Mordheim (sort of…)

Roof tiles are easy to make and they look great, especially the smaller tiles. However, they take a long time to apply, so for this « mass crafting » project, I avoided them, except for two small areas. (They are just leftover tiles from my previous large building.)

About two months ago, I found some really nice rectangular wood bases at the dollar store. That inspired me to make a small ruined house with XPS foam bricks.

I was not overly pleased with the result. It looks a bit boring, so it just sat on my shelf.

While working on the other buildings, I figure I should finish it as well.
Going to add a few elements to make it more interesting: a barrel, broken down beams, chains. We’ll see how that comes out in the end 🙂

I added small rocks and a lot of sand on the bases with PVA glue.

Once it was dry, I poured watered-down PVA glue to make sure nothing was coming off later.

Still need to add some tuft and oil wash, but I like how this simple squared tower is looking 🙂

Added a barrel, a crate, some broken chains, and some wood beams. The painting on the bricks and the wood is not finished, but I like how adding a few details to a terrain piece can really make more interesting.

Since I was visited by the unofficial Hobby Hangout, here’s a long overdue update! 🙂

And some wood bridges to connect the buildings. I thought I would add some ropes, but I like the way it looks right now.

May add a bit of blood splatter at one point 🤷‍♂️

The Cult of Games has new Grandmaster: all hail Boris Woloszyn!

To honour him, here’s two nice models that he sculpted.

The red tower was almost finished a while ago, but then life happened and I had no time for crafting..

Here is the final result:

A very simple structure (square tower..), but I like the way it came out.

A few key features make it more interesting:

– a hanging sign (as was suggested earlier in the comments),

– simple tiles plus a wood fence for the entrance

– the shed

The two towers side by side. Very similar architecture, but with slightly different dimensions.

The red colours really help to differentiate them.

Another simple ruined building.
Basic architecture, but I like how the corner bricks came out.

And a detail nobody will notice and/or care about 😆

This building is missing one of its bronze statue at the entrance.

The second bronze head can be found half-buried in the small ruins (another building).

A wood bridge to connect two structures. I should have made them longer..

Finished another building.
It’s a rather large ruin.
I was not satisfied with the initial result: it looked boring with wide open space.

I completed the flooring for the first story. I glued sand and pebbles on the base, but it was still off and plain looking.

So I opted to add flooring to the second floor. I added crates to the base (3d printed stuff from Etsy). I also built a small weapon rack a while ago for a different project, but I had never completed it.
