This is how we roll

I was at my good friend's today working on some models (me on my space wolves, and him on his nurgelly gurgelly CSM army), and I just couldn't resist taking these photos:

The scenery used is a part of a HUGE project that should be finished in about a year, and it involves larger than standard (8'x5') game table, craploads of scenery, and about 20.000 points of models ripping at each other. The only rule is that only a fully painted army plays.

 

Here is a glimpse of the WiP table and buildings (the fat guy is me )

And if anyone wanted to know what fuels old wargamers, here is the answer:

Once we get some games under way I will make sure to update with battle reports ;)

that's really nice terrain with the wire and rusty bits.

in my group people tend to get lazy when it comes to painting buildings, but it really makes a difference for the atmosphere. i got the fortress of redemption last month and enjoyed playing planetstrike with it last weekend, fully painted with all the rusty floor. added some scrivelings on the walls where you can see that the fortress changed occupiers several times. and of course, bloody footprints here and there. it feels like the buildings can tell their own story then.

so i like what i see on your pics!

thanks for giving me an idea

 

I'm going to go in the basement and collect a bunch of random metal bits and put them out on the back deck, they should be rusted in a month! I guess living in a rainy state pays off once and for all!

it's an idea, yes! if you leave the metal bits in a bowl with saltwater it should corrode faster.

but for plastic parts, drybrushing the colour: macharion solar orange is perfect.

I want to actually try making a rust wash type thing, powder rust in a coffee grinder and mix with windex, experiment with ratios and such. Why not use the real thing?

 

 

and there is salt in the rain already, it is ocean water
