I made these on powerpoint, if you want anything else made or instructions please tell me, the first two are meant for IG, one is a supply box and the other is a tent
the second is a wall that looks warpish (for my bro's CSM army) or like warpstone (he is also skaven)
Third is a more complex model of a crater/fox hole
fourth is one of those corner ruins, cut the wall and flooring to you taste

If you want anything i will do my best

Edit: If you want any sort of terrain, i need ideas so i will probably make and post them, criticism is very welcome as this is my first attempt and how else do we learn

They seem pretty simple, but could you put up some instructions or examples? Good idea, by the way

Simple, But a good idea

your examples, as requested (note that they are sloppily and quickly done)

Also, did my math wrong on the crater, here is a fixed one

This has potential.
Thanks.

Uhm..that crater has a...weird...shape.

Good idea, would like to see more pics of finished builds.

Yeah, the crater was one of the tougher ones to make, if you have any requests for your army i will do my best... I will build up another 2 and post the photos

Neat idea, cheap and dirty, love it.

Just something to look at, if you are really interested in doing more complex terrain and using paper as a medium, there is a program called pepakura that is great for this sort of thing. I think the currently most used purpose for it is for costume making (also very cool if you are interested) however, it can easily be scaled down to this sort of purpose, you just need to find a base 3d model for the pepakura program.

Simple and cool stuff here.

I was irritated by it looking similar to a swastika :/

I think we all are

I'd love to see some tau-ish looking terrain (or eldar or dark eldar for that matter).

Huh, I think that is a rather a brilliant idea! (well the swastika looking crater before build is a bit unnerving but it cannot really be helped)

Can you give some Infinity terrain a try?

Pics or desciptions are necessary unless you want

Lizardmen
Space marines
Skaven
Lotr
Spikey marines
IG
Orks
High elves

This is what I am familliar with and/or have played with or often against... I want to make a spawning pool fof my zards but I will do my best with what you want.

I am soooo lost when it comes to tau and DE as I cannot begin to imagine what their homeworlds look like. Eldar will be very tough as their buildings are mostly curves. I could try on a webway portal and maybe stuff from DoW 2

And I have never heard of infinity so I need an explanation there

I have looked at it several times, and just do nazi a problem.


Anyway, cool idea, OP. I hope to see more cool stuff like this from you.

I like the idea. Always a fan of quick and easy for our hobbies. I'll probably stencil it onto cardboard so it's a tad more resilient, but it's still quite awesome.

I doubt the Swastika was intentionally meant with a negative connotation in this particular context; it's just the way the paper needs to be folded.

Thanks OP

great idea!

I will have a vote, depending on which has been chosen by the end, that is what i will make next (i will probably make all of them in the end)


Lizzies spawning pool
The dark portal (from wow)
a crashed land raider (this will be very tough)
land mines
different types of tent (modern and medival)
supply box assortment
Hills (not quite as tough as the land raider but will be very useful)
Roads (modern and medival with bends, forks and intersections)
terrain tiles (maybe my best idea yet, an assortment of large tiles to be trimmed then put together as a cheap realm of battle)

The wall was fun and easy to make at least.

Shall I make the reichstag for you? Use it as a chaos shrine. Please tell me what armies you play or what you want from the list I just posted. I have a long plane flight ahead of me and I need to download the textures I need by tomorrow

I'm actually quite interested in "The Dark Portal". That'll be pretty neat to fight over.

Might I ask for a watch-tower of sorts?

If you come up with any other ideas, I do Nids, SW, and DE. And I also do Cryx from Warmachine, if it tickles your fancy.

Watch tower will be made, space wolf style.. I doubt it will tickle my fancy as i heve never even look at the warmachine website

BUT, i can roll out the space wolves and other imperial stuff easily

*fistpump*

Thanks dude. Have a safe flight, I hope your cause for travel is a positive one.

semi positive as i am returning to school

the first is a small block which is constructed like the wall, it is put on the top of the second model to make a tall watchtower or can be used as blocks to make custom buildings

my pleasure to make this

And thanks again for this, I've now the means to make an entire fort at little to no cost besides paper (or cardstock/cardboard).

Good luck with classes

no problem, and if anyone has requests i can try to do them as soon as possible

and please psot pictures of finished work and/or suggestions for the future

Sorry, I didn't notice the peperuka mention until now, I have tried it, hated it and find this easier

how about some lizard-men stuff?

Hey hey hey, another zards player?
