My first Buildings for CiC

[Hombre]

Hi guys,
first thank's for your comments!
Now some answers to your questions:
They are made from Foamboard,balsawood and coffeestirrers.
relative simple to build,the" secret" is to add some structure and weathering
effects as a basis for effective drybrushing!
On the pictures the buildings looks a little bit monocrome,because of my poor
photographic skills . I use darkbrown color for drybrushing,you can see it better on the third picture.
When the buildings are one the gametable ,surrounded by gras ,trees, walls ,fences and some other details,they will look much better!!
At the moment they look a bit" naked .
I think a little bit monochrome catch the flair from gothic horror genre.
When you see at jet's gametable the buildings have all the same color, but with the scenery around them they looks fantastic.
Hope i can build also such a nice gamingtable!
About the working speed: that's my normal tempo,don't know how,routine

(when someone have questions about the rotten weathering effect on the walls
i can make some pics )

Just caught these and love them. 

Very nicely executed and at such pace.

I like the paint job a lot - very somber indeed for Gothic horror and the green of the surrounding scenery will make a huge difference.

Again - damn jealous of them and your speed.

Hello,
After a long busy time, i have now first pics from my table. Still waiting for ordered trees, so i can make some woods.

Very nice indeed

Nice layout!  It makes me want to play a game.

Excellent table.  Plenty of beautiful scenery like this certainly aids in the enjoyment of and immersion in specific settings such as Gothic Horror.  Now all you need is a rustic church and attendant graveyard   .  I had a really hard time deciding whether to set my games in Eastern Europe or Victorian Britain, in the end I plumped for the latter, but seeing this (along with Jet's work) sometimes makes me wonder if I made the right choice!  Mind you I have got some Snapdragon log cabins lying around somewhere...

My goodness, that table is just awesome. Those steep hills really make it seem like the buildings are nestled in the foothills of the Carpathians. Now you just need some individually-based trees, bushes and rocks. And if I may be pushy, I think the next batch of photos needs some miniatures in and around the town.

Funny you should say that. I have such a hankering to have a Victorian London board, if for not other reason, to run some Jack the Ripper games on.

Very nice! Would love to play on that table.

[General Roos]

Wow! Awesome buildings. Very Carpathian!

Lovely buildings, you should do some flat pack and cast them up?

Thank you Commander,
but i think that exceeds my capabilities a little bit! 

[Commander Vyper]

It's easier than you think, plenty of people here would give you advice on the subject.

Good luck.
