Dust Demo Table for WargamesCon 2012

[BDub]

Hey folks, I though I would post some progress shots of the North Africa/Tunisia themed table, currently under costruction for the Dust Warfare Demo at this years WargamesCon. I'll keep it updated as I progress, and maybe add some earlier shots as well.

If you want to see it in person, you'll have to come to Austin, Tx for WargamesCon 2012 this June 21st-24th.

Enjoy.

How long before we can see more progress shots of this table. It already looks amazing, I can't wait to see more.

Nice looking table so far. Are the buildings constructed of foam core?

[RealGenius]

Yes, the black ones are, with some insulation foam used for staircases on the side.

will it be done in time?!

Soon, Probably this weekend. Its just been so incremental it wouldn't have been very impressive to show it - it wouldn't look much different till the paint and stuff starts coming together.

Yes, kind of. Its a type of foam-core called gator board. Its much stronger and cuts nicer. Also it resists the moisture of paint and plaster and what not - unlike regular foam core.

It will definitely be playable. I am sure I will be adding little things long after WGC.

Here are some update photos. I have painted the terrain. The buildings still need doors and some weathering. The terrain could use another dry-brush pass, but I'm getting down to the wire. I was planning on having some movable bases of date-palm trees and adding some olive trees here and their. That may have to wait till after WGC unfortunately.

Enjoy.

Thanks. I still need to do some flock and foliage work, and I was planning on having some movable bases of palm trees by WGC, but that may have to wait.

Your Boston is showing!

I've been trying to convince some of my friends to buy into Dust. Are you going to be running demos during open gaming?

Yes, we will actually have two demo tables up and running the whole weekend. Mack Martin, the designer, will be in town to conduct some of the demos.

We will also have vendors, in case they get the bug and want to plunk down some scratch right then and there.

Lazuli Miniatures Studios will be there with a ton of models (I believe 4 or 5 fully painted armies), but we can't give out models to demo (sadly I don't know to to play myself yet!).

Hey, it was great meeting you @ WGC this year. You're a great painter. Hope you can make it next year.
