About the Project

Recently bought Dead Man's Hand Redux and I need town for shootouts. I had some MDF buildings already, but bought a few more so that I can (hopefully) fill a 6x4 table (although I don't need that size).

Assembled everything I have so far and slapped paint on the roof of most buildings. Still got a pile of miniatures to paint.

Battlemat is 6×4, but that’s not full width of table (40 inches, I have an extension piece I tag on one side) and from one end of town to the other is about 40 inches.

I am tempted to buy a few more MDF buildings to add some variety.

First game of Dead Man’s Hand Redux should be tomorrow night.

Just a test layout for the game tomorrow. I think the street is too wide at present.Just a test layout for the game tomorrow. I think the street is too wide at present.

Although there are three buildings in the DMH starter set they are all the same and I want variety on the table, so bought some MDF by TT Combat to add to the ones I had lying around from a western RPG I ran a few years ago.

However… the Pitchstone Municipal set that I bought had no floor on the ground level and I didn’t want to see battlemat when the roof comes off.

I bought some A3 mdf sheets for a different project and decided to cut some sheets down to use as base and spray painted it…

But it was too boring to look at… so I scratched some planks into the surface.

That left the outside border which was too dark for a desert theme, so I used some Diorama FX Desert Sand by Vallejo to add some texture.

This is the result… which is still a work in progress… it’s a prototype.

The first attempt - giving the Trading Post a floor and sandy exterior.The first attempt - giving the Trading Post a floor and sandy exterior.
