Challenge accepted!!!
Though most of my stuff will stay in the Leeds area for the branch, but I'll let you see some of it...
I made a ruined building, with 2 storeys, though the top is mega bashed in and there's a hole in the flooring as though it had been hit by a catapult rock or something...

Anyone know of decent materials to build out of???
I know that foamboard is great, like thick card but does not crumple as easily... Also, if you can get hold of some polystyrene foam bloacks (solid not squishy), then do so, they are great for making stuff...

Say do you guys post linked battle reports with pics?
With styrofoam paint it with latex house paint, dust with concrete or mortar mix in the desired color and seal. Instant styro-crete.
Use large bark chips hot glued together and paint as rock formations.

"We play so many games we cant be arsed writting them all up "
Tough problem I suppose. Like to have that one myself.
Do you mind if they get posted in the 40k section though?

Go and try looking in a hobby shop (not a model shop necessarily, but a generic one)... They sometimes stock the stuff in them...
Foamboard is about £3.50 per sheet (decent size, probably 100 cm x 50 cm)
The blocks of styrene are more expensive, but they should only really be used in small amounts anyway...

We are thinking about doing some ful on battle reports to flesh out the site. Especially highlighting OGC additions. I'll flag them for you as soon as they start to appear but for now everyone seems to be under a crushing workload.

Scenery piece number 2 completed... Mwahahahahaha
I've been building templates for making my buildings so that I can churn some out really quickly and mix and match pieces to add variety... Big time saver there...

It's either my head, a water bottle or one of my pink gay space marines. He promised me he'd edit me out of the pics he took...
