Post subject: | Making of the Bucklebury Ferry - part 2 |
The ferry & the jetty (or two of them) received a coat of bestial brown followed by a wash of nuln oil. I used Faller weathering powders (mainly black, white, greenish grey and red) to weather pretty much everything. A bit messy, but the results look fairly nice. This photo shows a comparison of a weathered and an unweathered jetty. On the left you can also see the painted thatched roof. I used quite a number of GW colors – initial layer of scorched brown was drybrushed with a mix of scorched brown and codex grey, then with snakebite leather, vomit brown, graveyard earth, kommando khaki, and bleached bone. The pieces touching water received a bit of ‘ardcoat to simulate wet wood around the waterline. Finally, to blend the jetty to the riverbank, I drybrushed the top parts with Vallejo light sand. The lamp posts sit on top of of channels made from straws, making it easy to route the wires from the lamp posts through the entire Styrofoam terrain. Here are some pics of the finished cottage, complete with a stack of firewood outside. The final pics show how the simulated night light was achieved. I routed an RGB LED strip over the entire gaming terrain. My initial attempt was to use pure blue light – this was recommended by some model railroading sources as a good way to simulate moonlight. However, the resulting photos looked frosty and wintery, so I ended up having a bit of green mixed with blue. The five meter LED strip has 300 LEDs in total, 100 each of red, green and blue, allowing for quite a selection of colors. A model railway transformer supplied power to the ferry lamp posts. If you haven’t yet done so, please check the campaign thread to see the night time gameplay photos – they are usually 0.6 second exposures, with no post-processing whatsoever. I was quite pleased with the LED strip, and will be using it again for the Weathertop scenarios to provide some night light, and in Moria to give our games some fiery orange glow. Stay tuned! |

You might want to make these boards a bit more realistic mate... (joke!) Absolutely amazing stuff; no actual compliments really do this work justice! |

I know it was simple, but can we also see how you made the treason of isengard wizard duel game board too? |
