Fantasy terrain ideas and products with goblins thrown in...
« on: February 15, 2012, 11:38:39 PM »
In my stumbling across the internet looking for ideas for goblin abodes, as I wish to make a goblin village, I found this, which while not containing anything of much use for my goblins might prove at least interesting for some... They have terrain to purchase and apparently they also make to order or just see it for ideas and inspiration...

While on the topic of terrain I want to make terrain specific to each of my fantasy races, a home for each if you like. For my goblins who I have allied with various swampy critters including giant dragonflies and lizardmen etc, I was thinking island styled structures on stilts above swampy sodden wet ground (anyone familiar with the old Airfix Jungle post might have the right idea) with an old ruined castle on craggy mountain rising up from the quagmire with typical crooked wizard tower - now the abode of a goblin shaman or king or both. I was thinking too of having rope hanging bridges between the buildings as well as stepping stones. But that is as far as the idea currently stands and with so many projects at the moment it may well go unfulfilled. Any ideas would be appreciated.

While some of their stuff looks nice the price is a bit daunting...   :-[

 :o :o :o

To say the least!

There is some nice stuff there, but most of it does not warrant the price that they are attaching to it.

Small boutique companies don't have the economies of scale that larger companies do guys.  I bet not many people could charge a pittance for their labour and materials and live in europe AND invest into the business.

Some nice stuff there.  Bookmarked... Neotacha does like neat buildings and terrain, so I am always looking for new stuff she has not spotted.
