An Arabyan Building

Glad to be of service my friend. I especially look forward to updates on the Spooky Forest.

Thanks for the tips VK! Your arabyan houses are definitely an example to follow for serious terrain building!

Joao

These are absolutely fantastic! Great job on those pieces, very inspiring.

Theo

Thank you gentlemen.

Two weeks passed and I painted some stairs and refurbished some old barricades and that's it.

I did get playtable to photograph the dressed vendor's stand...

EXCELLENT! The addition of the pottery makes the stall...also provides some ammunition for the eventual melee, brawl, riot, or whatever. VERY WELL DONE!

Some things take longer than others; AND you can't rush perfection...I love that excuse.

Thanks for the kind comments Al, The next stand will be a food vendor. FOOD FIGHT!

If only I could remember where those pewter bannanas got to...

That market stand looks like the real thing.

Where did you get those pot from? Please tell me!!

Joao

Thanks! Dwarven Forge sells the pots, although I got them in an auction.

Thanks a bunch!!

Made a note and will get them when possible!

Joao

That market stall is the bee's knees. Love it, such good detail.

Thank you Theomar.

The newest house:




Unfinished interior:

Arabian housing always appears fortified to moi; considering the Gangs of Adventures haunting the neighbor, this may be a good thing. That aside, the new addition is SPLENDID...I really like the stair case. GREAT WORK!

Thanks Al.  I'm trying to expand the number of small nondescript buildings we have available to bulk out the town.  That and re-model some older pieces to make them more useful.  Cut the tippy tip of a finger off last Wed, though.  That slowed me down some.

I ran across this thread while browsing, I mean waiting for glue to dry.  Great inspiration for more buildings/stuff for this project--

Do you feel this hot wind from the desert!
Nice and climate.

Beautifully done!

Thank you both for the kind comments.

Progress: I have 4 more buildings that are ready for painting. Maybe next week there will be photos...

Playtable took a couple of quick photos of just the refurbished buildings at the last game night:



An overhead shot with the roofs removed.  I wish I would have squared up the odd shaped roof, but I didn't think of how to do it until I was almost done...


A small ruined adobe.

That is a SPECTACULAR renovation. The brushwork is MAGNIFICENT...they could be showcase structures from Wargames Illustrated. WONDERFUL WORK! 

Thanks for the kind words.  

What the ruin used to look like:

I intended it as a corridor in a dungeon project a decade ago or so. That never worked out so I cut it in half, you can sort of see the collapsed floor of the 'new' ruin behind/underneath the ogre.

That really is a major change/improvement. Going with the Middle Eastern style does allow you to cover most of the Mediterranean & Caribbean as well as Araby...good choice! 

Great pimping up those old ruins, my fav is the burned out crater ruin, thumbs up!

Thanks guys. I really like the little ruin, too.

And a before picture to give a sense of the remodeling done on the piece:

We've moved from Araby to the Karribean, but the buildings work pretty well in the New World, too. 

VERY NICE! The refurbishing really transforms the old buildings; they reach a new & higher level. The Collection is quite stunning altogether. VERY WELL DONE!
