Well,my mate returned to finish the table,and then I thought I should hide the tops imperfections by giving it a coat of paint.Its hard to portray the actual size,until I put some terrain boards and figures on,but I can assure people its pretty impressive,if I do say so myself.
I opted fo plywood to cover the table top which should stop any warping etc.I also opted for dressed timber 3 by 2 for the legs with 4by2 for the actual main frame.Dressed timber is kinder than getting spelks all the time.I attempted to put the scenic backdrop that I had bought,along the wall,but I made a complete hash of it,so luckily I had to other sets,which I intend to put on tomorrow.
This time with wallpaper paste.The back drops were bought from ART PRINTERS, and I thoroughly recommend them if you like the idea of a scenic back drop.The lights dont convey the actual colour,but its actually a pale green,honest.But it will be covered by terrain boards.
It already looks great!

Mate - excellent work
ReplyDeleteThis project has been coming along really well, wont be long now? Dont worry about the height, a milk crate fixes that, I always worried about the width and getting speared in the belly or worse by pikes or bayonets whilst reaching into the middle of the table
ReplyDeleteMarvelous!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing some of the tabletop actions to come!
