Introduction

This article is about making walls, this differs from the Ruined Wall article in that this is about making complete wall section pieces, perhaps for use as a city or village outer wall or even a castle wall.

Step 1

This article makes use Balsa wood sheets that are about 3 inches wide and about 1/4 inches thick. The length of the wall piece is up to you. The one being made here is about 6 inches long.

You will also need some plastic wall sections. I got these from my local model railway hobby store. These ones are by a company called Wills and are Coarse Stone.

Step 2

Cut the Balsa wood sheet to the desired length, in this case 6 inches long. Apply PVA glue to the backside of a sheet of plastic wall and stick to the Balsa sheet you cut. Completely cover both sides in this manner.

Step 3

Cut a rectangle of Mounting card 1 inch wide and 6 inches long. Glue the wall section along the centre.

Step 4

Cut some small square of cereal box card. These should by about 1/2 by 1/2 inch. Using PVA, glue these along the top of the wall.

Step 5

Spray the whole piece black and allow to dry.

Step 7

Heavily drybrush Codex Grey all over, followed by a drybrush of Fortress Grey and finally a very light drybrush of Skull White. Only highlight certain small areas with the white.

Step 8

Apply PVA glue over the top and edges of the base and sprinkle over some Green Flock shaking of the excess.

There you have a basic wall piece.
