Didn't really get any terrain done this month, but I did get my set of 12 Renedra tents *mostly* done, so I should be able to do a nice FIW encampment by next month.
In the mean time... just as with my painting, Frostgrave has been taking over my attention when it comes to terrain. I have a ton of stuff I want to do for FIW so I'm trying not to get too distracted!
Having these sitting around doesn't help:
I am really interested in doing a whole board based on the idea of a ruined monastery! Kind of "inspired by" Tintern Abbey in Wales but without being an exact replica:
Oh well; it's easy to have big ideas, but tough to get around to doing them. Those boxes have been sitting in my closet for years!
I'd also love to do a board based on the set of Osgiliath from the Lord of the Rings movies... but this would be an even higher pie in the sky, since it would involve a lot of scratch building!
Anyway - for now, I managed to put my ruined gothic city back in the closet and focus on a few FIW pieces.
Since I already have a bunch of log cabins for the "frontier," I wanted to work on some buildings that could represent a more established settlement. These would be great for the skirmishes during the campaign to take Quebec in the summer of 1759 - this was not the frontier, the British were raiding the suburbs of the most important city in New France!
So here are a couple of houses and a colonial church:
There's also another log cabin in there for good measure... it's a different style than the Pegasus ones though so it will mix things up.
All bets are off once Frostgrave gets released... I have been putting off building a Medieval ruined city board for years, originally intended to be used with Mordheim.
Now I will have even more reason to do it. I've got a whole bunch of kits hoarded away, just dying to be built and painted up... gotta get busy!
Cool Stuff Dude. Need to get another game in or Song of Swords and Blades on this terrain.
