The sweltering heat inspired me to make some pools for our suburban Røvede city setting.

What, if you had the money wouldn't you shape one after your royal highness?
Fill it with bikini girls.

I imagine that Røvede's local playboy had the money. .... lol

Well, there's already a heart and a kidney, why not continue with another organ? lol
Seriously, great idea. I don't think I've ever seen a swimming pool used as a terrain feature for urban gaming before, makes perfect sense and so much easier to model than a natural water element.

Clearly the top left pool is intended for the use of Amalric's junk.

Neat result.

The only other pools I have seen are on Shapeways http://www.shapeways.com/model/499060/15mm-swimming-pool-style-1.html

A semi submerged Rolls Royce would look good in the Gentleman's sausage shaped pool. lol

I might as well post the next batch of city terrain we're doing here instead of making a new thread all the time.



Sheds cut by my mate and sandboxes cut by me. Notice the difference in skill.  lol

I gave it all a quick paint of wash and then mixed some metal and grey for the roofs.

Toys in the sandboxes are Epic 40000 miniatures

I really like the nonchalant way you draw the conversation away from private parts.

...

Oh, the terrain is cool, too ;)
