Finished Viking Terrain Piece

Finally back to hobby time.  Sorry, I've been away for a while.  But my Viking project is back in full swing.  This time I have a hall for my warriors to reside in.  I think this piece turned out okay.  It the first time I have used teddy bear fur for the roofing.  That was interesting. 

Be sure to check back in soon.  As more is coming....

Building the Dark Age Cottage

Getting things built on the Stronghold Terrain.  Pretty cool looking building.

With it being a resin cast, I anticipated that some of the joins would be a little rough.  They are actually not too bad.

After super gluing the walls to the base, I dug out the Apoxie Sculpt, and went to work filling gaps and reinforcing the joins.  Below the gaps on this end of the base were a little much.  I just filled that with some of the Apoxie Sculpt and hit it with a hard bristled tooth brush.

Below you can see the welding of the joins with the Apoxie Sculpt and super glue.

The roof is a bit more problematic, so I used a few pins and some more Apoxie Sculpt.

More on this project to follow.

Stronghold Terrain - Unboxing of the Dark Age Cottage

 I recently ordered the Dark Age Cottage from Stronghold Terrain to further expand my collection of terrain.  Pretty nice looking piece.  There is a bit of strange thing with their mail order if you are ordering from the United States.  Their form asks for your State, but when they process the order and the shipping address the State does not show up.  When I caught that in the confirmation email they sent to me, they had already packed and shipped the item.  At least with the Zip Code it found its way to me from Germany. 

This is what you receive in the kit from them. The Cottage, miscellaneous barrels and sacks, some faux fur for the roofing.

The detail is very crisp and fine.  Not much in the way of mold flash.

Looks like it will be a fun piece to put together.
