Making ruined WW2 Buildings

Postby Centurio Marcus T » Tue Jul 12, 2011 10:31 am

Gday all Very shortly i will be working on a Stalingrad scenario and will need plenty of ruined buildings :? So i would like to know if anyone has tips on making suitable terrain for the above mentioned scenario? If not a manufacturer who makes reasonably priced terrain for such a scenario.

Marcus,
I am curretly in the progress of building a war torn "Grozny". I havebuilt buildings with foam board and used "blue styrofoam insulation boards" as supporting columns.These have been pinned (Nails) and then glued. I have then filled gaps with fillar and then painted over with home made masonry paint (Cheap acrylic with fine sand mixed in) and used paper clips metal for steel reinforcement. I have then sprayed and painted the whole building light and dark grey and drybrushed accordingly. For rubble i have used slate/sand and homemade concrete.I have mixed up some filler (powdered) in a bucket and left to dry then broke out - placed in a carrier bag and smashed up into smallish pieces and then painted looks good. In the rubble i have added bits of plasticar cut up for bricks - bits of paper clip for reinforcing, thin cable etc and small plastic tubing for pipes etc. Will try and post pics soon.
