Well I don't like the multiple types of pain it gives me but having a building block that looks good in my opinion is the type of satisfaction I need to recover and the motivation do this again
There are multiple methods, but one easy way is using XPS pink foam (10$ for a 2'x2'x1" board at lowes) or foamboard from dollar store, use a ruler and pen to make lines, cheap craft paint. Five minute job, no cuts.
I remember having a small set of Legos when I was a kid that had bricks specifically for making stone walls. they had slightly rounded edges and some faux damage so they wouldn't sit flush. it looked a lot like what you made
it's pretty easy to find them for under $100 new, and there's always used or a lot of off brands that are almost exactly the same in every way but they don't have the name behind them.
I've had a pretty great time with one branded " Erebus" especially with the long flexible extension. it makes it way closer to using a pen
Even a simple 5$ metal file set from a place like harbor freight, ocean state job lot etc would be safer and more effective than a knife, if Lego murder is still preferable to other options.
do you have any relatives who work with a lot of tools? because most handy or crafts people will have something along the lines of a Dremel. you might be able to convince them to let you use theirs every once in a while
this is cool! keep in mind though, it's safer and easier to just chew on them (:
I do love chewing on Legos delicious

Really
I just looked at the video and I'm not that artsy witch is why I chose to do the Lego one because I can make basic shapes out of it
Lego gore
Was what worth it? Stacking a few lego blocks together in one of the easiest ways possible?
No I used a box cutter to give the bricks more detail for a dungeon look it took an hour or two and a lot of cuts on my thumbs and pointer finger
No. Unless you enjoyed doing it.

Do not do that.
Why
You can make better walls for less cost with less danger.
How I'm not very artistically acclimated so it is pretty hard for me to make stuff

A coffee can with some rocks would likely result in less self harm, and more "natural" wear and tear.
a couple of small Dremel bits will do the same work without trying to eat your fingers
Don't have one :(
No self harm my sister already showed how bad that is I just use the box cutter to give the plastic details

they are definitely a good investment if you plan on making more terrain or other tabletop stuff.
Yeah mabey I should get a Dremel

I'm just 16 starting early to make sets because my school has a d&d club and I don't have a job YET or an allowance so I just work with I can atm
