Slowish progress since the weekend as I have for some reason found the Hessian grenadiers I am painting a little tiresome ? Not sure why but I am at least working my way through. Of course it is easy to get distracted as I have an almost unlimited pile of stuff to paint.
So I decided to pick up some terrain for a change. These are a mix of Battlescale, Hovels and unknown manufacturers. All 10 mm for my SYW games nice buildings which work well together at this scale.
It is unlikely they will appear all together my plan is to build some bases and will work on the idea of 1, 2 or 3 buildings on a base depending on the size of the village/settlement
Some more more rural buildings
Town buildings
Lots more planned for the next few weeks gaming and painting 👍
Nice assortment of buildings, Matt! Having too much to paint can prompt indecision. The bigger The Lead Pile, the worse this can become. Beautiful view of the meadow and mountains.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jon….we love that little focus to keep us going, but it helps me when I can swop projects when one is just dragging slightly.
DeleteThe buildings came out well,good looking terrain always enhances a game.
ReplyDeleteHow did you get the local talent lined up so nicely in the last photo?
Thank you..I guess I do like a bit of terrain so I try to make it look nice. The local fauna were fairly happy to pose 👍
DeleteReally like the Battlescale stuff, I have never had anything from them with air bubbles etc.
ReplyDeleteDid you do Photoshop type stuff with the landscape shot? Or is that out of camera? It is very appealing.
Thanks Norm, very happy with the buildings so far, and they paint up nicely. The photo is just straight but it was using my wife’s fancy phone.
DeleteA nice assortment of buildings
ReplyDeleteThanks Neil 👍
DeleteNice buildings but in the end I went down the 6mm route for use with my 10mm figures, which work nicely. I can get more buildings on a base to in comparison to 10mm one and they give a nice impression of a BUA. All of them I have removable from the BUA base to try and avoid bases on roof tops.
ReplyDeleteNice shot of the countryside too:)
Thanks yes I thought hard about the 6mm route, in. Fact I already have quite a collecition of 6 mm although these are eastern front buildings. I think I am heading for 1 2 or 3 buildings representing a BUA moveable within the area so the figures can be accommodated. We’ll see when I get them on the table
DeleteNice little buildings for your diddy chaps there Matt. Is that snow still on the hills in your sheepograph?
ReplyDeleteThanks David…yes a little snow left at the weekend from the weekend before, but it has warmed up again so not much left now !
DeleteBeautiful looking building!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal
DeleteI love those buildings. what's a large lead pile!
ReplyDeleteThank you, that is a question for the WSS survey I think. But I am not sure I want to admit in this open space 😱like admitting to being an addict. I think if I painted for quite a long time at my current rate I wouldn’t run out for a good while ! Why don’t you go first !
DeleteLovely work on these buildings Matt...
ReplyDeleteAll the best. Aly
Thanks Aly….simply painting really and a little rough dry brushing !
DeleteFine looking real estate and scenic shot there Matt.
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil😀
DeleteGreat looking terrain in 10mm, Matt!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean 👍
DeleteI find that Painting some terrain is a nice change of pace from miniatures. Nice job on the buildings. 😐
ReplyDeleteNice looking buildings and lovely full scale terrain!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Great work on the buildings, spending time on scenery is worth it!
