By lifting my smaller terrain pieces up on these platforms, I've
enhanced
their visual appeal while creating a whole new level of claustrophobic
pathways beneath. It's finally starting to feel like a real hive
world now...
Here's some support blocks I made by combining Duplo castle pieces with
some empty plotter printer cartridges. They make nice tower bases
like this...
Or you can flip them upside down and use them like this...
Or even stack them on top of each other like this to form taller tower
pieces!
This is a view of the back of the blocks, showing off the nice detail
of the printer cartridges. I added the rivet plates, and other
details to the side. The open part of the Duplo pieces is covered
with a sheet of plastic that I embossed rivets into with a 1/16" hole
punch.
