Where can I find them?

I could use more terrain tutorials for, well, more terrain on my gaming table.

What type of setting are you going for? Cityscape or more rugged and wilderness based?

I saw with eyes then young, and this is my testament.

I wish I could direct you to a specific channel; I know some of my old rule books for various games had some good tutorials. LotR in particular had some great and pretty generic wilderness terrain how-to's.

Ye Olde GW website was, surprisingly, a huge source of terrain tutorials.

Such words seem like heresy nowadays.

I can direct you over to terrain tutor at least. He only has about a dozen in depth tutorials but man are they brilliant. All his other videos are equally informative and show off some impressive board building. He has hills, roads, bunkers, all sorts of stuff. I'm not a vault member but I think miniwargaming has some too. Hope that helps!

The Luke Towan channel on YouTube is really good for terrain. He is a RR modeler but he offers lots of great terrain builds/tips.

Help me, Rhonda. HA!

I find the "Terrain Tutor" on youtube not only very informative and pretty clear on his tutorials, but freekin entertaining as well.

He makes mistakes sometimes, then fixes them, just like real people do. He is also funny to watch.

Cover all kinds of terrain stuff.

I was messing with some air dry clay the other month and you can create some great looking textured pieces by flatting it out and pressing crumbled tin foil or a plastic bag into it.

I have a some big projects now in mind after using it and the best thing is, it's cheap as anything for a huge slab of it.
