Kierdale Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Made from material bought at the 100 yen store, and painted almost entirely with craft paints to keep it all cheap, I made this framed map for my son and I to use for campaigns (likely Skirmish for starters). 12 hexes in size we’ve got... desert, mountain ranges, snowy peaks, a volcano, jungle/forest (one with a wizard’s tower at the middle), grasslands, a lake and river, settlements of various sizes and an island. That should give us plenty of variety for battlefields. The hexes are cork. I then built up the mountain ranges with multiple passes of my hot glue gun, before adding sand over the land areas and putty over the sea. Painted it all, flocked the forests (and then painted the flock as it proved too light!) and gloss varnished the sea/river/lake. If I did it again (or when I do another) I would make the river wind and branch, and might add a bit of space between the hexes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
