Zebraoutrider joins the Ordo Xenos and the Mubraxis Dustdogs
Return to the Mubraxis Oasis
I’ve not visited this project for quite a while for a number of [personal] reasons over the last year but having dived headfirst into the Spring Clean Challenge 2023 to re motivate myself and then having acquired a set of Necromunda Ash Waste warriors as my reward and which I now plan to turn into Dust Dogs Imperial Guard scouts and then being inspired by the recent discussions on the Weekender on terrain building, I thought I’d look to fix up the existing 2’x2’ terrain board of the Mubraxis Oasis which had got shelved and a wee bit damaged and start another 2’x2’ terrain board to expand the Kill Team gaming potential.
So, the starting point (or restart) is to finish painting the exterior of the scenery/display board and then to refit the ladders, protective fences and chimney stacks with a bit of Superglue.
For the black paint I’ve used Blackboard paint as it is was available and provides a deep, rich coverage of the ‘imperfect’ sides.
Next up I need to ‘age’ the perimeter fencing and re-sand some areas. I will also need to touch up some fine details to ensure this first 2’x2’ board is ready for a potential entry into GW’s Armies on Parade come October/November (time will fly by!).
I’ll also construct and customise the Ash Waste warriors to become Astra Militarum troops to include in the Dustdogs Army (to parade).
I can then work on the second display board and add a bit more greenery… it is an oasis after all!
