I'm planning on making a Dark Elf gaming table over the summer and I was just looking for some suggestions. I havn't been able to find any good web sites or anything. If anyone knows how to make that watch tower from the army book it would be great if they could give me the directions as well as any other ideas.

I tried making one out of card board to house my RBT. Within a couple of days it had fallen apart. What I'm thinking of doing is buying a tower from GW and making a small hut thing out of match sticks.

Unfortunately I don't have the army book so I don't know what tower you are talking about. :oops:

I'm going to try making a 6 sided tower for my Dark Elves using thin balsa wood. I was able to pick up quite a bit of balsa wood cheap from Franks, they are clearancing out there craft supplies, 75% off.

The problem with that is that you don't get the effect of it being made of bricks or stones

Use a textured paint to give it the appearance of stone, and the problem is taken care of.

hey,

first, build a base out of wood or something, and than cover it with clay.

How about putting one of the watch towers to the north in there? You can have the borders of the Chaos Wastes on the table.

Another way to make the wood look like stone is elmers glue mixed with sand

I use that alot on styrofoam rock I do bc I dont have a hot knife to cut it clean
