LVT 28mm Damage Marker
So I did a few markers for the Pacific game. Four of them... for the land/beach side of our game.
The markers will help us to playthrough the game and continue to re-use the fully made LVT1 we have whilst marking how the game progresses.
As usual the LVT1's are 3d prints but are fixed to a base and some rubble added. The green stuff is used to create small wheels and the torsos for casualty figures.
I tried to make the LVT's look burnt out. This means we will have markers for both the sea mat and land mats.
From pictures the actual numbers on LVT's were quite roughly hand painted (not stencilled).
With one marker "just hit"...to add a bit of movement to the board..
The usual explosion effect - wire or cocktail sticks covered with stuffing., sprayed and painted. Two LVT 1 sections were angled and printed. Rifles, helmets etc. were added to the blast.
This was a bigger 3d LVT section sliced at an angle. Then added to a foam base. With scattered rifles, ammo cases, pouches etc. Green stuff used as burst track, wheels etc.
So the 3d prints are mounted on plasticard or a blue foam base
(high density foam cut to the shape using hot wire cutter).
Fantastic GW! I expect that there will be a fair few of these littering the shoreline during the game.
ReplyDelete??Hi John.. yeap I think it will look good... but due to table size constraints we haven't been able to pull it all out on on mass yet...I cannot wait.
DeleteThe attention to detail and effort you put into all your terrain pieces is inspirational - great work!
ReplyDeleteCheers rross... thanks - there's a lot of nice looking tables out there... so lets all get a little more creative! I must admit it feels great when you play on a good looking table it adds to the enjoyment of the game.... these pieces help tell the story of your games progress. Makes it more memorable as well.
