Cette touche de JdR c'est vraiment la cerise sur le gateau.

The 2nd one was more casual with a scenario that invited to interact with the locals and I have to say all gamers played their part and made it very enjoyable to master.

The things is, it's dirt cheap and pretty easy to model and paint so if you keep the low-tech retro sci-fi standards in mind, it's quite good.

That's awesome man :)<br /><br />Regarding the RT terrain, I've often thought those cardboard packaging containers have a very good gaming potential, but the outside texture looks a little too much like a pizza box IMO. I've collected quite a few of them myself, but with the plan to make a cast from the inside of them instead. The interior texture looks a lot better I reckon. I'm currently experimenting with resin to make them. I'll let you know if/when I can eventually make it work :)<br /><br />I'm really happy for you that you've managed to find people to play with locally. It's hard enough to find like minded individual's to game with, let alone like minded Oldhammerer's!<br /><br />Cheers JB :)Mr Papafakishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449586265828153638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2221418482531324115.post-63107705686826559922015-10-04T14:59:03.662+02:002015-10-04T14:59:03.662+02:00Wow what a setup!
