Working up my 20mm ruined city boards at present for use in the osprey books and for games this winter. My aim is to fill a 6 x 4 table with these pieces for my Force-on-Force Arnhem campaign. These will also be seen in the Guild Big Game this August. We will have four tables, with 700 20mm figures and 300+ vehicles slugging it out in Cold War Europe!

Anyway, here is whats done so far with a few sections still to come.

Incredible stuff - would be awesome if you could perhaps post up a tutorial or step by step. I would love to know how to do some of this, especially the scenic basing techniques that can be transferred to other games systems.

**duncana**

That looks really good.

I would also be interested in knowing how you did it -- in my case I am more interested in how you painted the buildings.

**Big P**

Yup, not a problem as Im doing a tutorial on both steps for another forum so I will post it here as well.

**Anshal**

Oh lord, now I am jealous. This is very good work, how ddi you achive the amazing level of details on the buildings. Keep it up and do give us a tutorial

**Inquisitor Lord Bane**

I work for Ambush Alley Games, writing and painting mainly, and Osprey have teamed up with us to release a set of Modern Warfare wargame rules next year and also a set of Sci-Fi rules.

Im doing the pics for the books... Lots of wargames eye candy.
