Basic idea was to do each part as a 3 inch x3 inch tile so when arranged in a 4 x4 configuration it'd make a 1 ft square tile. By doing each tile seperate it'd allow me to add variety to the table.
One of the main cocnerns is that the various buildings would anywhere from 1-2 inches and laser towers would be about 4 inches tall. I'm thinking this could lead to some difficulty using it as a gaming surface. The raised details and buildings could make placing the ships difficult.
Would it be preferable to flatten things so the surface is flat or go with the full height buildings?
Here's a render of a more flattened out version which wouldn't be more than 1/4 inch in height
vs original model at same angle
