Now THAT is proper old skool!

The packaging was then cut into blocks, shaped, scored, whittled etc, then slightly heated with a lighter, then each block was glued to another to form Mesa type rock formations, a skewer held them together as well, next the ‘rock’ was textured using some valegio pumice

Excuse the bare knee in the bottom pick

Were you thinking "underground hideout with a vague Tatooine vibe" too? Maybe dug into an asteroid with the big space as a docking bay?

I thought people might think I was going to do a building! It’s got to be the cheapest terrain I’ve ever done, after the paste dried I applied a coat of army painters sand, then hit it over then painted from above with wraithbone spray, next came a dark thin reddish brown, brush on, and wipe off with sponge, starting to look more rock like now here’s some more pics

You need to make friends with a building contractor and get them to toss you their cast-off insulation foam leftovers. Works even better than styrofoam as the core for this kind of build and costs nothing since it was headed for a landfill anyway. You even get to feel good about helping recycle.

Looking good so far, very convincing rock textures and shapes.

Awesome dude, I love the old rogue trader models.

Thanks guys, the cheapo polystyrene works well and since it’s old tv packaging saves it going into the rubbish dump, I will get some pics done of the finished item plus some more of my rogue trader stuff I’ve done over the last few months

Another bit of scenery started this will sit on the corner of the games table, it’s mainly for taking pics of my models against
