Cool...I've been kicking around the idea of getting some of that stuff, just haven't followed through with it yet.
From what I read, super-sculpy is quite versatile and easy to work with...
Thanks for the tip!
Brian

It's super easy to work with - bakes at a low temperature, hardens to plastic when baked, can be sanded, carved, takes paint well - it's just great stuff in general.

Thanks!
And last question...I think...did you glue the walls to bases? Or do they stand alone?
thanks again!
Brian

I glued small "feet" to the walls in the form of rocks and debris that would help the wall stand up without actually basing it. I'll take pictures later to clarify what I mean.

Shawn,
What do you do with these tables after you take the pic? are the dismantled, or do you keep these tables and play on them later?

The tables are all modular and break down for future play or photos! I've even used 'em in demo games at various conventions.

Superb work Shawn  . I have some questions about Super Sculpey. Do you bake the Super Sculpey in the same oven as you bake your food or in a different one ? Are there any toxic components in it or is it just clay ? I ask that because I found that I was allergic to green stuff (which is different from Super Sculpey) so now I'm a bit suspicious about sculpting stuffs.

Thanks!
There's no safety labels on SuperSculpy, but that doesn't mean much in the face of allergies . . . I've baked it in the same oven I cook in for years and have never had any problems.
They do make a small electric oven you can bake your sculpy in - it's not very expensive. Less than $50 if I remember correctly. A handy guy could probably whip one up with a couple of light bulbs and some reflective material, too.
