Marshal Vespasian Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Hi, So I am basing my 30k imperial fists on stone tiles because I envision them defending a decorative court of the imperial palace during the siege of terra. To add a bit to my bases I wanted some decorative pillars or columns. Maybe some archs or decorative railings. Does someone have a good idea how to craft stuff like that or where to source it? I mainly want these things for my dreadnought bases amd the like. For infantry Im cool with mud and some tiles.

ranulf the revenant Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 ...weirdly enough the sprue on which puppetswar-bits come look quite pillarish, especially if they would be lying down. They're not perfect of course, just something that came to mind...

Jukkiz Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Sprues are good material for rebar and other things, like railings Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363355-looking-for-ideas-for-pillars/#findComment-5510322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tichinde Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 cake tier pillar things are always good, cut them up and plug holes with greenstuff or polyfilla and its good to go. there are also a lot of pillars in the new sector imperialis terrain that can be used as base decoration.

Fajita Fan Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I feel like you could cut apart something like this to have base material for several bases. https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Ribbon-EE-1731-Exotic-Environments/dp/B077BSG7XN/ref=sr_1_18?dchild=1&keywords=columns&qid=1587497414&s=pet-supplies&sr=1-18&swrs=E9C1AB124C486430C7CD6F23256A634E&th=1 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363355-looking-for-ideas-for-pillars/#findComment-5510372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
old git Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Sticking with GW, the Azyrite Ruins (spelling?) look pretty good, with some nice ruined arches plus smaller ruined pieces.

Elzender Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Anvil industries has some decorations like that: https://anvilindustry.co.uk/anvil-gaming-bases#/pageSize=6&viewMode=grid&orderBy=0 By the end of the page they have a set of gothic ruins decorations and a set of broken columns, it might be worth giving them a look.
