Caves, Sewers, Catacombs (lot of pics) WIP
« on: June 17, 2011, 04:41:51 AM »
Hi,

My local club is very much in fantasy (WH battle, Mordheim...) and I had the idea to build some modular sceneries : caves, sewers, etc... to go UNDER our tabletop (in reality beside...).

Each module is 30x30 cm. So I have to build at least 16 modules (1.20 x 1.20 m) may be more...

Here are the first four of them. The fifth one is uneder way...

1st module : cavern












2nd module : a cave, with upstair to a house of someone who like good wine (french one of course !! :drunken: )














3rd module : a turning sewer (WIP)






















And with the first try of water...










































And the fourth  :




















Thus so far... :









I used some Hirst Arts molds.. (fieldstone molds).

Well, that's all for today. I'll post the next one as soon as possible.

Jacques.

Nice! Simple without looking simplistic, if that makes sense - all the detail in the right places but not in the way of the game.

Will have to mentally file this away for eventual inspiration for cave/sewer/underground scenery of my own!

Does the water come out of the sewer so  you can have a dry sewer? Wasn't sure if the dry sewer was a work-in-progress photo or a finished photo.

Hello Wirelizard,

No, (sob ! I haven't thought at that possibility !) it's a "fixed" water ! More module of sewers will be done later with runways along the tunnel.

wow...this is really awesome. Brilliant work !
Not only useful for a fantasy Dungeon but also a useful idea for a Pulp Gangster or Horror Scenario. Thank you !

Excellent work.
I don\'t know whether to be a good example or a horrible warning.

Very nice. I really dislike square, 4 way caves. It's just an unnatural layout for caves etc. That said, you've done a good job of hiding it.
So many projects..... so little time.......
