Very good ruin! Also nice to se some non-grey walls - shall have to remember to do some. I guess terracotta with white, bone, or flesh mixed in should do the trick?

Gray stone for everything seems to be the quick and easiest way to go.

Anyhow, I wanted to try something different here.

The colors I used were:

"Rusty red" as a a basecoat.

"Terracota" for the first HEAVY drybrush, and

"Cadmium" for the final drybrush.

I must say that for scenery pieces I use "cheap, school acrilic paints" and not my expensive GW or Vallejo "modeller's paint", so just go to your local big stationer's or handcraft store and get some chap acrilic paints there.

I'n glad you're liking my stuff.

Still some more to come, but need to upload the pics, and take some new ones, so until next time pals.

Best wishes.
I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!

Hi guys, time for a new building.

Egypt Pyramid.









Totally scratch built with cardboard and 5mm styrofoam.

Now, you may be wondering why there appears to be a "seam" in every edge of the pyramid.

Well, I live in an apartment, and only have a limited storage space for miniature scenery (and miniatures in general), and all those jungles, rocks and hills can't be folded or taken appart, but buildings can!

So I desing most of my buildings to fold, so I can store them in a drawer.



Now, I'm working in a set of "folding" middle east buildings.

I'll show you them ASAP.

Best wishes.

That is a great pyramid temple, and bonus points for the folding-flat part of the design!

Looking forward to the rest of the fold-flat buildings.

Love the idols.  Have you decided if you are going to cast them?

Nice stuff indeed. Those idols are perfect for something I have cooking "pulp-wise" at the moment. Any chance we're able to get a few?

Thanks a lot pals.

It's good to see you like my stuff.

Here's the first of the promised "folding-middle-east-buildings":







Hope you like it.

Right now, I'm working on several crates, barrels, etc. to populate the tabletop and provide cover for the characters.

I'll show them as soon as they're finished and I take some more pics.

Best wishes.

Some new angles of the folding building:





And the TIKI IDOLS moulds are ready, and I have produced and painted a few.

Here you can see some of them:



In raw resin, before painting:



And, as I can make lots of them, and just for fun, I filed down the faces of a pair, and sculpted new faces. I think they turned out very good:



What do you think?

Next, some boxes, barrels and luggage, I sculpted, made moulds and casted in resin, so the miniatures can have good hiding spots over the battlefield.

Best wishes.
