Soviet Well by intelligentmistertoad
Inspired by some work seen in a recent Cult Of Games XLBS, intelligentmistertoad has been adding to their World War II Soviet tabletop and built a neat well. Everyone needs a good source of clean water to keep the fight going and this is a charming piece of terrain that helps tell a story.
Wild West Town by brick
brick has picked up a LOT of Wild West terrain for playing out their gunfights on the American frontier and it's great seeing a good splash of colour being added to these pieces. Let's hope that brick doesn't get too distracted!

Crashed Aircraft by guillotine

Halloween Moonstone Terrain by Deff
Everyone loves a bit of Moonstone and this terrain from Deff works really well to help sell this whimsical Fantasy world whilst also giving things a spooky twist. It works well with their newest range of miniature they have been showing off!

Trench Works by ewokkebab
Inspired by A War Transformed, ewokkebab has been working on a massive trench board that will play host to their games. It is looking suitably muddy at the moment and no doubt there are some fun morsels still to come. Make sure to follow the progress on this in the project above.
Alien Trees by necrothrall
Using the new TerrainCrate Sci-Fi options from the folks at Mantic games, necrothrall has been working on painting up some of these modular pieces to use with their Sci-Fi wargames. There are some great colours on display!

Great work on all of these. Makes me wish my gameroom/hobby space was up and running.
Why won’t Hutch move closer so I can steal his stuff?
Haha. One day, maybe.
That stonework is amazing Hutch, fond memories of your source of inspiration, possibly one of the harshest FF novels, made Deathtrap dungeon look like a cakewalk
Thank you. Looking forward to doing sone of the key locations like the sewers, gardens with animal shaped hedges, the skulls for the singing bridge, plus other bits to add character.
Loving the variety of stuff that’s popping up. Some excellent bits of inspiration. Loving the crashed plane, I have something similar on my to-do list, plus all the alien plants are excellent too. In fact there is so much good stuff out there I am spending more time reading other people projects than updating my own.
In the beginning I was super confident about my build. Now, after seeing all these amazing projects, not so much….lol.
Some lovely work on show, and Hutch’s is next level. It’s knocking on the door of being called art.
Thank you.
With TerrainFest now closed I’m really excited for the Weekender/XLBS to see what the team thinks of our shenanigans! 8)
