Kodsticklerburg: A Mordheim Project

Hello Tom's Boring Morheim Forumites!
Many years ago I bought the rulebook and Best of Town Cryer on ebay. I also picked up a couple of the Blood in the Streets sets. I painted a troll slayer and that was it for the project ... until this fall. After chatting to a couple of buddies I decided that my winter project was going to be a Mordheim table. The first buildings are under way and I hope to update my blog and this thread on a regular basis.

One building is finished...

... and another one on the way:


I hope to make additions to my blog on a regular basis...

WELCOME ABOARD, Codsticker! That is a SPLENDID way of introducing yourself. VERY NICELY DONE!  

That's a great start! Welcome to the forum.

Great work on your first ruin

Welcome aboard!

The buildings look absolutely wonderful, how lucky to have that ammount of mordheim building sprues, it makes wonders!

Thank you Jymmy...

I have an update... but not an impressive one. This second building has involved a lot of faffing around  .
Some early WIP...

... and a little further along:


A few more pics on

That is coming along nicely. Keep up the GOOD WORK!  

A few factors have kept me from updating my blog but finally... These pictures are actually a few months old. I have since finished both these buildings as well as a another and have done a number of bits of scatter terrain: barrels, boxes, rubble barrier a cart, that sort of thing. It may be a while before I find time to take and post pictures of those but I have enough terrain now to make a pretty decent 3'x3' board. I have another 4 buildings waiting in the wings and possibly a large scratch built ruin using the leftovers of my Blood in The Streets plastic bits.

Blog Update.

LOOKIN' GOOD! They are a pair of SPLENDID ruins...attractive & game's worthy. OUTSTANDING WORK!  

Really nice work

Thank you guys. I had some unexpected spare time today so I took a whole bunch of pictures of the finished buildings as well as work I hadn't posted yet.

You have some BEAUTIFUL creations there. The accessory pieces are really nice accents to the larger ruins...I love the well & the tree. VERY WELL DONE!  

You are too kind DeafNala.

OH BABY!...there that shows a suitable amount of enthusiasm. I'll keep an eye out for your next batch of photos.

Update! 2 more buildings finished: the other half of the Sarissa Precision English Timer Framed house and a Ruined Farmhouse from Warlord:



As usual, more pictures on my blog.

Two nice additions. The moss on the rooftiles is a nice touch

SPLENDID! Two different but complimentary styles. I like the exposed stone work on the Warlord piece, AND I agree with Grimscull that the moss is a nice touch. Both are BEAUTIFULLY painted & properly cluttered up. VERY WELL DONE!

I spent most of yesterday laying down flagstones...

LOOKIN' GOOD! The effect is certainly worth the effort. GREAT WORK!

You certainly make the most out of the Warlord-hamlets. How many of them are in there? And as DeafNala said, it was worth the effort!

Thank you guys.



There  are three buildings in the Hamlet box. Pretty good value actually but they are quite tiny. Perfrect for 20mm WW2 gaming I would think; which is a little wierd as Warlord makes 28mm figures.

Warlord does make some really nice miniatures, but they don't all seem to be the same size. Their English Civil War are tiny, much smaller than G.W's stuff. G.W's buildings aren't exactly imposing either...except for the number of skulls plastered all over them.

Thanks for all the photos of the Warlord buildings... I keep looking at those kits and still haven't bought.
