I'm a little late to the party but want to thank you for this, worked perfectly and used them for my Warhammer fantasy battle reports on my channel.

Love the content!

I think this is the best, most usable modular river tile tutorial I’ve seen. Sturdy, cheap, and still looks good.

Looks amazing and ticks all the boxes for me! Cheap, robust, and looks good. As for the best basing material I’d say vinyl was the winner here. With so many wet materials going on I’d be concerned about MDF warping or disintegrating altogether.

[Knurrbauch]

I tried this with cardboard and glue only years ago, but cardboard base is not good because it will bend. Nice to see an alternative.
If you wanna have a sort of 3D Effekt you can use layers of glue and paint them. It takes more time but looks even better.

I think this is best budget river I've seen, nicely done.

Ah, now we know what caused the toilet paper shortages.

[Aftonrhodes]

I have made a few things from your videos, namely because your methods are so resourceful and still look brilliant. Thank you for making these :)

[j.s.matthews]

Awesome job! I did a UDT board with this same technique and I have been thinking about trying it with rivers so it's good to see it works so well!

[johnbrown]

Marklin of Sweden is a genius. So are you. This method looks excellent. Everyone who uses the 2 step epoxy concedes It's a complete mess.

[oorlogshamer]

You say the rapids looks awful, but I think the whole project looks awesome!

[johnkelley]

I think it looks good and quite realistic. This is a nice easy way of making a water feature that yields good results. I have seen a lot of rivers and your choice for the color for it was a good idea and makes it look very good indeed. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make and share this tutorial.

Great Job as always.
Good technich for use in explosión craters maybe .. looks really cool.

I am quite enjoying using vinyl tile as a basing material. It's so simple to cut.

[Lewis-TheNthLevel]

Dude these look great. And when you say around 8:40 that your attempt at rapids doesn't look good- I totally disagree. I think from the quick glance I got at 8:47 looks decent. It's a nice extra little detail. Cheers again for another wicked video. Would love to see some fantasy sort of thing in some videos soon - maybe some cottages or other fantasy buildings if you've got the time for it?

[smallscalestuff]

Good job mate. Certainly effective even if not the best river method 👍👍

[timunderbakke]

I think I’m going to add this to my project list of things to do

[martinkroesen]

This is perfect. Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

dude this is so sick!! thank you for sharing !
