Instructables - Munchkin Card Game Board

19
Munchkin is a card/board game from Steve Jackson Games. The illustrations are drawn by John Kovalic of Dork Tower fame. A basic set of the cards and a dice will cost you around $19. It's a fun romp that makes fun of the “power gamers” that any RPG player has ever come across. The basic set does not however come with a board or mat to mark your progress through the ten levels of the game. This is where my indestructible comes into play. I am using techniques I learned from DM Scotty on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/user/theDMsCraft I thought that his 2.5d dungeon terrain would be an easy tweak for making a game board for Munchkin. You will need to use sharp objects and spray paint for this project. If you are a kid please have your parents help you out.
