Here's my second attempt at serious terrain building. The basic structure is finished, but I have some touching up to do. Sorry for the weird angles on some of the pictures... I noticed that the interior is pretty bare, even with extra bits added. So, here's my question to you: What should I add to the interior/ exterior to spice them up? I was thinking vines on the outside as well as warning posters, maps, or perhaps a computer screen or two. What do you guys think? Thanks.

Posters on the outside, maps and maybe a bunk bed on the inside.

Alright, update time. I've added some details to spruce up the place. Special thanks to Rarves for giving me some ideas. Anyway: Warning sign reading, "Caution: This sign has sharp edges," inspired by an IGMB member's avatar, though for the life of me I can't remember whose. Large, pompous-looking general on the wall: Desk with area map, in front of one of the three windows for easy observation: And everything put together: Apologies for the oversized and out-of-focus pictures. They make it all look pretty sloppy. Any further suggestions as well as C&C welcome and appreciated. Thanks for reading.

Looks good! I'd maybe cover over those gaps in the top of the wall with filler, I think it spoils something that is otherwise very nice.

Thanks, Happyorange. I had thought of that, but haven't quite found the right kind of filler. I pick some up.

Build yourself a few small stuff that can be easily put in and removed (Tables with helmet on, shelves, benches, bunkbeds). That way the the "house can be easily altered with a new set up every game.
PS. It is a little late for it, but when working with cardboard glue one piece vertical and one piece horisontinal. That way you will lessen the warping and strenghten it way more. DS

CaptainHindenburg: Ah, of course. Now I remember! I hope it does your avatar justice. I know it entertains anyone who bothers to look closely. And thanks for the compliments about the windows. @all: I've found some plumber's putty lying around, and will work on filling the top gaps from the corrugated cardboard. When that's done, rest assured updates will be posted. Also, this piece, though unfinished has already seen some action in the form of a my IG and my friend's Tau besieging a squad of SMurfs hiding within the building.
