I made a new video recording of the current state of the underhive. I need more levels! I won’t be satisfied until it reaches the ceiling 🙂
Sorry for the shaky camera!

Okay so here I went and posted a stock imperial sector being pretty pleased with myself until this came out 😀 mate this is pretty much how I’d imagine the underhive actually looks. The only thing I could think of to add to this is a toxic lake, ratskin village and the entry point from the upper levels so the spyrers can have some sport.
Oh yeah I just saw it! Thanks alot Boss! The toxic lake actually is there but it was too dark on the video. I think actually next project is an elevator system from above to the ground level. Great minds 😉
Ooo that does sound pretty awesome! Maybe build it as a series of shafts and I’d imagine the upper tier in the underhive would be heavily guarded. Good way of squeezing in a little precinct if you don’t have it or will it be controlled by one of the gangs?
I just went to the DIY store too buy some suitable materials 🙂
I actually renovated the first floor in our house last year so should be good 🙂
Wow, just wow this is the necromunder table I’ve always dreamed of. I love how you’ve got the levels to work seamlessly and the attention to detail it inspired. The xenos out line made me chuckle and the shops and gang boss hut are brilliant.
Thanks alot Dan! I’ve had so much fun writing and painting all kinds of weird stuff that’s coming up in my mind when working with it 🙂
Owww, now I would drop my other projects just to start again with necromunda scenery xD
One day you will have to show us a couple of pics of the whole table (with a person by it’s side to notice the size!)
Yeah do! I’d like to see some more necromunda projects from you 🙂
It’s grown so tall it’s not even possible to take pictures with people anymore 😉
Smashing work, could this be the ultimate Necromunda table, I think it could be 🙂
Very impressed and jealous !
Thanks alot Daxio!! 🙂
This is brilliant! I’d love to see a movie based on your underhive! So much details i almost expect to see the miniatures alive!
Thanks Nicolas! I actually had some plans for a stop motion short film. I’ll maybe do it if I ever get a large amount of spare time 🙂 I still like the idea!
So i wish you a large amount of spare time 😉
Me too! 😀
Man, I’ve been following you for a while already and I’m sure I’m not the only one to consider yours to be the best Necromunda terrain on Terra. You’ve posted the first four tiles in the ‘how to’ section — is there any chance you’ll showcase the other tiles separately?
PS. Wow!
Thanks alot Dread! Much appreciated! Great idea, I could maybe do some of my favorites at least. Keep your eyes open the coming month 🙂
Thanks for swift reply. Also I didn’t mention that but I’m astonished by, love and envy your perfect mix of realism, dark grim, unique ideas (like sub- and upper levels), DIY, balance of labour/result, playability, variability, inspiration, passion and a hoard of other goodness impossible to put in one thought :O
Your works infected me (passing it some of my fellows) with indwell idea of creating a Nerco-table of my own — as an opposition to the motley assortment of 40k/Mordheim terrain we use at the local club 😉
So another question: you’de mentioned you use kitchen tiles for sector bases — what exactly are those? As I understand these are ceramic — aren’t they heavy or breakable? Anyways thinking about modular terrain I was looking for bases that will be perfectly same size rather than sawing or cutting them myself as it will either be too labour/time-consuming or imperfect which will lead to bad connections.
I’m honoured!!! Many thanks to you for your response 😀
Yes, I use some ceramic floor tiles. They are a bit heavy but this is really an advantage. The buildings won’t fall due to clumsy players which could be a problem with so dense terrain. The other good thing is that they are very durable, no deforming or wobbling at all and you don’t need to care about exact cuts. The tiles I use are 33×33 cm but the perfect size would probably be one by one foot. Looking forward to follow your work!
Cheers

Utterly awesome.
Thanks D6! 🙂
Wow this is simply staggering! I would kill to have a game on a table of that quality! This really takes me back to my childhood, but brings the scummy, urban nature of the underhive bang up to date.
Lovely Delaque Ganges too – are they converted? They look like how I imagine Necromunda models would be if they were sculpted by Infinity.
Love your work!
Much appreciated feedbak technasma! It’s always fun to bring people’s childhood back in this sense 🙂
The Delaque models are from Heresy. Former GW sculptor i think. Truly recommend it!
