I know its not for everyone, but I definitely dig those plastic plants. I think I'll go about securing some. Also small buildings are nice. It's often easy to make large buildings when you DIY (at least for me), but they block up the table to much and aren't as useful.
And it needs some odalisques in there  , or karakuri if thats your thing

Is there a way to get from the inside to the top? I didn't notice it, but then again, it's entirely possible that I just didn't see it.

There is no way to get to the top from the inside..... but now there is a staircase outside !

So building #1 is done. I'm not going to use any paint for this table project.
Only cardboard of various thickness, colour and glue. The base plate is 10"x11".
Next building in line is a condo complex...

Looking pretty cool, wonder how the whole table will look like.

Looks fun. Think im a bit off on the solid black with no highlights or texture on such a textured board?
Maybe just super sprayed black in terrain does my head in

This is black cardboard. No spray paint was used.
Its scenery for a gaming store so I don't want to spend too much time painting it as it will get damaged anyway...
but I could add coloured cardboard on some surfaces to break the black masses.

Decided to drop the condo complex idea as it would take too much room on the table.
Instead I upgraded the unit with an indoor garage and a small terrace.
Everything opens up for playability

What scale cars are you using?
They seem to fit/scale perfectly!

Made in China scale.... they don't mention it unfortunately. I bought those for 5$ each at a small toy store.

Excellent stuff! Loved the last blog, and have subbed to this one as well
Alph, think you can look for anything around 1/48 to 1/52 scale for Infinity. I've got some die-cast stuff and that seems about right.
