Today it's time for an update. I was so impressed by Vincents self made castle I also wanted one really bad. Thanks to his tutorial it was fairly easy. The only problem I encounterd was while making the negative of the stone wall. The first try I forgot to grease the styrofoam positive and half of the milliput remained stuck in the positive.... Doh! But with some grease and some new ordered milliput the second try went much better. I also found out that I can use my photo box as a storage box. Here's the result.
It still looks a little bit like barbie's castle but some grey paint should make it look more like a boy's toy. When I removed the castle from the box I also could take some pictures of my new elven infantry units.
For now I'm done with the elves except for some dragon princes (6 strips without the command strip
) which are already primed. I'm going to paint them mostly blue and silver. After that some Averland or Ostland empire will follow. But maybe some chaos will be first because you can paint points quicker.
