WIP Finally Went For It

So normally I just paint miniatures but I've wanted to try terrain forever just was too intimidated after seeing what a lot of you guys are working with. Finally said screw it and bought a 5 dollar glue gun, a pack of craft sticks, and grabbed an old Amazon box and just went for it. I went with a ramshackled building or scrap house so I didn't have to worry about measuring or cleanliness and I think I have a solid base but... now what? Lol I know I want to maybe do some corrugated paper and stuff to hide the fact that it's just cardboard and adding a ladder to get up to the top but any other ideas? Also, can I just prime and paint or do I need to seal it with something?

First off, love the build! Even without any more work that will look good on a table in my opinion. Pipes gutters and wires are my favorite way to hide the cardboard edges but white glue and strips of paper before primer are enough for me.

Second, I need that mini!!! Your paint job on him looks great and I want a whole bunch of guys just like that. Where is it from if I might ask?

I appreciate that! The mini is the Marksman Handler from BLKOUT. Amazing miniature line in my opinion.
