I think that I am really starting to get the hang of this terrain making thing. I finished a large hill model over the weekend and embellished the fish tank terrain pieces that I had bought at the pet supply store,
Here is a picture of the newest terrain piece (on the right) overlooking an oasis piece that I made last week. I had some palm trees, but moved them out of the way when I snapped the picture.
Same as the previous picture, but from a higher perspective. |
The long view of the table, getting ready to fight the battle of Abu Kru. |
The Camels Are Coming, Tra La Tra La. I think that the stands of Acacia Trees look the part for Sudan. |
Some of the camels are deployed as flankers to deter or trip an ambush. |
The Heliograph team keeps an eye on the progress of the Desert Column as it marches towards the Nile River. |
A close up view of the Heliograph unit. They look quite at home on the top of their new residence. |
My work in progress includes several 15-inch long sections of "desert wadi" modules. I am waiting for the wall board paste to dry before applying the final dry brushing technique, so these should be ready to show within several days.
Nice!
ReplyDeleteRock on ! Super
ReplyDeleteI'm curious where you're getting these. I've considered fish-tank terrain (and used grasses, etc for jungle) but usually find sunken ships and out-of-scale-and-period buildings.
ReplyDeleteInterested to see the Nile figures as I have been reading several of Mike Snook's books on the campaigns.
