beginning of a boomtown
been wanting to do a wild west table for a few years now
and now i'm finally getting around to do it.
i ordered several buildings on Amazon from Atomic Laser Cut Designs.
i reckon over time i'll get more to create a small town
that will cover at least 4x4 gaming space.
i was excited to share my first building i completed this evening which is a saloon.
hopefully by the end of the month i'll have the rest done and
a battle report or two posted.
a show down outside a saloon.
easy assembly even without instructions.
first set of buildings i had built.
i didn't know what color or how to go about painting a wild west building.
so i figured my first building should be at least an easy one.
i watered down some Apple Barrel acrylic paint,
added some black to the and did the doorway and window frames.
same thing for the billboard, watered down some green and black for the lettering.
"you cheated me, you son of a bitch!"
A great start to your town, something I've never managed to make. I have tried with card buildings, but I've never been happy with them, your MDF stuff looks nice and robust, and the painting is subtle but effective.
ReplyDeletethanks.
DeleteI have to admit these buildings are easy as hell. probably 15mins build time (glue drying also) and then 30mins paint job.
if I'm committed should be able to crank out all six in a day.
These look great! And thanks for the heads up on Atomic Laser Cut Designs - they've got some buildings in their Big City Streets line I've been looking for!
ReplyDeletethanks man, most likely im gonna order some more next month. and ur welcome on the info. they are nice and simply built.
