Tonight's dice club with the kids was the first time in a long while I felt energized afterward. I think we found "our game" - inspired by Untitled Goose Game, completely normal animals come together for relatively nonthreatening heists.
Here's how I made a two-piece desert highway for a post-apocalyptic car chase game inspired by Thunder Road and JUNK'D.
I'm working on a car chase/combat board game descended from the old Thunder Road game and inspired by JUNK'D. This is where it stands after one actual playtest with coworkers and a lot of solo runs.

I tried a little ink wash right after I primed it just to see, and the wash mostly worked. The issue was that the wash would cover … Continue reading Hero Forge and Shapeways, Part III
