Walls of Troy project

[Marine0846]

Another great piece.
Love all you have done so far.

This really is beyond awesome. It puts my own efforts with Trojan buildings completely to shame.

If you end up casting these I would love to get my hands on some.

Great attention to detail.

Cool Wargods poster you got there

What an incredible work!

The second building (the largest of the 3 planned) is now done.  This one is a 2-story, with 2 entrances.  I made the door and shutters separate, saving myself a bit of sculpting time by casting them as separate pieces.  This will also mean that (in theory) I can have some of the windows open if I choose to.



Here is a picture of the 2 finished buildings together.  The idea with these is to be able to stick them together in various ways, making new buildings for a large-ish town. 



Some progress on the casting front for the walls - I've handed them over to a company that can make resin molds, and they are attempting to make molds of them now - hopefully all goes well!  I'll update with more info as soon as I get it!

 Great work on these two buildings Chris.Looks like the Olympus book will have some great looking terrain in it too now.

Thanks!  That's the plan! After spending months and months sculpting a whole army of Trojans, it just seemed like a good idea to make them a place to live!

Top work sir. Once painted and cast you'll have an impressive city.

 Does this mean we will see Amazon,Athenian and Corinthian buildings soon too then .

Chris,... er Herr Vongoosewink, you really have done outstanding work on your Troy project. Can't wait to see how everything progresses onto the tabletop. Two "Thumbs Up".

[GamesPoet]

Looking wonderful!

[tancrede]

You have some great modelling skills, and the result is really wonderful !

At last, the final building is done - late last night I finished up the little 'shed'!

Now that all three of these are done, I played around with them and took a few pictures, showing how they can be arranged in different ways, to make unique Trojan houses.  Some of the doors and window blinds are missing, as they are a separate piece and I only made one original.  Seeing them arranged together, I am starting to like them - I think these might also be appropriate for Minoans and Mycenaeans too, even swords & sorcery settings like Conan.

Here are my experiments in Feng Shui:

[Lost Egg]

Awesome. I'm looking forward seeing these painted up (once cast).

[Argonor]

Awesome. I'm looking forward tossing these painted up (once cast).

That'd be a shame, methinks
