My first attempt at making terrain. I just used some random crap around the house.

I primed it last night, but did not take a picture of it. I will do that once I get home.

Update on the terrain. Just have to add grass and what not.

The biggest flaw isn't the lack of basing (which will soon be remedied, I know) or rudimentary paintjob - it's the fact that all of the recycled elements are very common objects and immediately recognizable as such. Soda can storage tanks and flexible drinking straw pipe bends are terrain staples, but a bit more effort to mask/blend the donor parts into a believable piece of terrain will greatly improve future pieces.

Apart from this sound advice, which I completely agree with, you have the beginings of what could be described as talent. Keep it up, love to see more in the future, especially if you can take oadie's CC to heart.

I finished up the terrain. Cut out the larger tower and it seemed to big, at least for me.
