I think I've just built lots of terrain over the years, I'm not shy about giving it away/selling it/binning it as I get better... to make room for new stuff.

Stage 2 of the previous tutorial post updated. I'll start painting this weekend all going to plan!

Do you think that foamcore with the paper removed would be a suitable replacement for the 5mm dense polystyrene? I simply have not found a North American source for the stuff. I have also never heard of kappa foam before.

Seconded! Also thanks for posting some of your steps M.O.T.N. I seem to lack the creative eye at piecing stuff together.

Yes. Kapa, only 1x P, looks to be a denser version of the standard foam board and a slight color variance.
Do a Google search for "Kapa foamboard" will result in some nice info.

Why haven't I commented on this awesome thread yet? Fanatastic work - bravo!

Thanks all.

Kappa foam in the UK - http://modelshop.co.uk/Shop/Raw-Materials/Foamboard/

To be honest normal foamboard does the same thing, just not as sharp with the detail.

I know it' not recommended we name our warband members, on account of them being wiped out my magicians and such... but after doing the bulk of my building and sculpting, I really want to!

I'm trying hard to focus on two themed warbands at the moment, whilst my imagination runs rampant thinking about how I could keep building and make unit based skirmish forces too....

I have the Frostgrave soldiers, Cultists and also bought a Fireforge Teutonic infantry set to supply me with lots of parts. There's a couple of statuesque miniatures female heads in there and also some old warhammer empire regiment parts too (the perry twins sculpts, one of my all time favorite kits)

Here's my Sigilist warband.

...and a Necromancer warband.

Impressive conversion work. They look great. Thanks for sharing

Trying to get to grips with Paintshop pro 8 and knocked up a draft painting tutorial. Manipulation of the white undercoat stage failed me, but when I do a proper version with commentary I'll fix it.

Very nice conversion work. Adding GS chainmail to a cultist body is a brilliant idea. Consider it stolen.

Here's my weekends painting endeavors. I've taken step by step photographs for all 4 of these miniatures as I went along, including the paint's used, for a total of 40 images!

Not a completely altruistic move... it will come in handy as a reference for when I come back to paint more in the future!

They're brilliant - bravo!

Very good stuff going on here - loads of inspiration!

Great minies. Especially the necromancer templar.
