Re: The Last Hurrah Project: 04/25/24 Mushroom & Mini-Me Mushroom Done!

SO I was rather productive today; i.e., I did the doors, added the chimney pipes, tiled the roof, & did my white over black base coat:












...AND on the board:








...ON TO #5!
That will be tomorrow. I also went for the larger case for the Swamp Thing:






...that wraps it for today!

Nice work, Al, especially those doors.
 

I also appreciate the lack of crazy angles for this time in the morning.
Well, it is morning here when I am first seeing it.

Thanks, Paul. The doors just seem to go together effortlessly this time. I'm glad you like them.
Simplicity is the key to early morning happiness...along with coffee.

The moody lighting in that last pic already makes it look great even half-done.

It was unintentional, but the way the lights were placed made the areas behind them darker. It really did add to the mood.
I'm glad you like the results so far, Fram!

As threatened, Building #5, starting with views of each side & closeups of doors & points of interest:










...before the base coat:


...AND after:








Now a few photos of the new addition on location in The Blight:










Next up will either be Building #6 of 11 or window treatments...possibly both.

Looking good as always...

This quarter's getting pretty claustrophobic!

Thanks, Fram. I think it will get even more so; re, it's at the 5 of 11 building stage...I think a ruined building or two might be in order.

Well this is rather wonderful.

Reminds me of where I grew up too!

Thanks for the kind reply, Andrew...I'm delighted you like it.

It reminds me of a couple of places I have lived also.

Great as always! There's a fair few wonky Tudor buildings in my home town too...

Thanks, Globlin...I like your nom de forum, AND I'm happy to hear you like the stuff.

Loving the claustrophobic feeling of this part of town, mate.
 

It was something that I hoped to achieve for my Mordheim games, but never managed enough tall buildings to do it.
Maybe one day....

Thanks, Paul. It is getting that closed in feeling. I'm glad you like it.

I really do enjoy the tall buildings. I still have the Smuggler's Cove with an assortment of towering buildings in mind.

Inspirational mate!

I seen this picture and immediately thought you had built a cresent moon and attached it to a roof top!

That might be a good idea? Build a cresent moon with a face in it, like the old GW Bad Moon symbol, and fix it onto one of the buildings at the edge of your board?



Btw love the door handles in this pic as well!
