Hello all, im new :tongue:
I started collecting epic a few months ago with an accompanying warseer plog, since most the responses to the warseer plog seemed to be TacCom members anyway I thought I might as well move here. Hi :grin:

Ive mainly been concentrating on the minis up to this point, so aside from a BOTFA hill and the gothic ruins sprues I had no scale specific epic terrain. As of two days ago ive resolved to change that:
Storage Silos:

Start of a modular trench and bunker network (still drying), plan to have around 100cm of trench on a 50cm frontage with 7 bunkers, I will go back over with milliput to add in sandbags etc and add  the bunkers. The trenches are probably unrealistically wide and shallow, but this makes moving stands of mean easier


And a rather unsuccessful ‘agri-dome’ - it needs a wider, lower dome really, ill probably try again if I find some bigger domes. Just don’t tell the black templars that being a genetically engineered super warrior and a keen gardener are mutually exclusive...

Very cool terrain mate, nice detail, well done!

I'd also love to see more of those Black Templars, they look VERY cool.

Hi and welcome,

I love the modular trench and bunker network, nice work. The Storage Silos look excellent too. The Agri-dome does look a little small but it wouldn't stop me using it as it still looks great.

Welcome home.
Nice terrain, I'll echo the 'can I see the minis' too

Rustled up some more terrain during the day, first up is a chaos portal/stone circle/alter thingy:
Seen from above:

Epidermius, guarded by LRs, pokes the portal to see if it moves:

Also found 2 more pots while trying to find bits for more terrain, so thought I might as well make 2 more silos, based so as to fit in with the other two or be placed elsewhere.


Iintend to start posting/geting advice on some models in epic 6mm, although possibly not for a few weeks as ill be on holiday. If you wanna see some of them in the meantime my warseer plog was here, DONT reply on it though as its now dead, ill be continuing it here :))

That's all nice looking stuff.  I especially like the Chaos portal/stone circle/alter thingy, as you put it.

The agri-bubble is quite pleasing.

The portal is superb! How did you create the effect in the central portal?  :agree:
