Barks - Rusty Terrain Entry (25 Points)

Some rusty skully scenery to dress my tabletop. I do like these arcane tech pieces; it is a struggle not to really go to town on them. I also painted up a fistful of crates and barrels- these were quick wash and drybrush jobs.


Did you know you can fit 125 skullz on this?

My marble statue technique is white; washed pale grey; thin sepia to cracks; then thinned grey veins.



Skullz: +147 (total 192)

-----------

What a great and weird tech terrain piece (and knowing GW 5x the price of what it should be!) and wow that should really help out your skull count.  I like the dirty rusty paint job, but wonder if maybe you should wash the skulls and mechanicus symbol to blend in more with the dirty nature of the rest of it?  Shame to wreck the clean painting, but I think it might be more cohesive all dirty.  Just my take though, which counts for nothing :-). I do really like the marble effect on the statue though.

As for points, the tech piece looks like it is pretty sizable piece with a lot of detail to work on, so I am going to score it at 15 points (about the same points as a normal sized building).  As for the crates while simple, there is enough detail on there the count them as a small building so I am going to go with 10 points.

  1. Nice work on the marble and for preserving it from accidental staining from all the other work around it!

    1. I've got a few statues and I do like them to tie together visually.
