Set Dressing

I like world building more than playing.

I do like playing, but that is more something I do with the things I have brought to life.
This playing in turn creates events that have consequences and repercussions which is more world building. 

Build, play, the story writes itself.

I like to try and immerse myself in the world I make, and this means making it look real.
Now dioramas would be the way to go, but then we lose playability which whilst not my focus is still part of the process and still fun.

So I need bits and bobs to break up the flat golf course tennis court flat tabletop I use.

Set Dressing.

Hedges, Walls, Fences, Fields, Trees, Bushes, all manner of odds and sods.
If you have seen my earlier posts around the buildings, you will know I like to breath extra life into them.
Go the extra mile and all that.

I like to do the same with my scatter terrain type stuff.

Here are some of my bits of scenery, apologies for these not having the background cropped out like my game report and some of the other terrain.

Some Hedges.

Like all good oldhammer hedges, they have bits of fence in them.
I have many more but only seem to have images on my laptop of these ones.

Some walls now from Fenris Games.

I did spend quite a while painting these, I wanted them to look quite realistic. 


A field.

Coir matting is great for fields, that is no big secret, for the not so fussy wargamer you can just slap a chunk of it down and be done with it.

Or with some extra love and care you could make your field a bit more interesting.

Some Fences from Renedra.

These were a pain in the ass to assemble and needed filling and some blank sides needed wood texture sculpting on.

I will make any more that I need.

Some Barricades.

The idea behind Warm Ale and Mud is the slow build up of an all out attack on the village of Heiligsheld by the forces of Undead.

That final battle will be an all out attempt to defend the village and so barricades will be employed. 

That will do for now, next time, trees, more fields, and other not exciting but essential stuff!!
