I learned some cool modelling techniques at the ZOMBIE TOWN MASSACRE III (23 October 2004) game:
---
1. TAR ROOFS for EPIC Buildings: Tissue with watered-down wood glue makes an awesome roof topper.
---
2. SPRITZING UP AT-1 Hard-Foam Buildings: Plasticard brick walls and tile look good in ANY scale.
---
3. PORTABLE CITYSCAPE Base: Vinyl AKA Nagahyde makes an awesome protable city base... much more portable than my current hardboard set-up.
---
4. CHEAP "EASY-TO-DO" RUBBLE (That Rolls!): Fleckstone is awesome for making rubble. It also clings to the Nagahyde surface so that the vinyl can still be rolled. City rubble and a rollable portable surface! Awesome!
---
5. CITY BLOCKS ON THE CHEAP: Taping off squares on the vinyl roll and then spraypainting them gray is enough to give the suggestion of city blocks. Spraying fleckstone over the "block" areas makes the city look unkept with rubble.
---
6. I'M MOTIVATED & INSPIRED: I want to try out some of these techniques with an Epic city board. I also want to try out some of the techniques with plasticard and glue-tissue with the hard-foam buildings that came with Adeptus Titanicus.

Shalom,

Sounds like some interesting ideas.
So when will the pictures be posted?

Vince usually has the report up within two weeks of the game. There are already reports up for ZOMBIE TOWN MASSACRE I and II. I have the links in my personal thread.

If you try the vinyl terrain thing, pics are a requirement! I am very interested in how that would turn out, as it would fit my limited storage space requirement nicely. 
my 2cents,

I have a set of the AT foam buildings and look forward to seeing how I can spritz them up!

Oh, I have been looking at his site.
I ment the pictures of the great terrain you were going to make with these great ideas.

I'm working on photos...
Starting this week, my night job will be over and I'll have more time to learn how to work my camera (in-between getting things happening at school).
Shabbat Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

I really like the tar roofing idea with tissue Maksim.. Another thing to try out when I have the time!

I've seen a number of neat ways of doing roofs for buildings lately. I will have to pop over to the Specialist Games Epic forums and import some links here!
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.
