Hello chaps! Been a while since I've been here, but the games club I run with my students is back to playing GruntZ, and I am back to making GruntZ Terrain!
The current project is a modular terrain set with eight tiles, each being 12inches square. Since we are playing very small games with no vehicles, a two foot square table actually works well for us and we can fit in a good bloody death match over lunch time. The boards are made from half inch MDF, all that remains of my original games table (it was just a sheet of MDF on trestles - Dad cut it into squares for me when I moved out of home). So far four are completed. The four boring ones. Three of them have roads and one has a bit of concrete jiggery-pockery on it, but they are otherwise dirt. The other four are the all concrete interesting ones. They are designed to look like space port apron.
Also working on some more buildings to go with the boards - found some nice plastic cups with a good alien look which I will be using to make some alien buildings. Also got some really cheap and nasty toy cars which I have been merrily SF-ing up, and building some space craft to be landed on the landing pads.
The boards will be featured as a project on my blog. I'll get some pics of the other stuff online sometime soon, but I am not at home right now.
