Another quick one today – and another pair of terrain bits I started just before last month’s Terrain Challenge by Dave Stone concluded – but completed a little late, in the first days of this month – a pair of Fountains from Mantic’s Terrain Crate Temple set. (And yes, I got two of the sets). I was originally going to paint them differently, but decided to go identical so they can easily be used on the same table. These will be pretty versatile – they work for historicals, fantasy, moderns, and sci-fi – as our lovely spokemodels here illustrate. Hell, I could even see these in a trashed urban area in something like Fallout 3 or 4….
Two posts in the same day? Yeah, I don’t like doing it this way, but I want to catch up rather than have the September posts run halfway through October (like August did to September). As it is, there’ll still be a few into October. Why not combine lots of stuff into fewer posts? I used to do that, but I like each thing to have its own post mostly because it makes things a ton easier for me when I go back looking for specific posts and/or models, so I’ll combine stuff from the same lines or that work thematically closely, but these fountains don’t play well with the mechanical whatsit from the previous post, so they each get their own…
Very nice! 🙂 Looks like there’s real water in them!

Excellent work mate, the green algae effect in the fountains give a total sense of realism

Thanks Dave. The only tricky part was working out how much green to use.

I like the fountains a lot, also the miniatures give a great idea of their scale!

Keep the updates coming, mate! We will take them however you want to share them. The water looks really nice and so do the fountains for that matter. I’d be curious as to how you painted that part of the fountains if you don’t mind sharing 🙂
