Been making scenery like mad for my Warzone Imperials to cower behind fight over.
stick sum trees n sum cardboard. Paint the card board. Fine.
the sprues from the resin miniatures make cool looking concrete barricades with bits of wire support coming out of it. Sorted
that's the end of my know-how, so have just bought a load of sandbag bunkers from ebay, plus a scenery add-on pack for infinity. It's all just folded cardboard but looks the part and less than a tenner inc. Postage? G'wan then. I'd recommend it to any of the less competent modellers out there like me.
now I just need an opponent...

If it's good enough, you could put them into production, and then we could have a club vote (held over 5 consecutive AGMs) on whether to buy some for the scenery box at the back of the shed....

If a production line can be set up , i was thinking more of giving one to each new member with the option to "buy-in" for more.

Genius. Unfortunately my efforts are amateur at best, so would only recommend issuing them to new people as a punishment for late payment. I also only have this 'summertime' flock (which some of you may have seen on my Battletech models), so the stuff I've already done kinda glows in the dark (alien flora???).
It'll do pig. It'll do.

I will, however, smack some pics up once I've finished to entice you all into joining yet another gaming system that we don't have time to play and can't afford even if we did (mainly because I've already bought the bastard, but also because it's well good)

Dear christ. Ordered more ruins, sandbags, tank traps and barricades.
And THAT, children, is why you shouldn't shop after a few drinks.
As an aside, also ordered a Scar Symmetry album, cos you can't proper wargame without some Scandinavian heavy metal.

Italeri from Amazon. Plastic kits, so have to put together and paint yourself.

They do good kits do italeri. Sand bags: putty into balls, press into a bit of sack/textured cloth (not you wife's jumper - note that) Done

You assume some sort of artistic ability. I think I've bought enough to keep me going for a while. Painting them up now and will post pics when they look less sh!t.

Just bought some more baracades for my pirates so they don't fall into a giant bear trap again.

I felt that I needed some rocks. So i thought I'd just get some rocks from the garden. But real rocks don't look like fake rocks trying to look like real rocks, so I painted over the natural rocky colours with a painted rocky colour, but then the rocks just looked like fake rocks done badly, so i drybrushed and inkwashed them so that the real rocks would look less like fake rocks, or even worse, 'real' real rocks, and more like fake rocks that I intended to look like fake rocks all along.
Anyway. Got rocks.

I'm not sure my men want to go to 'those' types of battlefields. Except for Corporal Shmitt. We have our own thoughts about him.

Joking aside, light flesh drybrush. Dab with real wet mud. Let it dry. Take a toothbrush to it

Guide to making polyfiller useable again? It's gone dry. Do sir the crap out of it? Add water? Chuck it away?

Depends on what type it is? If it's power based you can brake it up and then grind it back to powder but it will be hard work and never works as well. If it was paste then in the bin it goes
