So a barrow had to happen… Of course, me being me and not wanting to have a sizeable bit of unplayable terrain, I wanted an interior… More words as ever on the blog anevilgiraffe.blogspot.com #wargamescenery #fiveleaguesfromtheborderlands #dragonrampant #wargamesterrain #oathmarkminiatures

Well, after a meh month finished with some crappy hot weather, finally finished the last tiles for the map and I had a final tile… after some thought, canvassing on LAF and some very good suggestions I decided to go with a lost world plateau just for fun. #fiveleaguesfromtheborderlands

Still more tiles… the last four from the first wave and the start of the coastal tiles proper…

More tiles… the inevitable mountains, including 2 river sources, another full forest tile, another moor tile and 3 marsh tiles, including another 2 river sources and a marsh estuary - which is a clue to what else is coming up.

Bloody character limit… Skaven warlock and rat ogres, I can find a use for them I think. Certainly at £31 less than the store value for the rat ogres.

Next batch - mainly woods. The group shots are very useful as it gives me a better idea of how it’s coming together. As ever, word count - check the blog for what’s different. #mightyempires #fiveleaguesfromtheborderlands

Next batch, marsh, moors and a couple of bits to make up numbers in the batch. Points of interest - my own little Isle of Ely, standing stones, ruins and an isolated moor hall/farm. Last pic is everything so far… #mightyempires #fiveleaguesfromtheborderlands

River tiles done. A bit of shine still, and some touch ups needed, but I love how a good matt varnish makes it. The eagle eyed will notice the town has grown a dock area, which should double for river or coast (when that inevitably happens). #mightyempires #fiveleaguesfromtheborderlands

And a woodland village tile, not sure how to do the grass yet, and contemplating extending the wooded sides down the side with my finger. An original Mighty Empires village tile with an extra street from Irregular. They match quite nicely. #mightyempires #fiveleaguesfromtheborderlands

I needed a change… so my homemade Mighty Empires lite to act as a Five Leagues campaign map. I’m basing the tiles on what terrain I have so will be river, village/farm, plains and forest initially. Fluff and details on the blog as always. #mightyempirestiles #fiveleaguesfromtheborderlands

Being unemployed is getting the back log sorted. Ok, so not very movie accurate, but the one that is available is part of a pack and I’m not buying half a dozen minis for just one, so a trip to Etsy and a more buff looking mountainy goat for Black Phillip…

Another dive into the leadpile, a cockatrice from Bifrost Minis (via Warbases). Lovely little mini.

An original Citadel Dwarf from 1986, dug up from my childhood collection, dipped for an excessive amount of time (I forgot) and repainted - ironically exactly as he was but hopefully a bit better than 13 year old me. #oldhammer #warhammerpainting #dwarves

some bridge additions to the river I’d previously made, which of course would mean failing to match the colour of the water and I’d end up doing them all again, again. More detail on the blog anevilgiraffe.blogspot.com/2025/11/buil... #wargameterrain #wargamescenery

A quick WIP of the latest Hammer homage. The greenstuff is well past its best, but quite pleased with them. Balls - forgot this place doesn’t like landscape pictures… sigh anevilgiraffe.blogspot.com/2025/08/capt... #thesilverbayonet #hammerhorror #napoleonichorror #folkhorror #28mmminiatures

More market stalls - a mix of scratch made and 3D bits again. Fruit & Veg got an upgrade, butchers and tailors. A random water trough as well… More pics on Insta or the blog… #wargamescenery #wargameterrain #scatterterrain

Wallpaper again - but a decent result. Well I committed at any rate. This was an Easter project, posting now though. More on the blog and instagram. Anyhoo, this is Seriano Pietra Wallpaper, from here: ukwallpaper.co.uk/products/ser... #wargamesterrain #wargamescenery #mordheimscenery

Finished Market Hall - well pretty much finished. Anything else will just be furniture and not bolted down. Windows added (badly). And a chest to fill some dead space.

Market stalls - a mix of scratch made, 3D bits and Crooked Dice chests and Oshiro plates & bowls. Fruit & Veg, cheese monger (with the most common cheese of the 17th century - Cheshire), pamphleteer and pottery. More pics on Insta or the blog… #wargamescenery #wargameterrain #scatterterrain

Some scatter - tents from Renedra and various trade goods from Ainsty. There were a lot of single wool/cotton(?) bundles and the L shaped stack, so I stuck five of the singles into the square stack for ease. #wargameterrain #wargamescenery #scatterterrain

A mountain of scatter. 3D prints from Etsy that paint up lovely. The various baskets will end up on tables for the market place. Sacks & Baskets & Barrels - www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1... Barrels - www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1... #wargamescenery

Slop bucket and straw, courtesy of an old toothbrush and a nice set of 3D printed market goods from Etsy. An empty wicker basket plus some loose oranges from the Temu trees I did add a nice touch to the orange trees. The rest of the set is in progress, carrots, grain and a lot of fennel…

A splash of colour… much needed. I also think the plaster cracks need to be toned down a bit… but that’s another day… #wargamescenery #wargameterrain

An Evil Giraffe @anevilgiraffe.bsky.social · 21/12/2024
Paint on the timbers and plaster done, although it doesn’t match the earlier timber frame buildings but none of those paints exist anymore and a bit of variation can’t hurt. Need a few more dressing bits for the interior. I’d like some period posters for the market area, if anyone knows of any…

Rippy (AKA The Red) - Australian horror about a zombie kangaroo rampaging through an isolated outback town. If that concept alone doesn’t make you want to watch it, it also stars Michael Biehn as a crazed recluse. Trailer - youtu.be/SmwWQuIO-98?...

And just because the original "green" (though it's grey and buff putties in this case) shows the detail a little better: here's King Edgar, highland elephant chief in closeup.
