You know the drill, post you terrain collection, WIP terrain, or terrain inspiration!!!!
WHERE can I get the most amount of SHIPPING CONTAINERS for the CHEAPEST price possible???
>>96425751GET some WOODCUT to SIZESCORE SOME DEETZPAINT DAT BITCH
>>96425776Won't you see the grain?
>>96425839Yeah, unless you do enough surface prep to deal with that. In which case you'll simply be left with a crudely rubbed-for-your-pleasure rectangular block of something on the tabletop, because shipping container shave a touch more going on with them that his method completely skips/glosses over.
I want a photorealistic table like this
>>96425839>>96425882I suppose you could use the inner layer of corrugated cardboard on the outside, I dunno why you wouldn't just skip the wood then
>>96425751Beside the aliexpress NOT! Lego containers?
>>96426535Those look too fake, not like real containers >>96425751All the good plastic ones I find are like $10 per container minimum, which is absurd pricing for a plastic box. Wargames Atlantic announced they're working on a set of them (why?). I'm sure the quality will be incredibly mid, but depending on the price they might be worth buying. Sincerely with the price, if you plan on filling out a full shipyard or something you might as well get a resin 3d printer and print some, it would be cheaper than buying them

Trying to craft an apartment building, just started on it today
>>96425661"Thanks for making a nice table for our COC game dude. Thing is, we wrapped up that campaign a year ago and are now playing D&D. Can you do the same, but medieval, by next week?"
>>96430063"Sure, if you pay triple the market rate for a rush job:^)"
>>96427753Looks like the right shape and size. Planning on cutting out windows and doors?
threw something together
>>96426080Terrain is always a compromise between price, looks and practicality.
>>96430649good work>>96425661
>>96430596Yes, of course!
Bought this interesting shaped toy container for sci-fi terrain but it's got a bloody logo on two sides. Will be a faff to file off
>>96434385I would just fit a piece of cardboard over the logo'd sides and paint what you pleased on the cardboard instead of laboriously filing down some impact plastic.
One of the best beginner projects out there.

>>96435120Brit in Australia actually lel
>>96435168Brit can mean a lot of thing, Pahjeet Singh,
>>9642575120 minutes with an exacto knife. I bet you could even do a nice job and turn out a bunch in an hour.
I got some pieces for trenches printed from a local business, and I need a sturdy but not too thick board to glue them and foam on. Any suggestions?
>>96436956I use 1/8 plywood cause it's convenient, I see people using that dense brown MDF stuff alot. No cardboard.

>>96437600Man, how am I supposed to fingerblast a hot goth girl under that guy's stern and watchful gaze?
>>96425661Jesus christ. My ork terrain still isn’t painted. In my defense I’ve been on a holiday.
I love making tropical islands, keeps me warm during the winter.

I'm done with bricking, so now instead of cutting XPS I'm cutting cardboard sheets with roof shingles.
>>96440824What's gonna happen when a fat dopey Warhammer player sits on this?
HOW can I make the most amount of FAVELAS for the CHEAPEST price and EASIEST workflow possible??
>>96440840He would hurt himself. Insides are full of screws and barbeque skewers
>>96440863Interesting, for what game? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tvzbCqCIJg8&pp=ygUUU29sbyB3YXJnYW1lciBmYXZlbGE%3D
>>96440863Corrugated cardboard is your friend and your roof.Also, get a few friends and do it together. Bonus points for variety since everyone will be doing his shacks in his own style.
>>96432623This reminds me of the Alamo in San Antonio, even though they don't look much alike. Like it was some old historic site that got preserved as more modern buildings sprung up around it.
I am... a bit closer to completing my city board
>>96437747His back is turned. Go for it.
>>964447203d printed or crafted? What game is this intended for?
>>96440824Beautiful work so far, looking forward to see it finished.
>>96446947Wow, this looks awesome.
>>96425751Filament printer
>>96446947Where did they get these buildings? Anyone know?
>>96447140These vertical terrain tables always make me cream in my pants
>>96447320And another
>>96447280Monster Fight Club cityscape, a little bit of money.
>>96446197Everything except the bases and the mini are 3d printed. Intended for any game set in a inner city really I'm not going to limit myself when I put in the effort, but currently it's best for 1890-1950s
Some progress on my apartment building. Making every floor playable is beyond my current skill level, so I am going with a removable roof and only the top floor playable
>>96447328>>96447320would love to make a vertical board like this, but i feel like its wasted space since you have to make each level empty enough for your hands and your models to fit in.>>96447140maybe if it was cut in a triangle sort of like the front of this? But even then, you get the fitting problem the further you go into the back of a level.
I have created this obelisk for a running campaign with Dwarfs, Vampires an Tomb Kings. It's still a wip: I'm still missing the TK bits, the decals, the dusty finish...But you get the idea.
>>96453350This is the other side.I also have two smaller obelisks on 40mm bases as objective markers.
>>96453350>>96453356Looks good Anon. What's the lore behind it and the campaign itself?
>>96453350I love the skeleton arm still holding the banner up

