Median Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 So, I've just managed to aquire 2 5ft by 3ft (ish) pieces of foam board (high density foam cover in a matt plastic)to make terrain with.... I've had many ideas in the past for making different things but now I've got the material I really have no idea where to start. So given the choice what would you imperial guard vets make? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313809-a-question-of-terrain/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 How deep are they? What about a trench network, that would be cool and you could make it highly modular for endless replay value :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313809-a-question-of-terrain/#findComment-4174380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Median Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 They are about 6mm deep. Hard as nails. The kinda stuff that's perfect for walls etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313809-a-question-of-terrain/#findComment-4174416 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nismogrendel Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Check this terrain tutor channel out: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLohbeH3fTP1ukLXKz_wOPD9-jK6RmMfqU This playlist I linked is called 'How to make foamboard buildings and ruins for urban wargaming' He gets really fancy with his buildings, but you can apply a lot of his techniques to simpler buildings. This video specifically shows a lot of little tips and tricks for cutting and working with foamboard: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313809-a-question-of-terrain/#findComment-4174429 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 There's always the option of layering it up for more depth, but it could make some ruined prefab buildings or a fortification network quite easily. Guess it really is a case of using your imagination :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313809-a-question-of-terrain/#findComment-4174760 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Median Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 I like the fortification network idea. I was thinking maybe a airstrip. With a runway for the bombers and a couple of landing pads for the vendettas and valkyries. Maybe some hangers for the aircraft as well.
