Terrain building, WIP

[Zaheer]

A few LAF'ers may have seen or even got hold of some of my beehive huts, and a few may even have seen my thread in the Medieval board where I posted photos of a new (and I think greatly improved) hut that I've recently finished and have available for sale.

This thread will be used to document WIP of the terrain peices which I am working on in a more serious way in preparation for starting a webstore or something similar. I am pretty terrible at remebering to take snaps halfway through a builds, so I hope that you won't mind too much if completed items occasionally appear here!
The new hut, I've gone over the master since taking this photo and before pouring silicon to clean up some of the bubbles.





Oh generous giver of hard cover; stone walls. Four individual pieces including 2 different right-angled corners.







Here is the beginnings of a rectangular structure, which will form a base structure which will eventually do double duty as an oratory based on buidlings in Skellig Michael and elsewhere, and the walls of a stone built dwelling with a thatched/turf roof.



C&C always welcome, thank you!

I haven't posted it up yet but your old thread inspired me to do some "stonework" of my own...

Very nice pieces Zaheer. The walls look great

I really like the stone wall with the rubble core  That would be proper for a variety of locations.

The building is great for biblical skirmish. Will you do more of them???

[Zaheer]

Thank you everyone, very flattering! For those who have expressed an interest in getting hold of one, send me a pm and we will sort something out. I am in Malta for the week but will be looking to get back on top of things after that.

NurgleHH I can cast to demand if thats what you mean, but I will most likely be making more drystone structures. Perhaps if you have requests you can get in touch with me via pm to talk about anything in particular thay you might have in mind.

I do seem to be having problems getting behind the concept of WIP threads, I've gone a long way beyond this photo since taking it, but it shows the oratory at around the halfway point and hopefully it stands up to this kind of extreme close up. At the same time I'm aware there's not a lot more to see except for more blocks! My intention is to make pieces for wargamers and also painters/modellers for who the hobby primarily consists of this kind of thing.



I hope to finish it in the next couple of days, and will be making it available at the start of next week all going well (and assuming it doesn't finally tip me over the edge!).

The quality of your work is outstanding!  I would love to know your technique for making the individual stone pieces.

I agree - a true inspiration.

I bet on plaster poured flat on plasticfilm and roughly cutted in shape while curing. The rest should be sanding and the usage of an iron brush for texturing!?
