eh, those are going to be great. let's see how you do fare with sculpting!

 

[gen.ahab]

I might not be into warhammer anymore, but these are some nice pieces of scenery. Really good work.

 

[Tha Tall One]

I'm quite happy with the progress on my cultist/magister for my Possessed warband. Still WIP:

 

[Iraqiel]

Wow, very true to the new game and very chaosy! Are you going to do a partial chaos star over the hood as though it's been made from a banner?

 

[Tha Tall One]

Thanks @Iraqiel, I'm not entirely sure how I'll paint the model, but I like your idea. Chaos banners would however be quite rare in an empire city I think...

Oh, I don't know... hidden shrines in the sewers, trophies from conquests of some noble lining a hall, perhaps a corrupt patron keeping a secret room for his cultists to meet and plot... I'm sure there could be a few reasons to find one there. Plus, Mordheim is a bit of a nasty place to be generally!

 

[Tha Tall One]

@Iraqiel, you are right of course, though I'd imagine a secret cult would already have ceremonial robes and such.

Managed to finish the magister:

I do like how his staff turned out!

 

[Iraqiel]

Yep, that's a very successful magister staff you've converted there!

 

[Tha Tall One]

Thanks @Iraqiel. I've also started building an (inner) City Wall, including a gate. This will provide some walkways higher up, as they're all exactly as high as my last building.

Additionally, I can use them for Siege games.

 

[Iraqiel]

Looks good. Tell me, how did you do the brickwork? Is it just some time spent very patiently scoring away at a foamboard outer layer?

Yes, each and every line was carved into the foam with a toothpick. Mistakes were erased with milliput, and I've had to erase some major mistakes on the backside of the gate. I'm currently working on the woodwork of the guardhouse atop the gate.

 

[Tha Tall One]

Here's a picture of the gate finished. The doors are separable from the rest of the piece, making it perfect for both sieges and Mordheim. As a matter of fact, you might have seen the wall used in my latest siege.

I will post more pictures when the weather (and therefore lighting) is better.

That magister is creepy...reminds me of KKK... only that they don't hate just black people...they hate everyone! Even themselves!

Yes, I'm quite happy with his creepyness. Interestingly, Spanish flagellants rocked this look long before the racists did, and are probably the inspiration for the KKK. Curiously, any flagellants were prosecuted by the Spanish inquisition, making them kind of a secret cult. However, I won't paint his robes white.

 

[Tha Tall One]

Here are some pictures of the finished wall on my new cobblestone mat!

The second picture shows the murder holes above the gate to pour boiling oil through.

 

[neferhet]

Nice wall!
Those religious fanatics though...:biggrin:

 

[Tha Tall One]

I've also taken some pictures of the city as it stands with all my buildings. I've made the wall such that it is accessable from some buildings.

Keep in mind that this is only my buildings. Once the others have finished theirs, the city will be 7 more buildings richer.

 

[alasdair]

Awesome set of terrain.

 

[Tha Tall One]

Another small update, I'm sculpting a Possessed for my Tzeentchian Cult of the Possessed.
Only the neck needs some more work, and I'm not sure what to do with the right hand.

 

[neferhet]

what about a big eye instead of an hand?
