So, I've decided to make my Warhammer Fantasy city of Altheim my main project for 2020, and thought I'd document it's progress here.
The original plan was just to recreate the old cardboard Warhammer Townscape buildings as more realistic iterations of themselves, one of which can be seen here:
However, the project has expanded and morphed into a plan to recreate an entire portion of a walled city on an 8'x4' table for the aforementioned buildings to sit on, as well as an entire range of townsfolk that live there. The eventual plan is to potentially use it for a participation game at an event at some point in the future, but we'll see about that when it's finished.
The plan for the city is as follows:
And, as you can see, I've currently got as far as building the walls and positioning them on the board:
And here's the walls in a bit more detail:
River end of the wall, showing the warning beacon and Harbourmaster's Office and home:
The Nordgate:
inner:
Outer:
The Ostgate:
Inner:
Outer:
The walls themselves are from the sadly now out of production modular castle from Tabletop Workshop, I was lucky enough to pick a load up when they first came out, years ago.
Next up will be the roads, which I'll be making using individual cobblestones...
