Whitechapel Horror! UD 28/03 - Entire table so far (30 images)
« on: February 01, 2018, 07:21:37 PM »
This has progressed somewhat from my opening remark that it was a “side project”.  :o

A bit of background:

Whitechapel Horror! is my project to create a solo and cooperative game of Victorian Gothic Horror. The setting is Whitechapel, in the destitute East End of London, just before the turn of the 19th century. Hiding in plain sight, vampires have made this area their home. Though terrified of the regular bloodletting, Whitechapel's residents are ignorant of the bloodlust that moves freely amongst them.  But the vampire presence isn’t unknown to all: there are vampire hunters - bold and brave men and women - who have become aware of this evil and hunt it down, determined to eliminate it first in Whitechapel and then from England.

For a consolidated summary of my LPL13 of 2019 painting competition entries - all of which were for this project - please see here:

ORIGINAL FIRST POST FROM HERE

A side project that is my first foray into Gothic Horror.

The Victorian East End: a WIP build of a Whitechapel slaughterhouse:



















The buildings, with modest modifications by me, are all from Oshiro Model Terrain.

http://www.oshiromodelterrain.co.uk/victorianbuildings.html

Very pleased with the Oshiro product and at some point I shall add terraced houses etc.

Next steps though are to add the roof tiles (provided by Oshiro) and various gates.


PS:
Nothing is as yet painted just undercoat

Splendid, I especially like the bricked up windows. :)

Thanks folks. Interest much appreciated.  :)

I’m actually clearing out hobby stuff - I have had these building kits for a bit as they were bought to become a brewery for my Belgium board (but that’s a demolished town and I couldn’t bring myself to cut the kits up).

Splendid, I especially like the bricked up windows. :)

You can’t be letting too much daylight in  ;)  :)

Exactly, I was just thinking how about adding some planks of wood, roughly nailed over a few more windows for the full effect?

Thanks folks. Should get the build finished today - though I might get distracted by the minis 😉

Why pay for more glass when wood works just as well?
