Free City of Gierburg

[fastolfrus]

Thanks, fastolfrus! Hmm... the font is that GW standard font they use in their books, Caslon Antique. I kinda liked it. However, if I do more posters I'll bear it in mind and use others, older looking ones. Thank you! 

No worries - I'm not familiar with GW books, but have a few reprints of 17th century books and the fonts do look very different.
The only buildings I currently have with posters are a few WWII ones (mostly beer posters from France/Belgium but with a few German military ones for variety) or American Western ones (the usual crop of odd adverts and wanted posters)

vary nice start up, whats your planes with this?

It will be 16-18th century fantasy board that I will be using primarily for my Gierburg rules set. However, - and that was important for me right from the beginning - it will be perfectly usable for Mordheim and Legends of the High Seas as well. I knew it would be expensive and time consuming so I wanted to be able to use it in many ways so I don't run out of enthusiasm and motivation too soon.

Magnificent... love the blue/grey walls. What's that a mix of?

Absolutely stunning terrain! Can't help but feel a bit jealous, if only one had the "time" for such models... and the skills for that paint job.

I described the way I paint the walls in my post on the Coaching Inn. Basically it's just dark grey up to very light grey by adding white. The key is to dab the brush to get the irregular pattern.

I often write down the colours I use, both to help those who want to do something similar and to help myself remember them. My memory sucks big time and I often forget which colours I used, so to achieve a sort of uniformity I write them down (even when they're pretty simple). For the brickwork it is still useful for me today.

I've looked at the tabletop site, and those euro prices are hefty,

almost cost as much as to build a real village

although the models are fantastically done 

and they are in croatia i wonder whatthe postage would be 

[Doomhippie]

Very nice! Now that is some terrain according to my dreams. Very well done!

[El Grego]

Well done!     

[Leapsnbounds]

This is really impressive, I'm glad that you showed off the interiors and removable roofs.  It makes it that much more fantastic.

I'm glad you like it so far!

Those who are interested can now read a tutorial on my blog on how to do these posters (and feel free to use different fonts ).

Cianty, I'm deeply impressed! Brilliantly executed terrain, subtle painting, superb miniatures and a very nice blog which I will bookmark immediately!

My latest and last Forge World building is the Warhammer Forge. It is really a nice piece and after all the Forge World models I can definately recommend them. As usual, check out my blog for a review and more photos.

WHOAH!

Fricking amazing!  Great work!  Beautiful work on these buildings.

That’s amazing the level of  details you have put in this creation. The figures are very, very well painted too! I like the red hot metal rod in the hand of the… how do you said forgeron in English?
