I`m a little late here but thought I`d comment anyway. When my son was younger we got into tabletop war games. We needed terrain to make the games interesting and I couldn`t afford it so thought I`d have to make some. When it was done I thought it was pretty easy to make and looked good, so why not try to sell some on eBay. I used the money from that to buy the models we wanted for years. Later my son`s interests changed (of course). At that point I continued to make and sell terrain but starting using the money for other things. Now more than ten years later I still sell wargame terrain on eBay buy spend the money on my fish addiction.

I hope this is allowed, if not I`m sure one of our mods will let me know. This is one of the things sold on eBay for several war games played with 28mm scale models. My son and I spent many hours together along with his buddies playing these games.

Thank you! I try to make my terrain look as natural as possible. I used to sell worldwide but there is a guy in Poland now that does amazing work so the European market has dried up. Shipping is cheaper for them.
I hustle other kids in the lunchroom by trading snacks and I am decent at videogames and puzzles so they pay me to help them win
Side job money for the hobby....Yesterday married a lovely couple from Vancouver, Canada at this beautiful resort villa venue below. Tomorrow I'll be marrying a super nice couple all the way from New York city at the beach -- met them today, both down to earth, hard working city transit employees (bus drivers). The have a pretty stressful job so were loving our island lifestyle, it's going to be great being part of their special day too.
The villa had a nice little pond too, which has given me an idea for a thread to start on the Pond sub-forum.
