| Ziterdes comes to my mind first... probably one of the most famous ones. _________________ | |

| Good God! They have great terrain Cianty but the prices!
The prices are in Euros which is even worse with the dollar in a bit of a slump. | |

| I agree 100%. I bought a couple kegs and a cart from them at the last tabletop-convention I saw them. Those were priced fair but the buildings are incredibly expensive. There's also this shop but it's nothing special really. Think I rather build my own buildings from scratch... | |

| Yes, RD's stuff is decent and the prices are better.
I like making stuff but between family and work not enough time. | |

| You might check out CMon [ www.coolminiornot.com ]. They do one-line auctions, as well as carrying a lot of hard to find minis, & quite frequently have terrain pieces. If you join their forum you might find one of the folks selling their terrain pieces who would do Mordheim specific pieces for you. Armorcast [ www.armorcast.com ] has a lot of terrain pieces some of which would work for Mordheim, &, again, if you join their forum [nice place, good people] you could ask for people who sell their handiwork; there's a High probability on this one. Gale Force [ www.gf9.com ] offer custom terrain work; they are however, very pricey. Good hunting, amigo! | |

| Manor House is great also but still very pricey.
Someone asked what I was looking for and I guess it would be ruined buildings like you see in the book.
I have checked out GF9 in fact I have one of three sets of ruined terrain the GF9 made out of resin and stopped making them after those 3 sets.
I am looking for more as at times we have 3 plus tables. | |

| Has any of you tried out the Pardulon site? do you know if they're reliable with their shipping? (a bunch in my club are about to order from them, just want to make sure it's a safe shipper.) | |

Print out the scans from Cianty in other thread and build those?
Or are you looking for prebuilt? _________________ | |

| ACTUALLY I DO make terrain pieces, specifically gaming terrain, on commission. The caveats are 1) I AM NOT CHEAP [well to be honest I AM cheap, but the terrain isn't ] although it IS somewhat less expensive than a LOT of what other folks charge, 2) I don't know how well the foam terrain will travel; I'm currently doing some pieces that are going off to El Paso, that should be a good test for mailing. If I haven't scared you off [& I'd like to know "Why NOT?"], PM me. I LOVE PMs [speaks volumns for the extent of my social life ]. If nothing else I'd get to see my Horrors, large & small, in our Revered Forum [deprecating & generally rude sounds from The Crowd] on a somewhat more regular basis. | |

| You should take pictures of your scenery, DeafNala. This will make it easier for people to decide whether they want to comission you with stuff. Personally I don't think that there is a way of creating good-looking terrain pieces and selling them for a reasonable price. I mean, a reasonable price would always be higher than what the buyers are willing to pay. Everyone who has ever built a bigger building with a decent level of detail will know what I am talking about. I'm currently finishing my barrow piece and if I were to sell that for a fair price considering the many hours I put into building and painting it, it would have to be something like 300 EUR (that's 470 USD/237 GBP) whereas on ebay it would go for something like 30-50 EUR. | |

| AMEN to that my perceptive friend, cianty. Basically I paint & model on commission to suppliment my income [disability payments isn't the road to riches] for little things like living indoors & eating [occasionally]. Also I do it because I LOVE working the Craft. I could probably make more picking peaches. I must be fairly good at it though because I have sold literally everything I have made with the exception of the "new" Pirate ships & my cherished Goblins. The ideal scenario would be to be provided with a work space/living area combo in exchange for endless terrain & painted minis. Ain't much of a Dream but it's mine & I like it ! Addendum: an example of the price thingy: The Morheim board I did for erstwile friend, Mac, was 4'X4' with 2 2'X4' extensions each about as densely packed as Tom's [LOVELY} board, but with slightly taller buildings, AND one of the extensions had swappable terrain pieces to make either a Steinhardt's Memorial Garden or a Cemetery of St Vollar With 17"X15"X30"(high, man) Catheral. It took 3 months of 12-16 hour days 7days a week & brought in $2,600 [in the background "It's the sounds of the men working on the chain-gang" ]

| You could maybe do a clip together terrain?
like draw out the shape son foamcard, maybe cut them out and then send it? this provides the basics, but also allows easier postage and the other person shoudl beable to build/clip them together.
example could be the card buildings you get with the box set. make something similiar and do the whole painting etc of each side of the wall. but don't build it, means you still show nice details, but it does not need barrels or such added. _________________ | |

| @ DeafNala...post some pics if you can. I would love to see the $2600 set you made.
@ Duce...Yea, i have the scans of both box set and Blood on the streets terrain. I used to make terrain but stopped.
I just purchased $300 worth of Mordheim terrain from that fine gent on ebay who was selling his awesome buildings. I lost two other buildings in the auction as the price went over $85 each. | |

| I've been trying to coax Mac to take some pics of the boards I did for him for months now. Since us Old Guys take pride in our nagging ability, I'll continue to try. The worst case scenario is I'll be posting some pics of the Freidachtshafen project through Tom after he completes his Grande Tour. | |

| I don't know if this company has been mentioned before but I just discovered PrecisionModelDesigns. They have some fitting buildings for WWII. They can be purchased through battlemart. Just thought I'd post this... | |
