Terrain Time #2


 

Two weeks of posts in a row?!!? Let me explain... So as I said in my last post I had my birthday.  In honor of the occasion  I will be getting the Indianapolis division of Team Waynedale together.  Yes, 3 of us in the last 3 years made the 2 hour move south to the state capital.  As and added bonus the Oxford division also is also able to join.  We are doing things a bit differently this time around and meeting at my place on the south side instead of meeting up at Clint's place on the north side.  This event gave me the motivation to finish two pieces of terrain I'd been working on that have fallen to the way side in the past few months.

DIYFTW: Cost-effective carrying cases

Have you ever looked around at the hobby around you and thought, "I could definitely do more with less?"  Are you the kind of hobbyist that marches to the beat of your own drum, a drum that you in fact created?  Are the models and terrain on the board much more than game pieces to you, but rather some artistic endeavor you take pride in?  Well, this is a blog post for you!

DIYFTW (do it yourself for the win) is the part of the blog where I and other TW members display our canny crafting when it comes to conversions, terrain, or in today's post, carrying cases.  Team member Popculture Archeologist isn't really big on pop culture, but he's a damn fine archeologist.  He also has a penchant for putting MacGyver to shame in building random stuff.  It probably stems from embracing his inner Ork.  One of his most recent endeavors involves creating a carrying case well under $20.  I got the chance to check it out over the last wargaming weekend, and to say the least I'm impressed.  Check out what he did after the jump!
