Getting into Dust Tactics/Warfare. This game is great, nice minis and all, it just lacks a bit of 3D on the board. There are some that have made paper scenery like these :
...but folding paper and waiting for the glue to set doesn't agree with me. So, inspired by the second example, I decided to make them using my trusty styrofoam cutter.
First stage : make a cutting template using thick card.
Then a mitre cutter jig with a few pieces of scrap plywood. (Sorry for the 90° turn... I'll fix it eventually)
Assembling the pieces by gluing them on card and caulking the joints.
Once painted, they don't look too bad. Just a couple of hours' work...
