Skeleton Legion is growing!

I'm halfway through with my skeleton unit! 25 done, 25 to go. I think I'm gonna take a short brake from the skeletons and paint something else and then get back to it. :)

Coaching Inn opens its doors!

I have finished yet another building for the Town of Altburg table. This time it’s the Coaching Inn from Tabletop World's Midgard range. I now have enough buildings to start planing and building the first tile of this huge diorama. :)

Start of the new Skeleton Legion!

Humble beginnings of my new Skeleton Legion! These 90's Warhammer skeletons are definitely my all time favorite. The only ones that you can pose to your liking. The ones that followed were cool but to small. The newest ones with their Arabic swords and helmets don't fit the aesthetics of my army.

Tabletop World Water Well

I really enjoyed painting Water Well from Tabletop World. Houses, especially the big ones tend to be overwhelming at times. Since this piece is rather small, I was able to concentrate on smallest details.  I was playing with different rust effects, added water effects (small water splashes) and different dead leafs to the base. This is one of several Water Wells which will be featured in Town of Altburg diorama.

Second House Done!

I have painted the second house for the Town of Altburg display table. This time it's a Tabletop World's Townhouse III model. I used the same dark color scheme as on the first one. Next I'll be painting Townhouse I model and a Water Well, so stay tuned. :)

Zombie Horde Is Growing!

I am happy to present you the current state of my zombie horde! Few days ago I finally reached the number 50. However, the final goal is to have a unit 100 zombies strong. For now I'll take a rest from zombies and paint some skeletons (I just love skeletons, I can newer have them enough! :) ).

So here are some shots of the unit:

Oh and by the way, I wasn't completely happy with my Landsknecht zombies, they were to clean. A bit of rust, dirt and blood goes a long way. So here they are updated:

And finally, a cool shot of Arachtian raising the dead in the local cemetery:

Start of an Epic Journey!

Something big is cooking! I'm gonna be building an epic display table which will include all of the current TabletopWorld buildings as well as those released in the future! The idea is to build the board, tile by tile, making each tile a standalone diorama. The board will be designed in a way that it can extend indefinitely, and hopefully one day we at the Tabletop World will need a dedicated room just to display this project. The Town of Altburg will be set in Autumn and will lean toward the grim-dark aesthetics. It will feature both the rural outskirts and the town inside the city walls. The plan is to document this years long project with lots of photos, videos and tutorials on how I build and paint the board. To get a sense of atmosphere we are going for, here is the first building I painted for the board – Townhouse II from the Midgard range.

That said, the two Altburg townhouses I already painted in more of a fantasy style do not fit aesthetically into this project, so I'm gonna repaint some of their parts in the dark medieval style. :)
