Here's the beginning of everything. You gotta eat a lot of Pringles to make this kinda terrain.


Here's the first tower as it is progressing. I've superglued those ladders to the cardboard upright pieces. I hope they don't pop off as time goes by.


Look at the top floor in this picture. You can see that I've glued cardboard and mattboard triangle to the underside of the floors. These little bits really help to strengthen and stabilize the whole structure.


Here is a top down view. I still need to add a lot of cereal box cardboard to cover up the corregations and to add some surface details.


Lemme know what you think.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347106.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347106.page GMT . I always wondered why the ladders were outside the walls and why peopl would have to swing around to get to the next level.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347143.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347143.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347177.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347177.page GMT @schank23 -- Thanks! I'm hoping to inspire others to make great cheap terrain themselves. Please, copy anything and everything.

@Theophony -- Thanks! I'm just sort of following the old Necromunda terrain for the ladder placement, but have no fear, I have another building in the works with a more conventional ladder placement.

Here is the basic structure of the three can liquid storage terrain piece.


Here you can see that I used strips of cereal box cardboard to hide the corrugations in the box cardboard.


Here's a side shot of the storage tanks so far. I added ladders to both sides and put some surface detail on the top in the form of circular access panels with big rivet-bolt-things.


Here's a close up of the lids on top.


Here is a good shot of everything that I accomplished. This was a really simple piece to make, but I think it has a nice overall look. I'm planning on making another one to help extend the industrial theme of this terrain set.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347882.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/725226/9347882.page GMT

Here is my newest tower. It has a more conventional ladder arrangement right up the middle. This is nice as it saves me on ladders.


Corrugated cardboard forms the basic structure of the tower with cereal box cardboard used to cover the edges and to add little details.


Again I used triangles of cardboard to support the overall structure by placing them under each floor.


Here is a miniature for scale. I am using a 3" standard height for the levels just like in Necromunda.


I've started adding cereal box cardboard to texture the floors of each level. I plan to do something similar to the sides.


Here is the three can liquid storage container primed. What color should I paint it? I'm thinking about something bright for the tanks themselves, maybe red, green or yellow.
