All,

does anyone have any good examples of Alien / Future terrain for Tomorrow's War ?

So far I have mostly seen desert / grasslands with a few future buildings.

Not a great fan of the gothic buildings etc.

Has anyone done a total terrain project for TW ?

Looking for inspiration,

cheers

Mark

Terragenesis (http://www.terragenesis.co.uk/) is a good site for inspiration. I've made some of the soda bottle "polyps", they were pretty easy and look good on an alien landscape.

I second Terragenesis, also check out the 15mm SciFi section on TMP for some ideas on scifi buildings.

I went to a Pet Store and used Aquarium Plants. Cut the plants into seperate stands, and you can get some pretty “alien” plants. Also check out some of the structures, too.

Gamecraft Miniatures makes officially licensed Tomorrow's War buildings. They're currently offering some great human habitats for a colonial world and some buildings designed specifically to represent the style of architecture favored by the aliens of the Marshborn Confederation.

Check 'em out at www.gamecraftminiatures.com

Nice terrain there Markie, and am looking forward to seeing your other projects you mentioned. The underground sounds pretty cool. Oh, and welcome.

First samples of my Colony Series of buildings (15 & 28) arrived today: http://twitpic.com/a0sozu/full

there are 7 building in the series, various shapes and function, inspiration from Mass Effect/Eden Prime/Zhus Hope etc... sci-fi without the grunge, this series is for a new colony pre-fab set of structures.

these are still WIPS, but you should get a rough idea. Doors and windows and some walls/ceilings will be done in acrylic (black/clear translucent)

If you're okay with the idea of cardboard terrain, WorldWorks does stuff that's straight out of Aliens in all but name, as is the fashion.
