These are the very evil "Strawberry Jaffa Cult" a Breakaway (TM) faction.

"Splitters! This is indeed heresy!"

BTW, very nice work on the columns.  :-*

"Splitters! This is indeed heresy!"

Yes! Their evil knows no bounds!

Tee hee! I may have to do some of the "Mint Cult"

Anyway more stuff in closer detail and new stuff being bashed!

This stepped modular bit can be pushed on to the side of nearly any of my Temples.

They are made from Jenga Blocks and necklace beads superglued together.

This series of pictures for a smaller version of the above! Made from smaller Jenga Blocks I purchased several packs of from my local Poundland. (48 blocks in every pack and it takes 6 to do one set of steps) Paint them metallic and instant Techno-step set!
Again just add necklace beads for colour on your archaic steps.




The base of the figure is a 25mm square. But I'm not that bothered about the over-hang as the steps are really only a marker for access and set dressing when finished.

Thanks by the way for the encouragement :)

Good idea about the Jenga blocks. I must go into Poundland next time I venture near the big city!

Nice columns.
I am particularly impressed with the texture created by the tape.
Clever, simple, but VERY effective.

Here are the Small Jenga Steps in stages of paint and undergrowth added!

Stage 2 Really! This is after the blocks have been undercoated and given a coat of testor pot Java Bean. Then drybrushed roughly in a suitable lighter brown.


Stage 3! Drybrushed with another Testor Pot Sand. Very subtle aging I quite like.


Stage 4! Scatter material PVA'd in clumps.


The last stage can make figures quite unstable standing on such narrow steps, but as I said before they are really just markers for egress up and down.

Thanks for the comments.

Here are some of the otherworldly or just strange village buildings I slapped together!

I have quite a few of these smaller ones.



Not so many of the Medium and Big 5 Dome ones!




Again they have been sitting in a box for a while and the bases have warped a bit. But I'm bending them back and working on those hard edges.

The doorways are a bit small for a 28mm figure unless they crawl through them!

Made out of Dragon/Dinosaur egg packaging hard plastic and see through I found cheap in Works Publishing.

Nice work!  :-* Those structures have all kinds of possibilities.

Thanks! I like them myself and they have multiple uses. Lost Empire, Lost village sort of things!

I use them for my Animal men and lost tribe dwellings.

As always I feel more work is needed on them.

Here's some quite bad photos of the Massive Temple I can make out of some of my Jaffa Bits! o_o

Sorry the piccies are a bit out of focus and distant. :?













I could play with the layouts and add and subtract bits for hours!

Hope you get some ideas from it.

That looks awesome. I imagine that terrain would make for some fantastic games.
