Dragons Teeth

Ever wondered how to make Dragons Teeth? Cutting them from foam can be very tiresome.

Get a rubber waffle pan and simply cast them.

Below are a few pics of the pan and a cast with Airfix beach obstacles, German soldiers and a Revell Panzer III for scale.

Who would of thought it could be that simple.

Workshop

Here is a Workshop I have been working on.

Needed a few outbuildings for some scenarios and hence these were created.

Barn

Real life has kept me busy but I have managed to get in a few hours here and there to do something war games related.

Here is a Barn I have been working on.

Row of Houses

This is a building I started awhile back and was featured in the Roof post. I have weathered the roof and plan to do the Normandy Houses roofs in the same fashion. The tiles that is.

 Front face, need to weather the walls but not sure how to go about it.

Rear face.

 

Completed roof.

W.I.P. 2 Normandy House 2

Here is another installment.

The windows and doors sprayed brown.

Floors planking painted.

Here the house is plastered using PVA glue and playsand and painted using acrylic paint. The plastering process I had to do quickly due to the heat therfore no pic showing just the sand and glue.

Doors and windows inserted.

Floors placed inside, the are lift out.

Roof and chimney. The roof to be done as per my roof post Roof

Front face side by side with the blue house.

Rear face side by side with the blue house.

Only roofs need to be completed.

Normandy House

Here are a few photos of a Normandy house. I have decided to go with a more colourful approach on these new designs. It is still a work in progress.

The first two are of the front face.

The last two are of the rear face. 

This is the first of the new designs and I hope to complete another house, cafe and two shops in the near future.

Church Windows

I thought I would add some character to my village church, so I added some stain glass windows. After printing some stain glass windows on plastic film I was ready to start..

Windows glued into place.

 A complete shot of the church.

An evening shot.
 

A simple idea that adds so much character.

Church

Here are a few photos of my scratch built church. It was built from 3mm laser cut MDF board, painted with PVA glue, sprinkled with fine sand and painted. The roof was made from cereal box cut into strips and then glued to the MDF roof base. All roofs are removable.

I will post a  photo showing all the houses and church as a village setup as soon as I have completed my row of town houses.

Houses

Here are a few houses I built.  They were designed before I knew how to calculate the proper scale. Their sizes were calculated from the Italeri Houses and therefore might be on the larger side\scale.

House 1

House 2

House 3

House 4

Still a few finishing touches remain, but I'll still get to those..
