Fantasy Gaming (7) - More Mordheim Scatter and First Warband

 We sat down for a marathon paint session the other night and managed to crack out a pretty significant amount of scatter terrain. This was all painted with craft paints for the most part and 3d printed from Hexengarde this time around. 

The walk ways are from printable scenery

 Rubble Piles

Barricades

Lampposts and Walkways. The lamposts are WIP still as I figure out what I wanna do with the lights themselves

Well, Town Notice Board. Also WIP as I decide what to do for the actual notices.

Cargo Piles, Lumber Piles

Sewers and a better shot of the side of the risers. These risers use a openlock clip system and are really sweet and modular.

Here you can see the system in detail

I set up a few shots just to see it all out at the same time.

I also managed to finish my first warband. These are mercenaries. The files are from reptilian overlords i believe and are pretty decent. 

I actually slapchopped the first guy probably over a year ago and never got around to the rest.

Fantasy Gaming (2) - First Test Building Done

 As mentioned in the original Fantasy Gaming post, there is a pretty long list of rulesets on my radar. One of the sort of "to-do" list items of my gaming and painting career as of late is to finally try Mordheim for example. I don't imagine it will be a ruleset I become obsessive over but as it does require quite a bit of terrain I figured it would make for a good project. 

I have about half a table worth of terrain printed so far. The buildings are a mix of Printable Scenery's Shadowfey Ruins and the Hexengarde range. This first building was one of the "scatter ruins" pieces from Hexengarde.

There are about 3 of us who are going to end up painting the whole board eventually so I kept the paint jobs incredibly basic. Subscribing to my usual "quality, quantity etc" line of thinking I figure that even though I could take this piece quite a bit further, it makes more sense to make it quick and easily replicatable, even for non hobbyists.

I primed in black, drybrushed gray over the stones, wet brushed on the burnt umber and unbleached titanium colors. painted on the metal bits and called it a day. 

I was a little hesitant to post this because I have no idea how soon were getting together to paint the rest of the stuff and it may be a while but because this building only took 33 minutes to paint and I could use a little more respite from the Dwarf project I wanted to crack this out and see how it looked. 

On the dwarf front. I have just half a unit of warriors and the copter left to paint from the original batch. However disaster struck yesterday. Like a moron I had been keeping the box of dwarves on the same bench as the printer. I guess it finally shook them loose and after picking up the pieces I was left with this

I have since reglued almost all of it back together. The bolt thrower is damaged and I havent tried to repair it yet. The king lost his arm and has been mended. Almost everything else was just regluing to bases thankfully. I had just stuck the figures directly into the wet vallejo putty which as you can see was not a strong enough bond at all.

Anyway, we're nearing the end of this first milestone with them and I'm looking forward to showing the "completed" force pretty soon.
