I saw a blog on the Cave Wars Yahoo grop that I moderate. It was for painting Cavemen. Whilst looking I found his Pulp Savage Worlds site. Now I am not sure if the gentleman is a member of the Lead adventure forum (if so please stand up) but the eye candy is great using B&W paint techniques

That newsstand was scratchbuilt. I know there is at least one terrain manufacturer that produces a newsstand, but I can't remember which one.

I have asked for a tutorial as I must at least give it a bash. It says he used white, black and 6 shades of grey?

The news stand is from Steve Barber's Prohibition Wars range:

The photo looks great. :)  However I think when you see the miniatures on a gaming table painted in black and white, it just doesn't work for me. :(

Howdy, all!
   That bit of B&W is my doing. The newsstand, hotdog wagon (and sidewalk) all are scratchbuilt. Someone over at the Yahoo Cavewars group requested a B&W painting tutorial; well, here it is!

http://carmensminiaturepainting.blogspot.com/ (you may have to scroll down if I've added something new to the blog by the time you see this message.)

For any prehistoric gamers out there, a caveman painting tutorial follows the B&W tutorial. I hope you enjoy!

Feel free to ask questions, by the way.

(Mr.) Carmen

The only terrain I did up is what you see in the picture. My group of friends aren't wargamers, so I haven't had a reason to do up some buildings and such....yet.
