Title: First attempt at `CD Terrain`, small medieval village
Post by: Tomsche on 22 June 2010, 08:14:26 PM: For use in games like Seeds of War, Warmaster Ancients, Johnny reb in 6mm etc etc, I tried my hand at building a first terrain piece onto a cd, a small 10mm village.

Any tips are greatly appreciated as always

I can see tha advantages of this idea. I have always wanted soem Orc buildings for epic.

Any chance of a WIP?

the roofs could be a bit darker and stained by rain

Small cheap resin buildings from Gauthey Miniatures, greenstuff, small tats of plasticard and different sorts of flockings

yep... some more detail on the grass and road would make it... might drop what I assume is a ploughed field in the back... looks odd as it stops at the edge of the cd... do a farm on another cd...

Very nice - looks like an enjoyable evening or two at the workbench.

At that scale I'd leave it alone. Looks great. :)

Post by: Aaron on 23 June 2010, 01:11:43 PM: Very nice, that! :-* Maybe a small clump of foam flocking or two to repesent bushes, but I agree the roads look great as is.

Post by: marko.oja on 23 June 2010, 02:00:56 PM: Very nice stuff. As Operator5 said, maybe a few bushes. I think I'll do the same to my Timecast mediterranean buildings...
