If you don't mind me asking...how do you do the brick work? Same as the road tiles. I see you make your big cuts with what appears to be a hot wire cutter. But unsure how you do the scoring.

I have seen a lot of people just use a ball point pen to make cobblestone/brickwork. I have found it works myself but it depends on the pen and effect you are going for.

In germany we have something called the Vollmetallischer Universalstrukturierer (full metal ubiquitous structuring tool). Maybe he used one of those.

The technique with the ball point pen is used very often by Gerard Boom. But he has other very interesting techniques too.

 

(the vidoes are in german, but you sould easy understand what they're doing just by looking at it)

Hi here :)

 

due to storage problems I'm still pausing further buildings. I'll move to a bigger place in the springtime and I think I'll concentrate on miniatures until then.

Wow, this board is so fantastic, I love the barracks especially, with all the different small angles and the small niches and stuff. Two thumbs up for this work!

Nice to hear, thanks :)

Pretty little things! You seem to prefer a less bright paintjob than I do. Eager to see your take on Misaki.

Thanks :D Yes, I like desaturated colours.

Butch nailed it :)

Brick work: it's three steps: 1. pencil 2. knife 3. pencil.

Welcome back, @SilentSeeker !  This has been one of my favourite threads to follow over the past few years.  Glad you are back at it.  The board is amazing.

Thank You very much :D

 

Let's have a lot on the production of some windows. Further there are more detailed pictures of two of the new buildings: a tavern (the building with the balcony) and an inn.

So first comes my “Tower of Malifaux”. I think it is quite unpractical for gaming, but its walls footstep is about 6” - so I think it won’t hinder the gameplay too much. If so, I can place it right next to the play area “for atmospheric and aesthetic reasons” :)

The spoiler at the bottom of the post contains a few pictures of the building process.
