28mm Terrain - Tires, Objectives & Sandbags
I am always on the lookout for more 28mm terrain for my games to use as cover, objectives or for scenic purposes. I bought these pieces at Historicon 2017. They are all by Acheson Creations, who have a variety of well-priced resin terrain and buildings for many different eras. For example, all of my dark age buildings (April 2016 post) are by Acheson. I picked these out of a box with lots of small pieces; they were only $1 each.
I washed them in the dishwasher to remove the mold residue, then primed them with Wal-Mart spray paint, black for the tires, white for the others. I gave them a quick wash of black or white to cover any areas that the spray didn't fully cover. They painted up very quickly. The tire stacks got a dark gray drybrush. The sandbags were painted with Howard Hues Colonial Khaki, then a drybrush of Howard Hues WWI Russian Uniform. The weapons got various shades of gray, khaki and olive. All sealed with 2 coats of Testors Dullcote.
A 28mm miniature from my last post is included for scale.
Three identical stacks of tires. Useful as cover from enemies or zombie hordes.
A small fortified position, sandbags backed by a wooden frame. Perhaps a checkpoint outside a camp of surviviors.
The weapons caches will be used as objective markers in my Post-Apoc games.
Thanks for looking!

Nice, Jason! I am similarly addicted to Acheson... :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I have not seen the weapon piles before.
