Finished Emplacement

CONSTRUCTION AND PAINTING

Stage 1

To create a fortification like the one shown here, cut a base out of hardboard and walls out of insulation board.

Step One

Step 2

Create plasteel reinforcements out of thin plasticard and add rivets by punching them out of plasticard with a small hole punch.

Step Two

Step 3

Add some final details to give your piece some character. We added textured plasticard flooring (available at better hobby shops) to our fortification. Prime the whole piece with black paint and drybrush Codex Grey, Fortress Grey, and Rotting Flesh on the walls. Paint the plasteel with Tin Bitz, Boltgun Metal, and a wash of Bestial Brown and Chestnut Ink to simulate rust.

Step Three

Step 4

The crates and barrels can be found in the Online Store.

Step Four
