Agyptian Temple¶
The parts are mostly done. I need to do two more castings to finish them.
I again use a 5mm MDF board for a base and bevelled the edges.
The edges were then strengthened and sealed with filler.

Agyptian Temple¶
I also have all the parts cast for a Temple and started constructing it.
I started by assembling the roof.
Next I assembled the walls.
Then came the columns.

Agyptian Pyramid¶
The next level
had to come to the same level as the inner walls - worked out well :-)
I glued some tiles to the floor, the rest was sprinkled with sand.
At some places I piled the sand, to represent small piles thrown up by the wind. The sand was loosly piled, then drenched in thinned PVA with some dish liquid added to break up the surface tension.
The next level I glued as two Ls, one of which was glued to the upper part, the other will be glued to the lower part.
So far it is still loose, as with it glued in place I would not be able to fit two of the inner walls into place.
All put together.
Next up comes painting.

Agyptian Pyramid¶
I finished the construction of the 4 inner walls. They will only be glued together/into place once painted.
Here are the cast blocks for the pyramid's outer walls.
I started by gluing the different wall segments seperately.
As a base, I use a 5mm MDF piece. I marked the outline of the pyramid,
then bevelled the edges.
Here, the 5 segments of the first level are glued into place.
Second layer added.

Agyptian Pyramid¶
Over the last months I cast a lot of Hirst Arts stuff, now I start having enough parts together to get building.
One of the projects I cast blocks for is an Agyptian Pyramid, using Sand Blasted Pyramid Mold #92 and Egyptian Pyramid Accessory Mold #96.
I started with the construction of the inner chamber.

Board and Miniatures¶
I didn't post in quite a while about this project, but wasn't idle either. I did cast quite a lot of Hirst Arts stuff over time, sometimes doing 3 castings a day, sometimes doing none for 2 months.
Slowly, I am getting the parts I need.
The game has the option to place barrels on the board, which you can shoot and then blow up. I use the barrel from mold Cargo Bay Accessory Mold #302, which looks a bit forlorn on a 1.5" square tile - so I decided to place three on one tile.

Mythical Agyptian Terrain¶
I gloss varnished the models, then applied oil washes.
After a layer of matt varnish, I added the same bushes and flock I put on the miniature's bases as well.
Done.

Mythical Agyptian Terrain¶
I basecoated the sand in ochre brown, the structures in sand.
The base was then drybrushed in ochre.
This was followed by a drybrush of white over everything.

Mythical Agyptian Terrain¶
The bases have been sanded and then sealed with watered down PVA. As my castings are not really perfect, there were some gaps here and there and a few air bubbles. To cover these, I put some filler into a jar and watered it down to a paste. This I then applied to cover the gaps, and then stippled the surface to try and blend it in to Bruce's blasted sand surface.

Mythical Agyptian Terrain¶
Flat as can be! Once more it showed that keeping 'trash' is good for Terrain building :-)
In addition to the sphinxes, I built two moniliths and some pillars. The bases of the pillars allow for placing two pieces adjacent, and then placing an additional loose block connecting them.