The small obelisks from ArchonStudio.>>96453356>loreA determined necromancer wants to travel from Sylvania to Khemri to find the secrets of immortality. He travels south, breaking his way through a dwaven mountain pass around Karak Hirn. The dwarfs rally an army to chase him down.From Khemri a Tomb King pushes north to reclaim ancient territories in the Badlands, clashing with the necromance's hordes in the process.And obviously the dwarfs are not too particular when it comes to killing undead, attacking both armies on sight.The Necromancer faces immortality or destruction as he tries to harness the death magic of the ancient obelisks...
Posting Mordheim terrain to keep the thread alive.
>>96463725Nice stuff anon, I love the rickety platforms.
My current collection of jungle terrain. I calculated that I will need another 120 palm trees to get the table I want to make.
>>96463779Thanks>>96463790Going full 'Nam?
>>96463790I want to make a jungle terrain, I'm just dreading the need to paint all the trees because the aquarium plants are all too shinny
>>96464249What if you just spray aquarium plants with matte varnish?
>>96464312In my test it still looks odd. It's the lack of depth some wash is needed for them to not look like aquarium plants.Some random one in terrain do not matter but an entire clump of them? It sticks out a lot.
>>96464249You can do it with rattle cans, I use graffiti paints that are quite cheap, I prime with mnt 94 amazonas green and then just give them a quick dash with a lighter green ink, but it works with rattle cans as well, but I prefer using my airbrush to lighten them upAlso, get shitloads of paint stir sticks to allow you to mass paint the plants.
>>96464057I am going to build enough for a full jungle fighting table, using the 3rd edition catachan jungle terrain generator.
>>96463790Where do you get the trees? I'm about to make a Vietnam table but aquarium plants are very overpriced at Amazon and the store
>>96464569Aliexpress, at least in my third world country the shipping is the only expensive thing about them
>>96464569Aliexpress, search for plastic model palm trees.
>>96464603if you're making a whole table, alibaba might be an even better option. I do find it advantageous to have a sharp nipper to cut the flash from the plastic plants. While you don't need to do it perfectly, it's nice to make things go faster and easier.>>96464623Also, this was a decorative moss mat I found in a hardware store. The most bang for your buck so far in my jungle journey.
I got bits of very thick corrugated cardboard from a friend after he moved and turned them into containers.The branding and technical details on it were designed by myself and printed on decal paper.The results is still a bit of a mixed bag:>The larger decals broke down during transfer. So I had to cover some of the containers in rust, to hide the defects.>Even after spraying varnish over them, you can still see the transparent part of the decal. I don't know how I could improve this.
Any of you got experience using XPS foam with honeycomb structure? Is it flat enough to be non visable after a primer and a layer of paint or will that stuff drive me crazy?
>>96463725Are the walls plastic or prints? If plastic, sauce?
>>96465818Same question but for the opposite reason, that looks real exploitable for alien insectoid terrain.
>>96465818Its not flat at all.
>>96466075A shame, so I have to keep buying the overpriced amazon stuff.
>>96465260On the other hand, sticking the caps of baby formula bottles together to make scifi containers worked pretty fine.I added a bit of sand inside, for the weight, and used epoxy glue to make sure the two caps stuck together solidly.
