I knocked out about a table's worth of terrain and was wondering what you guys thought. Obviously, the table that I'm using to display it all is pretty small so it would be a lot more spread out if it were a standard size. It's mostly made out of cardboard and styrofoam coated in sand. One of the barricades uses some bits from the bits box. Tools and materials used were a soldering iron, an exacto and some pva glue. Total time spent was maybe 3 hours.

Looks good to me. Simple and clean, but nice looking with pretty good realism. Make some more!

Im guessing you used an Elmers glue type of glue to hold the sand on? If so how perfect, because I was thinking glue would stop styrofoam from melting, when using spray paint on it.
nice job tho, those looks great

Yeah I just use some no name brand of white glue that I get from hobby lobby. 12 bottles for $2.99 lasts a while.

Gordino there are also some spray paints out there that wont melt styrofoam but you have to be careful hehe. I dont have any left so I cant tell you what kind it is but I used it on a crapload of pink foam terrain I did for an indy GT.
