Lovely bits of terrain. I particularly like the telegraph poles.

Great work- like the shack with the propeller and the ruined S tank.

Huh, those loose bits of rubble look really effective. The painting's great throughout. ...I mean as far as capturing the dismal look goes its spot on. Is that all just pieces of foam you've made most of that terrain with?  ???

Foamboard, foam,sand/gravel, clay/GS, small 1:35 bricks (might have been 1:48),cork and plasticard, etc...
I keep using what I find/got and not im not always satisfied with the results, therefore some of the terrain never get shown/finished and get reused as new materials for new projects.

Heh, if you don't think its good enough then take a picture of your terrain all bunch in together and shove them in the gaps. ;)

So I actually finished a terrain piece thats been in limbo for a while!
 Also took some pictures for you to see how i work when creating terrain.





Primarily its made of MDF, foamboard, sand and cork, coated with glue,brown paint and sand to create a texture and then later painted, aswell as added a few bricks and tufts.

It looks real good you seem to do something similar to me you just keep adding bits till it looks right.
