This week I got another small batch of scatter terrain done. These were mainly just things that had been sitting around the workbench for some time in various stages of completion, so I was happy to finally push them along.
I always try and max out my materials, so the two kidney shaped pieces were built from scrap bits laying around from other projects. All the wood came from the backyard, the axe and arrows were leftovers from various medieval kits, and the red bird sitting at the top the dead tree is an old Warhammer extra bit from the bits box.
The barrels and the well were cheap rubbery plastic pieces that came out of a medieval scenery kit I bought ‘back in the day’ before the newer plastic kits arrived. As such they had heavy mold lines and didn’t have the best detail overall, so I tried to hide what I could and make them a bit more interesting. As for the tables, these are a mix of plastic and metals, again some old extras just kicking around waiting to be painted up.
For the last piece, I had the wheelbarrow but wasn’t sure what to do with it, until I remembered that I had bought a pack of the Perry Miniatures metal Wars of the Roses period labourers. Thus this little piece will add some interest to my WoTR battles, with this gent hanging in the back of the field looking across and wondering what all the Ruckus is about.
That’ll likely be it for scatter terrain for the time being, I have some larger buildings I need to finish off so they will be the subject of my next terrain posts. Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Another great little terrain submission Andrew. While small these little bits add a ton to a battlefield and are a great idea for people to copy and add to their own. These however had a lot less painting and work than the last batch of scatter terrain, but are still lovely. I am going to award points as follows, 15 points for the scatter terrain bases, 5 points for the tables, and 5 points for the painted figure for a total of 25 points. Great work and thanks for the submission!

The arrows in the stump is a great idea - nice scatter overall
