More Warhammer Village

So this is the Chapel so far, most of the way there at least. More detail work to be done and more weathering of course.

I tried to be different with the stone work here, washing with sepia inks instead of black inks. I lind of like that it is not the predictable (for my style at least) drab gray stone work. It looks like it could be limestone or something.

The torches look alright, but I wish I could make them look brighter somehow....

What do you think?

My friend and team mate had the Warhammer villiage and I asked him could I assemble it and paint it. I can not remember when that was for sure, but there was snow and ice on the ground, so needless to say it is hi time I get it done.

I started painting with a white primer, then preshaded all of the towers and buildings with Tamiya Neutral Grey XF-53. Then I moves on to base coating the white buildings with a light spraying of Tamiya Flat WHite XF-2, and various colours for the slate roofs and also for the red- tiled roofs.

Team battles

The rules are simple-

One team, two players. One HQ, minimum one troops choice. 1Kpts each General.

So I am Blood Angels and teamed up with Space Wolves, and we have been pretty happy thus far.

I am making a team themed display board for our armies. I am starting today, and I will try and update here regularly. The reason is this is a series of team games based on all aspects of the hobby. We did well in the two other categories, second in generalship and first in sportsmanship, but lost on one merit- painting and theme. So. it is up to me to get to work. And I shall- starting today.

So watch for updates and give me feedback.

Thanks!

WIP for today

I have gained some ground on the many projects I have in the shop at the moment, but what I really need to do is just sit and paint paint paint! I have some terrain I am going to paint up this afternoon as well as some airbrush work on the Wave Serpent. Maybe I will take some photos and put up on here. Anyone have any advice on getting good close up pics of miniatures with a point-and-shoot camera? Any advice anyone has would be helpful, my little digicam is not that great for taking pics of minis it seems....
