  1. some simple baking soda on thin glue helps and many modelers use it for filler in small gaps

    use GEL style, sets up quicker and fills inthe gaps nicely

    It is MY prefered bonding method

    PINNING!

    at some point you gotta just buckle down and buy the $13 kit and pin the joints before you glue them

  2. Those look great. :)

    Did you make them yourself or did you loot the materials from somewhere?

    TOTALLY looted!

    the ice slides were from 2 diffrent Heroclix Iceman figs

    My intention was to use them to make a proxy SNOWSTORM

    but after seeing it's a 50mm base, there would be no way to get the figs to work witht he Iceslides...

    I couldn't let them go to waste... so I figured the little Ice Gamin could use a cool base...!

  3. I recommend that you start with the special scenario terrain, like a cemetary or the soulstone vein, as described in the encounters section. They're useful for the game and extremely characterful.

    Our League group here in Cincinnati did just that-

    we all (Made)contributed terrain based on our Masters "Themed" zones (more or less) and all based upon the encounters

    Guild court house(Stucco & Wood-slat)

    Sewer system (victorian stone and Teracotta pipe)

    Theater (Western/Alaskan Boomtown )

    Western styled Hotel

    Sherifs outpost (Puebla styled)

    Scrapyard (brass & clockwork clutter)

    Swamps/Bayou shantys

  4. I'm not a big Zombie, nor Horror fan really

    but several of my friends are... so I figured WTH!?

    I just finished the first Omibus of the Origional comic series(Volume 13 of the Graphic novel series comes out this month)

    and based on what's in the comic I'm quite impressed with the tv series so far

    I like it

  5. I understand "Fixed Terrain"

    but fixed squads and fixed objectives/encounters seems to go badly against the grain of the game-

    part of the process (and advantage) of playing this game is the step of:

    seeing the terrain

    and recognizing the encounter THEN building the squad that helps handle that...

    Handicaping a player (as I see it) would only HURT the experience and limit the range of "Meta" for your players chosing their masters/squad

  6. I just saw this page and it is one of the most impressive terrain pages I've ever seen. The techniques are intended to create fine scale dioramas, and will therefore require a little adaptation for the durability needs of wargaming terrain, but I am eager to try some of these techniques out.

    WOW!

    EXCELLENT find!

  7. I've actually had a great deal of success with the Latest GW "How to build terrain" book

    if you can find it on the cheap (it usually MSRP's for $29.99) it's totally worth having!

    in addition

    i've gone to the local library and pulled up old articles on beginer railroad terrain and have had a great deal of success with the tips thery offer; they's simple and efficient

    because Malifaux has a WIDE draw from MANY diffrent generas, like Lobo said, you almost can't go wrong with whatever you try

    further, my primary reccomendation, which seems to be the MAIN repeated point from all resources...

    build to be STURDY not just pretty

    you'll be happier in the long run

    there's few things worse than putting hours and $$$ into a project only to find it didin't last through the week at the Game Store while you were gone
