Like where this is going.... 

[oldskoolrebel]

No! Stop it! For a while now i've been trying to stop an urge to build a mordheim board. This isn't helping! Not one bit!

Really nice build, very inspiring. I just love the look of it- i really like the flexibility that the canals add and i'd love to try something similar myself.

What are your plans for ruined buildings etc? Are they all going to be stratch built?

Cheers
Andy

This thread is taking on Zeppelinesque proportions... I can't wait for the next instalment.... keep up the good work

[Faber]

cheers guys! You are really motivating us! 

@Ninja: interesting mate! Please, feel free to share anything about: I will never have enough info about water effect

@Argonor: thank you Argonor, we are happy of such a interest from you LAFers vets! It seems we are going in the right way

@oldskoolrebel: eheh! This project started as a Mordheim project but will become something more: a ruined town for any fantasy skirmish game we can imagine About canals, it will be funny to have places where small boats can fight. If you want to create something similar feel free to ask anything, we are happy to share!
about bulidings, yes, we prefer to scratch built them, but if we find something nice we can buy too. But, I did not find nothing in the style we need. If the inspiration mood is venetian it will be a hard job to build them. 

@Jules: thank you mate! hope it's not something like Hindenburg now we are carving floor...a painstaking job but IMO a great result...

I think he meant Gamer Mac's thread about building an airship (with complete interior) for BLAM. If so, a well deserved compliment for all this effort!

[Calopide]

Hello LAFers!
I'm the mentioned Vincenzo, Faber's fellow in this ambitious project! After a long wait I decided to come out and sign up 
this is my first modelling experience at all. Seems a good start!
I am happy you like our project until now. Looking forward to show you the next upgrade

BREAKING NEWS: we bought Pike and Shotte and Zombies! and the first supplement, Plague City! (more here) It seems a super game! Perfect for our little Mordheim...

[Sangennaru]

Welcome to Laf! Another bologna guy i'm gonna meet on jenuary!

[Calopide]

@Sangennaru: we are waiting for you and your contribution in our preject! i'm sure that it will be really useful for us! 

[chantyam]

Just going to add good luck to whats turning out to be an epic project. Now I may get around to adding some canals/river sections to the project pile (still have some rowing boats/small sailing boats and subs that I never use).

[Sangennaru]

@Sangennaru: we are waiting for you and your contribution in our preject! i'm sure that it will be really useful for us! 

hehe, so curious

[Faber]

@Bezzo: really honouring us with this compliment Bezzo!  (I showed GamerMac's zep thread to Calopide and he is still in awe  )
work in progress, upgrade soon!

@chantyam: many thanks mate! we'll need a bit of luck I think that make some canals on your gameboard is always an interesting thing: canals are beautiful IMO and really gives you nice gaming chances! We are lookin forward to buy some little ships for our game...

[Faber]

to break the monothony...here's a little miniatures upgrade. We bought Pike&Shotte&zombies and Plague City supplement, intending to run a fantasy version. So we need: 1) fantasy survivors! 2) fantasy zeds!
About point n°2, we ordered 30 mantic zeds. About point n°1, here is first 3 figures





They are mercenaries, yellow and blue was the colour of their company (i have a small yellow and blue imperial army, but that's another story)
First one is Severio, marksman, a serious man who would like to survive



Second one is Arroganzio, marksman.





Third one, Aggressivio, captain, is a real son of a bitch. This brave bastard is happy with the Zeds Plague: he loves to fight!







finally, a dog  technically it is not for P&S&Z (it's my imperial genral war dog) but maybe I can use it anyway.





Hope you like it guys! c&c welcome

cheers
Faber

Beautiful miniatures, Faber!
Excellent paintjobs and lovely colour scheme ( )

They would walk straight into my Nordland Warband;

Great minds think alike! 

Keep up the good work, mate!

(By the way; Where is the dog from- great mini?)

[Faber]

thanks Mason! glad you like them, but I was sure of it, I've seen yours before in Krappefort same style same flavour!
yellow-blue-red is lovely on imperial warband! About the painting, I'm sorry for the pics low quality (they look better than this IMO): Calopide taked them for me with his cell phone and we had no phototent and only one lamp...not bad with this poor stuff anyway IMO. I'm ordering a phototent for future better pics 
the dog is an awesome OOP from Rackham, keyword: "dog trainere cadwallon" or something similar. It was a pack of three dog like the one in the pic and a dog master. I've found it on ebay some months ago... If you are going to search and if you find more than one blister...tell me! I want more dogs
