Gothic Cathedral Ruin??
« on: January 13, 2008, 01:00:08 PM »
Hi guys, need some help.
Who does a good Gothic Cathedral Ruin?
I'm looking for one that is about 20-30cm long and with a central ruined tower - like so:

You could produce something from Games Workshop WH40K ruins, if you want generic bits and can eliminate details such as Imperial emblems.

I'd recommend Hirst Arts.

I'd probably second Hirst Arts.
If you don't fancy homecasting there are people who just sell blocks - there's an eBay seller called WWG (WoldWideGames) that does quite a bit, and there are plenty of others around.

Otherwise Hovels have a ruined church (H54), not quite what you need but it has a tower :

Armorcast had some, don't know though if the new owners produce these as well. IIRC, some molds and masters were sold to different people.

Monolith do some nice pieces as well:

No complete churches/cathedrals, but you could make quite an extensive one out of the components.

I second JollyBob's suggestion of Monolith Designs. You could make an extensive cathedral from their church ruins. Excellent stuff it is. :)

Thanks for the suggestions guys!
Will bear in mind when I get around to the Cathedral!

Separately, any idea where I can get plain, smooth Gothic arches about 5cm tall?

This is what I'm looking to do:

Check out HirstArts, there are a couple of gothic moulds there which I think would suite you quite well.
