Terrain - Reflocked Small Table

 FINALLY got onto the task of reflocking my smaller indoor table, which I use for a variety of things and clocks in a nice 3x4 size.

Originally, this was done with a dark green flock, many years ago, on a plain unpainted board and which showed gaps of lighter through the flock, but that didn't bother me too much. 

I also put patches of spare static flock, in a not very good fashion, but it was all workable as I had a feeling I'd come back to it.

SO, 6 1/2 years later, here we are - put new flock and static grass on top and textured accordingly. Didn't bother trying to get it to stand on end, other than with brute force by whacking the table to remove the spare.

Terrain - New Hills, New Method

 Nothing too exciting, but found an old can of expanding foam in the shed, from doing some DIY a few years back, and decided to give it a try for making some hills. 

Sprayed out the remaining into a couple of piles, let it dry out then roughly carved it into a hilly shape. From there, I got the poly cutter and gave it a little bit of detailing around the edges, before undercoating black, then giving a zenithal spray of grey to make the rocky colouring.

10 mins later, gave them a good blast of adhesive spray and piled some flock onto the hill to cover. Another 10 mins and gave that a good bashing to get all of the loose stuff off, before finally adding some tufts and such for final detailing.

Pretty easy and pretty happy with the results. These seem to be much more rocky, difficult, hills than the gentle idyllic curves of a lot of terrain, so its a good variety.

Needless to say I've bought another can and prepping to make a pair of MASSIVE hills in the same way.

Landsknecht/Empire Cannon + Helblaster

 Some support weapons for the Landsknecht, who will also be doubling up as Empire as and when I fancy. So, seeing as I don't have one, NEED A HELBLASTER

Also, theres a couple of the Warlord Games 'sknecht cannons in there, as I decided to do these all at the same time. 

15th Century Knights

 More Knights, because you can never have enough of them. These are the Perry Agincourt ones which I knocked out on a whim.

Out of Nowhere - Wood Elves

RANDOM PAINTING ALERT

I have no idea why, but I had the urge to paint some Wood Elves. 

Now, I like woods, but I don't particularly like Elves. However, I had an old model kicking about and a treeman, so may as well get on that twitch whilst its there and give them their first ever paintjobs, after many years tolling under Mt Lead.

Taemlein, Wood Elf Scout

Wanted a more feral look, so gave him a cloak of foliage. Its a lovely model, this. Had a minor conversion to the arm, many years ago, where I swapped his owl for a sword. Who throws an owl?

Rotbark, Treeman Double Hard Bastard

These older treeman are still the best ones GW did. Have you seen the absolute state of the current one? Although, that plastic Ent looks like it has potential.
