Built a Dystopian Wars Ocean Gaming Table

[MajorMcNicol]

I've been getting more and more into Dystopian Wars, and this weekend I built a naval wargaming table. I thought I'd post about it here - anyone else doing water/water-effect tables?

I did it as two 2' x 4' sections and finished it this weekend in less than a day.

Construction video and pictures here:

I used the technique shown by RubbishInRubbishOut on youtube.

All in all, I think it turned out really nicely! I look forward to the boards being 100% cured so I can move them around, put them side by side, try them out, etc.!

The glaze coat really ended up being a wonderful finishing touch. The most important part of the project, however, was the second "highlight" of pale blue waves, which just brought the entire project together.

Sorry to double post - just wanted to update the link above to reflect the permanent link:

This forum post brings dozens of hits to my blog everyday, somehow! So I don't want to disappoint anyone in case they can't find the video

Can you crosspost this and a couple of pics of the finished board in the General Painting and Terrain subforum. People are always asking about doing water tables.

Looks great!

Ok! I will.
