Winter in the Westfold
October 2025·pp. 70–73
THE SHORT VERSION
Lewis builds a winter battlefield outside the Hornburg for the follow-up to issue 510’s War of the Rohirrim game. Four braced plywood sections receive loosely shaped foil rocks, PVA, grout and sand, then layered snow flock applied through repeated fine sprays of diluted glue.
The accompanying instructions explain improvised Hill Tribesmen tents made from foam, skewers and glue-soaked wipes; frozen pools built with tinted UV resin; and snowy seafoam trees. A step-by-step painting guide uses cool grey rock highlights and shaded blue pools to establish depth beneath the snow and ice.
