SETTING THE SCENE terrain book

Monday, 16 May 2022

WIP 10 for my ongoing project.


 I have made some bases for the buildings that I did in the last post, plus an allotment, more hills, stream, railway embankment, wheatfields, 15ft fencing, gates, slit trenches, and some outhouses.






 










A bit of luxury, outdoor loos, built like a brick sh*thouse. These make good practice for trying out textures and painting before working on your main model. 

Railway embankment.


Nine wheatfields.



A couple of low hills.



15ft of fencing, plus gates, and slit trenches.





Having previously made river and canal sections, I decided to make some stream pieces. I have included a couple of sections that widen to join up with my river or marsh.





A couple of pictures with 28mm figures and vehicles on the table.











 
28mm figure for scale next to stream.



  

I may give the terrain making a break and actually paint up some miniatures for the next post as it has been a year since I picked up a figure brush.

 As usual, the link for buying volume 3 or putting your name on the waiting list for a reprint of volume 1 or 2 of Setting the Scene, then please contact Steve at stevelampon@yahoo.co.uk

Cheers,
Pat.

    1. Thanks Matt. Storage is always the problem with terrain, luckily I sell it on occasionally to make room for the next project.

  5. Lots of great terrain being showcased here. Nice job! ๐Ÿ˜€Are the bases specific to certain buildings or can you mix and match as you fancy?

    1. Thanks Stew. These bases are specific to the buildings due to their shape but I will be making some generic bases to slot up against the rear of buildings.

  6. Cracking work there Pat. One reason I moved away from 28mm was the storage issue for terrain, talk less of figures. Even in 10mm it is an issue, mainly due to the mass of unpainted figures dotted around the house!

    1. Thanks Steve, and for some reason as wargamers we still keep adding to the pile.

  11. Whilst you never disappoint with your amazing terrain displays here Pat, it's your water effects in this post that stand out the most, so realistic and the modular option really is clever.

  12. Thanks Dai, I used a different method for the stream than what I used on my river and canal but I am happy with the end result.
