Hey all, my table for Warmahordes is practically complete and I thought I'd share the results with you guys.
My first attempt at making a table was done using Foamular insulation foam. It started out seeming like a promising medium, but, after applying spray paint, the foam started to melt and I was back to square one. (Pictures of the failed foam table can be seen on my blog if you're actually interested.)
For my second attempt, I went with some 1/4" fiberboard in two 2' x 4' sheets. From there I picked up some cheap Home Shades light gray primer at Walmart and went to work. The primer was a bit splotchy at first, so I was initially worried at how the final results would look. After getting the boards primed, I went to work with some Rust-oleum rock-textured spray paint. The final results definitely exceeded my expectations, especially for a first custom table. It's drying right now, but once I get the clear coat on it will be ready for action. I'm planning on adding some terrain features and whatnot in the coming weeks (also, I nabbed a bucket full of rocks from the local river to use until I get some terrain features made). I apologize in advance for the enormous pictures...my phone can only go big or go home. Let me know what you think.
