Warhammer Display: The Mines Beneath the City  |
| May, 2014 I began the dwarf cave construction. Its 2 16"x20" displays side by side. Each area is cut to fit. An Arachnarok so 4 giant spiders could fit in each of the cave holes. The bridges fit a 5" Wide unit and the height of the entire board is approx. 24" |

| This is a close up of the interior of the cave display area. |
 |
| After much deliberation I decided to make an additional 16x40 above ground castle display for either another Dwarf area or possibly an Empire Army. |
 |
| I used layers of Foam Board to Stagger the height in a rough outline, filled the gaps with sprayfoam that dried overnight. I then simply cut out the sprayfoam, gapfiller, to make it level and then started, again, another layer of spackle. The blocks you see are from HobbyLobby they are a brick building set for Egyptian pyramids. |

| This is a view of the castle with several layers of spakle, cork lining all areas where troops could fit and sand on some base layers. |
 |
| A view of the inside of the castle and the mine entrance under the main part of the castle. I tried to incorporate stairs and several rooms in the castle. |
 |
| I think I went through 2 cans of spraypaint primer. |
 |
| Several layers of dirt and grey. I then use a spray bottle with diluted black paint to achieve a wash effect and let it dry for 2 days before applying more highlights and drybrushing. |
