WIP ... Any Port in a Storm ... Buildings added 7 June 2013

[Ramirez Noname]

Slowly working on a new multi period game board (Pirates/IHMN/VBCW/Pulp)

Results so far with a few TSS buildings dotted around for a bit of flava'

and a bit more work - blue styrofoam harbour wall added and filler to some of the gaps

Awesome work, I love all the brickwork on the sea wall.  The boat is amazing!

[Andym]

Excellent work so far!!! I may have missed it, are you planning to cover the white polystyrene with anything? Maybe polyfilla, sand or even embossed plastic sheets?

[Rob_bresnen]

I am loving it so far.

Thanks All for the positive comments

Awesome work, I love all the brickwork on the sea wall.  The boat is amazing!

The sea wall originally was a small test building which I threw together a couple of years ago - I carefully dismantled it and formed the wall, hence the offset on the left hand side of it. The boat has been in this state for far too long - the rigging needs a bit of attention, the masts have to be enhanced and painted and I also want to add some stowed sails. It's a "Minimi" casting, which is a great casting for a land-lubber like me to work on. I have a few cannon and trade goods which will also be added in due course.

Yeap, the polystyrene is not very dense so it will have a covering of sand and painted up to match most of my other scenery. I'm also planning to run some Wills "Granite Setts" along the harbour front to add a bit more interest to this area. The painted and flocked "headland" was original a standalone hill bought at a meet, which never quite looked right on the table. Therefore, I hacked it about a bit to fit this set-up - it will also be painted in to match the remainder of the board.

Looking forward to doing a bit more work on this at the weekend.

Lovely little setting, looking forward to seeing how you do the water.

[Mason]

Looking great so far, RMZ!
 

I am all for multi-purposing terrain to get as much use as possible.
Looking forward to watching this progress.

As for doing the water: Paper Napkins work really well (with the right pattern on it....no Winnie the Pooh!) and are dirt cheap.

Looks great

[anevilgiraffe]

liking that... and probably stealing it at some point... my buildings should work on a similar set up...

[Malamute]

To echo the others, it looks great

I like the offset angle for the harbour wall, it very much adds to the visuals. Can't wait to see the next stages.
