Just started to dip my toe into the scenery pool - here is what I have done so far

 

[mughi3]

Urban mat layout version 2

This is more of a ruined hive city mat. 

[mughi3]

We played the heck out of the imperial city table for the last month, so we decided to bring the mechanicus forge table back with a slightly different layout. 

 

 

[Bouargh]

Here is a selection of mine - mostly Sector mechanicus / Vertigus + two built from spares, bits and card...

 

[FollowerofDG]

Your terrain is incredible. Man it’s awesome….

[mughi3]

Tried something a bit different with the mars table this time-imperial strong point.

That scenery is fantastic. I'd love to print some stuff like that but for some reason I've been struggling to get the prints to work properly lately.

A little different layout for the strongpoint for todays game-

 

 

 

 

 

And how it looks when overrun by demons and chaos word bearers ala 3.5 edition chaos codex in our 5th ed hybrid games facing salamanders (5th) with allied demon hunters. 

 

the demonic incursion is real.

My scratch built necromunda table. Currently 3x3, looking to expand it with 3 more tiles to make it 4x3 soon.

 

[Jolemai]

Any tips for doing similar?

I'm making another tile now, so I'll take some photos tonight and start up a thread if I remember.

 

But overall, any areas painted grey for concrete, that is xps foam. The buildings/shacks are foamcore. Much use of corrugated card for making roofs/scrap metal. Mixed in some MDF (mainly walkways) and a few bits of GW kits. thick card (cant remember the exact name of it now) was used to make the steel girders, edging and detailing, along with some plaster casts of random pipes and detailing.

 

Each tile was then painted/sealed with a modgepodge and tile grout mix to seal it all and give some texture. Then the entire piece was sprayed black, dark brown, dark red, silver (each layer getting less). Then It was a sepia and burnt umbra (and a splash of yellow) put into a cup of water to make a filthy wash that was liberally pasted over the entire thing.

 

That gave the base over which I painted the gray concrete, and then identified anything that was being painted to break up and give some spot colours. These were sponged with a latex masking stuff. Once that was dry, I used art acrylic paints (bright ones) to do the colours, then when it was dry you rub the latex mask off and that gives the rust/worn look, which then had streaks of rust applied around/below using the same burnt umba/sepia wash as before.

 

Finally it was details picking out, grafiti added and posters to give that lived in feel.

 

Oh, this was all spawned from watching Eric's hobby workshop on youtube, he made a single video about creating a shanty town underhive thing, which I loved and made me want to do similar, so I started with the left corner tile as a version inspired by his vid, and the rest grew from there

Updated with armoured containers from Sector Munitorum - can´t wait the release of the Promethium tanks (Necromunda) to complete a cargo bay battlefield:

A quick shot from a (very dramatic) Kill Team game over the weekend, showing the back 1/2 of a terrain piece, as well as a custom objective marker I made.

 

(Note that the Eldar Corsair is still a WIP!)

Put the gale force 9 terrain on the old infinity outpost table for a 5th edition 40K game this weekend-

I've had a bunch of scenery sitting around in boxes for a while now (in some cases, years) and finally got the motivation, tools and paint to tackle it. Necormunda tiles first. My first ever oil wash and I am extremely pleased.

[Corswain]

Sorry to double post but I wanna get the last of my terrain jobs up. Like I said, there are dome very old kits here:

 

Extremely happy with these and so happy with Contrast. Would have taken me a lot longer without it.

[Firedrake Cordova]

Nice work on them! Nice to see some classic models. 

[mughi3]

The spotlight this time around is 3D printed terrain from forbidden prints industrial set i recently picked up. 

We have a bit of the district 0012 in there as well. 

 

 

[The Yncarne]

Nice work throughout this thread. Here's a few pics. More in my blog post on this topic.

 

 

 

 

Thanks for looking.

[Corswain]

Love the shrine. A great use for some classic bits. Excellent way to give those models some extra life.

2 new pieces of terrain using scrap and unused spares + dry clay.

Legend tells that the MkVII Marines Statue at Warhammer World entrance was changed for a Stormcast eternal for AoS promotion purpose.

Wrong: with this undisputable proof, we can see that the former statue was in fact used as a training target by GSC invaders... (see NEXOS attack map on webstore for the only documented proof of this insurection...)

 

 

More seriously, done from rests of plasticard, a Space Crusade SM (uncomplete - I do not know from where or who I got it; I never owned space crusade neither played it except on Atari ST....), and lots of icons and seals from the bitzbox. 

 

Updated 14-01-23: here is a second thing I just finished. A half burried chimera chassis. To be used as LoS blocking item/small vantage point/hill...

 

 

Made out from spare parts of a Legion Basilisk, plus some bitz fron here or there (tracks from 1st version of plastic Leman Russ, SM Scouts crate, elements of sectro mechanicus....).  I tried to reproduce a Cthonian head hunter scheme for the hull, and I am quite satisfied with it. It allows the wrecked vehicule to denote from the environmental grey (Ashland themed table).

Avoid double post

[Bouargh]

In one month, from a single wrecked Chimera to a complete table, although only for small games so far:

 

 

I am quite proud of the wrecked vehicles. You cna see them in my galleries, so do not hesitate to visit and drop comments and advises.

 

It will probably grow up in size as I´ve done so far only 4oo10 dragon Teeth and as I have at least enough material for a secon wrecked Chimera chassis (spares from Legion Basilisks) and so many bitz from Leman Russes, Predators...

[Reskin]

dude that’s sick, that’s exactly what I wanna do, I’ve got a storm raven and a demolisher I want to cut up and use as terrain
