Secretarial Association head office - Warbases building

 So, Warbases have a range of pre-war and wartime buildings. One of them is the Reynolds Workshop.

Now this is going to be used as the head office of the Secretarial Association in The City.

A Citroen 2CV parked outside. The windows and doors still need to be undercoated.

The exterior has been sprayed with Plasticote Rust effect followed by Colour Forge Ghoul Grey.

Still undecided about what to do with the roof - they have large windows, but that is not much fun if you are in a hot climate with the sun beating down.

A number of Crooked Dice aircon units will be added to this wall and a sign advertising the Secretarial Association.

The Queen's Guard - Oathmark Human Heavy Infantry

As previously noted, I bought the pre-order offer for the Oathmark Human Heavy Infantry from North Star.

This included the metal Queen, Magician, Musician and three heroes.

It was not much of a leap to theme the figure build around the Queen, in heavy armour.

This is the first four plastics and the metal queen figure.

As this will be led by a queen figure, I thought a standard would be a nice touch. Though there are rules for standards in one of the expansion books, I thought to use it to highlight that this was a queen rather than one of the other champion figures.

So I needed a standard. The ones in the human sets are a bit weedy, so I had a look through my other sprues and thought the one from the Gripping Beast Goth Elite Cavalry looked useful (the cavalry were being used for Elf Heavy Cavalry).

The standard arm was drilled out to take 1.6mm brass rod, as was the standard.

The Heavy Infantry set does not include a left hand standard bearer sword arm, so I used one from the standard infantry set.

The first two ranks.

Getting close to an Oathmark mini army (heavy infantry and a King/Queen character are very points heavy). The mini-army is the Queen and nineteen heavy infantry warriors. 

Just one rank to go.

Warbases' MOD Hut

 

This is a Warbases' MOD Hut C. It might be a bit late for Flat Caps and Truncheons, having a more 1930's feel.

Like previous builds, the interior was sprayed with Colour Forge Ghoul Grey.
The windows and doors were masked up and the exterior sprayed with Plastikote Rust effect paint.
This was then covered with Army Painter Fur Brown.
The brick work was painted with mixtures of various greys, Army Painter Chaotic Red, black and Army Painter Fur Brown.

The brickwork was washed with Citdel Agrax Earthshade.
The roof was sprayed with Colour Forge Ghoul Grey and a misting of Citadel Chaos Black.
The doors and windows were sprayed with Army Painter Angel Green

This building has doors at both ends.

It has windows only on one of the long sides.

Mantic Plague Aberration

 A Big Plague monster from Mantic. I think it is an Aberration, but this particular figure is discontinued.

It is a multipiece vinyl figure, which are a bit of a nightmare to clean up. 

I needed to fill in some of the joins and where there are some mould lines, this is why it has taken a bit of a while to complete.

The figure was undercoated with Army Painter Chaotic Red. Ant gaps were filled in with Chaotic Red. The figure was then dry brushed with Citadel Tyrant Bone.

It was then washed with Citadel Khorne wash.

Warbases Brick Store Room

Birmingham's finest investigate claims heavily armed miscreants are in the factory.

They check round the Brick Store Room.

The Warbases' Brick Store Room is a simple kit.

Once assembled, the interior was sprayed with Colour Forge Ghoul Grey.
The windows and doors were masked up and the exterior sprayed with Plastikote Rust effect paint.
This was then covered with Army Painter Fur Brown.
The brick work was painted with mixtures of various greys, Army Painter Chaotic Red, black and Army Painter Fur Brown.

The window sills were painted with Vallejo London Grey.
The doors and windows were sprayed with Army Painter Angel Green
