Tutorial | How to Make Raised Platforms for Mordheim or Warcry

For about the past month I've been toiling away at creating some raised platforms for wargaming. This is terrain suitable for Age of Sigmar, Warcry, Mordheim, Frostgrave, you name it. I wanted to add some verticality to my games while holding onto some modularity so that my game boards don't all look the same. I've included some WIP pictures in previous posts, but I have now fully built, painted, and photographed my platforms. I have to say that I'm really happy with how they turned out, and now I'll show you how I made them, plus some glamor shots at the end.

WIP | Elevated Terrain Tiles and Battle Systems Terrain

This last month has been rather quiet here on the Space Dinosaur front. Ordinarily, I prefer to share my hobby stuff here once it's completely done. That works for smaller projects, but right now I'm working on some bigger things that are eating up some time. So, in the spirt of keeping my blog active, here's a sneak peek of some of the upcoming posts.

Review | Dungeons and Lasers III Stretch Goals

Welcome to another review here on the Space Dinosaur, where I'll take a deep dive into a product, game, or technique and offer my opinions and recommendations. Today's post will look at the most recent of Archon Studios' kickstarters to ship, Dungeons and Lasers III.

Welcome to Space Din-O-pinions where I ramble about my incoherent thoughts in the wargame hobby. Today we leave the realm of units into the land of terrain with a very simple model: a bridge. And, as a bonus, I talk about why models like this are such a joy to have in the hobby.
