Flame On's Mordheim Scenery - Sartosa!

A friend (he's known as "zelophahad" online) came over last night and we started making some scenery for the upcoming lunch-time Mordheim campaign ("Lunch-heim"!). This one will be "regular" Mordheim rather than "Empire in Flames", so we need LOTS more buildings than we have at the moment!

We were interrupted by two power-cuts (that blacked-out the whole of north-west Greater Manchester!) we got a pretty good start on them, but they are a long way from being finished but I'll keep you updated.

Very nice, they'll sure look great when they are finished.
I'm looking forward ro seeing the final pictures

Wow, good job Kurgi!

I really love those buildings! Can't wait to see that painted!

Monday lunch-time's work:







We are doing some more work on them on Thursday.

Uuuuuh! The woodwork! This takes AGES! It took me over a month to do the woodwork on my tavern (I also did it lunch-break-wise, but also had to stop for a week or so because of work).





I know it's a chore to glue these wooden planks, but hang in there Warboss, the result is rewarding!

oh... and i forgot to mention: GREAT JOB! Big windows, many floors...perfect!

PS: Could you maybe put a mini inside next time to give us a better idea of the scale?[img]

Thanks guys!

I'll try to remember to bring one with me tomorrow! But for now I can say that each level is 3 inches high, the bases are roughly 8 inches square.

One question:
Is the foamboard you use already painted black?

And I agree with Tom, great job with the wood

The foam board is already black - it's £3.99 for an 80x40cm sheet from the university Student Union shop (a hundred metres down the road from my office!).

We did a little more work on them over lunch today. I took photos but I can't upload them from my camera at work, so you'll have to wait until tomorrow to see them.

They won't be very exciting though to be honest. We added some floorboards and flagstones to the Pie Shop and a sign to the Inn. I took a model with me to show the scale, but I forgot to put it next to the buildings...

The stuff I use is a little cheaper, but white

Black foam core saves a lot of undercoating!

I know. That's why I try to find it

Here's the latest WIP shots from yesterday lunchtime's building session:
(with an Orc for scale this time!)





The start of a third building (which will be a small a stable):




And some walk-ways / gang-planks:

Nice... I like the broken door.

Very very nice Warboss!

I really like your buildings and those walkways
Great job! Thanks for keeping us up to date so regularily

I like your impromptu wooden plank bridges =)

what can i say??? amazing m8 i love them and you gave me some ideas with the window borders etc

Yeah the buildings are very nice, especialy the one with sand and tiles on the bottom floor. They will look great after the paint job.

Thanks guys!

Hopefully work will begin again on these next week - we had a break for Christmas as we were both using our lunch breaks and working in zelophahad's "office".

You'll have to point me in the direction of the student shop Kurgan so i can get my hands on some of that foam. Ill try and contribute some scenery to the cause then. See what i can muster

Sure - it's on Oxford Road in the MMU Student Union Building, opposite All Saint's Park.

Any new pics?

Sorry, no. The last two sessions were not too productive (undercoating!) and I forgot to take my camera.

Hopefully we'll be doing some work on them this week!

After a long break of inactivity we have some progress (and the start of a new model!)

nice pieces man

I like it ! It will be very impressive !
