Hey guys this is going to be an ongoing thread about my Town-Building Adventure for my Homebrew world in Dungeons and Dragons. The Players Characters have liberated an island full of deadly perils and now are building a town.
I will be trying to Assemble in its entirety the town itself using papercraft from my purchases at WorldWorksGames, LordZseZse Works, Finger and Toe models, Dave Graffim, and of course Tom's amazing work as well.
Its a huge undertaking, and I am complete noob so I expect mistakes will be everywhere. I posted in General as I do have mixed sets and I hope to do some kit bashing here and there to give the town a more over unified look.
This is the Map I will be trying to recreate though I did not create it that would be Jonathan at Fantastic Maps.
To comment Further on the map above there will be different districts, which I had planned to do by race but now seems rather racist and I wish not to do it that way, will probably be done by wealth or occupation with an overall feel to each said district.
Just to get some Technical Data out there for troubleshooting problems down the line.
I am using a PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II. I will be using 8.5" X 11" sized 110lb cardstock with a matte finish. The Glue I will be using a 1 Gallon Aleene's Original Tacky Glue, and using a cut tongue depressor. (which I found out works really well thanks Afet)
I do not have a wonderful life altering cutting machine so I will be using a Plastic healing cutting board and a set of X-Acto knives to do that.
Sets I have (listed for texture, building and kitbash support)

Once I have some of the buildings built I will populate the town npc by using some paper minis allowing for the Player characters to easily be found as they will have full 3d plastic metal or other miniatures.
I was doing rough Calculations and its rough 32 by 18 feet so it will be done in much smaller pieces labeled on the bottom of foam board pieces. I am going to try to keep most of it fold flat for spacial reasons and just attach baggies for each building onto the foam board itself, but if I do it right players will be able to go to a section I assemble it rather quickly and boom ready to go. The other thing that will be a challenge will be trying to do interiors for each building, and making buildings that are not fold flat well fold flat.
In the worst Case scenario I just print a 2D interior to match the dimensions of each building.
Please understand I'm not completely crazy each section if you look at the map( it's each group cut off by streets into a non secular polygon) is gonna be it's own labeled board with fold flat buildings in their own bags so running to a district is a matter of assembly within a few minutes. The goal is that this town will be more than one campaign and groups home location. Also I have at least two pairs of helping hands between my wife and one my amazing players.
Also I hope I'm not offending anybody but building multiple companies products side by side. Interestingly enough I haven't actually found any comparison pieces between the different companies side by side. So if nothing else it should show the strengths and weakness of all products and more hopefully help with minor adjustments or tweaks to help each one become the best it can be.
