Alrighty, since my Quarantine Zone board is nearly complete I have started planning my next board. Thanks to popular demand on the poll I put up a few weeks back the board is going to be Obliteration and/or death themed. The basic thought is "What if two crews went through portals to pull off some scheme **in** Obliteration?"...what would that look like? Well, Obliteration being Obliteration the obvious answer is "nothing"...but nothing makes for a boring table.
My first instinct is to go mono-chromatic black, with a few highly contrasting, spots of color. Most everything will be black, highlighted up to no more than charcoal grey (i.e. very dark grey). I'm thinking that a blasted landscape/barren desert approach might work well with most of the LOS blocking features being hills of one kind or another. Those hills will have a ton of death themed elements, in this case skull shaped rock formations (perhaps with portals of some kind in any cave entrance). There will be a river, but instead of water if will be a "river of stars". I'll paint nebulae and start formations, apply resin, more paintwork, etc to give it a 3D effect. Then maybe add some "obliterated" buildings...thinking AoS terrain kits for that.
This doesn't account for some kind of dense terrain and/or severe/hazardous terrain...I'm open to suggestions/comments/your own ideas on what the Obliteration dimension would look like other than "Duh, it's Obliteration so there isn't anything there".
