Title: The Modern Stone Age village of Slatestone
Post by: dadlamassu on 14 November 2020, 02:32:16 PM

In anticipation of an eventual relaxation of Tier 3 Covid restrictions I set about creating a village for a fun game with the grandchildren. 

I found a bag of old stuff in the back of a wardrobe and in it were the usual furry toys, old broken toys and a bag of McDonald's Bedrock houses.  So I decided that we might try to incorporate them into a game of "Eat Hitler" or maybe a prehistoric zombie game or a stone age hunt or whatever.  After cleaning off the dust and debris of 20 years (or so) and filling in some of the cracks I undercoated and painted them grey.  The foliage is a mixture of shredded foam from figure blisters, flock powder and lichen.  The murals were applied with a Sharpie.  Not bad for a wet Friday the Thirteenth's work?

Thanks folks. 
It was a bit of fun.  I hope the game will be, too.
