That looks amazing mate. Good effort. Is that the 4ground bridge and cafe? |
JustinModelDads | 08 Jun 2014 9:56 a.m. PST |
No, it's a lasercut cut cardboard bridge from a chap in Germany :) The Cafe is resin and by the same chap. |

Well, he clearly knows what he's doing then! |

Awesome stuff! Love the water. |

Great job. How is the water made – some kind of plastic sheeting? |

Hi all – ironically, the water was the simplest thing to do. I can't claim credit for the idea as I pinched it from the guys over at The Bunker: thebunkergames.com The canal and river are satin cloth off-cuts over which is florist's polythene, a shiney thin plastic wrap – very affordable and eminently transportable. The satin and polythene give it a real sheen and if it gets a little rucked up in players enthusiasm so much the better: it looks like waves. The pond you can just about see is resin. |

Great idea. Always had a lot of trouble getting a realistic and practical water representation. |
