How to Paint Warhammer Terrain and Scenery Painting terrain is one of the most effective ways to improve the look of your tabletop.

How to Paint Dead Wood on Miniatures – Terrain Trees and Weathered Logs This article continues my work on painting terrain, focusing on dead wood and tree bark. I’ve used this method for smaller elements such as tree stumps and fallen logs on miniature bases, but it works equally well for larger terrain pieces. I generally prefer my terrain to be slightly darker, as this helps brighter miniatures stand out more clearly on the tabletop.

  How I Paint Ancient Bronze Bells are found throughout the lore of the Age of Sigmar. Whether it is the Bell of Lamentation in Azyr, the Screaming Bells of the Skaven, or the Sonorous Tocsins of Nurgle, they always seem to be present. New to painting Warhammer Miniatures → Start here: Warhammer Painting Made Simple For other miniature painting guides → Faction Painting Hubs One of my favourite pieces of scenery from Warcry is the bell tower. I like the rickety wooden platforms, stairs, and ladder. I also like that the bell is still suspended in its original stone tower, which was clearly ruined at some point in time. The bell tower always makes me think that there are Skaven nearby, and that if the bell begins tolling, then trouble is close at hand. As it is such a favourite piece, I wanted to give the bell a paint job that reflected the age I was trying to convey.

How to Paint White Marble I’ve returned to my painting guides for terrain with a look at how to paint white marble. I use this technique when painting statues so they stand out from the darker stone I normally use for ruins and buildings. I imagine that the people of the Mortal Realms would carve their gods and heroes from a shining white stone rather than a dark, brooding material.
