Jungle Bases, Second Batch WIP
After almost two months of hiatus, due to garden projects and other real life entanglements, the last couple of days I have been making some progress on my second batch of jungle bases for multiple purposes. As soon as the paint has dried, I shall drybrush the bases, and they will be ready for the table (and I shall then clean up the dining table and get some gaming going - I am suffering severe withdrawal symptoms at the moment).

It's a Jungle Out There!
We pretty much got all the firewood stacked this afternoon, so I felt that I could justify spending time on getting a jump start on the next batch of jungle bases.
Tomorrow, I am going to make some more of the 'fillers' for the DVD holes, as I have used all those I previously covered, and I still have a bunch of palm trees to use, before I get some other types of plastic trees to add to my expanding jungle...

Completed: 8 Jungle Terrain Bases
I finished the last couple of the jungle bases just the other day, but did not get around to snap a few photos until this evening.
I think they will do great for various games set in a tropical jungle environment - from sub-saharan Africa over India and Indo-China/'nam to the Amazonas, and many worlds in a galaxy far, far away, as well as terraformed Venus, and Catachan and other Death Worlds, and Deadzones.
Below you can see the recently printed giant tree trunk placed among the jungle bases, and although in real life, rain forests probably do not have that many palm trees, I think the illusion is going to be great!
Couple more of the tree trunks printed, based, and painted, and I shall have to make some more jungle bases - which is fine, as I want to end up being able to cover at least 50% of a 6'x3' table with vegetation.
Well... that is the plan, for now, but as always, I may get sidetracked by the next shiny object crossing my path...

Rumble in the Jungle
Having a 3D-printer working in the background, printing stuff for gaming, has inspired me to start making some jungle bases on mini CDs - those will be used both for Star Wars Legion, Congo, various Pulp games, Victorian Adventures, and my Paleo Diet in Africa project, as well as anything else, I can place in a tropical environment.
The next couple of days I probably shall not have much time to spend on this project (I start my 5-nights work period tonight), but the next phase is slapping some filler around the plastic plants to hide ugly joints and bases/webbing. I shall focus on getting three of these ready before my next game.
