Inspired by the terrain at the US Grand Melee, I decided to clear out my terrain queue and buff out my meager collection. Good terrain & nicely painted figures are key to walk-ups when you play in a public space like I do.
First up is the
Warlord Games Plastic Ruined Hamlet. The set was easy to assemble and paint with black primer and drybrushed shades of gray. I mounted the ruins on MDF so I could do rubble-strewn floorboards. Modeling pigments break up the sea of gray. These will pull double-duty in Bolt Action and Frostgrave.
I've been a fan of the
Fenris Games Viking Rune Stones since I laid eyes on them. The marshy theme was a bit of work but makes them flexible. In SAGA, I can drop two of these in a terrain element and call it rocky ground OR a marsh. The leaf litter is
Green Stuff World's Natural Leaf Litter. I'm not entirely sure the split grey and brown basing works. I can circle back and change it in the future if it bothers me enough.
This run was a nice boost to my terrain making confidence. Now to get a game on and put it out on the table!
