Very cool. And thanks for those pics Kid.

looks great... if you are going to add carriages that can be entered, I've leave the trench as it is and make your tracks wider...

Lovely! Looking forward to seeing more.

Did any more ever get done on this board? I'd love to see...

The columns need to be removable to be replaced with shot up stubs and rubble! Every time there is a gun battle, each side manges to shoot the columns and not each other , to the point the colums collapse! Mahahahaha, destructing terrain.

Sadly no, I haven't got any more done which is pretty disappointing considering the time span. Problem is I'm good at getting inspired to start a project, but am totally lacking on the follow through. I have a whole slew of half finished terrain projects and primed miniatures I could use as an example. The subway is not totally shelved however. I want to go back and do some more scribing to make the tiles smaller which is pretty daunting. Then some plactic work on beams and the edges above the tracks. I think I found a decent glue to bond plastic to foam. I wasn't sure if white glue or wood glue would hold plastic well and I'm pretty sure superglue eats through foam. I tested some Elmer's Ultimate High Performance Glue which is their version of Gorilla glue and it held pretty good. I had to apply a bit of pressure to pop a piece of plastic from the foam and it took some foam with it. Anyway, I'm going to get cracking on it.

Haha, I'm exactly the same - starting at least three times as many miniatures as I finish, and I've only got two pieces of terrain that I actually finished... Let us know if you do any more though, as it really is quite a splendid board...

I played Max Payne a long time ago but can't recall the subway or much else for that matter. Fun tho'.

That is seriously impressive!
I've always thought a subway platform would make for some great battle sequences in a minis game.
Now I get to see it!
Keep it up.

Did a little more work on the platform. Added some support beams between the tracks. Put a ledge on either side of the tracks along with some diamonds plate on the boarding side. Put some stairs in the entry ways. Added a third rail down the middle which I know probably isn't accurate. I wanted to have it on the outside but wasn't much room on ties so this was easier. Made some spots where the tiles have fell off just to show some neglect.

This is looking amazing, keep up the good work! The little details like the loose tiles are great!

Wow the diamond plate really makes it realistic.

This is a great project, don't know how I've missed it!

Has great deal of uses from gangster shootouts to Werewolf hunting Vampires!

Can't wait to see the finished product!
