More terrain today that had been waiting for the Oil Wash sessions at the end of last month for their completion. These are paid-for STLs from Wargame Forge over on MyMiniFactory.
Pretty straightforward painting method overall: Filler Primer, Primed Black, Sprayed with either Citadel’s Leadbelcher or Vallejo’s Gunmetal (I fogot which, preobably Vallejo). I then overpainted the red panels which I later stippled a subtle highlight onto. These will fit in very nicely with the other “Admech/Mechanicum” themed terrain I completed last year.
Then it was applying the Decals – which I took from some Admech and Mechanicum kits and a gloss varnish. (Much) later on it was time for oil wash part 1 (black/brown) and then aweek later part 2 (shades of orange/rust). Then a few days later, spray varnish to seal it all in and done.
Something I do like about these is that they’re pretty scale-agnostic. Now obviously being STL files, they can be embiggened as much as you like (or can fit on a build plate) – but even printed at Battletech Gothic scale, they still work ok with a variety of other models, scales and genres, as you can see in these photos.
I only printed one of the intact version. Perhaps I should have done two so I could have a larger refinery area on the board? I was thinking it’s too late as these are all finished, but I guess it wouldn’t be hard to print another one of these and the painting process wasn’t horrible – the biggest issue being getting the desk cleared for Oil Washing (and later, photography!)
These models are also pretty scale-agnostic as well. I’ll get some scale shots with models next to them up in a forthcoming post. And yet again, these were completed during the timeframe of Dave Stone’s Paint What You Got Challenge 25-26 – so have another shoutout, Dave!
