A greenhorn entering the wild west (Update April 3 '24)

Great looking terrain and figures.

Thanks man!

And another update, it has been a very productive weekend! This time a derelict church from Sarissa and a ACW house from Renedra. The plastic Renedra house was very easy to paint. Some drybrushing and a final wash on the roof and floorboards and done. Should work well as a simple farmhouse.
The church was a lot more work, but also a nice experiment. Like with the caboose I did previously I used masking fluid to get a worn and chipped paint look, which works well with an old abandoned church. I also really like how the whole church sits at an angle, as if it's about to collapse. Perfect for a ghost town.

Stellar stuff there! Very nicely painted all around, both terrain, buildings and minis. Thanks for showing off your efforts, much inspiration to be had here  .

Great stuff, your terrain is coming along nicely.

Beautifully done! Great looking buildings, especially the derelict church!

It all looks good, but I like that church in particular...

More wild west stuff done in March! I finished 4 more female gunfighters (only 2 left from the box of 10), some scatter scenery and fencing (from Mantic's Vanguard Kickstarter), a repainted and rebased water tower from Ainsty and finally, an undertaker set from Umbum. So a lot more finished stuff added to the collection!

Female gunfighters








Scatter terrain
For the sign I added two town names I am using for my games: Snakerock and Oxville! The barricades are mostly for scenarios, they will be a bit out of place for regular games.



Fencing
PVC fences...they are nice, but it's a shame they have these typical dimples you see on plastic stuff. But still, you won't see that during gaming.



Water Tower
Bought around 2000 from Ainsty and used a lot for my Warmachine games. Now rebased for Dead Man's Hand!



Umbum Undertaker
Saw this for cheap on Amazon, a cardboard kit. You don't need glue for assembly and the scale is perfect for 28mm gaming. It's real fun to assemble and looks awesome once done. I did reinforce most of it with hot glue and then cut off the outer tabs so it will look less like cardboard. As a finishing touch I did the cardboard edges with felt markers and I covered up some spots with moss and turf. Really awesome building and I love the cemetery that comes with it. To conceal the cardboard earth around the fresh grave, I covered it with tile grout. This looks perfect as fresh earth.







And everything together in one shot!
