Title: Back of Beyond - Russia Scenery
Post by: Belgian on February 18, 2013, 05:18:48 PM

With all those excellent back of beyond threads, I decided to build some terrain myself, Now I need some miniatures!  :?

Oil derrick needs some details

Peasant huts

Large peasant hut/ trainstation perhaps I'm constructing some bits and pieces for this purpose. Needs a different paintjob and some signs

Wind mill based on oil derrick templates

Belgian,
These look nice.  I really like the oil derrick.  I think that the houses need some dry brushing in lighter colors like grey or very light brown.  The thatch roofs for sure.  Just a little folliage would make them pop more as well.  I wouldn't touch the oil derrick as they were environmental disasters anyway  lol :'( lol

I agree, with a drybrush, these buildings will look very good ;-)

beware tough : Back of beyond is very addictive ;-)

Thanks for the nice comments, the buildings will undergo some repainting and drybrushing.

@Ardbeg: To be honest, now I want to game back of beyond grand style, but it will probably end up in a closet!

Cheers

With a little dry brushing,
the buildings turned out great.
Like them a lot.
