Title: Modular Terrain Board Construction
Post by: Chris Abbey on March 19, 2018, 10:31:51 AM

I just finished making a short video at the weekend showing texturing, painting and finishing a one foot square modular terrain board.

Beautiful Table Modules! I use the Same Size and Lasercut box setup for my Table atm. Do you just use plain flat modules or have you made some Hillshape modules as well so far?

Glad you like it,

We've got around 30 different tiles in the range at the moment.
These include hills, cliffs, sea cliffs, beaches, canals, rivers, streams, quaysides, trenches and lots more.

As well as the videos, we also have a photo gallery that shows lots of different layouts.

Both videos & gallery can be accessed from : http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/terraformer (http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/terraformer)

I would like to do something similar but with a combination of 2x2 and 4x2 boards.

We are just working on 2' square kits at the moment.

Quite a few game systems these days use a 3x3 board, 18 inch square tiles would be really useful.

18" tiles. That's a great idea. I will put that on the list of things to do!

At the weekend, Luke from Lukes APS sent me some great work in progress photos of terrain that he is working on using Sally 4th Terra-Former kits.

Fantastic work! Exactly the type of thing I would like to try with 2x2 boards  :D.
