Title: Quendil's Early War Adventures - Terrain First
Post by: Quendil on May 20, 2018, 05:57:40 PM

I have been working on some terrain I can use for WW2 gaming, mainly Bolt Action.  I love the idea of Operation Sea Lion so am sorting out Terrain for my Brits to face up against the Germans.

Fist up is updating my polystyrene tiles from TSS.  They were rather bland being all the same colour so have added more flock which I think is a great improvement.

Next up I have got some MDF kits but I have never been very happy with them after painting and can't afford the pre painted types.  So I decided to clad them in Noch sheets.  My first test was a church with has turned out quite well.

Next up is my WIP on a row of terrace houses.

Still along way to go and have learned quite a lot from doing this so can hopefully make it easier with the next one.

Looking good.

Thanks, very much a learning curve.  It would probably help if I didn't keep changing what project I am working on
