Some Scenery pieces

As I´ve understood one of the most oldhammery things around is making scenery from scrap. I´ve been wanting to give it a try for some time now and this week I finally got myself to do it. Here are the first few pieces I´ve thrown together. More will surely follow.

Pea sous can used as an oil tank or something. White base, Nihlakh Oxide on that, sprayed with

rust effect paint. Some highlights with orange and yellow. Dark shade for leaking stuff. A couple

of Tau bits to add some variety to the form.

Good stuff for an inpatient painter like me. Leaves a nice rough surface.

 Some rusty pipes made out of plastic soda straws. Same method as above.

More pipes but this time with a sheet of corrugated metal.

 Metal fence. Going to make a few more of these.

With some variety to desing of course.

That same fence from other side. 

These should go pretty nicely with my desert themed IG. Now I just need more!

Hell on two wheels

Well - not exactly. Just a goblin wolf chariot I finished a few days ago. I´ve been very busy painting my O&G army as we are playing in two weeks and want to get everything needed ready. I´ll be GM:ing a three palyer scenario with orcs, dwarfs and goblins and we´ll have at least one pitched battle with 2000 point armies. That will be skaven vs. O&G so we are expecting to see a lot of running away and all sorts of cowardise. And if we have time I´m hoping to face the dwarfs too.

The chariot completed is a MD9 Goblin war chariot. The original paint job is pretty flamboyant and in my opinion too neat for goblins so I took another approach to subject. I tried to get it look like old dry wood that has been out for long and discolored. For some reason I had a viking ship in my mind. Perhaps it was the idol on the joke what caused that image.

The model I have was missing one of the wheel scythes so I replaced both wheels with plastic ones from a 90´s high elf chariot and made new blades from plastic goblin spear points. I didn´t like the shaman crew gobbo and used an arrer instead. The standard pole was left out mainly because I suck at painting banners.

The wheel on this side is listing a bit as it was fixed with some green stuff and I wasn´t careful enough with securing it´s position when drying. After all I´m not too sad about it. It´s gobbos - their equipment should look like it´s been put together by a five-year-old.

Finally a top view as I wanted to show you the river sections used in these pictures. Those are from Oakbound studios and are designed by Fimm McCool. Very good quality pieces of scenery.

Now I just need to finish one troll and that will take my O&G rank & file point value well above 1000 points. Four days to do that - I think I can make it.
