Hobby Update 06/09/18- Sector Imperialis Terrain Completed

Today's hobby update features a couple of the terrain pieces that I have been working on recently for a new Sector Imperialis board. 

These were assembled using the Games Workshop Sector Imperialis terrain kits that I had lying around and based on MDF. 

With the models based, I then glued sand to the base. I then coated the base with a mix of water, PVA and a little washing up liquid. This was on old tip that I got from an issue of White Dwarf. The washing up liquid helps the PVA to soak into the sand layer and gives it a good seal. 



After the layer was completely dry, I undercoated it with Standard Mechanicus Grey. I then gave it a drybrush with grey, then white. 

















After that, I painted in some details in the ruins, including the skulls, some metal and the doors. Once the painting was done, I added some flock to the base to add a bit of colour. 












That has two of the ruins complete, so I have two more to do to finish off this batch.

  1. Great looking terrain. That ought to fill up a good portion of table when it's all complete!

    1. Cheers Dave! I've got another 4 or 5 to complete, so should give me plenty of board coverage.

    1. Thanks Siph! I didn't want to add too much rubble, as I still wanted them to be functional.

  4. Those look great! As much as I do love the new Sector Imperialis line, the old one was pretty awesome, too.

    1. I have been tempted by the new stuff too. I haven't picked up a bunch of terrain in a while, might need to see what I should work on next.
