Two threads? I replied to the johnny-unpopular one...

I thought I'd start a new thread for my question rather than bury it here. New pictures as the forts get painted will be added here though.

And here they are! Done and painted and ready for a game or three!

They look the biz

Might I suggest a little bit of weathering in the form of stains running down from the windows and from the top of the tower (only needs a small amount).

cheers

They are the business!

I'd almost say that the one I like the best is the little shack.. full of atmosphere!

In an atmospheric light and with a little cigar smoke blown across these models could look eeirily real.

I know what you mean. I'm quite pleased with how the thatching came out. But from being just an out building it's become a star of it's own.

Cheeers James.
So would you suggest some watered down mid-tone brown or tan along the tops of the walls and bottoms of the windows?

Yup

And a bit of green watered down ink 'growing' up from the base in a few places.
