I just got my Recreational Conflict package. This is the first time purchasing from them and I can say their customer service is great. Some quick shots of my vehicles.

Every church needs a graveyard so here is mine, very WIP I'm afraid.

I've carved the head stones from scrap blue foam.

Breaking news people West Winds Productions' Gothic Steampunk game Empire of the Dead is now carried in the US by WWW.BrigadeGames.com. They are selling all the faction box sets, the 12 special charters and the hard bound rule book. So now I can pick up some of the special characters I've missed like the Circ du Noir Man Ape for $12 no less!

Brigade Games also sells Parroom miniatures from all their lines, Secret Science, Of Mars and Martians, Victorian Science Fiction.

Some "Secret Science" figures.

There are some more pictures of Parroom figures on my blog http://fiendsinwaistcoats.blogspot.com/

Some in progress photos of the modular London Board. This board will be modular in the sense that each "block base" will be the same size so we can chance the building order every time the board is set up.
First up is the church purchased at the railroad shop. Its been primed grey and it looks better all ready. It will get a full on paint job soon. The church is getting a field stone pavement and wooden flooring for the interior. The interior will have pews and an alter glued to the floor. The church is one piece with a hollow interior so the church will simply be placed on top of the interior affixed to the base. The 1" areas at the edge of the block bases are for the side walks. More information on that in the future. Yes we have a plan for that hopefully it will work as planed.

You can see the third Block Base on my blog http://fiendsinwaistcoats.blogspot.com/

The Trouble With Scale

Consider this a cautionary tale. One of the main problems with making buildings from scratch is making them in the proper scale. Scale is the Bugbear every hobbyist has to contended with at one time or another. This is the tragedy of a building constructed out of scale. Lunatic R. found a photograph of the iconic Victorian terrace and used it to create this building. The building is beautiful. As you can see he used the foamcore foam without the paper, you can buy it like that, he painstakingly carved the brickwork into the foam. but... Its just too big, out of scale for 28mm. Its enormous and won't fit on our pre-measured "block bases". Notice the Malifaux figure next to the building, this figure has a huge "mad hatter' style top hat and yet its still smaller than the windows or doorway. Notice how it dwarfs the O scale church, its a tragedy of gigantic proportions.

As you can see with the West Wind figure in the last picture no real scale reference was used to build this. We used to use the old GW scale references to construct building but those are off. I'm going to need to find a good method of scaling buildings.

Can anyone help out with this? Does anyone have an accurate method of scaling buildings?

Hi there,

If you have a look at my post on this link (top of the page) I explain how I scale my buildings. It's not very scientific but it works. Feel free to PM me if you need more info.

Not sure if you said already but who makes the church?

kidterminal · « **Reply #42 on:** September 26, 2013, 11:39:33 PM »

The church is made by Bachmann and is called cathedral.
