I thought of something for my inquisitorial Imperial guard Army(the Inquisitorial Special Operations Command);

The idea is that they are fighting daemons and chaos on daemon worlds and I thought of making something where they are on a daemon world similar to Silent Hill and the world is in the "other world" stage like in the games/movie where everything becomes dark and daemons become a lot more aggressive and the world becomes all scary and stuff

I need ideas for basing and sceneryI(what should I use and stuff) also Has anyone ever tried making a Silent Hill inspired board? Also which Chaos would be more associated with Silent Hill?

Here are some pics and vids and stuff for reference( I particular like the Hellish Industrial looks but I'm open to other ideas)

4ok already tends to share a lot of imagery with silent hill with all the burnt out factories and cathedrals. I'd look at pictures of Centralia, PA (the inspiration for silent hill) and other modern ghost towns like Chernobyl for inspiration.

I've always thought the chernobyl fairgrounds are really interesting images.





Maybe getting some cutsey supplies from dollhouse makers given sufficient weathering might give that same vibe as silent hill, but it would be hard to find things at the right scale.

You should get some weathering pigments for your bases - particularly different shades of rust to really do your theme justice.

The 2nd fair ground pic is really eerie!

@OP, to get a board with this amount of atmosphere would be stunning! If you're going through the effort of making the whole board, i'd suggest putting in lots of little lights, in old buildings and a few street lights and playing in the dark! S#@t ya pants kinda game!

Cool idea! I think Tzeentch god of Change/Fate would be the best fit for silent hill. Because of the way everything in the game keeps changing to lead the character on. Plus Tzeentch likes to use people as pawns in his own game and would be the most likely to make promises of paradise to a bunch of cultists. I would pick up a couple hirst arts molds and a bag of plaster, for about 75 bucks you could do the whole theme.

I would get these molds

if you have never used them before, they are super easy to learn. check out my blog in my sig for some examples of how I have used them....

I found these and these are cheaper then the Secret Weapon equivalent

Also these might be good for the Church related scenary



Any Ideas on what colors I should use for the Silent Hill feel?

And what Scenary and bits I should use as well?

awesome, but I'm not really at the stage of making the board yet but I'll take it into account

I thought Tzeentch would be a good theme for Silent Hill but it seems as if the Other Gods would have something in Silent Hill as well
