Wild West house
« on: November 21, 2016, 04:48:59 PM »
My nephew asked me for a few western games, as he was painting some mexicans. He gived me a two week deadline to find a rule and preparing a table. Being poor in western scenery, it was hard to cover the table with a few Sarissa adobe buldings soooooo.....

Concept: Modular buildings and easy storage. A few days to draw


Printed in 3D some basic shapes, and added cardboard. Another few lot of days to print. The buildings are made with detachable panels.


Only a couple of days before the shootout, quick and horrible base painting. The signs are affixed with adhesive rubber and can be removed. The thin walls (3mm) are sturdier enough to be vigourously assembled and violently taken apart.


It was sufficient to give a cinematic look on the table, but I'm working on a better looking option: sculpting all the planks one by one and adding them on the previous model:


Next step: adding removable awnings and signs, modelling a saloon - bank - prison etc...

Cheers

Perhaps look at using magnets rather than rubber adhesive for your signs? Otherwise very nice.
