Woods

Here are some more woods I've just finished. Originally i purchase very small rare-earth magnets, and embedded them into each side of the tree and base. These magnets are very strong. Strong enough to hold the trees upright on the bases. It was perfect. Then I flocked the trees, and the flock and glue increased the tree weight enough that the magnet could no longer hold....it was disasters. I had to dig out the magnets and reattach the trees permanently to their bases. Ah well. Live and learn. heheh

Closeup of a single stand, I think I made 14 or so.Here they are, I cut out felt material in random shapes to delineate the edge of the wood.

Here's a birds-eye view, that's a 6-foot coffee table.

A bit closer view. They look pretty good.

Tower Terrain

So the local hobby shop gets free kits sometimes and they ask me to use them for new store terrain. In case you have learned by now, I dont like keeping kits whole for 2 reasons:

#1 because I feel like thats how you will mostly encounter kits, whole, painted just like you see on the box.

#2 Plastic kits often dont go easily together how the instructions say they should.

#3 I prefer to base my terrain. I use MDF type board, and bevel the edges.

Inside the tower base with a single wall layer topped with ruined wall bitz.

Side view of same.

Here is the top of the tower, and 2 lower floors on a scratch-made base. pinebark nuggets, and some hirst columns.

Warhammer Race specific terrain features

So, again, I've been on assignment from the local hobby shop to make warhammer terrain, and the rulebook has specific terrain features that can play a part of warhammer games, proximity to said features have different effects on units, and the game.

Lizardman spawning pool, the poor eggs in the area on the left didn't stand a chance.

Orc totems...if you know anything about me, you know I love orcs for some reason. heheh

Sacrificial altar of the witch elves...

Dwarf Brewhouse with a spill outside, apparently.

Warhammer Shrine/Chapel

Again more terrain features from the new warhammer book. This one is a shrine/chapel of some sort. In the game, being in proximity of these terrain features gives some sort of special condition (good or bad). This is WIP as because its sort of a ruined chapel I'll do some more stuff to it, like vines growing up the side, etc.
Also the statue inside is covered in bird poo. but its hard to see from the pic.

Lizardman Spawning Pool

So, this is a work in progress shot of my lizardman spawning pool. Again the liquidtex found ways out of the containment area, hehe seriously, I guess Im pretty bad sealing up my stuff. Still it does look cool and I plan on putting quite a few plants, grass, etc. around the pool before I call it complete so I left it. the pool on the left obviously became non-viable with the collapse of the wall and the water draining out. Poor little skinks...

Hey, post a comment if you think you know what's inside the spawning pool.

Warhammer Terrain

Here is a Wizard's Tower. My dread is there for scale. heheh Its' big. I looked through the Warhammer rulebook and there are several terrain features that can be represented with the terrain piece. Besides, it looks cool. 'How do you get in?' I hear you say...
Here is the door, in the base of the rocky crag the tower is built upon. If you know my reference material for the door design, you have known me a very long time. It is my college apartment door, it was hideous, and everyone knew which one was our apartment. heh.

BTW, I utilized the Warhammer Manorhouse terrain box and split up the various parts and added elements to make a bunch of terrain, rather than assemble it ad hoc exactly as pictured on the box top.

side view of same piece.

Warhammer terrain

I made the witchelf sacrificial shrine out of Hirst blocks, the large metal spikes are foamcore and card, with platicard rivets. I then filled the center with liquitex colored to resemble blood. i like the liquitex, but you gotta make sure you seal wherever you are putting it, because otherwise it'll leak out, hence the blood on the stairs...of course I like it and left it. (see brewhouse below)

This is another urban renewal project, this poor chaos church was in disrepair and I have based it and repainted it. It looks like you could really get your demon-worship on in there!
Here it is from the front.

Okay so my brewhouse starts off with the 2 Vats along its back wall, then I got it in my head that for some reason they might be sucking up some nasty sludge from a walled pen outside to make their deliciously refreshing elixir. Again, the liquitex found its way outside the containment area, and again I kinda liked it so I went with it. ha ha someone's gonna have a mess to clean up.
