Wargaming Terrain Intro



I've decided to start a series of blogs about creating wargaming terrain. For those of us who love the hobby and with the current economic depression this is easily one of the best times to do it. If you are laidoff you want to have fun but don't have the money to spend on your hobby. If you're employed it is a good time to strike some great deals on products you want. Also, it really helps turn the economy around the more we pass our dollars back and forth.

So to start if you do have the money I strongly recommend tabletop terrain products from the following companies:
  • Hirst Arts - Hirst sells rubber molds that allow you to plaster cast blocks to build your own plaster terrain. Cast, Assemble, Paint and Play.
  • Armorcast - Resin cast model terrain. Paint it and play with it.
  • DwarvenForge - Modular terrain pieces that come pre-painted. Arrange on your table and play.
  • Bluetablepainting - Made to order terrain. Arrange and play.
  • Miniatures Unlimited - Ebay or Made to order terrain. Put it down and play.
  • Miniature Building Authority - Resin cast buildings that are pre-painted. Put it down and play.
Making the table look interesting and seeing your models in the proper setting is half the fun!
