So the idea is very simple and going to make a custom Pitch for the tournament in July for my orc team to play on, and thought if any of you guys had some ideas.

I like the idea of making a pitch that would be in a town in the warhammer world something like the one in the computer game, I also want to make it very rundown looking maybe with the idea of it was good in its day.

So this project is well underway and I'm very happy with the results so far although I'm going to change a few things which you will see in good time. From the very start, I wanted the pitch to come across tired used and abused , over a long time with all the little details adding character to the overall look.










I am also considering getting http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat1300180&prodId=prod1095517 as I feed this scenery would definitely work well incorporated with the pitch although £40 is a bit expensive considering the project so far as cost about £10 ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1632168.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1632168.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1632190.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1632190.page GMT

I think you can see by the picture I've decided that the original layout was not very feasible so the dugout and re-roll have been separated which overall makes the pitch more playable whilst playing




I have also started work on a little extra add-ons etc tables benches for the dugouts from a old hero quest game which I had lying around, I don't think they look too bad.

Just a quick update so recently today, started painting the pitch and overall I'm quite pleased with the results. Although I am already noticing a few things I would do different if I was doing it a game namely painting the whole pitch green before putting on the tile spacers for a start would save lot of my time.

That's the thing when doing projects like this it's not about enjoying what you're necessarily doing it's the finished result which I'm working to, and anything that can save time is a real advantage.

The white dots is textured paint as I was not happy with some areas this to take some more time paint in the them black, another lesson learned.





Also the white lines of the pitch markings I have decided to simply paint the tile spacers as it seems to work quite well, but time will tell if this affect will work overall.

The stone areas will be painted Grey and then highlighted with the blue ink wash a little more work to do to get them just right.



I've also done a sample of static grass to see what way it will look when finished and I'm quite pleased although the Earth areas obviously need highlighted more which goes without saying. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1641142.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1641142.page GMT
Considering I still have my team to paint. :no:










You can start to see that the lines being painted white as things are starting to come together


You can probably see the black and white areas on the pitch which in time are going to become trapdoors with wooden shutters as I thought it would be quite fun.

wOOt.

Loving it so far.
A freind of mine did this too but less elabourate. (he didn't have as much detail or proper dugouts)

I play Chaos myself ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1648726.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1648726.page GMT
Almost makes me want to break out the old dwarf team (i had to get the white dwarf in to some sort of team considering i play 40k).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1650170.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/298302/1650170.page GMT
You're doing this. In this country. Outside?
Have you look upwards lately? Only England's weather can be described with a colour.
Grey. Occasionally we get a bit of blue, but with a hint of grey.

Dude, keep that board inside, don't want all the grey to mess it up.

Awesome work by the way
