That looks awesome. I imagine that terrain would make for some fantastic games.

I'm hoping that on Friday the guys will think so also.

I may add a bit here and there as I have made some more small Jenga steps in this theme.

Not really a Pulp game planned this time around but maybe next week? (VSFish theme this week)

But that's the beauty of these bits! Anytime, anyplace, anywhere?

Love it!
 

Plenty of great opportunities for gaming shenanigans on all those levels.

That really looks great!  Wonderful feel to it.

Blimey, that's a lot of scenery for almost nothing! 

Inspirational stuff! 

[MalcyBogaten]

Thanks a lot! There's definitely a lot of scope for shenanigans!

Here are some more bits I'm in the process of adding.

The Resin Maw gateway from that well known company I've used bits from before? (But forgot their name again )

Again the main block is a certain proprietary cake box with added adhesive address labels and wooden puzzle bits.

I have yet to PVA scatter to the projects! There are 2 virtually identical pieces! I had 2 of the Resin bits









Hope you like the current state of them. I find the label effect quite an effective way of giving relief to objects and the scatter will be tactically applied to cover any gaps!

Here are the PVA and scatter added Maw Gates and some more connecting flatter bits I've added!

The Maw Gate with Scatter


Not quite in place!

A Large Flatter piece for innards.

Most of the bits do push together, but there is some minor warping and you have to place strategic extra bits to plug gaps!

Overall though I'm happy with the flexibility it offers. I'll live with the downside of warping boxes!

that looks really great.  sorry if it was asked already - what do you use for the scatter?

It's normal railway scatter! Just so many different bags of the stuff, that I had left over from other things! All mixed together in a big plastic tub!

Don't ask me which brand or grades were used I just threw them all in and clipped the top on! Then gave it a shake.

And I've just noticed in one of the piccies that there's some PVA that didn't get any scatter in the Mouth of the Maw!

Chaos is my name!

[MalcyBogaten]

A different layout sorry but only one piccy! I'm still playing with bits at the moment.

New bits added are courtyard tiles, made out of the hardcard canvas covered boards you can buy from in the UK Poundland or The Works publishers. Again covered in address adhesive labels and painted suitably.

Can't really see them well here though they are the lower middle bits of the complex!

Looks awesome! 

[Mason]

Looks awesome! 

It certainly does!

This is fabulous!  Love your Blackhawks!

[Mad Lord Snapcase]

That looks fantastic, very atmospheric. I see you got the same three statues as I did, Dunelm Mill?

Yeah same Statue set! But B&M ("Bargains & More" I believe?) From my local store near Birmingham. UK.
Only £2.99.
At one point they had a Buddha's head bust at about 1/3rd scale for £1.99 in Ceramic. (I didn't at the time! Could kick myself now!)

The Blackhawks are Heroclix and all I did was re-base really and dry-brush the uniforms a tad! (Miniscule actually as the paintjob on the ones I got was very good to start with) So I can't really take the credit for those.

Thanks for all the comments. More when the lighting improves in my wargame room!

[MalcyBogaten]

Here are some of the expansion module terrain pieces in various states of distress!

Plus another little shot of the layout with a wooden puzzle pyramid I'm going to paint!

Two smaller platform type pieces before painting. Labels over small card boxes.


Larger triple cake box platform.


Medium platform painted but not scattered yet.


Small Platform painted but not scattered.


The Wooden Puzzle on top of a Medium platform and you can see the Small platform under the steps.


The glossy address labels do hamper painting slightly but a light watery base coat. (Left to dry.) Then normal painting can commence.

Even more scope for temple madness!!
