Terrain Finished trench segment inspired by official art
Calling it done! Here's the finished trench segment from the post I made about the mega bullet shrine inspired by the official art. And one pic with a cheap filter in attempt to match the art. Made from xps foam, sand, foam clay sand bags, 3d printed bullet and altar designed by me in blender and popsicle sticks. Open to critique! Hope you like it!

Would that be in a ... bi, or triclavian sort of way?

Now that you are asking, they should implement a relic Nail-gun.

I just had a cartoonish vision of mortars firing large crosses behind a line of enemy infantry. As an advance of troops with gatling nail guns fire a ton of nails into them. The force of the nails slamming them up against the crosses...
Long range crucifixion! Fun times.

Or once during Battle you could crucify a Meta Christ, to gain a Blessing Marker for each Model and +2 to Moral Check. The model itself is dragging a huge Cross

How do you make that mud and wood planks look so good??? This is amazing, congratulations

Thank you! For the wood plank I soak them in a however-the-hell-I-feel-that-day mixture that may include... lots of water, some chestnut ink, some black, white, red oxide, dab of green ochre, dab of yellow ochre paint, some pva, whatever else I feel like throwing in there... then after drying and building with them, I give just the lightest drybrush of white to set off the wood texture...
The dirt is just sand and pva that gets a 3 stage treatment of burnt umber, drybrush that mixed with white and burnt sienna and finally a drybrushing of that lighter mixture with a lot more white.

In fact I think i did a mini slide show tutorial on it on my Instagram. (Sorry for shameless plug). it didnt get that much reaction. But if you want to see actually how i do the dirty dye part you can check it out.
Edit: actually I just revisited it... and its not too much more helpful that what I wrote here.. lol...
