What's on the Table - painting and terrain

Hi All,

Time seems to be speeding by and I'm not really getting important things done. One of those things, obviously, has been blogging.

So here's a quick post to show what I'm up to.


The Gretchin I owe Dave B are out. I need to somehow get those tiny little spaces where the black primer has not seemed to stick.


Got my terrain books out, I finally remembered what box I'd shoved them into during the last tidy up. I also want to use techniques from the Terrain Tutor, Terragenesis and Terrain Thralls.


So with that in mind I've been saving various plastic tubs for building and bought a mini hole punch at the craft store, the intent is to punch rivets out of plasticard.

I got a couple more Abdul's for the magazine article so I'll have a fairly good representation, but I could use more.

I could also still use Sci-Fi terrain, Vehicle and figure pictures.

Later.

    1. Thanks Simon, I received a bunch of them in a lot that I bought. I thought they were very evocative and something I could easily afford to pass on.

  4. Just keep on doing stuff, and eventually stuff will be finished ;-)

    I don't have an Abdul or any 40K RT pics, unfortunately. I do have a recent band of girls (not GW though) which could be used as proxies for a Necromunda gang...https://maraudersandcitadels.blogspot.ca/2017/01/the-vordania-ii-insurrectio.html

    Just send me a Facebook PM if you want them.

    1. Thanks Iannick. There's always time to come up with your own Abdul. I liked your proxies, but the Abdul figures may already be pushing the "Oldhammer" envelope. In the future I may start slipping more obviously not Oldhammer stuff in the zine.
