Been quiet for a few weeks, preparing for heading away for work for a short period of time as well as getting distracted by painting up some Moonstone figures Ive had sitting around for a while.

But Before I left, I managed to get the final piece of the wall painted up.

And were up to date!

  • Next steps will be to finish weather the pieces that a base coated (2 towers and the final wall section)

At some point may go back through them all and add more weathering but for now I think were good.

  • I also need to start looking at a gaming mat.

I think I like DeepCut Studios Space Hulk Mat – Its grey, looks dirty and doesnt feel like its at ground floor level. Id have to see how bright it is, but a brown wash would dirty it up and tone it down if its too bright.

  • I need a few more pieces of scatter terrain to pack out the battlefield which I think I have the pieces left that I need to do this.
  • More towers ….. I think at least a couple more are needed …. just need to find some suitable donors.

Nothing major than cant be gamed around, but …..

The walkways from MAD gaming are a little narrow for the larger figure bases!

ANNNNNND …….

From the TTCombat Cloud Burster model …. the half height floors at 6cms high ….. are too low for flying gribbys!

But its nothing that cant be gamed around in a fairly easy way.

Walkways and Stairs

Built some additional walkways in the same style as those used on the towers, and also used some walkways with railings from a set from MAD Gaming (Orinigally I had ordered some of their kits but to cover a 4ft board would have gotten out of control from a cost point of view – while the models are pretty cool and customisable, decided they ultimately didnt quite do what I wanted them to do) – these were magnetised so can create different lengths if needed.

I also then built up some flights of stairs (not everything can be ladders) using MADs stairways kit.

The supports for the stairs were made from thin strips of chipboard cut 5mm wide and glued to make a “H” frame for support and to just give the impression of girders holding everything up…. also provides a little bit of cover/clutter to ground level.

3 different sets of stairs were made all with a different direction of travel for some variation.

Again, all painted in the same way as everything else up to this point with Yellow being the spot colour on the railings rather than red.
