Here's are a couple short videos about using Hirst molds to make miniature terrain ---






We use these molds to make terrain for Pulp Alley ---

Wow those are some old photos. Taken at the old place?

A new piece of terrain that Jerry is putting together for our Pulp Alley games....

That interior shot is AMAZING. Holy crap!

Make that another 'Holy Crap!' from me too.

Agreed.  That is a haunted doll house he has going there.  Great attention to detail! 

[Alcide Nikopol]

That old house is wonderfully done.

Here's another cool scratch built piece. Jerry put this one together for our Pulp Alley games....

[Alcide Nikopol]

Nice work. Any hints about how it was made?

I love that roof on the South Seas hut. I attempted something similar using some rattan leaves but the result was disappointing. That looks like broom bristles meticulously laid down.

Bamboo placemats are found in many various diameters or with slats in different widths.  They make great walls & roofs!!  You can often find mismatches in thrift stores, or plenty of places online. Textured wallpaper is also useful here.
As with most things in life size matters, so scale accordingly.
 
Cut your doors & windows out directly, wrap around a box or a block the size you want, stiffen with white glue n'water, support internally with bigger bamboo (garden centres), add doorways & window frames with sticks or medium bamboo twigs, the offcuts make great shutters or awnings.  Floors are dirt, unless you raise them on bigger bamboo stilts then your place mat is cut to become a deck, leave enough width for your standard single figure base size.  Roofs are done the same way, cut to size(s) use a split bamboo twig as a cap.  Sags, sways, ripples, & crookedness only add to the charming ambience of your tropical 3rd world wilderness domiciles.









YMMV

Ah, good call!

Yes, bamboo placemats mats are very useful.

But for this building we wanted it to look "rough" - so it was actually made from broom bristles. Snip and lots of glue.

Oh , I should have stood by my first statement.

Coffee stir sticks and match sticks for the interior?
