Finished the additional wall section, and also drybrushed the stone work with lighter colors to better replicate limestone. EDIT: I'm still not satisfied with the color - I want it to have a warmer (golden-ish?) hue, like most of the photos and illustrations I've seen.
I could add a corner piece to the wall section on the left as in the reconstructed image below. However, I plan on using the terrain on a smaller playing area - maybe even only 3x3', so don't want the walls to extend too far.I ended up using some scrap white styrofoam for the additional wall section - it worked out even better than the adhoc pieces of the earlier sections. It was easier to cut out the stones, and the porous areas gave them a weathered look.Decided to add stone work to the interior of the walls since the scenario will have some attackers already inside the citadel. Plan on using One-Hour Ancient & Medieval Skirmish Wargames rules which focuses on hand-to-hand combat, and movement to objectives will be limited. One objective will be the megaron located within the walls - to possibly either capture or kill the king inside.Thanks for stopping by, and wishing you all the best.

DeleteSplendid looking piece of terrain, try a dry brush of a sandy colour to get closer to limestone? Looking forward to the palace too!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks, Iain! Yes, it's had to get the exact tone for the stones - but, then again, I think a lot of photos show it with sunlight tinting the colors too. Kind regard, Dean
DeleteTry a wash with GW seraphim sepia maybe. Would work well over the drybrushing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, Mike! Kind regards, Dean
