You should've backed everything up...

Back up if for girls. Real men just cry.

Oh and everything looks awesome. I am both shocked and awed by your speed.

Thanks chaps.... Most appreciated  :D

Converting Perry minis is always a pleasure  ;)

I've been thinking that I might also add White Walkers to the game - some sort of mash up of Perry and Mantic plastics. That said, they'd be quite a challenge to build into the rules for a balanced game. 

More soon.  :)

Have been spending the odd moments GSing the Bolton's leathers and have also finished painting the old, abandoned fort. Next steps with the four (so far) terrain tiles will be to add the foliage and am just waiting on a delivery of Gamers Grass tufts and moss. Somewhat annoyingly, and despite all corrective measures!, there's some warping but I'm hopeful that 'fuzzy' static grass will hide the join.

The fort 'stonework' has come out a treat.

Just keep that back brace handy when you move it ;)

Thanks chaps  :)

The bulk of the dirt will disappear under static grass, so it should like quite different when I next post images. Also, as well as the moss, I am also waiting on some ivy for the stonework.

Looking really good so far, I am sure once the growies are on it will be transformed once again.  :)

I agree.
 :D


And I don't mind admitting that that is my favourite technique for hiding bits that I am not happy with in my own builds.

Re: GoT: UD 9/11 the Bolton's progress
« Reply #89 on: 09 November 2015, 10:35:37 PM »
Thanks again  :) I've actually started another two 'road' tiles so I'll have a 3x2 to test the rules on. There'll be another 6 tiles in due course: 4 of river, 1 of river/bridge/road, and 1 of road with a farm built from stones robbed from the derelict fort.

I've also ordered a box of Frostgrave cultists for another project, and parts from that combined with Mantic Ghouls and Perry WotR plastics will make White Walkers.  Seeing as aside from fire they'll be pretty much indestructible, I guess there'll be a lot less of them than the other forces.

Anyways, progress with the Boltons: still at an early stage as there's polishing yet to do, then various bits of tidying up and adding of detail, but on the plus side they're now padded out with the bulk of their GS.
