Grymvayl update (Picture Heavy)
« on: October 08, 2014, 02:20:25 PM »
After trawling through the lead and plastic mountain under our stairs I realised that I had an awful lot of Fantasy stuff sitting there doing bugger all so time to do something with it. A few bits of scenery to start with I think. After seeing Masons amazing Upsheet Creek I decided to take the plunge and base my buildings (not something I would normally do)









(Sorry for the rubbish picture quality)

It is fun making a small 'scene' out of each building, isnt it?

I second these sentiments!  Very nice start!

LOOKIN' GOOD! Basing makes quite a difference both with minis & terrain; put a mini/building/whatever in its proper environment...or improper for shock value...& you've made your creation a narrative piece. Keep up the FINE WORK!

Nice start to your project. Looking forward to seeing more.
Tip. Try taking the pictures with the light from the window from the side or from behind you.

very nice, can't wait to see your figures
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

I particularly like the tower house. The backlighting gives a nice atmosphere to the photos.

The next piece of scenery...........trees





Been having a good think and have decided that my new fantasy land is going to be called "Grymvayl" (Grimvale). What do you think of the name?

Haven't had much time lately to get on with much so,I'm afraid,nothing new finished. Thought I'd post some WIP piccies though to keep myself motivated  :)

First up are a couple of resin buildings that I got off of Mason (thank you very much,mate. I love 'em)





Next a bit of market scenery



Some of the figures I will be using









And finally some artificial grass samples that will become fields



Cheers,
Steve
