Welcome to my Wild West Exodus terrain gallery! The large tables below were commissioned by Outlaw Miniatures and Warcradle Studios for their 35mm skirmish wargame. If you have any questions, or would like to contact me about commissioning your own terrain, please message me on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook. Thanks for following my hobby blog!
WILD WEST EXODUS HARBOR
This harbor is a 4' x 4' board, commissioned by Warcradle Studios. The buildin
gs are magnetized and removable so all the elements can be swapped out as necessary. You can see more detail shots and progress pictures in this post: Terrain Showcase, Wild West Exodus Harbor
WILD WEST EXODUS HEX SWAMP
This 3' x 3' board was commissioned by Warcradle Studios for use in gaming and photography. It features a Stonehenge-like alter rising atop a rocky perch, surrounded by marshland. You can see more detail shots and progress pictures in this post: Wild West Exodus Hex Swamp
WILD WEST EXODUS WATCHER HIVE
The Watchers are a race of aliens that operate from an inter-dimentional hive ship. This Watcher hive was built for Warcradle Studios and is a two-part board– a 2' x 4' mountain section inspired by the infamous Devil's Tower, and a 4' x 4' board with the hive interior. The interior is lit with LEDs and features a few infinity mirrors that create the illusion of a much deeper space. You can see all of the detail shots and some progress pictures in this post: WWX Watcher Hive, The Final Board
WILD WEST EXODUS MINE AND FOREST
This table measures 4' x 4' and the forest top lifts off to reveal the mine tunnels below. All of the trees are removable, and the set included a few mine cars that fit on the tracks in the mine. The table was commissioned by Outlaw Miniatures for use in gaming and photography.
WILD WEST EXODUS INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX
This table was commissioned by Outlaw Miniatures and represents one of Dr. Carpathian's RJ-1027 processing facilities. The set consists of a flat 4' x 4' board, a few junk piles and four modular buildings that can connect via a series of gantry walkways. Scroll down to see the buildings in more detail.

First of all your work is incredible and these boards are no exception.
ReplyDeleteI particularly like the warrior nation settlement. The flocking on your boards is always top notch, I find flocking is something which is easy to do poorly but difficult to really well. Do you mind sharing what products you used and maybe your process for applying the flock such as seen on the warrior nation board?
Hi, I Just picked up some of these buildings. Pretty sure your stuff is how the image they are using to advertise the product. Any chance you could share how you painted the generic buildings of the town? I love the effect.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
One Word! AWESOME!!
ReplyDeleteyou inspire me!
ReplyDeleteAwesome.....
ReplyDeleteBest ever ... I bow my head .... Keep it on! Chris
ReplyDeleteThe new mine and shack table looks amazing! Which color paints do you use on the wooden buildings?
ReplyDeleteThanks! The wooden buildings are drybrushed with a mix of browns and greys going dark to light, and then a few boards are picked out with washes of brown ink. Then it's drybrushed with a lighter beige color to get the edges to pop.
DeleteSomething like this?
DeleteBlack primer
Battlefield Brown (very heavy drybrush) -->
Bloodstone (?) (heavy drybrush) -->
Gun Corps Brown (medium drybrush) -->
Bastion Grey (light drybrush) -->
(missing a grey?) -->
Jack Bone (extreme highlights)
Or if that's giving away too many secrets, I understand. :)
That's pretty close, although I don't use Bloodstone on the wood other than rust drips. It's a very organic process, and I'll go back and forth between the browns and greys as I paint, so there's no definitive formula to it.
DeleteWhat size track did you use for the train and the Mine
ReplyDeleteThe train is unique scratch-built using resin ties and styrene T-beams. The smaller mine track is HO-scale, I think. If you're building your own, my recommendation would be to pick a size that looks right and build mine cars on sets of matching train wheels.
DeleteFor the interior of the mine, what method did you use to texture the walls to look like rock??
ReplyDeleteIt's Insulation foam scraped with a wire brush and then spackled with wood filler putty to cover over any seams.
DeleteMuch appreciated!
DeleteThanks! If you're talking about the wood planks, that's all basswood panels. The metal framing is plastruct styrene strips of various sizes.
ReplyDeleteTextured plasti-card, painted by me.
DeleteMost of those details are scratch-built or sculpted & resin cast.
