| There are many unlicensed drinking dens in the streets of Helsreach. |
I'm continually on the lookout for more terrain suited to Helsreach on Logan's World. The backwater fringe adobe structures mixed with ramshackle tech really appeals to me.
I was really pleased to hear that Fogou Models had another, slightly larger building in the works.
The new building is a two-storey affair, again with separate doors and lift-off roofs. Mine was supplied with the 5 jars shown, which are waiting some details before being finished.
I decided to paint my version up as a low-rent bar. I used the same techniques to paint the white adobe, adding some colourful stripes by masking off the areas to get a straight(ish) line.

The sign and doors got some weathering (sponges and washes again). I attempted to mimic the lettering from some of the Helsreach illustrations on the sign.
The Fogou buildings really are a dream to work with. Solid, easy to assemble and produced in an excellent resin that takes paint well. The texturing on the adobe buildings is great, as is the detailing. I really hope there are more buildings to come!
Such a great cohesion, fantastic, I also spot an old friend here despite him turning his face the other way !
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm really enjoying putting these together and creating a nice set of terrain. Old friends do turn up in the strangest places ;)
DeleteI really like the weathering on these buildings Jon. Very snazzy indeed :)
ReplyDeleteThanks buddy :) If you're a good boy, you can see them close up in a few weeks.
DeleteLooks great! Are you doing the BOYL Helsreach game with Curtis? I can only get down on the Sunday and wasn't sure if the narrative game was Friday/Saturday only?
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to join in the jetbike game on Saturday. I'll definitely be around.
DeleteThe colours, the stripe pattern, the weathering, the whole approach. Everything is delightful here. Inspirational.
ReplyDeleteThanks Suber! It's amazing what the stripes add I think. A relatively understated white building becomes really eye catching.
DeleteAnother corker! You're right - Adobe and rusted tech have a real nice feel (I guess we all just love tattooine at heart!)
ReplyDeleteCan't beat Tattooine as a location I reckon :)
DeleteGreat work to make those building look that bit more realistic. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Glad you like them.
DeleteNice job with the horizontal stripes on the walls.
ReplyDeleteI can see these making good early Ork buildings...
I like stripes :)
DeleteThey'd be great as orks buildings. A few glyphs and they'd be sorted.
Excellent addition to an already great looking town. I'm imagining a RT version of the small card saloon from the Deadwood series where Hickock was killed.
