Title: Hand Made Terrain
Post by: zrunelord on 04 April 2017, 03:13:25 PM

Hello again all,

I have been experimenting with gaming boards for quite some time.The idea is to have Portability,Strength, Beauty, Versatility & easy Storage.

So here are the boards – The 1st 4 are double sided 5mm 4 ft x 3ft Foam board & the rest are either cloth or canvas. For the former I printed A3's ( difficult to avoid wrinkles ) & stuck them together & I hand painted the latter .

Thanks HH,
One of my Fav also.
I had to lay it on the floor & weigh the corners down in order to paint it.
Had to study pictures of waves for reference.
Was thinking about using oils but then opted for acrylics as they would allow me to roll it for storage.

Haven't gloss varnished the sea yet ......
