My church and small graveyard (liquid nails and mug not included)
Unfortunately,
the provenance of the church is unknown as I inherited it from AledC's
Dad. I do believe though that at one stage it was a
choose-your-own-parts-and-assemble job due to the different windows, and
the entrance, have evidence of both super glue and liquid nails
sticking them to the main body.
To
paint the church I first undercoated with Army Painter Uniform Grey
Spray Primer then I made a black wash from tube acrylic paints and
liquefying medium and heavily wash the whole thing, putting extra washes
on the roof tiles. I then painted the brown of the wood and
spinneret, as well as the gold. I then dry brushed the bricks with a
white tube acrylic and then roof tiles with a dark grey. After this, I
painted the stain glass windows.
The resting place of my opponent's figures.
For
the grave stones, I did the exact same process with the priming, dry
brushing, and washing. For the base, I first sanded then painted with
tube acrylic Burnt Sienna, then dry brushed with Raw Umber, and finished
it off with some turf green flock. I have many more of these gravestone
bases/terrain that didn't get finished in time. I intend to use them as
an arrange it yourself deal so you can have as little or as much
gravestone as you would like.
Picture proof that I have even more!
As
I was painting up the church and gravestones for the bonus round, I
also found some Japanese tombstones that I decided to paint up as well.
Even more graves!
Close-ups
I
actually primed these guys with the Army Painter Matt Black Spray
primer then heavily dry brushed them the Vallejo Neutral Grey, followed
by a lighter dry brush of the Vallejo White. The basing is still the
same, though these guys are on poker chips.
I
actually intend on using these guys as either casualty markers or a
half strength unit of ghosts for Dragon Rampant. So even though they're
not going to be used as terrain, I thought that this would be the most
appropriate time to submit them.
So
that's it, my submission for the "home" bonus round. Next up on the
painting block is a few skeletons that will serve as test subject and
practice for rust and glow effects. Wish me luck!
That's a really interesting church.

ReplyDeleteNice work
ReplyDeleteI like the stained glass.
It's a lovely looking church model that turned out really well (I wonder though if the onion dome at first belonged to another model?), and you did a cracking job on the graveyard models.
