Jungle Temple/BB Scoreboard

[Mason]

Everything is falling into place nicely.
 

Looking forward to the colouring-in.

Colouring-in largely complete!

Only thing left to do is gloss varnish over the pools and then some flock around the base.

[Mason]

Very nice!
 

I like what you did with the pools.
Clever.

I can see a small golden idol sitting in the centre alcove, and a certain hat-wearing archeologist trying to figure out the riddle of those numbers

question though on the back side what are the cause of the what looks like groups of gouges???

Angry Kroxigors taking out their frustrations on the temple stonework. 

Actually, it's tearing of the foam from cutting it, and I didn't bother re-cutting that surface more carefully to get rid of the tears.

When I'm back in July from my European bike trip I'll be building dugouts and trackers (turn & reroll) to match this temple, and I'll probably also do a series of semi-modular non-Bloodbowl temple pieces for pulp gaming, mostly because this sort of stonework on styrofoam is so much fun to do and so easy.

Wow, that looks fantastic.  Im getting Crash Bandicoot vibe from it.

Great work!

[Wirelizard]

C'est fini!

Gloss varnish in the pools (three coats, might do a fourth tomorrow if I get around to it), all three indicator cubes finished.



It's currently 2-1 in the Very Sunny weather for whoever's playing blue side today; proceedings are being watched by a Baby Croc on top of the temple's central section and a Saltwater Croc & Leviathan Croc down on the ground in front.

I might at some future date re-do or add to the indicator cubes, as I'm not entirely happy with their current design. That said, they're perfectly functional now and will probably serve for years in their current state!

[Mason]

Brilliant finish.
Love it!

Resurrecting my own thread to show off the very, very early stages of a new dugout temple.

Like the dugout cards that come with the Bloodbowl box, this one has the three dugout spaces across the front, and the roof tiles will be marked for Turn, Half & Reroll tracks.

I'll be doing a second dugout after this one is finished, which will be roughly similar (and the same footprint) but not identical.

[Wirelizard]

Major construction complete, lots of detailing yet to do. That wide front face is going to be broken up with some extra columns and such, and there's lots of stone carving coming!

The dino skull marker is on a 25mm slottabase, for some idea of scale. The whole thing is 7.5" wide, 6" deep, and about 3.5" high. I sized each of the three dugout spaces (Reserves, KO'd, Casualties) to hold at least six bulky figures on 25mm bases, which should be enough for most Blood Bowl games! The two platforms will have a steep flight of stairs up to them, and the central area will have two small decorated stub walls coming out from the sides of the platforms to screen it off a bit.

The two central "keystone" pieces of the roof will be First Half/Second Half, the eight squares on the left will be Turns 1-8, and the squares down the right will be for Re-Rolls. The roofline and general layout were roughly inspired by Aztec and especially Mayan temple complexes, obviously adapted to be functional in BB as well!

[Wirelizard]

Built a dice tower over the last couple of evenings, mostly because I didn't have enough mattboard in the stockpile to start on the second dugout temple.



The dugout is 7.5" wide, 6" deep and about 4" tall; the main part of the dice tower is 6" wide, 3" deep and 3.5" tall, with the catch area another 5" x 3" or so and a separate piece from the tower so that it all fits in the big shoebox the dugout is resting on in the photo.

Much carving and putty work left to do on both pieces, and then of course there's the second dugout to start.

Blog post with a bit more detail.

Very nice. Can't wait to see the end of this

[Mason]

A great project to follow.
 


I used to be mad into Blood Bowl with six finished teams, re-roll and turn counters for each, the works.
I sold all bar one now as we, as a group, had stopped playing for too long.

I always fancied doing stuff like dug-outs etc.
It is good to watch yours develop instead.
