Time for a little thread necromancy.



Instead of knocking out LPL entries I spent my spring break week working on the "Exotic Locations" sets I acquired from Sally 4th's Indiegogo campaign. I didn't have any gameable interiors for the North African setting so I decided to try the modular MDF route. Overall, the sections went together well and I think I can squeeze this stuff into sci-fi too. The exteriors are textured with the same "Phipps Method" I used on the other buildings in the thread. 







I picked up all the set dressings (two of the museum) as well as some props, and they are taking quite a while to get finished. I almost have the full museum set done and hope to be posting some better pics shortly. With the addition of the souk tables and stands I think my market will double in size...
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

As many have said before, 'Fantastic stuff' I am very envious. I too have been tempted by the set dressings from Sally Forth, maybe I will weaken & purchase soon.

Dr. Mathias

This is extraordinary work.  Stunning.  I just can’t get over how rich it looks, from all angles, just by adding those little details.  I am in awe.
