Modular Jungle Temple - WIP

[GlennM]

Been ticking away at a new terrain project, building a modular temple based off of Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Since I hate typing the same thing, text is at my blog, and here are a couple pics.

Really happy with how this is turning out, hopefully I'll get it done within a few days to a week.

Comments and criticism are always appreciated.

Love it! Very atmospheric already

Nice start, looking forward to the final product.

Any idea what your going to do for the inevitable jungle vines hanging about and clinging to the walls?

[Mister Shine]

Really damn cool. Have you considered making a jungle waterfall? Jungle ruins always smack with waterfalls. Bonus for treasure objectives slotting in nicely behind it

[GlennM]

The big trees and vines will be mostly made from pipecleaners that will be coated with thick plaster (or something to that effect), I though of using Sculpey, but getting the vines to wrap would be impossible.

You might also want to take a look at using both real roots and a product called Poly Fiber with the pipecleaners to enhance the effect. They can greatly ease your work load.

Terrainthralls includes them in a few of their tutorials.

I'll take a look at those, thanks. I don't intend to use real roots though, I tend to find they don't match well, you have this surreal environment with surreal figures, when you through some reality into it it breaks the vibe and shows you how fake everything else looks.

There will be a pool at some point as well, but I'm not sure I can handle a waterfall as much as I'd love to, my ability with water has always been crap. Though I did design a really cool layout for one, I doubt I'll try to put it in.

Looks really cool! I can't wait to see them finished

[GlennM]

Actually, anyone know where I can get some Small Buddhas? Not the fat kind, but the Tibetan styled ones, looking for 1-2" (need 2) and maybe a 4". I've been cruising online, but having a hard time finding exactly what I want. I'll not be able to finish till I find them. Another similarly styled seated figure would also work. I need them for the section ends and a focus piece.

GW Slaan Mage-Priests as Buddhas?
