Amazing terrain! I have to ask how long did each step take my brother and I have wanted to make a winter city looking somewhat like this do you do commissions or sell components like walls?

apx 35mins for the panels to cure, then gluing, then painting... Soo a while. (total of aproximately 6 hrs per ruin (although if you are making a bunch the time overlaps as it mostly consists of waiting for things to dry...)

[quote=_Apollo_ 391231 4684839 nulldo you do commissions or sell components like walls?

Sure do.

well in imperial measurements its 4ft by 6ft in three 2ft by 4ft panels. since a meter is roughly 3ft. three 2/3 Meter by 1and 1/3 meter panels.

my current plans are a bit smaller... i have boards of 40cm to 40cm each... and atm six of these... thats around 16 inches to 16 inches... making the board atm 30 inches to 47 inches...


would you think this is playable or is it way too small?


and thanks for the first answer mate!

That would be a bit tight for "full points games" For something like Killteam it could work really well. Most 40k tables are a minimum or 4ft by 4 ft (or 1.3M by 1.3m)

This is some really great scenery, and a really great project.

I really like what you did with the window and door frames, lots of great utility and variety.

The whole process is fantastic and has got me thinking about trying my hand at casting buildings and other small urban terrain.

I'd love to know how you made the road barriers (Jersey blocks?). I can see they come in two parts but I am having trouble working out the process

Thanks man, Casting up stuff is pretty straight forward if a little messy.

The jersy barriers are effectively made from two blocks shaped like the Z blocks from tetris glued back to back.

Hey Galorn, thanks for the response about the Jersey barriers.

I've gone back through the pics and seen their ~ "shape", but I can't figure out how you'd cast that shape...

It's making my brain hurt :(

How easy are these buildings to store?
I'm about to start making some MDF buildings that I've got and I'd like to mount them on bases and embellish them with rubble etc, but that will obviously make each one harder to store.

I'm seriously thinking about getting one of those Hirst Arts floor tile molds too, a really simple and effective way to get uniform floor for all your buildings.
Plus it'll give me the push I need to start delving in to casting

The jersey barrier like bits are made from two parts each shaped kind of like the z component from tetris.
They are as easy to store as any other mounted ruin is. The Hirst arts floor tile molds are super easy to use too.
