Thank you. Below you can see the new terrain piece on my swamp gaming table and my Seraph for my new Twilight Order posse (testing another new piece of terrain).

Very nice. I’ve often thought of doing some sort of swamp / water table with islands. This is really good inspiration

Hi Nightpaw,

The bayou/swamp board is very effective; great work.

Presumably you play The Carpenters' 'Jambalaya' on a loop for atmosphere. I can't think of anything more authentically Cajun than The Carpenters.

Thank you for your Feedback.

@Luisito: First, I painted the whole board with dark green tinting color from my lokal DIY-store. Afterwards, I sprayed circles from a medium distance with a medium olive tone and a light green tone. After drying the board was sealed with three layers of glossy finish.


@Cubs: To be honest, I've been humming Warrant's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" *) for the last three days while building the terrain, but unfortunately my gaming mates don't appreciate Hair Metal. I will probably use Hayseed Dixie as our gaming soundtrack. But thanks for the advice, maybee I will give the Carpenters a try. ;)

My third posse (Twilight Order) is almost finished. Ladies an Gentlemen, would you please welcome the Holy Order of St. Patrick!

From left to right: Reverend Henry Cane (Mercenary/Preacher), Rob Stewart (Novice), Pater Grigori Rasputin (Novice/Arcanist, Skill: Slick), Tuco Ramirez (Novice), Barakiel (summoned Seraph), Evander Lynch (Crusader/Leader), Sister Mary Mullen (Novice, Skill: Deadeye), Wayne Wallace (Crusader/Novice), Billiboy Thornton (Novice).


Hope you like them. I have gathered this posse for the Forbidden Power campaign, where they have fought two battles yet. While they performed very good in the first scenario (against woodland skinwalkers), I had bad luck between the scenarios (my former leader perished) and they got beaten up badly in the second scenario (mythos creatures kept spawning near my main force and I missed my opportunity fire too often).

After some serious health problems I am finally back to the hobby. At the moment I am working on a kin posse called "The Weasleys". They are all red haired, of Course...

John Weasley, the leader of the pack, is finished. In the first picture, he is standing in front of Weasley Manor.

All looking great. Love both main boards. The mine is just the inspiration I need to get on with mine (no pun intended, I think?)

Nice posses too. Where is the Seraphim from? It's the one slot I have missing from my God bothers posse.

Great work, Nightpaw - thanks for sharing.  I love the mine - that is a very "playable" board.  The water on the swamp board came out beautifully.

Good luck to your posse.  Sounds like they have had a bit of a rough time.

-Michael
