Hey guys!
decided to make some scenery for BA for my local club. Sadly there arent as many players interetesed in this game as other gaming types so weve had very little funding for the scenery and at most games only able to fill a 4/4 table.
So decided i'd make some myself and hopefully be able to make enough to fill a 6ft table.

Heres what ive made:







(the laminated flooring is 7.5 inches wide (for scale)

















(I cut the door mat to allow it to fit inside the fields to make it suitable for specific gaming themed tables)

All in all, This all came to:

mat £4
lolly pop sticks £3
sand £3
styrofoam sheets for field/road basing £4

£14 in total

cool... I'd just add a wee bit of drybrushing to the wood and then add a wash and you are done in a very good way...
oh and the door mat ... the underside I would try to paint up a wee bit... but actually that might be not needed.... I am extra picky it seems^^

Impressive way of recycling something like that and still find a way to make it look awesome! Nice job!

Thanks guys! How would you recommend the underside? I ran out of styroboard sadly, otherwise I would of made a base for the mats themselves. Thanks though!

I'd just paint it up, either by brush or by simply a brown(?) primer... thus you get the soil like look and you´re golden...

Agree that the fence could do with a bit of highlighting, but I know you have to balance time/effort/end result.
