One of these projects was more scatter terrain for my 55 Days at Peking project. Today I finished basing up a moon gate made from left-over scraps from other projects, plus a batch of lanterns and statues from TT Combat.
The TT Combat stuff is really nice indeed. Crisply cast, very little flash and certainly no defects.
Easy-peasy to paint up using a combination of black undercoat and successive layers of grey dry-brushing plus a few highlights and details.
My 18 y.o. daughter Anna enjoys terrain work (or terraining and she likes to call it) so I handed these over to her and she did a sterling job indeed! Even better, we spent a really enjoyable 90 minutes together working and talking about nothing in particular.
I'm building up a decent sized collection of scatter terrain now to go along with the various buildings. The table is going to look sweet in a few weeks time when I get my first game proper on the go.
Next up a large batch on Imperial forces infantry which are Challenge fare, including German Seebatallion, Russian Sailors and Japanese Infantry.
Cheers,
Millsy
I really like this project. I am using the EMP French figures for 1890’s Colonial for TMWWBK’s.
