well… ok i guess ill give it a shot hopefully i word this right, Im looking to start a simpleish street fighting dio or more vignette as soon as my figures arrive and didnt want to spend all my money on a blown up building, could you guys give me a suggestion on the cheapest way to build a decent blown up building? any help is greatly appreciated
what size are you looking for? where in the world is this building. is it modern, or ancient? depending on alot of what your doing, i found using styrene to build to be the cheapest. but i know your young and may not have alot of knowledge (hence your asking…i know im a brain sometimes [;)]). if your using 1:35 scale figures…1/4 thk wood can be used as well. perhpas other’s will have more ideas for you!
Yes, im thirteen been doing figure for about 3 years now, yes i will be doing 1/35 scale and in europe in WW2
to make simple brick walls, make a mould out of lego blocks, and pour in plaster of Paris. (I mix about 30% cornflour with the plaster, which makes it easier to scribe when it is dry).
Take a look at the following. It contains ideas that will get you off the ground and if nothing else can be tucked away for future use. The technique will save you more money for those figures. [;)]
Basic Construction of a wall - “Hunter or Hunted…”
The gent that presented this does very good figures, armor, vignette and dioramas.

FF,
we’re actually having this conversation … sort-of … in my mogadishu dio thread, as I’m also in the process of scratching a building.
Check your PM’s!
Thanks, Jim
