 Scottish Keep  

By MLINDERT - Dec. 31, 1969

Scottish Keep

Description

After constructing my last years entry Castle of Despair I took a break from big projects, build some small standard projects (bell tower, ruined tower). At the time I was ready for another design of my own I came up with this keep.

Although I don’t consider this small keep to be a great work of architectural art it comes out as a gem in my living room and I get many compliments for it from friends and family.

I’ve build it almost a year ago but I haven’t presented it to the public yet so I thought the HADD would be a good moment.


Construction

I’ve used Dental Class IV plaster
Total size of this construction is 12x12x12.

Paints used:
Keep: basecoated with Chocolate Brown, overall layer of drybrushing was done by a mix of Burnt Sienna with white, highlighting was done with Bleached Bone. After the paintjob my construction gave me more the idea of a terracotta flower pot than a keep so I’ve stained it heavily with dark ink. After that I was very pleased with the result.
Cobblestone: black for base, drybush with Codex Grey
Clay roof: mixes of red, white and brown housepaints

Kabob skewer and toothpaste tube for the flag
Bretonian Men-At-Arms Warhammer Miniature
Polysterene for the base
A printed out picture for the fresco painting
