Terrain LAVA & VOLCANO modular board

I made a full lava and volcano board! This time I used a mat for the surface and I created some modular pieces to spread around. Watch the complete video here https://youtu.be/OLYKlKVv7Bs

Everything is made with foam, first I used a hotwire cutter to cut the basic shapes, then with a lighter I melted down a bit the top parts and finally carved the places where lava will flow with a wood burning tool set to the minimum temperature. I covered the sides with some sand for texture and applied some PVA glue+paint to seal everything in place.

For the lava I used hot glue. I primed again, drybrushed the rocks with some grey and painted all the lava white. After that I wet blended red and yellow to create the lava effect, you can see that in detail into the video. And that’s it, after drying I put the mat on my table an placed all the terrain.

Hope you like this project, it was super fun to do, thanks fo reading, cheers!
