The budget for the table is $50 bucks of direct purchases. What this means, is anything thats bought specifically for the table, the cost will be deducted from the budget. After making initial purchases, I feel that I will not be able to accomplish this goal. But I want to stick as close to it as possible. If anyone is curious of the exact budget breakdown, I'll post it.

Current Budget Left: $13.22

What really killed the budget, and it was a big impulse by on me was the helicopter used for scaling. I should have just used papercraft as I had originally intended. After using a coupon, the model was still 9 bucks. Its going to take a lot of creative couponing to get this build done nicely without going to far over budget. I need to track down some 40k Vehicle panelings and such for cheap, thats going to be the next big purchase for the board.

The table itself with be a 4x4 table, with 4 2x2 sections. Each section will have a "theme" or idea behind its purpose. The whole table is going to be based on the idea of a military estate.

The first section currently under design is the Helipad/Landing Port section.




Not sure if I'm going to have the walk-way from the pad to the control tower opened to place figures in, or if its going to get turned into a catwalk of sorts. I also need to find something to fill in the gap in the board where the masking tap is sitting at. Debating on replacing the popsicle stick railing for the landing pad is going to stay or if I should figure something else out for it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/477458/4786975.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/477458/4786975.page GMT Casiodorus' Budget Infinity Game Board
For the railing, I think you can go two ways, either make it look part of the building, in which case I would use cardboard with rivets, Of you can make it look like its run down and they have repaired it with wooden planks.
