Making a terrain article

[Tahn]

Hey. I might possibly be making a terrain article for you guys since I have some foamboard.

Terrain articles aren\'t in very high number round here, so I thought I\'d help out and make one. The most recent one was a very well done hill article.

I\'d like to make some thing more extravagant, for my article. Any suggestions? I have Glue, Paints, Brushes, Plasticard (Thin and thick), foam board and much else.

What with the Cities of Death being big right now that might be a good place to start. Also the new Eldar codex coming, so maybe something for that range?

 

[Tahn]

Thats a good idea, since I did see a nice Eldar terrain piece at games day. Are there any other suggestions? Any thing thrilling or interesting that you\'ve wanted to make, but didn\'t know how to, I\'ll be making an article of it! Swarm on me!

If you could show me how to make good looking and relatively easy to do Tau and Eldar terrain (that actually looks like Tau and Eldar terrain) that would be awesome.

 

[Tahn]

Well, Tau and Eldar seem interesting. I\'ll be chosing my favourite suggestion on Saturday night (UK time 10pm-midight). I\'ll be starting the actual thing on Sunday. Any more suggestions?

Depends on your actual skill at terrain

I would like to learn to use my polysytrene cutter better - so if you could include some tips on their use would be much appreciated

 

[Tahn]

Rightio.

So far there are suggestions for:
Cityfight
Eldar
Tau
Tips for a polystyrene cutter

As for your suggestion DaN, I\'ll try my best to include yours no matter what the article will show how to make.

Cheers mate - I just find I have trouble trying to cut the shape I want, given the relatively short length of the wire, and the fact the actual cutter gets in the way, etc etc

I don\'t seem to have a very geometrically-visual mind :/

Ok. I can see this isn\'t going down to well. I\'ll be starting planning tommorow, so if you have any more requests, just reply, or PM me. Thanks.

You could make a Kroot village, with Native-American style tents and stuff. Like I saw in a WD That\'s be cool!

 

[Tahn]

Thanks Bill. Thats just about topped off my plans. Every thing is set... in my mind!

I\'ll be starting up this week, hopefully tommorow

just saw this post, but I would love to see how to make the following :-

A winter set of terrain, with ice and the whole works, frozen rivers etc.
Snow covered trees, frozen trenches, blast marks where shells have fallen and melted the snow, making it muddy before it refroze etc. Can you tell I want a winter board
