    World Edges Campaign : Sceneries

    Hi! This post focus on the principals sceneries for the campaign (check the scenarios here). Let’s begin by the four large cliffs. 
    I made them with foam and sculpted the blocks with a cutter (large blade). I applied the classic recipe for sceneries making : Dry brushing, weathering and flocking. No particular tip!


    Setup of the three battlefields:

     
    Stand fast at the gate !
    The centerpiece of the last scenario is the large gate incrusted in the cliff. This gate is the first defence of large Stronghold built by an old community of expatriated Dwarves. Far from the traditions of their ancestors, they adopted the Human Empire customs, traditions, fashion styles and architecture!
    I requisitioned some parts of the Mighty Fortress and I reinforced them with the traditional and often forget… hoarding. It was a temporary wooden shed-like construction that was placed on the exterior of the ramparts of a castle during a siege to allow the defenders to improve their field of fire along the length of a wall and, most particularly, directly downwards to the wall base.
    This kind of additional structures aren’t complicated to build, it simply required time and patience. I build it with card-board (2mm thick) and swizzle sticks! I love these sticks, stingy material compared to the balsa wood. But less workable, I admit!

    Next step, battle reports!
