Really like those.  Games with objectives are always fun!

Had these Hovels bridges for a while and just polished them off as well!

Very nice bridges- and a tactically interesting size

Thanks, guys!

They're the ones on this page:
http://www.hovelsltd.co.uk/10mmrange.htm

In the original Warmaster rulebook it's said that the bridges or crossing places shouldn't be wide enough for the longer side of the base to go across.  I've been looking for ages for bridges that are that width, not too long, and don't have silly bits of partial road or river on them which would restrict which bits of terrain I use them with.

Painted up my Hovels ruined church!

I got some little N Gauge tombstones for a graveyard but they're tiny and you don't get much for your money. Going to try a different make and see if I can get something a bit more substantial looking for a spooky graveyard.

I don't know why but I wish there was a nice huge spider web in those ruins you know?

Thanks guys!

As for spiders, well I have researched spiders for a Shellob spawn model for LOTR in 10mm but it's difficult to get the scale right.  The little plastic spiders in the WFB Arachnarok are probably the closest thing I can think of.

Currently have 2000 points of Dark Elves glued, based and basecoated, deciding on a paint scheme for them now.

Really Nice. I have some of similar terrain in 15mm.

Would the pendraken 10mm giant spiders be any use  - these guys http://www.pendraken.co.uk/FAN-MON7-p7259/

cheers

OK, these aren't finished, but thought I should show that I've been working on something!

These DE bolt throwers just need varnish and snow.  The manticore is base coated but I finished the base first, with high elf casualties; an archer and a hero figure from the character blister.
