Moved into interim housing of a hotel before a future full fledged rental for my gf and myself. I am beat but the mini work still progresses for display bases with plasticard. I need to get my hands on some 100 grit sandpaper for woodgrain on the right hand base. The left hand is already capped at the edges so it’ll be better to scribe the planks. That isn’t exactly fun/easy but it’ll look a lot better once I’m done.

I might want to think about the minis I’ll place on them as I have a bit of leeway with the development. The capped one will likely be some sort of horror theme that I can toss some broken fencing and toppled gravestones. It could be neat as a rundown steampunk setting. Developing the visual element of vertical space will be important with this one.

The uncapped base on the right has a look of rough hewn planking that would work for a Wild West figure. I’ve looked at some of Black Scorpion’s collection and there is much to think about painting. Maybe on the theme of death dealing it could become an undertaker’s shopfront or just a saloon door for a gunfighter. I’ll see what comes of it while I have the new space in transit.

It might be an idea to build on the “traveling base building kit”. Then again I have three different kits that I draw from in order to do so and its not necessarily that easily transported. I’ll work on paring it down for others to play about with for their own purposes.

@limburger I was thrilled to see the info on it as well. I was going to just refer to the first game with sundancer but it was too good to pass up. I can only think back to Dungeon Keeper as well with the build/defend play.
