I'm not sure if this is a first or not but today's Terrain entry is actually from two Challengers. You may have seen on our respective blogs, that me and Lee got together a few weekends ago and spent the day making and finishing some Winter terrain for our Retreat from Moscow shenanigans, now of course this can also be used for our new Winter period, the Russo-Finnish War.
Here are 2 boxes of trees, that we winters over with a spray of white paint and also a flick and drybrush, with a very large 3 inch brush.
We also had to sand, paint, drybrush, add grass tufts and finally add the snow mixture
\we are both pretty chuffed how they all came out, there are a total of 76 basses of trees, some smaller trees have 2 or 3 trees on them. The bases are 70mm circles from Warbases.
I have no clue how Byron will work out the points for these???
Next up we have some road, or trackways.
This is how we left them after our days terrain building.
And here's how they ended up!
They were painted twice with our earth brown mix, then drybrushed white before adding our winter snow mixture.
We cut out some different shapes and bends, but stupidly forgot a T-Junction?!?!
The straight long lengths measure 15 inches long and 3.5 inches wide, all in all the measure approx. 17.5 feet in length.
Once again, I'm not really sure how Byron will work this one out??

But as its a 2-Man project the points, whatever they are will be split down the middle, half for Lee and half for me!
Byron was very kind and gave us 120 points, giving us both 60 points.











That was a lot to paint - and a lot of points.
ReplyDeleteA lot more points than we both thought!
DeleteHow fun that you're gonna split them down the middle. Love these kinds of projects. Happy Weekend, Rayola!
ReplyDeleteCheers Ivy!
DeleteGreat terrain pieces, Ray. I'm sure that you probably did the most work on them. Lee was likely taking photos and filming instead!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't possibly comment.........but yes!
DeleteExcellent winter terrain Ray!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cyrus!
DeleteThis is going to make for some great winter gaming.
ReplyDeleteHope so?
DeleteSo interesting to see how you build the whole forest.
ReplyDeleteIts a lot of fun, building it all, Dez.
DeleteWinter trees looking amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteVery nice … just the right amount of chilliness and a good choice as a points earner.
ReplyDeleteIt was a secondary thought putting this lot into the Challenge. I didn't expect 120 points!
DeleteYou cant go wrong with a big pile of terain, nice work!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Too true, Iain!
DeleteFantastic result Ray.
