Earlier this year, I decided to join a terrain building challenge, the Rogue Sculpts Craft-Off Competition. The gist of it is, each month, all participants are paired up, and each pair is given a random theme. At the end of the month, a panel of judges reviews the work from each pair, and the winner gets to advance to the next round. Rince and repeat, until there is only one, Highlander style.
This month, the theme I got was “Ruined temple”. I did a sketch of a forest temple for Endless: Fantasy Tactics a while ago, and it was the perfect time to work on that project. Unfortunately, I could only start late in the month, so I had to reduce the scale of my piece. I ended up doing an 8 by 8 squares board, the quarter of a full EFT board. When I get more time, I can build the other parts, especially as the rest of it is easier and simpler.
By the way, this was the second month of the challenge, but as I already said, time as been rough in the past months, so I’ll post about it later.
I won’t go into details about the construction, but I have some work in progress pictures of the board, and if you have any questions, just post them in the comments.
Finally, here are the pictures of the board, all done! Judging will be completed in a couple of days, and I’ll then know if I get back some time to paint minis instead of working on terrain.
I want to give a big shout out to my opposing partner this round, Damion Sailor, who built an amazing fantasy Egyptian inspired set of terrain, including a 28″ pyramid! You need to check it out here.
