Well I thought I would give scratch-building ACW ships a little rest for a while and decided I would try and build a river fort that I could use in my games of Blood Sweat & Iron. This was something that I had thought of for a while as I don’t have anything I could use in my games, I had been [Read more...]
Well more ACW ships are hopefully going to hit the water soon, as I have just finished another scratch-build of two paddle steamers. So this time I wanted to again try and make a paddle steamer but this time with side wheels and decided on two ships that I didn’t have. The first was going to [Read more...]
Yep billboards, these have been scratch built from plastic sheets, coffee stirrers and balsa wood with a few other little added extras to finish them off. I have seen many post-apocalyptic gaming boards and a lot of them have billboards of one kind or another so I decided I would have some as [Read more...]
( ok technically its a wooden or tinclad ship ) Well I tried something over the last couple of evenings that I haven’t done for a long while and that was scratch building, and it was a lot of fun. I have a few ACW ironclads which I use for Blood Sweat & Iron, but I am a little lacking in [Read more...]
I had a little spare time over the last couple of evenings and thought it was time that I put together some more 15mm sci-fi scenery, the main bulk of this I printed out a while back but had not done anything with it. Now my 3D printer is not the best for delicate detail and it does leave lines [Read more...]
I have managed to do a bit of modelling over the last week, I needed a pick-up and a van for my new rules so I did some really quick apocalypse style adjustments on a couple of old vehicles I had ready for this, nothing special but good enough to use in some games and for some photo’s for the rules [Read more...]
Well over the holiday break I had big plans for loads of games and rules writing, but things as always never worked out as I had planned. I managed to get a few notes down on paper for planned stuff for Stars & Lasers but no real progress with any rules stuff!! And as for games well I only [Read more...]
Well as promised here are some shots of my 15mm sci-fi desert buildings, although nothing much sci-fi about them yet!! Taken with some 15mm WW2 tanks for size comparison, these were done for a Flames of War demo I did a while back, all the buildings were built and painted over one [Read more...]
I found a couple of spare hours over the Christmas break so started going through a couple of boxes of half-finished projects and came across some buildings I had started making a while back, these buildings were for me to use with my 20mm WW2 figures. I found that I needed more buildings to [Read more...]
Well I started with a pile of bits... Necron bits... and wondered what I could make, I wanted something that was Alien looking and mechanical looking ( rather than the Bio ships I had already made ) So after sorting this lot I had some ideas, I saw lots of useful bits and pieces, the easy things [Read more...]
