Title: 15mm (Shadowrun) City - GZG Shanties, MBA Apartments, Old Crow Bldgs
Post by: MrHarold on May 20, 2012, 10:38:32 PM
Hey All,

I've been working on my shadowrun/rezolution table...

I used WorldWorks Games Streets of legends, mounted on cork tile.

The buildings are from Ground Zero Games, Old Crow, and Miniature Building Authority...

I still need more sci-fiy cars and hacker terminals (maybe HO scale ATMs?)

Anyways.. let me know what you think!

That's a nice scenery. In France, it's very difficult to find cheap cork sheet. It's really, really expensive. The only cheap material is the traditionnal styrofoam.

That's very interesting... Most office supply, or convenience stores, have sets fora round $7 USD.  They are usually used to put up bulletin boards on walls.

Good work, and modular too! Those WWG roads are the best option when it comes to printed modular streets. I like how everything has the same style and colour scheme, the buildings and streets fits together very well. Now you just need more burned-out car, can't have enough of those in the Redmond Barrens ;)

Thanks cherno!

I agree... cars are next on my list... I think i'm going to have to raid the toy isle for suitable hot wheels cars...

I think tonight i'm going to try and make some incline ramps... to give the space some 3d depth... not sure how it will work though :)

I also need to figure out how to make public data terminals. I was thinking I might even try and mock some up myself in photoshop.

Well, the old WWG Bits of Mayhem set has a couple of stuff that can serve as a base, like telephone booths or ATMs.

Well, I decided to make my own :)

What do you think? Any suggestions? It's my first paper model (and pretty simple, but it works!)

I'd say the texture look good, but the screens could use a little work. They look fine, but it's not clear if they are protruding from the surface or recessed.

Yes :)

Although at 28mm scale it'll be hard to notice anyway ;)

Although, these are 15mm... but the dragon is in the details!

A yes I forgot, of course 15mm   o_o

I guess you could make another version of the ATM that has broken screens and bullets holes... Even in an urban warzone people have to get cash in the middle of a firefight ;)

That table is absolutely stonking. Love the graffiti too, evidence of a miss-spent youth? :D

Every time I see an urban board this good my wallet itches! Really nice work man, and like Monkeychild said the graffiti is top notch.
