The cardboard I decided was not the best base and I knew the Range local to me had some foam board in so off I went.
I returned the with my large sheet of foam board. I set out cutting what I needed and sticking the houses down.
As you can see I also cut out some roads Also on the hamlet piece you'll see a circle of cardboard. This will be a pond, I needed the extra bit of cardboard to give me a bit of height when applying the filler. This will allow me to get some depth to the pond when I add the epoxy water effect.
The roads I have added filler to and will sand them down when they are dry.
After all this I had some foam board left over. I decided to make up some ruins to add to my 15mm battle field. I made up some templates and cut out the foam board I wanted a couple of ruins where a tank could park inside (ish) . Once I cut out the building sides and base I stuck them all together. Then covered the lot in filler.
Once the filter had dried I sanded it down and I felt the ruins needed something else. I had plenty of small bits of foam board left so I thought why not bits of rubble. I used some matches for wooden beams
Also after some advice from the Terrainiacs Facebook group I added some sand to the rubble piles.
I'll keep you guys updated have a great day!
