Faux Bricks for Fuel Tanks

July 9, 2018

Also making some advances on the 3 fuel tanks. While the tanks are going to appear to be made of metal, the square bases are to be made ofconcrete blocks. To get this effects I used strips of plasticard. Right angle pieces cut from a square plasticard tube were used to create brick effects at the corners, alternating having the longer bits on one side then the other.

I also used a few rectangular pieces on each face to look like protruding bricks. Typically 2-5 per side.

Once painted grey and drybrushed, this will make the bases look like concrete bricks, without necessitating a brick texture on the entire surface. While this more detailed approach could look impressive, it would be much more time consuming to paint, and could distract from the gaming miniatures. I believe while terrain for games should be impressive, it should be a backdrop for the game, not the centerpiece.
