glad the bubbles worked out for you... you've done them vaery sparringly - which i think is the trick... knowing when to stop.


great board... now is there an airstrip board to go next to them?

Amazing!
The cork cliffs look fantastic, the buildings, of course, are superbly detailed and very, very convincing, and the attention to detail is staggering. Just brilliant, and while after finishing all this work you might not want to think about more additions yet, Brandlin's idea about an air-strip is great. I'm sure with your skill and imagination, it would look as amazing as everything else you've done for this board.
Pat yourself on the back - this is brilliant work.

Thanks, all!

Alfrik, the water is 6 feet deep at that point, so most of the rubble and sand are below the waterline ;)

Regarding the next extension: I still have some cork bark left, so I thought about adding a more rocky board, probably another cliff with an entrance to an underground base in its side. I thought I might use some of the concrete parts from the building in the last pictures, or maybe make another wall segment with a larger gate. I can't find any reference pictures on the quick, but I seem to remember that in Underworld II and at the end of Terminator III, there were some things that might be useful.

Beautiful board and like was said already, the color palette is perfect on it. Really captures the right feel.

...this coast really need a good clean-up… so I guess you pretty much nail it for a plausible Dark Future/Future War scenario lol

my thoughts exactly!
Seriously though Jens, this is outstanding work, the rest of your board is stunning, but this is really the cream on the cake.

I think it reminds me of a normal Danish suburb.

What scale are those minis?

Brilliant coast board, that harbor is so realistic I can see the jellyfish.
