About the Project
This project is to record my progress in my ventures in Lyonesse. I backed the Kickstarter in 2014, that was also the time I discovered this fantastic community after watching the Let's plays on BOW. In 2017 I attended the Wolsung Bootcamp at OTT/BOW HQ and had a realy great time. Through the years I collected (almost) every model available in this beautiful range and I painted about 2/3 of them.

Some more models
I’ve painted some Wolsung models.
First up: Jonathan Wormwood from the Ven Rier faction.
Next uo is a Security golem from the Inventors faction.
And I painted a Zitrone “Dime”. It’s scenery but can also be used in game to transport figures around the table and do drive-by shootings.
Large Block of flats
It’s been a while since I updated this project. I finished (except for maybe some weathering) the 3 story Block of Flats by Micro Art Studios.
First a comparison between the smaller and the bigger BoF, it’s made up out of two model kits.
Here are some pictures of the exterior.
And some pictures of the interior. Wallpaper and wooden floors all around.
The Ground floor:
First floor:
And the second floor:
Hull level 2
The last couple of weeks I did a little bit of printing, the second level of the hull is now finished.
The rest of my time I spent on a new table which I built with my friend/neighbour.
Airship + building
The last couple of weeks I’ve been printing the airship. It still isn’t finished completely but I’m making some progress. The blimp is complete (and weighs in at 2050 grams). The 1st level of the hull is complete except for the interior walls. The 3rd level of the hull is also complete except for the railings. Here are some pics with a Wolsung mini for scale.
I need to fill some gaps before I can paint the airship. I think I will use Milliput for this. If anybody has a better idea, please let me know.
Also I have built a block of flats, I bought two kits at Micro Art Studios. I have split them up in a 1-story and 3-story building. The smallest of the two is finished. For the larger building I need more coffeestirrers for the wooden floor on the ground level. So on monday I’ll have an office day (I work at a coffee company) and take some home with me :-).
Airship
This evening I started a new print for the airship. It’s a part of the blimp and takes 56 hours to complete. I already printed some parts last week.
Painted train
Today I painted the train in a couple of hours.
It was an easy paintjob: black primer, some drybrushing, a couple of details and a wash.
Hope you like it.
T(e)r(r)ain
A couple of weeks ago I bought some extra terrain for Wolsung at Micro Art Studios at a great deal and it has arrived. It was a big box containing the Warehouse, 2 blocks of flats, 2 walkways and 2 cars. The cars I have put together, but the building I haven’t started yet.
While I was wandering through the projects system I saw some more terrain I liked by Sarissa Precision in the projectblog by @henrileite https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1631390/
So I bought the 28mm steam train with a couple of wagons. It’s a very nice set to put together, now to find the time to put some paint on it.
In the meantime I’m also 3D printing an airship from the Skies of Sordane range. It’s a very nice model, but it’s gonna be big, about 50 cm long.
So I have enough hobbytime ahead of me.
Under construction
It’s been a while since I spent some time on the construction of the mansion.
Today I got the basic construction of the roof roughly done (glue is drying now)
Next steps are detailing of the roof, making a balcony on the first floor and putting in the windows.
While I’m waiting for the glue to dry I’m already starting my next building.
A couple of months ago I bought a very nice book: ‘Buildings, tabletop terrain from XPS foam’. It was a kickstarter (which I missed), but had the opportunity to buy it directly from the creator Gerard Boom from Shiftinglands.com.
It’s a very comprehensive book which goes in detail what techniques and tools you can use. It also shows you step-by-step how to build 14 different buildings. I’m going to make the factory (which is the most difficult build of the book) with some steampunk features.
Gerard told me when I picked up the book that this print is a one-off.
When it runs out-of-stock it will not be printed again.
