wip LotOW scenery by NetTerrain

[NetTerrain]

LotOW could be one of the games to get me back into mini gaming after 7 years pause, so I started to build some houses from balsa:





First painted building, the Land Office:



2nd storey building, of course you can take off the upper storey:



row of buildings, including my first "unusual color building" ever:



"Welcome to Rocky Creek, Population 89... ah, 87":



without cacti it wouldn´t be complete:




What else is planned?
Of course finishing the paintjob on the buildings, a saloon, some more different fronts, some scenery like rocks or mesas, fencing etc
Lots of work still ahead of me.

Only real problem I face: I´m lousy at painting minis, not enough patience, I guess. So my posse will take quite a while...

Really,really  nice looking buildings, and nice cactus aswell. :love:

Looks like the start of a fine collection. I am sure your figures will be fine, your painting ont he scenary is spot on.

[PeteMurray]

That is some excellent work!  :love:  :love:

as usual, some excellent pieces from Harald! Like them a lot, keep it up!

I´m still unsure to ask someone from the Upper Echelons of the Arkham University about a trade: paint slave work vs terrain slave work

Harald,

Gorgeous work on all of the Old West buildings & terrain. Got a question for you, what did you make the Cacti out of?? been thinking of making a few for myself, but those look nice.

So please tell, inquiring minds must know.

very good work !!

tell me something abaut the cactus modells .

[NetTerrain]

I cheated on the cacti:

the cacti are actually old Timpo toys I still had lying around (must have been in my BitzBox for at least 5 years...). After I used them for the terrain I found out, that ONE of them brings around 3 Euro on the German Ebay... so that´s quite some money I could possibly have made by selling this original Timpo from the 70ties.

Oh well...

[Terrible Tim]

Great buildings. Can you post some pictures when you have finished painting them all?

TT.

[NetTerrain]

finally found some time for painting again, so here´s an update - still lots of WIP:

[NetTerrain]

roofs are all finished, signs are up - all buildings finished now.
Maybe I´ll add a small roof in front of the sofar unnamed "Redwood Saloon", but that has time for later.

Individual pics will be on my homepage www.netterrain.de monday next week

[DrunkenSamurai]

Wow!  Great stuff.  Now I want to play some Old West...I hate Old West.  I'm so confused.

[Prof.Witchheimer]

great as usual, Harald!

[PeteMurray]

Fantastic! They look just like an Old West boom town.

[Argonor]

Very, very nice!!!

Just an idea: I would, instead of making the pavings part of the buildings, have them as separate pieces (in different lengths, and maybe several sets in different styles/colurs) to lie in front of the buildings - that way I could make a consistent row of pavings, even covering the odd gap between buildings. As I said, just an idea....
