Upon Yonder Window
MODELLING STAINED GLASS WINDOWS

With the splendour of Grail chapels and other Bretonnian buildings, stained glass windows are a common sight (when not destroyed by battle). Ty Finocchiaro shows you how to model them here.

Stained glass is a common sight in the worlds of Warhammer, Warhammer 40,000, and even The Lord of The Rings Strategy Battle Game. When constructing scenery, stained glass can add a level of detail that really makes your building or ruin more realistic. Below, I've given you three ways to model stained glass.

Three Ways to Make Stained Glass

Step Three

 

Step One
Paint, photograph, or scan a stained glass image. Size it to fit on your computer, then print it out in colour.

Step Two
Cut the printed image out. Leave a small edge that can be used for gluing.

Step Three
Glue the printout in place, and you're done. Sure, it's not transparent, but it looks nice!
