Welcome to Dakka mate!

I've been following your thread on the Infinity forum and it's been a great inspiration in getting my own scenery up together!

Glad to read that. I think we all inspire one another. ;-)

I was going to ask where that sweet hex tiled board came from, clicked on your link and read:

Made from corkscrew boards bought at the dolllar store. Once hardened with wood glue and painted the board be at par with the MAS Buildings - I think ?

Now that is some dedication!

Nice board indeed!

I really like it. I´m also following your thread in the Infinity-Forum. I think it´s very inspiring to see how you build up your terrain. Keep up the great work!

How did you do those planters? I've been meaning to do some of my own, and those look simple enough that I might be able to get myself to do them

Cork board. Wood glue. Dark gray base coat. Light gray dry brush + dollar store greenery :

THIS - is just FREAKING Awesome. Good on you man. This is inspiring.

Will you be posting some battle reports on that monster over on the infinity forums? Because that would look freaking epic

I have a very bad memory when it comes to write battle reports. But I'll try.

Just take some notes I always take notes when I'm supposed to batrep. If I don't it never works..

Wow some great terrain going on here. One thing I noticed is when you play Infinity your love and appreciation for terrain goes up as well.

I found that with Infinity my appreciation for the movement phase has gone through the roof, when I played 40K it was all about the shooting phase, but with all the terrain movement is king now all in all it's much more interesting than just shuffling a gunline of space marines around and doing very little.

True that and then some. As our local Infinity club gains momentum this autumn, it seems like making good terrain is gaining priority fast. Playing on regular old gamestore terrain just won't cut it, because so many of the game's most interesting rules really shine on intricately-modeled boards.

Back on the original topic: Marc, batreps are a lot easier when you have a third person hanging around watching and taking notes (and pictures!). It's pretty engaging actually, and almost as fun as playing. Plus, the observer inevitably gets to make the call on sticky rules issues

This makes me want to get started back up with my Infinity board.

Looking great. Loving the ingenious hexagonal cork board. Get some details on the buildings and it will be close to perfect!

I love the planters. The cork actually looks like a marble pattern.

The plastic plants inside though looks like they could be hit with some paint or matt sealer or something. I guess you could say the "look" plastic is the only thing I can come up with.

True. That's part of my to do list of phase 2 : detailing.

Cool stuff here, looks like it would make for some great games!

So finally made my choice for the buildings.
Army Painter desert brown as base coat, Troll Slayer Orange Gw, Elysian Green GW.
Fits in nicely with my Yu Jing army.

Comm tower made with a Brita Filter, fire alarm bit and Pegasus games bits. Crates are from MAS and Antenocities.

The base boards are made with masonite, steel ruler and an Xacto knife to make the grooves. (Never cut towards yourself, always cut away from your hand and fingers!)

Comm tower:


Administrative building:


I love the MAS District product line. Use your imagination and presto you have a unique building !

Looks really amazing, I love the effort you have made with those apartment buildings!

Tx.. District-5 appartements, guard tower and catwalks are a great system that allows for a lot of permutations with the right scratch built add-ons.

Next project : The radar station with Crow Nest walkways on the roof.


«Father Lucian Sforza in Crow Nest »

Looking Fantastic! I know I'd love to play on that.

Tx mate! Can't wait to play on it myself ! Still 6 buildings to go

awesome work

Third building finished : Container depot

Excellent table! Are those pillars representing and energy/holo fence? Everything looks awesome.

Really nice work, love the idea of the energy fence!

What models did you use for the various pieces?

Tx guys !

So the breakdown goes like this :
- The «energy fence» is made from bits of the Pegasus Games power plant.
- Crates are from Antenocities Workshop.
- The containers are from an old out of print game called AT-43.
- Sidewalk made with regular masonite.

I have a 4 day weekend coming up. I'm hoping to finish another building.
Stay tuned.

Not been in for a while. Looking great. The different flooring breaks up the board very nicely. Looking forward to more!
