				<title>WIP windmill</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I'm currently running a D&D campaign and the group is playing through the module "Curse of Strahd". One of the locations they will be going to is a windmill called Old Bone Grinder, home to a particularly nasty coven of hags. I haven't made any scenery for a while and I wanted to use some of the supplies I have had sitting around ( mostly so I can justify not throwing them out), so I decided to build a windmill to represent Old Bone Grinder. Here are a few shots of the first mockup I had for the main structure:<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/858739-windmill%20WIP%201.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/2/20/858739_sm-windmill%20WIP%201.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/858740-windmill%20WIP%202.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/2/20/858740_sm-windmill%20WIP%202.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <br /> I decided that the overall size was too big, so I reduced all sides a bit, and came up with something quite a bit slimmer. heres the main build after down sizing and putting on the stone texture (Sorry for the side ways pic, I rotated them before uploading, but then they were sideways again...D'oh!)<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/858744-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/2/20/858744_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <br /> Heres a couple of shots with the whole build, before washes, details, and putting fabric on the sails.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/859145-Terrain%2C%20Windmill.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/2/22/859145_sm-Terrain%2C%20Windmill.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/859141-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/2/22/859141_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> Heres the stone work after a wash with some very watered down black paint to bring out the details. I went back over this wash with a dry brush of lighter grey to tie it all together<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/859306-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/2/23/859306_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/859305-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/2/23/859305_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> I actually finished the build for this last weekend, but I haven't had a chance to take pics of the finished product yet. I will take some and add them ASAP! As always, comments and criticism welcome and appreciated!]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Great. <img src="/s/i/a/c944477abc92c1c101da485e07ff06d8.gif" border="0"> An especially impressive job on the sails. I'm intrigued to see how they look with the fabric.<br /> <br /> What's the stone texture? Textured plasticard, or hand-made?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Thanks Vermis! The stone texture is done by hand. Its blue insulation foam that I took an old dead ball point pen to and lightly pressed to indent enough to create the look of field stone. Its a slightly time consuming technique, but you can do while watching tv or whatever and it usually turn out pretty well.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Thanks y'all! Glad you like. I finally got around to getting some pics of the finished product the other night, so here they are:<br /> <br /> The first shot is one of the vanes as the napkins I used for cloth were drying.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861329-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861329_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />  <br /> <br /> The next couple are as it sits on my display cabinet, with my vampire counts army in front. I think it  fits the undead aesthetic well:<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861328-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861328_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861327-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861327_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <br /> And last but not least a few shots of the mill with some detail shots:<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861325-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861325_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861324-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861324_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861320-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861320_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861321-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861321_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/861322-.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2017/3/3/861322_sm-.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <br /> So thats old bone grinder! Hope you guys enjoyed the process. I may go back at some point and paint some of the details like the bricks above the windows a different color to give it some contrast. I also thought of adding a balcony at the top around the sides and the back, so If I do I'll update this thread as I go. Thanks for the comments!]]></description>
