Been a while and I have been working on stuff!

Unfortunately bad lighting due to my backroom and the time of year has curtailed piccies as of yet!

But....I've been working on Jenga block walls, more palm tree bases and aquarium plant bases.

I'll post when I have decent lighting and have got some in their various stages. (The Walls that is! I've done the foliage)

I'll be attending the Birmingham Toy Soldier show in Edgbaston Cricket ground this SUnday. Too see if there is anything that may be turned to my advantage from the piles of Plastic there!

All this will eventually make an appearance.

Have Pulpy fun!

A couple of Pics of the WIP of modular Jenga Walls I'm going to try out.
Not to sure of the stability aspects but another idea for filling in and adding onto the structures of Jaffa.

I have yet to paint these bits obviously.

Wall section approx 1.5" high and 2" long/width.


Going to be an entryway or portal. 2.25" high and 2" long/width.


Shrubery! Made out of Aquarium plants, Small toy Palm Trees, Beads and any stands or thick card lying about!
Base is then covered in multi-purpose filler and painted. (Possibly will scatter them later)

The Beads in their jars. Got these from "The Works Publishers Shop" £1 a jar mixed contents. I have seperated them as much as possible between the 2 jars by type!


Components Aquarium Plants (No Palms as I'd already used them all!) Plus the different bead types. (Patterned ones I tend to use as decoration rather than basing components)


After being superglued to the base the beads then take the plant stem and you can cover the bead and the base in filler. Then paint.



Both together


I find the beads make the cut down trees and plants easier to stick to the bases and you can stuff other fronds of foliage into the bead holes!

I will use PVA and my scatter material on all of these plus probably darken the tree trunks as they are a bit garish!

[MalcyBogaten]

Well at least I got one side of my Jenga walls finished!

Now I've got to do the reverse of all these! Maybe not the doorways? As I may stick these to other structures!

A doorway/portal.


The Walls.


Kinda set up? But I'm going to intermingle them with the rest of Jaffa's Temples!

Reaper Mini for Scale.


Got about 15 and can make more with the left-overs. Working on corner pieces which will be 2 blocks on end if needed.

Here we see my left-over Domino collection being made into T junctions for my bridges!

Just leave a Domino gap in the middle of one or both walls.


Fill in the floor gap that is left with your preferred filler! Milliput here and a bit rough.


I haven't decided yet whether I want cross-road bridge sections? As I don't really think I'll need them.
Mainly because the table would get a bit to complicated with all the bridges!

I only have 2 of these.

Clever! Love seeing all the cool material you use. 

[Traveler Man]

Nice work with those bridge sections! I can see them having all kinds of gaming uses.

I hope so and with the way I'm adding on to them I need more supports!

Here are the Cross Junctions I'm building at the mo!




I had to put the end dominos upright? (If that's the right term for standing them on end?) To make the walls complete. But I think it will add to the architecture a bit anyway!

[MalcyBogaten]

Well here's my new build of another section of Jaffa! This time a "Lake Jaffa Frontage"

It's a kinda WIP! As I have yet to decide what else to add!  

But bad photos not holding me back from trying out my Domino Bridge Sections.
Sorry about the photos but I do have trouble seeing if they are in focus till I download them.











Gotta go through my other bits and pieces to add various clutter but I think? Bad photos and all! You get the idea!

[d phipps]

WOW! ... WOW! ...and WOW! 

[Traveler Man]

Good Heavens!  What a layout!  I envy your gamers, playing over that!

[Sunjester]

That looks so amazing and really inspiring. I'm going to hit the local poundshop for dominoes the next time I'm in town.

[Andym]

WOW! That looks like a really fun game!
