Terrain

As mentioned in my last post,I have decided to go all in and play the Chain of Command "29! Let's go!" Pint Sized Campaign.  I have ordered the new US GI figures from Perry Miniatures, but while waiting for those to arrive, I received a large box of MDF buildings from Charlie Foxtrot Models.

The pint sized campaign requires several buildings and I have none....so time to get building.  I started small with the Charlie Foxtrot "Workshop" building.


To improve the look of the basic structure, I added some plastic brickwork, bought from a model railway shop.


Then smeared the walls with very thinned down modelling clay.  Next steps will be to cover the building with a mix of filler/PVA and water to make it more unified.


And while I am about it, I've started making some roads as well - following the expert advice of Mel the Terrain Tutor.



Updates to follow.....

.... updates to buildings:




I slapped on some very thinned down modelling clay around the walls to represent plaster and then painted the brickwork, walls and doors.  I made a small base and added more modelling clay to represent muddy ground, and small grit to represent soil.  just need to flock the base, and add a couple of bits of detailing.
