15mm Terrain

I've been looking at gathering more 15mm Terrain to help bulk out a board.  My purchase of some Amera Plastic houses started my brain thinking how best to base them? individually they would seem quite small so I decided to attempt a small hamlet putting  all the houses on one base. I drew out my plans plus some roads as well (always useful)

The cardboard I decided was not the best base and I knew the Range local to me had some foam board in so off I went.

 I returned the with my large sheet of foam board. I set out cutting what I needed and sticking the houses down. 

As you can see I also cut out some roads  Also on the hamlet  piece you'll see a circle of cardboard. This will be a pond, I needed the extra bit of cardboard to give me a bit of height when applying the filler. This will allow me to get some depth to the pond when I add the epoxy water effect.

The roads I have added filler to and will sand them down when they are dry.

After all this I had some foam board left over. I decided to make up some ruins to add to my 15mm battle field.  I made up some templates and cut out the foam board  I wanted a couple of ruins where a tank could park inside (ish) . Once I cut out  the building sides and base I stuck them all together.  Then covered the lot in filler.

Once  the filter had dried I sanded it down and I felt the ruins needed something else. I had plenty of small bits of foam board left so I thought why not bits of rubble. I used some matches for wooden beams

Also after some advice from the Terrainiacs Facebook group I added some sand to the rubble piles.
I'll keep you guys updated have a great day! 

Woah! Been a while.

Just checked out my blog and realised I haven't posted for a while. I've been in Wales for 5 days which was a nice break away with the family even with the 12hrs of games and rain (Hey welcome to Wales). Obviously  I went to Porthmadog Models but being low on funds only a small purchase was made. The Rorkes Drift centre display had got bigger unfortunately I didn't get any pictures as my sons and their cousins also came in the shop so I had to give a very limited history lesson about Rorkes Drift.  I had my eye an Amera plastic castle type building but spotted some 15mm looking houses  These I thought would be useful for Tanks Modern Age.

Seem to scale up OK next to some 15mm tanks 

I thought these might be good all added to one terrain piece. Maybe a small hamlet. I've even started planning it along with some roads.

Just three houses with a small road junction but as one piece. The houses are Amera Plastic and as usual great quality. I'll keep you posted on these

On the models front been a bit quiet as I've not really had the time  My fellow blogger and best friend has recently got into Street Wars NYC. In his blog post (Check out his blog here) about the game he dropped a hint about where a gang would go. This I missed only to get a message offering me a gang from this new game

These look really cool and I'm looking forward to trying the rules out after I've painted the models.

And last of all I've been playing blood bowl on the PS4 in a Dads league and on my own with a few different  teams. I was thinking of doing a blog to track one teams progress (not my current team in the Dad league as they are terrible !!!)  I might pick my human team and start a new tournament if this is something people will like.
