the magnetic primer I applied on the board to have movable elements.

I never realized anything like this existed. This could be one of the best ideas EVER!

I had toyed with the idea of using gravel or grass to denote a grid. I can't wait to see how that works out. Also the straight slopes on your road are a good analog to the rooftops I am considering. I figured that a gradual increase in elevation over a couple inches would be flat enough for models, but hadn't got around to testing.

What is the resin pour for? Water at the base of the cliffs / edge of the beach?

Exactly that. It will go up about an inch in height.

I hope this was a productive weekend, Tonio, time is almost up

I'd say it was, he has been sending me some nice shots

Yes, as Cyp mentions, there was progress, and a lot of it. But editing and posting those pics takes too much time for the few days/hours I have left. I might be able to post some tonight, and I'll come back after Templecon and post the rest of the wip.

I'm really glad that I'm not the only one that has deadlines sneak up on them.

Looking forward to seeing the pics after the fact then, Tonio

They have pics of the finished board on their Facebook page. It does indeed look amazing!

So is it safe to say we now know what the Ulbane Monastary looks like?

Back from Templecon! Here are some pics of the board I took. I'll go thought my backlog of wip in the following days.

Glad I got to finally meet the man behind the boards!

Simply amazing work, Tonio. The board turned out awesome! Just everything about it.... spot on perfect!

A brilliant idea using magnetic paint underneath. I'll have to keep that in mind if/when I make my attempt at a board.

Those pics are great! I saw a few from the event, but really well done Tonio. The road to the church really makes it

It's been a while since I've worked on anything OTLG related, but I got my 2nd KS package last week, and could not wait to start painting the Mandragora. I don't have much to show right now, just a quick airbrush priming and zenithal basecoat. More to come soon.

Nice start. Can't wait to get in my own Mandragora, but I expect it'll be awhile since I backed at Sergeant level and added on more stuff.

Looks promising, Tonio!

I'm looking forward to getting my stuff in too, some of the models turned out fantastic!

Can't wait to see what ya do with that Mandragora

That model wasn't supposed to take that long to paint, but with a new baby who showed up a little early, hobby time has been scarce lately. I was at least able to paint a bit today. The "skin" is done, as well the face plate. The rest is just some colour blocking to see if I like the multiple colours of leave.

Very cool looking to me

Looking good!

Also grats on the baby!

That faceplate and green "skin" are fantastic! And second the congrats

Thanks everyone.

A bit more work, leaves all done. Just the blade of the spear and the base left to do.

That looks really, really sharp, Tonio. Very well done!

Very nice! I love the mask.

Congrats on the sprog!

And done! Really fun mini to paint.

I'd comment, but I already did on the Facebook group.

Love the finished product Tonio, awesome job!

Final pic of the Mandragora. It's at the same painted status than last picture, just done in a nicer photo setup.

Did you touch up the surroundings in photoshop, or is that just the pic straight from a lightbox?

I pledged for this to use as a lightbox, which was projected for delivery last month, but likely won't be showing up for a little bit:

I need a solution soon, so any tips / thoughts on your photo setup would be appreciated!

^seconded- I could totally use a new photo setup, myself!

I really like how that Mandragora looks. Ace job on the paint!
