The Master Plan - And Where I Am At

-

I mentioned a few posts ago what my plan is (LINK) and can I stay true to it.

My website HERE has some details around what the units at the garrison will be and there are some notes and background on the units I have completed.
But for the ones yet to be done there is nothing as yet.

So I figured I would show you what they will be.

(Better pictures on my website or previous blog posts)


Here is a shot of the models that will make up the Counts Garrison at Heiligsheld once complete:



THE WHOLE GARRISON




ARMBRUSTSCHUTZEN




FLEGLERS

(I am as yet undecided if these are followers or Morr, Taal, or Gadd.)




HELBLITZEN




ERZATSOLDER





HOLZFALLER



The garrison is to be made from old Citadel models only (including some re-done by Foundry) and as it is story and narrative based, no duplicate models either.

(Incase you are wondering why the static grass on the bases does not match the tabletop, this is the grass mat I use for my 10mm WFB which does match), I could not be bothered to get my 25mm WFB tabletop down from the ceiling.



I am going to try and paint some soon, now that I have finished the farmhouse which took a lot of my creative energy up. 

But I am a slow painter so it could be a while yet...

Warm Ale and Mud

I am going to try a blog. I do have a website that shows my Warm Ale and Mud stuff: https://angelbarracks.co.uk/ However it does not have a comments section so I thought maybe I would give here a go and see how it pans out. So what is this Warm Ale and Mud all about? I am playing Warhammer Fantasy Battle 3rd edition and I am building the village of Heiligsheld and its surrounds. It is a homebrew village/locale set in Stirland . Once I have enough of the places modelled, buildings, scenery and the people that live there, I will begin to tell stories about the village. These will be played out as games and then published here. We will learn how the village got its name, why it is not on any Imperial maps, how Fraulein Pfiezel came to have what appears to the skull of a beastman on her door, why Otto Klept spends most of his time in the pillory, and much more. It will be almost like a collection of short stories about the village told and modelled in miniature form. The soldiers garriso...

Warm Ale and Mud - Scrotter Brokenstaff

The Blood Moon Boyz. So named by Scrotter Brokenstaff from a prophecy which came to him after he fought a mighty demon, and only through cheating did the demon win and the demons blow broke his staff and knocked him out. Whilst out cold, Scrotter (then Scrotter of the Mightystaff) had a vision, in which when Morrslieb runs red with blood, the warband will be invincible to all. So thus did the warband become known. However since his Mightystaff was snapped by the most deceitful and sly demon, old Scrotter has not been casting much in the way of spells of late, something which is getting on the nerves of Holbrog The Butcher the Warboss of the Blood Moon Boyz. Holbrog has made it clear that “a shaman wot ain’t casting no magic is just a sham, an’ dat ain’t no use to me or da ladz, so you better figga out a way to start doin’ da hexin’ agin or you is gonna be havin’ words wiv my boyz Hak and Slash innit.” So it is that Scrotter and four Blood Moon Boyz are making their way t...

Johanne Pertwee Had A Farm...

So begins the farmhouse build. I am basing it on the Townscape one. It will be close enough for people to recognise it, but not a faithful reconstruction. Balsa wood for the timber and foamed PVC for the shell/substructure. Superglue being my weapon of choice. Fiddly bits. Then rapid dry Polyfilla for the rendering. It gets messy so I find I need to scrap it off and score the balsa where the filler has tried to make it look a bit more wooden again. Some scrap plasticard for the roof substructure so I have something to rest the roof tiles on. I think the Townscape farm has tiles but I am going a bit poorer what with it being Stirland and am doing wooden shingles again. However the balsa I have is too thick for shingles as it is, so once cut into strips I then carefully slice them down their length to make them about half the thickness. Then after quite a while and just under 400 tiles later... Next up a few extra bits and bobs and then to prime it.
