Using the amazing terrain sent from Archon Studios this huge 20 feet table will be perfect for the new release of Warhammer Apocalypse.
The lads are working on preparing the scaffolding for the terrain using various plywood we've got from the local B&Q, and glueing textured wallpaper to offer that 3D environment to make our games better than ever!
Thanks to The Range we've found the textured wallpaper for all you hobby enthusiasts looking to replicate these tables for your own games.
How tall is too tall for the buildings?
We all know that Blue Tac is really just Smurf Poo so I hate to think what Smurf bodily fluid is in that spray can! I also think this videos proves who wraps the Christmas presents in the Johnson households 🙂
August in the UK and Ireland is also a good month for getting cheap wallpaper in local decorating shops. Some of them will put out there odd single rolls and stuff they can’t sell for cheap – people will be looking stuff to back school books with.
Base boards take time to prepare. I started building a railway in the loft at one point (but sadly had to abandon the project) and just getting the baseboard together took a while.
Good idea with the stone effect wallpaper, should look good.
Sadly your average warmer doesn’t get given vast amounts of spurs so your project would cost a small fortune in plastic for anyone at home to attempt.
If you’ve got any sprues left when you’re done… you might want to give some away as prizes at the Apocalypse weekend… hint… hint…
Yes. I was thinking the same thing about the leftover sprues. A giveaway prize would be awesome. I’m sure they don’t need them all. 🙂
Lovely insight to the wallpapering gents! Cant wait to see this all come together 🙂
You could have a small step ladder on either side of the table next to the tallest building.
Looking amazing guys! Makes me want to dig out my 40K! But I must resist! Stay focused John no squirrel moments!
It is going to be epic and one I know I will regret missing in person… I will be there in spirit for sure
sea man…. sticky stuff…. Guuuuuys….
I need more beer, hadn’t enough obviously XD
Those base boards are going to look awesome, I’m watching this and wishing I had the table space to build it myself (oh and the time!).
are you guys trying to compete with Perturabo on this building scheme?
anyone near a Wilko they had a similar wallpaper a mouth or two when I was in.
An idea for the gaps between tables (where the lights are) would be to have your photoshop wizards print off some bottomless chasms. That would really sell the idea of “impassable terrain.”
I think if you used the Perspective tool to angle pictures of industrial walls/textures, you could create the illusion of a top-down view into a bottomless pit. A fade-to-black in the middle of the will make it seem like you are looking deep into the hive.
Yeah, I was thinking yawning chasms down into the depths of the hive city.
Very nice boys, one day I’d like to come over when I have the money lol and actually enjoy watching you build the boards before I come and then play on what yous turn out.
Never been disappointed with anything you’ve gotten your hands on to do.
Your team always puts in 110% and make a Dam Good Job every time.
Love to see this when it’s finished.
The player areas will be the open sewer of 40K.
Cut-throat mathhammer is the open sewer of 40K. 😉 😛 😉
Great stuff. Love the sheer size of these big build projects you guys can do. There is so much that you are able to teach us about how to get a great looking table in a sensible amount of time. I’ve got a roll or two of the textured wallpapers and will definitely be wrapping some baseboards for a new look on my table. Thanks.
