I am going to go over the trail . Thing is , I cant find a store that sells ink on a reasonable price . I would settle for 5,000 - 9,000 crowns(about 39 - 50 bucks due to economy ..) but the cheapest my dad could find was for 12,000 crowns(about 95 bucks) for a pot thats the size of around 5 GW ink bottles ! My FLGS does'nt sell GW Inks , sadly . Maybe if I paint ofer the trail i got now and then repaint it using multiable washes , yet making a trail ? If that would work out , what wash do you recommend ? Im thinking a mix of sepia/baal red.


Like I said, cheapest option is to get a ratty old brush you don't need anymore, bust open a red pen, and use the ink from that. It's very slow drying and it's got mad fumes (Work outside/with an open widow) but for blood, it's the best thing I've every used. It dries darker than most inks, it stays glossy without being reflective like inks, if that makes sense, and it doesn't run, so it's easy to control. Again, just don't do it indoors without an open window nearby.

Lol , always love getting someones name/username right And an E-Cookie certainly wont hurt me Ok , but how do i get the PVA glue off ? I hardly think I can just scrape it off . Ah well , if i dont get it off then let this be my lesson . Last time using PVA glue for blood pools Check lX


PVA glue can be chipped off with a screwdriver easily enough. You'll have to go back over that spot and rebase/repaint it, but that's how you improve

If it won't come off, you can always rebase over the worst of it.


Thanks But , woah ! That looks to big . I was thinking just four or five shacks seperated , onlu enough room for a bed , weaponary and a grot cage maybe ?

Anyways , I want to do the graveyard first .

Im thinking to use foam to cut out the walls around . Then have a gate on each side . Badly cut out Gravestones and crosses spreaded out and a walking bath . Maybe a tool shack/house somewhere were it would be usefull for LOS blockage ?


I just meant to use that as a referance for construction styles, but yea it is pretty huge

As far as the graveyard: There are likely some online sites that sell resin gravestones. As well, checking Bitz sites for the balcony walls from the Cities of Death buildings is a good idea. You should also ask the staff at your FLGS if they know anywhere you can buy plasticard in town. These guys will always know about any shops nearby.

Yeah, Bigtoof is a big project, but the individual houses are kinda small. The original template is a two story, three room building. It's pretty easy to work with. Four small shacks don't really call for a template, but it's here is you want it.
