So ask one of my fellow players what my next project was and he told me He wanted some craters. And I told him to be alittle more Creative about it So he told me he wanted me to make him death city so here is the Start of death city. So this is from cutting to painting the First coat With out details gonna make some movable ruble and A grave yard. Also if you happen to have any extra tyranid bits would love to buy them in bulk.

I Will be painting them more and I am gonna be making movable Ruble.

Looks cool, and great idea for getting the most out of the foam.

I would suggest to break up some of the straight lines on he buildings ... tear out some gouges etc. so they are not as similar and angular.

Can't wait to see more, thanks for sharing!

Breaking up the straight lines would do a lot to make the buildings look more realistic, more interesting, and less like they were obviously cut from the same sheet of material. That being said, these look good so far.

yoooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu really need to break up those straight lines. then you also need to decorate the buildings from outside, as well as add details to the insides of the buildings, and rubble rullbe rubble rubble rubble rubble everywhere. doohickeys like lamps, toilets, sinks, pipes, floor boards, dolls, tiny tanks, posters etc. are all good stuff, but it's all auxiliary to what I mentioned above. Cityscape stuff is not easy, I started doing it, and quickly abandoned it.

Yeah this was one days worth of work And they were playable i am still working on my army Hive Fleet Hentia

The straight lines are for his symmetry that he must have.

What are you talking About. Lies

A suggestion would be to take some bamboo skewers (cheap option) or solid plastic rod (better option as you can heat/bend them)

Then have them jutting out where the walls are collapsed to look like exposed steel reinforcement rods.

Next would be a mix of light, medium, and heavy ballast. Apply some thick tacky glue (cheap and is basically thick elmers glue) to the top parts of exposed walls. Then haphazardly slap the "rubble mix" onto it.

It will break up all those straight edges where it look like the buildings were cut vs broken.
