I'm going to take a crack at this using foam board. If any Tankers have built one I'm interested. I've heard it mentioned but haven't seen one here. Your help is greatly appreciated.

I seem to recall someone who made a HUGE Silent Castle / Cobra Temple set...but I have no idea what he made it from....the thing was massive tough, like the size of a full grown adult.

I've started making parts of the Silent Castle for a re-enactment of Silent Interlude, some pics attached of various WIP bits and pieces that people should hopefully recognise!
Most are nearly finished now (finally painted) but are unfortunately now in storage as we're looking to move house, and I forgot to take photos before I put them away :( Comments: papier mache is good (but messy) for complex shapes (like the cobra that SE lands on), but building crenelations out of cardboard is a real PITA (getting nice edges), and flat parts can bow when you glue-wash (so that the paint will not soak straight in). Actually I think I'll need to rebuild the battlement set as the one I made, which I'd hoped to use for both the SE fight with the 3 Cobra Troopers and Destro running up with more Troopers, is probably too small for the first bit. Serves me right for trying to build something reasonably small and easy to store. You live and you learn! |

Thanks a lot guys! lardman nice interiors! I used the search here and found Steel's, hope mine comes out that good. I hope to make mine so it can come apart for storage. I got the base of it toghther after I posted. Its gonna take a lot of foamboard but that stuff is pretty cheap compared to wood and its easier to work with. Mine should be similar to Steel's when I'm done.
