15mm impudent Mortal House finished.

I finally finished the first of the seven buildings from the kickstarter. The raw product looked like this:

A little spackle, some roof details and some window dressing combined with paint, and I ended up with this:

All and all, I am happy with how it turned out. I am trying to figure out how to do the next building.

Terrain update

Well I started some more work on the first of the impudent Mortal buildings over the weekend. Honestly, I got very little accomplished other than smearing the thing with spackle.

Its a crummy picture but it shows a little of what I have done so far. After suggestions from friends, I will be making some chimneys for it and mounting them sometime soon and base coating it.

Impudent Mortal Kickstarter Arrived.

I just wrote about new toys but did not mention the arrival of my kickstarter purchase. The pack of 15mm buildings arrived. There is not a whole lot of detail that comes on them but they should be just the ticket to fill out a table in short order. A little paint and some creativity, and I will have a wonderful village. I am really thinking that this will be a Russian village when I am done. I have good farm buildings. I have urban ruins. What I am trying to have is an industrial area and worker housing. I think I have solved the worker housing situation now.

It is a poor quality picture but the products are great. THe roads on the right are the ones from Battlefield Accessories.

Now only to find time to paint or game.

Kickstarter that I just joined in on and Other Things

I found this kickstarter and was suitably impressed with the 15mm offerings. Impudent Mortal has a very nice set of 15mm buildings that would work well for housing near an industrial quarter for my eastern front games. I plan on painting these accordingly.

Please check it out. They have both 28mm and 15mm sets in this kickstarter. It seems to have already more than reached its goal and they are due to come out this year. Click here for the kickstarter page: Impudent Mortal Kickstarter

Other Things

I found out this morning that the reason I am so tired is that I have a case of Strep again. To make myself feel better, I started some retail therapy. Really it was just adding items to my wishlist as I don't have any money to spend at the moment.

The first item that I found was a nifty little park in 15mm by a group called Finished Terrain. It looks to be a park surrounded by cobblestone and a hedge. It includes a fountain and a path across it. I want one.

The next item that I found was a nice little home with a pig sty on the back of it. It has a stair leading to a side door on the second floor. I think this could find a place either my east or west front games. It is a nice Four Ground building that comes prepainted. Something that I am getting increasingly interested in.

Maybe if I drop some hints, my wife I might get one of these for my birthday next month.

Impudent Mortal 15mm Industrial terrain

I just finished work assembling the 15mm workshop that I purchased from Impudent Mortal. Great bunch of guys and really nice models. It took me about a half hour to glue the model together. It was actually very simple to do once I printed the instructions off of their website. My next steps are painting it. The roof of the building can be removed over the enclosed area. I glued down the roof over the porch. I need to figure out how to do them as the roofs are completely flat and have no texture at all. The walls are grooved and could go for either wood or corrugated metal.

I really like this building and hope to get more work done on it tonight.
