15mm Caverns


 Okay, so you can't afford a lot of nice resin terrain, have a limited space for storage and playing...what are you going to do to get those little men onto the playing field?  Here is the first set of modular terrain I am making for gaming with my older brother this winter.  It is a set of caverns that will serve double purpose for games of FUBAR and Songs of Blades and Heroes to start with.  Here is the first tile:

The tiles are 12 x 12 and are completely modular.  They can be rotated in any direction and moved around to create different lay-outs.  I started with four tiles, total cost per tile was about $3-4 US and took about an hour to make, not including waiting for things to dry.  I spent about four hours over the course of a weekend to get them to this point:

 I am working on some doors for Song, and probably some little holes for critters to crawl out of for FUBAR.  Here is a shot with a 15mm mini from Splintered Light for scale. Thanks for looking!

  1. Well done! Excellent job matching up the walls between tiles. Is that bark?

  2. Saw this posted on tmp. Very clever design that looks great and hey, we can all use reasonable budget hobby ideas! That cork tile is dirt cheap and so, so easy to work with.

  3. @ PMMDJ: It is cork tile. I will try to post a step-by-step this week, if you want to give this a try. It was really easy.
