Starting some pulp terrain... WIP
« on: 21 January 2014, 07:07:41 AM »
So I just started this project over the weekend.... Some adobe/sandstone buildings and tents...  Nothings painted yet and the unfinished one on the left is going to be a dice tower...  Not sure how much free time I'm going to have, but thought I'd share my progress on the board...

That looks like it's going to be some pretty cool terrain! I look forward to seeing it develop. Good start to your stay with us!

And congratulations also on having chosen a very silly username!

Looking really good, keep posting your progress. I'd like to know how you made those tents?

Is that glue soaked paper towel laid over a framework for the tents? It looks quite effective. Nice use of cardboard for the buildings as well!

Welcome! The terrain's off to a good start. I like the tents.

Thanks!  The tents are tissue and glue...  I still need to make some entrance flaps for them and paint em up...  Just need to get some more free time...

Also picked up some matchbox cars on Ebay...  I think they'll fit in well...

It's coming together very nicely. What are you using for the texture?

Just sprinkled sand on watered down PVA...  Seems like two coats works best...

Also thought I'd try for some tile roofs...

First couple pieces painted...  Need to finish the walkways and add some shades or banners from the poles...

Like the colours on the buildings.

Are the tents built over a wire frame and if so did you solder it together.

Looking forward to seeing the corrugated roof tiles.
 All the best
