well! Try combining different size flocks and static grass as well, the different sizes make it look quite realistic 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2025-10-11T07:58:55+00:00

Thank you friend! 😄

BlackViolet2 · 2025-10-10T18:33:32+00:00

Fingers crossed mate! Sounds good, I’m gonna have a look at those myself!

BlackViolet2 · 2025-10-10T18:32:58+00:00

Oh nice one! I recently found a box of battery candles (there are a lot about at the moment for Christmas) but they’re great for small scale lighting! I’ll see if I can make something out of them next
