Hi everyone - I printed and painted this piece for our gaming group's collection (for Mordheim, specifically). It's the "Medieval Clocktower" from MiniatureLand available on myminifactory. The only parts not from that file are the clock hands, I just crafted them from the ends of zip ties. Hope you enjoy the photos. Thanks for taking a look! Any feedback/criticisms always welcomed.

Scratchbuilt Finale for my 5 year campaign and first terrain build!

60 Upvotes

This is a terrain build that I am doing for my upcoming finale to the story my friends and I have been crafting for 5 years. This version, this timeline of the Forgotten Realms has been around since I was in college and it’s been quite the joy to play and bring the adventure to life with this group.

The board is made out of XPS foam and a hot knife. Each one hand painted; the altars are 3D printed and purchased, the large tree was imagined and handcrafted. More to come!

Finished my set of ruined walls from Printable Scenery, printed by Nerd Stuff. Not much more to say, except that it's a super cool set with lots of variety and character. A great, versatile addition to any modern wargaming table.

3D Printed I finally painted and photographed some new epic scale terrain pieces, pardon my amateur animation. Turntables aren't even expensive...

Take a look at how the desert table changed through the successive stages of adding more details, texturing the surface, and painting. Be sure to leave a sign if you'd like to see up close how I created and painted this table..

Catedral gótica Lincoln consejos

0 Upvotes

Hola a todos!

Quiero hacerle un regalo sorpresa a mi novio, que es fan de Warhammer, y se me ocurrió construir una maqueta de la catedral de Lincoln, en Inglaterra, inspirada en su arquitectura gótica.

Mi idea es hacerla en MDF cortado con láser, con piezas desmontables para que pueda armarla, desarmarla y transportarla fácilmente.

Pero hay un pequeño problema: ¡yo no sé jugar Warhammer! 😂

Así que quisiera pedirles su opinión antes de empezar a construirla.

  • ¿Una catedral gótica sería un buen escenario para jugar o sería poco práctica?
  • ¿Qué dimensiones de largo, ancho y alto recomendarían para que realmente sea útil durante una partida?
  • ¿Qué altura deberían tener los pisos y qué espacio necesitan las miniaturas para moverse cómodamente?
  • ¿Sería mejor hacer una catedral completa o dividirla en secciones que puedan utilizarse como ruinas independientes?
  • ¿Qué tan importante es que los techos, muros y torres sean desmontables?
  • ¿Hay algún detalle que deba considerar para que no interfiera con las reglas o la dinámica del juego?

Me gustaría que fuera algo bonito y especial, pero sobre todo que realmente pueda utilizarlo y disfrutarlo durante sus partidas.

¡Les agradecería muchísimo cualquier consejo o recomendaciones

Questions for the Community How do you deal with mica flecks in wild-sourced ground cover?

3 Upvotes

I just took a hike on my wash-filled desert property looking for some good washed sand deposits to sift for ground cover on my model railroad. My first batch was great but I forgot where I got it, and these two loads have sufficient mica/something shiny that it sparkles obliquely in the sun. My layout won’t have that kind of sun, and since this is going onto ground goop and will be a base under other covers I’m thinking it may not matter. Anyone deal with this? Maybe a shot of flat clear once I’m done (if the diluted matte medium doesn’t kill it)?

KICKSTARTER Modular Palisade wall set

I made a supportless modular palisade wall set using the Openlock clip mechanism. With straight walls, corners, curved walls and a functional gate.

Meaning you can build and rebuild, use and reuse your map in multiple ways again and again.

I'm personally going to use it as a big arena where my players will need to fight of a few waves of monsters with increasing difficulty

Questions for the Community Will wood glue work for gluing mdf board to XPS foam?

I have volden wood adhesive which I plan on using for my first ever wargaming terrain board, I want to make sure I am using the best glue possible so it will last a long time. Please let me know if this will be suitable or if I should buy a different kind of glue, if so what? Thanks.

Saw dust from a carpenter friend, this is a mix of 4 pigments. Used a sieve to have the bigger stuff sorted. Will do a last pass through to remove some of the bigger chunks.

I am really excited to get this on some trees I am making.
