Re: Bishmeister's Darklands Hobby Blog
Here's the process I use to create the floor tiles.

Re: Bishmeister's Darklands Hobby Blog
It's been a long time since I posted here despite saying I would post more often. This thread needs an update and I'll be taking a retrospect look at the Darkholds: Byzantii Catacombs board I made for Salute 2018. Firstly a bit of background on Darkholds.

Re: Compel and influence episode 13 Terrain Challenge results
Great work guys. Paul's thicket looks very effective, good height and seems quick and simple to achieve. James' moorland is also realistic looking, great to see some height with rock formations. Hugh, well, I'm not sure this is a hill, more of a rock formation. I look forward to seeing this finished...

Norse longships
Do Trolls/Hrafnmen/Jotun help with rowing the longships?
If so, do the longship designs differ from historical ones to account for their larger bulk?

The drive to Salute was uneventful but it was a very early start. I arrived and the Mierce team came down en masse to give me a hand with the board.

Re: Bishmeister's Darklands Hobby Blog
There was a day of perfect weather for spraying so I just had to go ahead and get some paint on the model. I started with a grey primer which would be the colour of the board's sides and the base colour for the rocky outcrops. I then airbrushed some shading in the recesses using a darker grey. http:...

Thanks for the kind words folks. I'm starting to get excited now as I've started to crack on with the Byzantii temple.

Great intro to your hobby. The test model is looking great, I really like the natural tones you have used. One criticism I have for the paint scheme is that because the colour tones are very similar and subtle there is no focal point, an area that draws the eye in, which is often a spot colour that ...

Re: minis to practice on?
I agree with Zedmeister, get stuck in with some Mierce models. But, very importantly, you must thin those paints down, three thin coats is better than one thick. Also multiple coats will help with paint and hand control practice and once you het better you can repaint them without oblitera ing any d...
