Capture Pegasus Bridge

Some time ago I purchased a set of WWII 3d print terrain files, which included a file for Pegasus bridge... So I printed it up. Having printed it up I then had to build a river for is to span, and I made this in matching terrain tiles to my existing modular wargames table. There were a few dramas with this having to manage some leaking resin, but I managed to rescue it and the boards were finally ready. I also had to get some more buildings painted up, again that I had printed out some time ago, including cafe...

Durins Causeway

Thought I would share a link to one of my more popular posts on the Hobby blog I used to make... Durins Causeway from the film The Fellowship of the Ring...

Cheers

The Iron Golems

The Iron Golems

I recently finished the Iron Golems from the Warcry core starter set. Pleased to say that’s the complete boxed set assembled and painted. :)   I painted the models using contrast paints for the skin, going with space wolves grey to depict the unusual skin tone the chaos raiders have living in the chaos ash wastes.   For the armour I used a base of Retributor Gold, over which I applied Flesh Tearers Red Contrast paint. Once dry I shade washed the red armour in Agrax Earthshade Gloss.  I’m pleased with the result and plan to try something similar to...
