🌺 Follow me as I package up some Flower Bundles! 🌹
My handcrafted Basing Material range is very important to me - it’s a product where I can retain the “hand made” element, and I thoroughly enjoy the process of mixing, sifting & packaging them up! 📦
One minor difference to my other tubs is that this particular one comes with 6 individual bags of different colours - simply apply dots of glue to a piece, and then sprinkle on one (or more) of the Flower Bundle colours & BOOM - you’ve got yourself some quick and easy flowers! 🌷
Check them out, along with the rest of my Basing Materials range, on my website 👉🏻 terrainbyhand.co.uk

↪️ … the BEFORE… 👀
And so it starts - my beloved garage workshop is officially empty, stripped to bare bones, and work has now started to turn it into a bespoke workshop 🤩
I’ll be open as usual (as much as is possible with my temporary work space), so thank you in advance for your patience for the next few weeks while the work goes ahead! 😅
Stay tuned later this week for a reintroduction video (for my many new followers- welcome!!) and some Terrain By Hand highlights from my first year-and-a-bit!

🖊️ My plan for the next few weeks…! 🔨
My garage workshop is completely stripped, ready for the conversion to commence on Monday! 😬
While I’m consigned to my office for the next few weeks, it gives me a great opportunity to pick up some projects that I’d left to one side for a while!
Things will naturally be a bit quieter while the work is ongoing, so I’ll be taking the opportunity to reintroduce myself having nearly tripled my followers this year! Plus, I’ll be showing off and talking through some of my favourite projects as Terrain By Hand so far!

🌓 3D print upgrade project PART 3️⃣
The third instalment of my upgrade project - taking one of their fantastic sculpts and adding some Terrain By Hand landscaping!
The Modular Outpost felt like a nice project to tackle - adding some scatter terrain to really give the impression of a gateway into a long-forgotten outer rim territory 🌑
I’ve also shown off some rock scatter pieces - in the same style - to drop around the gaming board for additional cover and, of course, theming! 🪨
I’ll soon be expanding the War Scenery licensed ranges available on my website - files have been created & test prints for shop photos will be underway soon 👀

🔨 And so the pack-up begins… 📦
It’s a day of mixed emotions here at Terrain By Hand HQ… Next Monday, work begins to completely refresh my workshop space 🪚
While I do a lot of my work in my home office, my garage workshop has been my main base for what began as hobby work, and has since evolved into business work, for years. It’s been changed around endless times, trying to optimise space/layout/usability as the business has expanded and grown.
But… the time has come for an upgrade… and I’m preparing for a month or so of disruption as the changes take place 😵‍💫
So, I’m both excited and apprehensive! Eager to see my plans take shape, and nervous for what the next few weeks will bring.
This week will be spent ripping EVERYTHING out - only a few fixtures are being reinstated, the rest is being replaced. ✨
I’ll still be open for business - though please be patient if things take a little bit longer to process in my temporary setup! I’ll be keeping my 3D printers running (in another room), but everything else is getting stored elsewhere for the next few weeks while the work is carried out to convert the space into a purpose-built workshop - one that will completely revolutionise the way that I work.
Here goes nothing!!! 🫣

🎲 2026! ♟️
As well as my love of terrain, I’m a BIG fan of board games!
I’m heading to the UK Games Expo this year with my buddies from - if you see me wandering around the halls with my Terrain By Hand T-shirt on, please do say hi! 👋🏻
Who knows… maybe I’ll have my own stand next year??? 🤔

🎨 Paint Colour HELP! 🔴🔵🟢🟡
I’ve been working on a set of handcrafted terrain for Moonstone by for a little while now, in between other projects, and they’re now ready to be painted!
BUT… I want to avoid the classic brown wood/ grey stone/ blue roof tiles, beige cladding - and I want to mix it up a bit!
If you have any ideas, let me know in the comments down below 👇🏻

🌑 3D print upgrade project PART 2️⃣
After a busy month processing orders from shows, I managed to fit in more custom terrain pieces! This time, the “Listening Station”!
I love the sculpts for these prints, and I felt it right to add some Terrain By Hand flair to enhance their presence further on the table 🤩
I really enjoy taking 3D prints and customising them by handcrafting some surrounding landscape. The added benefit is that, instead of fixing it onto a fully landscaped board, this can move freely around a gaming table for maximum replay-ability! 🔂
I currently have 2 licenses for War Scenery terrain, all available on my website. If you’d like something a little more custom (like this Listening Station), then I’d love to discuss it with you! 💬
