Quite a big African terrain project COMPLETE!

[Bugsda]

 :-*Excellent! The donga looks brilliant, not so keen on the eastend slapper though

Whats the saying ?...."only two things in life are certain - death and taxes" ?  Well I think we can add a third....."Im starting a terrain project" by Captain Blood is guaranteed to be perfect eye candy.

This is the second piece of work I have now followed and I am just completely staggered by the skill and final product.  Amazing work.

[Mad Doc Morris]

Magnificient!

just curious, how/where do you store all your terrain masterpieces? They are quite BIG 

Exactly my thoughts.
Besides, the table is not bad. Darn, it's absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.

Saw this over on SD's site; cracking stuff Captain.
Can you tell me where you source your cork bark please?

[Captain Blood]

Thanks all 

Can you tell me where you source your cork bark please?

Well actually, I picked up this lot when I went to the Algarve on holiday earlier this year - it's where they grow and harvest the stuff. Forests of it, everywhere. I don't think tourists are supposed to help themselves, even where it grows freely by the side of the road. But I found a fallen tree a viewpoint up in the mountains, and liberated a rather large section of the bark as a souvenir

I'm going back there in October 

In the UK however, I'd heartily recommend my new find, the 4D Model Shop - see this thread. http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=22488.0

Big poly bags of 1Kg of cork bark for a tenner. You get assorted sizes and shapes in the bag, but I reckon enough in one bag to build almost as many cliffs again as I've created here...
Compared to certain model railway brands where you get one mingy piece of cork bark in a nice little pack for several quid, it's an absolute bargain.

Unless you're going to Portugal that is...

Cheers Captain...an old haunt of mine 4D; did not know they did cork......

Two reactions:

Firstly,  Just absolutely inspirational terrain.

Secondly,  Because I'm not going to BLAM...

[Traveler Man]

An amazing piece of work!  I especially like the effect of the water-smoothed rocks in the draws.

Stunning stuff Captain, this whole thread has been a masterclass in terrain building.

Please excuse my ignorance but what is BLAM?
If its a show and this is on display i must go.

Thanks
Paul

[Captain Blood]

Thanks all, once again 

Jolly - you are too kind sir 
BLAM is a small(ish) gathering of lead adventurers taking place for a few games over a weekend mid-October (venue in South-West London).
If you'd really like to come along, we can probably squeeze one or two more in 
To join the party, you need to drop a pm to Organising Genius, Malamute.

It's pretty swell all it needs is some Aliens and some Space Marines.
