Here's the last of the main buildings from 'Bloodbath at Orc's Drift'. This is the largest and most complicated of the builds. It uses the techniques I practiced on the first two.
The construction is card again, with thinner card for the roof tiles and the wooden lean-to.
Pink foam for the chimney stack and thick paper for the wooden doors and hinges.
Walls textured with craft glue.
The timber beams have a much more complicated pattern than the first cottage. I tried to think how they would work as a frame supporting the house.
Here's the whole thing painted. I'm pleased with the result, though I do intend to put them all on bases simply so miniatures don't look quite so large next to them.
I deliberately went for a much smaller size tile for the roof. I wanted this to look like a better class of building. This means fiddlier work, but I think it was worth it.
Now I have a wooden watchtower, a ruined cottage, a bridge and an outhouse to build and then the whole Orc's Drift scenery set will be done.
After that? Maybe McDeath, or possibly Terror of the Lichemaster.
