What they all said.

[Hammers]

lovely. Did you spray paint board and buildings?

[abbot_amaury]

Thanks again, guys 

... Could we have more pictures?

There are three more detail pics on my site here. I shot the board photos in my bedroom. I think my girlfriend would kill me if I do this again to soon...  (God, I am such a nerd! Taking wargaming-photos in the bedroom...).

Did you spray paint board and buildings?

I used some brown spray paint from the crafts shop as a primer. After that the board was painted/brushed with acrylics.

Looks absolutely outstanding! It's certainly going to be an inspiration for when I do some of my own Egyptian Pulp terrain.

It's a [wiki=Royal_Aircraft_Factory_S.E.5a]Royal  Aircraft Factory S.E.5a[/wiki]. The model is from Revell (1:48):

For further inspiration a highly recommend the paintings of [wiki=David_Roberts_(painter)]David Roberts[/wiki]. Got me a cheap picture book a few years ago: great stuff!

I have been researching Egypt for Pulp too.  The following may also be of interest:

Couldn't say more than hasn't already been said, so only so much:
Marvelous terrain from a master painter and modeller!

Incredible! Great attention to detail, great colors, very naturalistic.

I must say I do not like these sort of posts here.
Showing off pictures of one's terrain...can't you just show something that looks not that good, so I don't need to try and do something like that myself...aargh
Now I have to go and visit an aquarium store and spend money and it's all your fault
 

(sh...it looks soo coool)

I'm a bit late joining the party, but WHOA!!! That board is very very nice!

How did you create the rock faces on either side of the valley? I love the way they look.

I already ordered that piece - and some other Egyptian stuff from the same site....

It is an absolutely marvellous Masterpiece !
I like the way you´ve modelled the terrain, so it isn´t that flat but has a "multi-layer" (is it the right term ?!) appearance.
But what I really really like is the colour of it all. It´s a very different colour setting than all other desert landscape I´ve ever seen (or made by myself  ). It remembers me to all the old cinemascope movies with their extraordinary swelling scenes *sigh*.....
The colours of the rocks and Buildings are different...usually they´re made in a sand- oder brown-like-colour.
I like your way very much.
