The Continent Layout

[ View ]

Abstract : |
Here is the original 4” cedar sphere in front of the CAD model on the monitor.
If you look to the left of the sphere, you’ll see some little white and red bits. These are the “continents” that were made.
“Longitude” and “latitude” lines have been added to both the CAD model (look closely at the monitor. They are the red and black bands that circle the globe) and the wooden sphere to help position the continents correctly. Actually, the lines are added in a grid-like pattern as it is easier and works equally well in positioning the land masses.

Abstract : |
Shown here is a rendering from the CAD software (SolidWorks). The CAD model is handy as it makes it possible to “wrap” the map around a sphere and have the continents accurately expand/shrink to their correct sizes and locations.
The CAD model is also required as it forms the data that the stereolithography (SLA) machines need to build the land masses.
Building the continents in this fashion allows for curved pieces that bond perfectly to the sphere.

Abstract : |
Picture showing the two sides of the shed, i've added some gravel to the base of the first one, which may look a little odd at the mo but will look okay (i hope) painted, the second part has been partly plastered.

Abstract : |
i tried out the fieldstone arch, mainly because the span seemed more correct than the tomb mould arch. After plastering it will look allright, incidently the underside of the arch looks similar to those of the film where the arch soffits are tiled. i have to say i think i prefer the tomb arch, but the misture of arches will be imporant to get the more ad hoc mos eisley look.

Showing how versatile the modular format can be, here i've broke the shed into two half buildings to create a street scape. Now where are those pesky droids hiding?

another arrangement of the tiles showing how the 3 tile wide "street" accommodates the larger 3x3 bases, leading to the question have wizards got the scale of that bantha right?

Abstract : |
In order to get the tatooine rendered adobe look, i've plastered the walls to give it a rough and ready "smooth" look.

My attempt at a small strorage room from Mos Eisley, for use with the star wars minis game. I've used the chipped stone for the walls, tomb mold arch, windows doors pipes etc from the star ship mold, and all the floor tiles from the star ship mold.
