Title: Paper Buildings for Superheros
Post by: Freak Hair on 30 April 2013, 09:04:26 AM
Hello fellow gamers!

This is my first post on Lead Adventure.  ;D

Here are some paper buildings I built a few years ago for 15mm superhero figures

Great looking setup!  How big are your modular boards?  I've got a very similar setup for 28-30mm stuff.  I went with 12 inch sections.  I tried to go bigger, but didn't like the effect.  Yours look great though and I think you've nailed it.

Looks like its 15mm by looking at the figs and the scale of the builings.

Nice work anyway, really look cool

Interesting. Much smaller than I thought but...

Then that would make sense :)

Nice! Did you print the textures on and build them from scratch or do they come pre-printed, ready-to-build?

Saw the pics on the blog, looks great with the superheroes fighting among the buildings:)

They are the "CAPITAL CITY: Base Set" from Fat Dragon Games.
Very nice and easy to build.

I own a few fat dragon sets, mostly dungeon stuff. However I stopped using paper materials when I realised how much it was costing me in ink. Now I can print dirt cheap at my school, and I have recently switched to 15mm as well. Your stuff is some pretty convincing material.

Did you downscale the Fat dragon files at all? I thought that all of their stuff was around 28mm and a complete wide shot, do you think they might work if I were to downscale them to 6mm? I'm still looking for good 6mm terrain for giant monster battles.

Really remarkable city-scape. I think it would cost a fortune in ink, but very cool!
