Post Apoc Circus
« on: 04 March 2012, 12:51:34 AM »
Hey dudes!

I've been lurking for a while, thought I'd post up a project I just finished. I worked at a FLGS until it went under last year, and while there did a commission for a fella playing Eden for a 2x2 post apoc circus board. He recently contacted me about expanding it out to a 4x4, with a bunch of new pieces. I managed to finally finish it off yesterday, so here are pics of the original board as well as the new stuff. I am hoping he sends me some snaps of the whole 4x4 in action.

Heaps more pics strewn throughout my blog: cutintotheearth.blogspot.com

The Original board

All the little details really make this a gem. It is a theme board the likes of which I have never seen done so well, and so consistently. Thank you for sharing!

I'm pretty sure I've seen these somewhere before, but the pics were really small and ddi not do the project justice.

Really fantastic work.  :-*

You pulled off a really difficult color scheme and made it look ace.

Stellar! Loads of inspiration in the event I can ever dig up some of the Ertl carnival bits! (and if not, it leaves a lot of room for envy :) )
