Back of Beyond - terrain pieces

 A couple of new pieces this week which will be needed for an upcoming game . 

First up a scratch build of a coal bunker . I cut down a piece of A5 2mm MDF for the base . The basic frame is made from balsa sheets cut and glued together . This is sprayed a dark grey and drybrushed . To fill the space I used some kitchen towel soaked in PVA with some black paint added . Once dried I added some scale coal available from Jarvis stuck on with the blackened PVA solution. 

 

Next is a trench strongpoint . This is from the Ironclad 28mm resin terrain which is now back in full availability and production at Pendraken . https://www.pendraken.co.uk/ironclad-miniatures

  

A pretty simple job . Sprayed dark brown overall then using Tan earth for a heavy drybrush and a white mix highlight. The wood in the trench is done a dark grey and highlighted . The sandbags were done a beige brown and highlighted . A bit of static grass added . 

That’s all for now 

Back of Beyond - Forces for the Lion of Khulm

 I needed to do some Afghan types for some up coming  campaign games to bolster the other guys collections . In the lead pile I have about a 100 Old Glory Pathans , so I have pushed some through . As ever with OG figures they look a bit meh in the base metal l,but come to life with paint .

I went with white undercoat and used some Vallejo Xpress paints . They did a job and will do for now ,though I think I need to revisit the colour palette for the rest of them .
