I’m almost done now. The cemetery is getting to be a good size but there’s always room for more graves, four more rows of graves in fact.

I’ve built these four pieces in exactly the same way as all of the other pieces, with 1mm plasticard (cut to size with scissors), cork board, ready mixed filler and then sand.

The graves were a mix of Debris of War and Renedra. I also included a curled up sleeping cat and a sitting dog I found in my bits box from a Warlord farm animals sprue.

The pieces were sprayed with Halford’s black then drybrushed grey, then light grey and finally white, all using cheap Hobbycraft acrylic paints. The stone work was then washed using the usual homemade wash I’ve had lying around for over a year. I’m pretty sure there’s a mix of black, burnt umber and matte medium in there but it’s been a while.

After a further application of green wash (Army Painter) I painted the soil using a watered down mix of black and brown cheap artists acrylics.
I painted the cat an orange before quickly painting it black as it stood out a mile. The dog I painted as a German shepherd using only three colours, and one of those was a beige for a quick drybrush.

After the usual tufts, static grass and a few birch seeds for leaves that was it. The cemetery was complete. Project done…

…for now at least. I’m really tempted to get some plastic iron railing fences from Renedra, enough for the rest of the cemetery to go with the Garden of Morr set for a full 2×2. If I do that will be later this year or maybe next year as I want to get on with other projects.
I’ve also got plenty of gravestones left so I could easily add more pieces but for now I have enough.

There’s just one thing missing from this project now, a Battle Report.
