They are homemade. Sheet of styrofoam--like foam core but without the paper--scored with a grid and then rolled with a ball of aluminum foil for texture. Paint and done.

Ingenious!

Thanks! I can't take the credit, though. I learned how to do it from a youtube video:

These doors are all my creation, though.

The terrain projects continue. I finally got around to putting the Numinous Occulum together. It only took a little bit of green stuff to close the gap...

I have a gap like that on my Grifhound I'm working on. :(

That's one of the things I always struggled with when it came to scenery. I'm terrible with green stuff so I never want to start painting until all the gaps are filled in, yet I never get around to doing it because I hate working with green stuff.

My buddy meanwhile is sculpting extra fur and hair on every model he can get his hands on, and I can barely make a little tube and stick it in the gaps.

Very nice work! This *should* inspire me to make more scenery, but as I rarely play games any more it has even less priority than painting miniatures...

Nice work!   :::cheers::: :::cheers:::

I regret not purchasing more of those kits (except when I look at all of the ones I have never put together...)

I'm just like that. I always thought they were amazing kits, and see how nicely their painted like here really makes me wish I'd got some. Yet at the same time I remember that I must have half a dozen different scenery kits put aside that I built and never finished painting.

Terrain is one of my favorite things to paint. It seems like for the results you get, it takes not as much time.

And now for something completely different, as the saying goes. I've begun the process of re-basing some old WOTC Star Wars metal characters that I painted a while back. I've added a little height to each base, and now they will be more consistent with the new Star Wars Legion models. I hope you enjoy them.

The first is the Cerean Jedi. This guy was my character in the Living Force campaign for many years.



Next up is the Human Male Fringer.



Last, for now, is a Warhammer 40K model that I painted up do be a human soldier.
