I created the little tin circles using a hand sheet metal hole punch and then tapping them flat with a hammer. The basing material I settled on was PVC foamboard it is much stronger than the regular paper foamboard but extremely tough to cut. After that I then did numerous test tiles using different basing materials and glues but didn’t uncover anything to new, although I did use up a bucket load of time. I played around in sketchup with the design until I came up with the below. I also wanted to do slightly raised footpath/sidewalks to give a little dimensionality to the tiles. Next up was working out how to join the tiles together along each edge and designing some way of allowing magnets to stick to the tiles. I created all these at full size so that later if I want to build a full size capital city I can use those elements in the build. Each tile was also designed such that the road exits on each side are in the middle, the only tiles that don’t respect this rule are the highway pieces but I can live with those being special.Īs part of the above tile scaling and creation process, I created several custom tiles parking lot, street parking and dual lane highway tiles. This is just slightly smaller than Z-Scale however they look good on the table. As those games can involve a lot of smashing and building destruction I worked on customizing a fair number of elements and incorporating magnets and metal into the pieces.įirst up I had to work out the scaling to use to get the Capital City down to Z-scale, by a happy coincidence this was fairly easy, basically each 7inch tile was scaled down to 2 inches square and then I recombined 9 of these together to form a new 6inch square. ![]() ![]() To go with the half sized Lost Reich mecha I’ve been building, I have slowly been working on a small Fat Dragon Capital City build.I plan on using this build for Lost Reich and Destroy all monsters or Mighty Monsters games. ![]()
