Clearing some space on my WIP shelf I have managed to complete the Dark Age Village I started in 2015,
I say 'finished' but what I mean is i have completed the first set of buildings. The buildings will also work well with Erin, Warhammer Fantasy and other medieval settings and
My original inspiration was a set put together by Battle brush Studios
I ended up contacting Warbases who made the MDF buildings and sending them the link and asking if they could make me up the same set, right down to the bases!
Warbases were extremely helpful and were able to make up the order and would recommend them for both quality of products and good value range
MDF building with Coffee stirrers. The wood has been scored to add texture and take the paint better
Pigsty WIP
Bark Chippings wil form the basis of the small hill for the watch tower
Wattle fencing made for woven wire
The Competed set of buildings with flannel roofing for Thatching
First test building. I went with quite weathered and desaturated look to match up with the troops and also the green boards I have already made up
Small well I made a long time ago but will probably make a larger one to act as the village centre piece
Figures and terrain on green board

House
House with covered area with wattle fence
Watchtower on low hill
Between coats of paint I also made up three crop areas, sections of door mat cut and mounted on foamcard. Mud added to the edges and then grassed.
Test set up with my green boards and trees. Using the lake I also made up a small dock out of coffee stirrers
Small raiding party attack the settlement who can only muster a few defenders
Next on the build list for terrain will be a Barn, raised grain store, a stone bridge and a blacksmiths as well as some more green boards
