Battlescale buildings, barricades and hedges
You may recall me posting about the scenery I ordered specifically for this project from Battlescale - I'm happy to be able to say that it is all painted and ready for gaming with!
First up the buildings - you may have followed the journey on Twitter of my painting these. I eventually settled on a recipe for both the brick work and the thatch, which I'm recording here for my future reference!
Stone - GW Mechanicus Standard Grey, AP Strong Tone, GW Mechanicus Standard Grey (drybrush), AP Field Grey (drybrush), GW Administratum Grey Grey (drybrush)
Thatch - Vallejo Iraqi Sand, AP Military Shader, GW Ogryn Flesh, Vallejo Iraqi Sand drybrush.
Now that's done - here they are!
Starting with the pair of crofts (the one on the right shows the rear of the croft):
Next the Barn and Cattle Byre:
As you can see the Barn is a larger piece - the Byre has the additional detail of the trough which is a nice touch.
Finally for the buildings I have the Pig Pen - complete with a Pendraken pig. She's called Cailín by the way!
I've given the mud in the pen a coat of gloss varnish to make it look somewhat wet. I really like this piece and think it'll add a very fun element to the gaming table.
Next we have the Hasty Earthworks pack. I kept these really simple - as they are useful for a range of settings I went with my standard non-desert base colour:
Finally we have a selection of hedges (Vallejo Extra Dark Green, AP Strong Tone, GW Death World Forest drybrush):
Here's a close-up too:
I really enjoyed painting all of these pieces - I'll certainly be picking up more from Battlescale for a few 10mm projects!
