    some personal advice though. Greeble with small details. If you need to put a big piece of something make it a useful big piece of something like a door, a ladder, a window. Don't just stick on a large oddly shaped piece because it will get more attention than you want it to mostly in the form of people asking "so what is this bit meant to be."

    A novice of 6 years? OK, Luke Towan's stuff is incredible but Bill, your stuff is incredible too! I think you have VERY different agendas and you both excel at what you do. I think you've inspire many gamers to build their own worlds [cost adjusted for everyone] and you'll have brought out lots of creativity where many were hesitant before. Inspiration is Magic IRL.

    Cheers for the mention mate, adding bits and greebles to make up for a paint job is certainly something I picked up from the inq28 community where they typically paint with a very muted, grimy pallet but their models are detail rich so it works really well. Now when I build I think "would I rather be spending most of my time painting or building?" and knowing I can do either makes me more excited to start.

    Quite the impressive piece of terrain and great for the table, definitely looks like it builds on a lot you've done before. I was *not* expecting the dish to be able to rotate like that, which is honestly impressive, but I think the big takeaway for me was the simplistic but versatile nature of those I beams. Definitely a handy piece to be able to whip up for builds. Also, love the intro~

  • @nelsonolivierjr3994

    I really like the piece, has a great look to it. I don't care for the grate on the rooftops. I've never seen that mostly cause the grates would rust much faster since the water can't drain too well but grates make great walkways since the water can drip off without too much of a hitch. Overall a great piece to build.

The other thing I wanted to say, is that black bit that you said went on the end of roll of drafting paper, if you stop by your Walgreens pharmacies in the US, their photo departments use those for their rolls of photo paper as well! I work at one and have a rather large box of them! If you ask them for it, they may look at you a bit weird, but most should be willing to part with them (the roll ends are usually thrown away anyways)
