So i have started construction on the next table for the WTC Warmachine. My next table is going to be a construction site of a cathedral dedicated to Menoth.
The idea is that you fight your battle between the unfinished cathedral, At your flanks you would have the unfinised towers, with crane's and some gauntrie's (no idea if its a real word but google translate told me to use it). At the other side you would have the altar with the choir (don't know if they use this word for it in English once again blame google translate) and in the middel section where you would be playing you would have some unfinished walls and pillars, some gauntrie's and building matirials.
here are some sketches i made to give me some direction at how i wanted to get it build.
Now to get the cathedral itself build i needed a quick way of making lots of stones. insulation foam was an option but it would take a long time to cut and i find it hard to work very precise with it. I had worked with hirst art moulds in the past but knew that if i was going to make this building out of it it was going to take ages. so i took some cheap fake lego's i got from my grandfather about 15 year ago and used a hobby hand drill to rought them up. then i made some mold's out of them and started casting.
here are some of the lego's i used to make the mould.

and here is what i casted this weekend.
construction is wel on its way, in hind sight i don't think i saved much time, it still takes a lot of time to cast all of the peaces. the end result isn't 100% what i hoped it would be but it will have to do. i started construction on the first tower and man is going to be heavy!
that looks awesome!
