Hi everyone,

this is a diorama my gf and I made recently. The orcs are painted by me and the imperium guys by her. It was a gift for our friends. My camera unfortunately swallowed most of the red highlights. Just imagine the imperium to be highlighted 4-5 times. The river was very difficult to create, since we used the artificial water for the very first time. It required 4 tries to achieve the final result (which still leaves a lot of room for improvement). Hope you like it!

Thank you for the positive feedback, everyone!

@fracas: We are working on the gf-thingie ;-)

@BlackEd: Creating the mountains was surprisingly easy! We used styrodur, simply carved out the mountain and the rocks with a sharp knife und drybrushed it with various shades of grey.
The actual challenge was glueing the rocks to the styrodur base. We couldn´t find an adhesive which glues the parts together without dissolving the styrodur (we had the same problem with the artificial water. It has to be heated prior to being poured, so ultimately we had to coat the riverbed with green stuff to prevent contraction of the styrodur and resulting air bubbles). In the end we settled with pinning the rocks in place using sewing pins. Working with the styrodur was in fact so simple, cheap and yielded such nice results, that we can´t wait to build more warmaster terrain :-)

Whoa wait, whoa, what.

I assumed these were just old school warhammer 28mm models.  I am having to rub my eyes and look again.

Mindblowing.

I am speechless! The quality and the detail you have achieved is simply amazing!!!!

one thing though, I just noticed your gf's arabians and I would love to replicate the cream and brown colours on them. could you share with us the colours she used?
