15mm Roof Tiles

I did think about how to paint the roof of my Total Battle Miniatures ruined row of three houses, in the end I thought that terracotta tiles would look very effective, probably more so than slate. So I gave the roof tiles a basecoat of Citadel Terracotta.

Looking at the Total Battle Miniatures photograph, I might repaint the “complete” roof with grey slate.

The next stage will be a dark wash.

Adding the detail, to the 15mm Ruined Houses

I have the ruined row of three houses and the ruined row of four houses, from Total Battle Miniatures.

Having given most of the model a basecoat, I am now painting in the details of the ruins, using Citadel Scorched Brown.

Once I have finished painted the ruins, I think I will add some additional detrius, broken beams and so on to add a little more detail.

Painting the 15mm Ruined Houses

I have the ruined row of three houses and the ruined row of four houses, from Total Battle Miniatures. Having cleaned the models, I gave the inside of the models a black undercoat and then masked the inside of the windows (with masking tape) before I give the model a white undercoat on the outer side of the model.

I then started on the basecoat of the various parts of the building, for the brown I used a Tamiya acrylic.

I used a thinned coat of paint, as I will be adding a drybrush and some washes.

15mm Ruined Houses

One of my Christmas presents was a couple of ruins from Total Battle Miniatures.

I got the ruined row of three houses and the ruined row of four houses.

What you get , if you go for the unpainted version is a nice resin casting.

The first stage was to wash the resin to remove the mould lubricant and then clean the flash from the casting, especially the windows and the doors.

They look like very nice clean castings and I think I may get some more to add to my ruined Normandy village for Flames of War.

So what did you get for Christmas?
