3D-printed Ork terrain

This week, I have some 3D-printed Ork terrain that I painted up for the Ork board at the gaming club. These were a really nice set that I ordered off ebay, which were a good quality print with little clean up required. I painted these up in a similar style to the GW Ork ruins. 

First was a basecoat of a dark brown. Then I painted in the coloured sections with acrylic paints, using green, black, blue and red sections. After that, I used Ryza rust in various sections, then drybrushed it with Leadbelcher to finish it off.

Terrain Showcase- UKTC Operation Alpha

 Today's terrain showcase is a set that I made for the Operation Alpha gaming mat from Pwork wargames. 

The base of this mat was an mdf tournament set that I got off of ebay. I wanted to style this the same as the gaming mat, so stuck on geometric shapes cut out of plasticard.

Terrain Showcase- Boarding Actions set

Today's showcase is the Boarding Actions terrain that I painted up for the gaming group. I was trying to figure out a good scheme for this set, when I came across an amazing painting tutorial by ZamPainting on twitter. 


This was exactly the sort of scheme I was looking for, as my plans were to go with blue or green walls, and this was a nice mix of the two. The tutorial was really easy to follow and I think it turned out really well. I was surprised how quickly I managed to get this done, especially as there are a ton of walls in the kit.

Terrain Showcase- Tournament Tables

 In the last year, I have been hosting some local 40k tournaments at the gaming club. These have been a lot of fun, and something I was keen to try out after getting the gaming club up and running. Our largest event so far has been Oxford Onslaught, which featured 34 players competing over 2 days. 

Here are some pics of the tables that were used at my tournament events.
