Gangs of Rome - A Return to the Hobby
A Completed Building!
My Roman builders have actually completed a building!
They started with some textured wallpaper for the cobblestone effect.
I used Army painter soft tone and dark tone essentially as a wash. With a matt varnish spray to take the shine off the paper The only appropriate paper I could find had a bit of a shine to it.
For the walls I used a technique that somebody at the club that I play at recommended. Use wood filler mixed with some water to get a toothpaste like consistency. Paint that onto your walls, wait a while then use a sponge to take some of it off and give it a rough looking plaster effect.
I have done a quick coat on the roof of fur brown – so that its ready to play. But I will be doing some roof tiles next
I wanted the plaster to be a rough plaster on the columns – I like the idea that my Roman builders are the original cowboy builders and just throwing up buildings as fast as possible to make a fast denarii.
4ground’s light red tiles added to the roof.
Great work there, some lovely mini’s and scenery, well done
