The Painting Bunkerc y

Hello everyone,

This is a very quick post just to show you some pics of the first Forge World Realm of Battle Cityscape board section that I’ve finished.  As I mentioned in a previous post, I had some mates over today for a bit of Boxing Day hobby action.  I hit up the Shattered Plaza pretty hard and worked like a daemon to get it completed.  I’m very pleased with how its turned out.  It has actually turned out better than I imagined, which has really gotten me excited about painting more of the sections.  Between waiting for sections of the Shattered Plaza to dry, I started working on the Primus Sector.  I’m aiming to get that competed tomorrow, which baring any unforeseen problems will happen.

So lets look at a few pics

So as you can see, the board really has some character to it now.  I’m beginning to feel that once the project is finished its really going to look amazing and be a real pleasure to play on.  On a side note, myself and a good mate of mine who also has a blog called Forlorn Hope spent a few hours on Monday cutting out four of the Imperial Sector box sets in preparation for making the buildings that will adorn these incredible boards.  It was a massive project (cutting them out) and very daunting seeing sprues cut out and thinking of  the amount of work thats going to be needed to assemble and paint all the pieces.   Its epic.

Ok, tonight I’m assembling three Chimeras for my Imperial Guard.  I’ve been seriously inspired by the Forge World Imperial Armour Volume One, Second Edition Armoured Battle Group army list thats included in the book.  So I’m in the process of Mechanising my Imperial Guard light infantry Company.  Which is also going to be a massive project but the sooner I start the sooner I’ll finish.  I’m just going to work on a Platoon time though, so it won’t be too overwhelming.

Ok, thats it for now.
