About the Project

Due to a life getting in the way i never have time to enter any of the Terrain Challenges or even get involver in the forums as much as i like, and still don't have the time. so i thought for my Terrain Challenge why not let it build itself!! about two years ago i backed a Kickstarter by Z1Design whom had designed a modular modern day, 3D printable Buildings. I've only just got my 3D printer going and why not whits I'm at work have it build my Terrain Challenge for me HA HA HA. i hope to keep you all updater on my progress, troubles and successes as my work horse of a 3D printer churns through the filament and i can show what can be made. keeping it on topic. i will be making a tourist of American city style apartments t use in my games off Walking Dead, DC Universe and Fallout. the major thing i will need to contend with is time, for me to have time to keep up with the project and the time it takes to print everything to build this project. hope you all keep with me on my first ever Project, Terrain Challenge and first major forum posts.

After the guys on the Hobby Hang Out talked about my issue on what to do with roads, i have decided to use a mat for the roads and printed out side walks only so i have the ability to move the biding in to different positions on the table more easily. lets look at the mat. It is by PW Work Wargames

There is always a balance between trying to use as much of the print bed as you can to how long the print will take.

So from the start i wanted to do a dirty white van. To dirty it up I’ve been airbrushing some streaks and heavy travel areas with a skeleton bone and then picked out details with leather brown.

to give that extra look of mud and used look i applied some Vallejo Thick Mug. I stippled this on using an old brush in areas such as the skirt of the van and around the handles on the door.

Using the Army Painter anti-shine matt varnish spray has helped reduce the visible edges of the transfer and has given an overall smoother Finnish to the paint before going to weathering.
