 Winner Take All  

By DROC6670 - Dec. 31, 1969

I used the following Hirst molds to complete this project:
- Ruined Tower #65
- Fieldstone Wall #70
- Wooden Plank #220

I took 12 large wall pieces from the Ruined Tower mold I had leftover from casting and used some one-to-one rubber compound to cast a mold I could use to quickly make the pit walls (I followed Hirst's direction on how to create a mold). I used approximately 70 pieces to create this project. I used a 3" piece of Woodland Scenics styrofoam and cut a circle into it. I cast the large wall pieces and used a piece of construction paper formed into a circle as a guide to keep my pieces circular. After I created the circular wall, I slid the styrofoam over it and glued those pieces together. I created the weapons racks from the wooden plank mold and placed some extra Warhammer weapons into it. I created a deck from the wooden plank mold that holds the winner's plunder and the skulls that surround the pit are from the Fieldstone Wall mold.

Well built pit put not particularly innovative. I like the timber bench more which is a nice design.

Obviously the Overlord doesn't tolerate dirty fight arenas, and insists that it is cleaned after every event! Nice idea well executed.

I agree with with most everyone else has stated. Dirty up that pit. The walls are way too clean to have been a pit used for any length of time. This pit fighting arena does give me some ideas... SO thank you!

Great idea and very nicely constructed! Only suggestion I might give is dirty it up a bit...it looks like a brand new fight pit and not one that has seen many battles. Great job!

Nice build, clean paintjob.

It wouldve been nice if it had a bit more then just the ring though, like perhaps more of a stadium, with seats for spectators and all.
Keep it up!

It's nicely constructed and a cool concept. It looks like it'd be perfect for the Ogre fights that were in White Dwarf a few months back.
