About Me

My photo
London, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
A mythical beast - a female wargamer! I got back into wargaming in the summer of 2011 after a very, very long break and haven't looked back since. I must admit that I seem to be more of a painter/collector than a gamer, but do hope to correct that at some point in the near future. My gaming interests span the ages, from the "Biblical" era all the way through to the far future. I enjoy games of all sizes, from a handful of figures up to major battles (see my megalomaniacally sized Choson Korean and Russian Seven Years War armies).

Finished: 28mm Adobe Buildings

I say "finished", although I might just go back over the jutting-out timbers with a dark brown wash. But here they are:







These buildings are by Blotz. The plastering on the exterior walls definitely improved them. Most of the painting was done with the airbrush, with just the wood and the earth rim painted by brush.

I also got some figures primed today:



...and have been prepping some other models - my Warlord Games order arrived today.

    Very nice. I always seem to forget that buildings should have proper interiors too.

    Hi Tamsin,
    The stuff looks great. Think twice before going too dark brown with he roof timbers. They would be exposed to the sun and start to "gray out" which can be effected by drybrushing with gray. However, it is strictly a matter of taste. Keep up the good work.

    @ L'Empereur - thanks! MDf kits are definitely designed for "improving" :)

    @ Skully - cheers! :)

    @ Jerry - thanks! The wash will just be to take it back a bit more towards brown. They were painted dark brown and dry-brushed grey originally, but then got caught with the spray when I decied to add a white highlight to the walls. :)
