Here is my newest floating island. 


This one I supported it with a column instead of the roots.  I have the next one built and I've started painting it, it might be done today.  I guess it had better be done today as I need it for a game tomorrow.



This is the smallest of the floating islands I've done so far.  The columns are from the WizK!DS Pillars and Columns set.  I'm going to see if the banners that came with it will fit my Adeptus Titanicus titans as campaign banners.  I'm hoping they will fit the Warhounds at least.



I'll get pictures of the next one up when it is finished and then pictures of the first game we use them for tomorrow night.

The islands look great, but I’d be paranoid about putting too much weight on one.

Out of interest did you make a test piece to see how much weight they could take ?

I did not make a test piece.  I'm guessing they will be able to handle the weight of anything we put on them.  Likely we won't put anything that heavy on them.

Here they are in their first game today.



This is the first four and those will be all I'll make for a little bit.  Time to get back to painting some figures.  It was a nice project.  I'd like to do one more of these and then make some more that are chained down. 

In this game they didn't move around but were objectives for the Imperial forces to eliminate.  They didn't manage it.
