Acon team tournament on display board


In the pictures below you can see the display board with towers and skulls in it.  The entire board is covered in a thin layer of Spackle!  Then layered up twice black latex paint before priming.  The cuts were made with a Styrofoam cutter and an upper shelf was then made.  I recommend using spackle to fill in all gaps before adding any paint.  Its easy to miss deep corners with paint and simpler to stack the spackle up and fill in the holes beforehand. 
Acon Display board as a WiP
 The back two sections are modular and can be removed for a cover piece of a display board, units can also be put on top of the them.  There are several features including statues on the side of and back of them and a rear castle opening with pillars.

Display board primed black.

Tweeked Astromancer's Lair

Exterior View main tower
Double Hex tower set added to main housing

MWR9: Tower

 My new Tower assembled for MWR 9's Terrain project.  I will be doing some interior work to this.  This is the Astromancer's Lair from Games Workshop.  Plenty of small bits will be added to the base to give the medieval battle effect.  Interiorly I will be adding stairs, ladders, chests, doors, weapons racks, and skulls.

I have done further work on this terrain piece but wanted to feature it before the table of terrain is due next month, stay tuned until then.

Sword of Shannara

My next Commission project is to make a full size 25mm replica of this D&D image from a text Sword of Shannara. The Sword of Shannara is a 1977 epic fantasy novel by Terry Brooks. The first book of the Original Shannara Trilogy, it was followed by The Elfstones of Shannara and The Wishsong of Shannara. Inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and historical adventure fiction, Brooks began writing The Sword of Shannara in 1967. It took him seven years to complete, as he was writing the novel while attending law school. After being accepted for publication by Ballantine Books, it was used to launch the company's new subsidiary, Del Rey Books. Upon its release, The Sword of Shannara was a major success and the first fantasy paperback to appear on the New York Times bestseller list. Its success provided a major boost to the commercial expansion of the fantasy genre.
