Title: Warbases Buildings Post by: EvilGinger on 03 December 2012, 17:38:55 I received the first of my laser cut MDF buildings from Warbases who I had previously surprisingly enough just used for bases last week & given that it was rather too cold to do any thing else I constructed it & made a start at painting it yesterday.
The building I got was the Saxon watch tower which is a good likeness for a late Roman Burgi type tower & so ideal for Dux Brittanarium which has a scenario requiring one. It goes together easily with a little white wood glue & requires the minimum of painting I just painted the walls to give the impression of a rendered brick or Wattle & daub walls & stained the exposed wood work using army painter wash to darken them & even out the tone of the fine laser cut parts. http://www.warbases.co.uk/#/dark-ages/4566376791 (http://www.warbases.co.uk/#/dark-ages/4566376791) I did I own stick the roof in place & I will be adding some detail of thatch using milliput as you can see from the illustration the roof is just two shaped bits of MDF Well worth the modest price & I will be increasing my stock of buildings with a few more of these. >:DGinger Title: Re: Warbases Buildings Post by: EvilGinger on 04 December 2012, 23:26:47 I will be getting some more of these soon & I will post pictures of them as the Warbases site will not let me link the images. It is however important to remember that the products are supplied unpainted flat packed & I have added bases for them also by Warbases painted & finished them with Milliput thatch for the most part.
The Miliput thatch trick I stole from here (http://toofatlardies.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/DSCN8153.jpg) http://toofatlardies.co.uk/blog/?p=899 (http://toofatlardies.co.uk/blog/?p=899) Next up will be a wooden barn & a Grub hut followed by a modified, larger, Long house. >:DGinger Title: Re: Warbases Buildings Post by: EvilGinger on 09 December 2012, 19:33:12 I may have bullied Phil into stocking these at Spirit Games.....
Otherwise I am set for a trial order to see how they sell, and I will be selling them via the Shop. >:DGinger |
