Project Log: Altburg - Townhouse I, Part 13

tabletop world

The moment has finally come to paint the house! :) I've been looking forward to it for quite some time. I finished the ground floor and I'm pleased how it turned out. I decided to do color variations between the stones a bit more subtle than usual. For some reason it looks more urban to me and thus fits better to the townhouse. I also didn't want to overdo with vegetation, for the same reason (which wasn't easy) :).

The ground floor is still missing all the details, like lanterns, doors, sign, shutters, etc.

Mortreich's Black Knights WIP pt.2

I finally got around to paint some of my undead minis, after finishing with the Midgard house project (although I still have to paint it). The project took me a couple of months to finish and during that time I haven't painted any miniatures. So working on my Mortreich's Black Knights again was a real joy. I completed another three, including the champion and musician. Now I have 7 out of 24 done.

Project Log: Altburg - Townhouse I, Part 12

And at last, after several months of work, here is the finished house in all it's glory! I deserve a beer. 🍺 :) It was supposed to be a personal project initially, but I later decided it would be a shame not to put it into production and make it available. This was a long journey but I am really happy how the model turned out. 

So here are the photos of final model cast in resin. It is available at Tabletop World.

Now I have to bring it to life with some paints! I think I'm really going to enjoy painting it. :)

Project Log: Altburg - Townhouse I, Part 11

After finishing the plaster on all of the walls, which took my a while, I am now doing final tedious work...putting the shingles on the roof and filling gaps with green stuff. After that I have a couple of hundred rivets to do. 😅

I should be done with all the work by tomorrow and have it cast in resin on Friday. Can't wait to see the final product. 😁

Brother Gumbert

This goodhearted monk is an Altburg graveyard church resident. One can imagine him slicing his matured Cheddar complimented with a nice cup of wine. :) The mini is totally different from the dark characters I'm used to paint and it was lot of fun. :D Townsfolk run to this little guy to seek refuge when Vampire Counts are approaching. 🧛

The miniature as well as the scenery is from Tabletop World.
To see how I painted the stone walls and flagstone floor on this Graveyard you can check out my tutorial on how I paint stone.
