Nice little printer. I like how the 'basic' printers are now much bigger buildplates, a lot of QOL improvements honestly :)

Anyway…

I get asked quite a lot of questions about how I achieve the results I do, and almost as often I see people making mistakes crafting terrain that are easily fixed!

So instead of continuing to answer the same questions over and over, I decided to condense the knowledge I take for granted (and use in almost every video), into a detailed, coherent guide full of tips and tricks to up your terrain game 😁

Now some of you will know some of this stuff, but I think there's something in there for almost everyone. I've been doing this full time now for about a year, and full time with a part time day job for quite a while before that!

I by no means know everything there is to know, but I do have a solid stack of techniques I've built up that just haven't found their way into videos. Usually because I couldn't find a way to fit them in without dragging the videos on for 40 odd minutes 😶

Hopefully these terrain tips are useful to you, and either offer something new, remind you of things you forgot…or at the very least serve as a relaxing background while you craft 😂
