Hopefully Viktor_von_Domm is still active on Dakka and visiting my blog. I haven't forgotten his request to see more terrain to be worked on. I'm going to be trying to get as much of my old scratch-built terrain painted up as I can, over the next few days.

Up first, I'm calling these Imperial buildings finished. They have sat primed and not worked on for close to 10 years (it's that way for most of my terrain) I realized that I never made the roofs for the other three. At some point I should build those.


WIP


I've gotten a little paint on my three greater daemons of Nurgle.


Up next, I'm planning to work on my plethora of craters.

I was working on my craters, today. All 25 of them. I was base coating them, gluing on sand, and then spraying a PVA hard coat on top. I nearly finished all of them, but ran out of sunlight, so I have 4 that won't dry and another 4 that haven't been sprayed. Close to 10 years ago, I made them all in a variety of ways. Some have a base of foam core, some water jug plastic, and some cardboard. They where usually built up with piece of foam core, and them covered with a smear of Spackle/filler. I tested out different kinds of Spackle as well.
Here is a progress picture from late morning.

I have finished all 25 of my craters


I have also finished my 4 desert rock spires, that have been sitting as green insulation foam "rocks" for about 9 years. I originally made them for use in GorkaMorka. I don't know if the picture shows it well, but I am proud of the painting on the two more triangular rocks.


They're not great, but I am also calling my Ork junk/rubble barricades done.


All of this terrain can be seen in the terrain picture on page 1 of my blog. They haven't really been touched much since.

That's a lot of terrain, you can fill more than one table with that! Great results.

Loving the terrain results. Thanks for the inspiration for the craters - I need to do some for my trench crusade board and I continually need a reminder to do them (For some reason I REALLY don't like prepping them.)

@muette: Thanks, muette I hope I can get some games in with them.

@blockade23: Thanks I'm happy to give inspiration. My craters were made a lot of different ways, out of different materials. Most of what I did was following the Terrain Tutor on YouTube:

I disagree with your assessment of the barricades as not great! The rock spires are an awesome fit for Gorkamorka - they almost scream Durotar! to me.

Lovely terrain burst going on here. Funny how projects can lay dormant and then one day you get more done in a few hours than you have in years.

Thanks for sharing!
