Razelim Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hello, I got a tip for all of you that need a specific material that seems to be raged about when it comes to making levels / terrains. I'm speaking about that good thin cardboard, like the ones that the GW Boxes give you, except better... You see, I work at a liquor store and EVERY DAY I get cases of alcohol and wine bottles, and is just so happens that this boxes bring inside a piece of cardboard that separates Glass Bottles (So they don't break while they are being shipped) and all I can say is... THEY ARE STRONG AND PERFECT FOR MAKING SCENARIOS. [This are all empty] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/Cold_Killer/021912213343.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/Cold_Killer/021312220142.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/Cold_Killer/021912213425.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/Cold_Killer/021912213451.jpg As you can see, just by looking at it, you can tell it's not just your regular cardboard that... well.. sucks. Simply go to a Liquor store near you, and ask for empty boxes, most likely they will carry them in the back (cause we make transfers for store to store) and see if they have the "Bottle Separators" in them. I tend to notice that Wine in specific have this more than your regular Liquor boxes. Oh and also, if your under your age restriction (which is 21 here) please make sure you are attended with an adult... Check this one out, you can EASILY make a building out of this, the frame work is already done right off the start. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/Cold_Killer/021912213706.jpg Alright guys, enjoy!

Sons of the Forge Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 hmmmmmmmmmmmmm never thought of that I to work in retail (At Sainsburys for those in the UK and in the know) I must have seen 1000's of decent materials for buildings while at work from plastic to cardboard. Dont forget to post a pic up with what you make with this material. An please dont make it be a multi-story car park as that is what it looks like at the moment for some reason.
