New Scenery!

Image
I like to have a variety of alien terrain for my science fiction gaming, When I look around the internet, I really only see five flavors of such outside of professionally produced products: earth-like vegetation (grassland, forest, jungle, lots of green everywhere,) desert, ice, ash waste, and magma. I wanted my alien worlds to look a little different. And my first stab at that was my sweeping expanses of pink fluffy goodness for my toy soldiers to fight in. But I wanted more, not just pink. And so I decided on the Blue World. What follows is the entirety of my Blue World terrain. The first two pictures are the same layout of my terrain pieces from two different angles. It is enough to pretty much cover the 3' x 3' gaming table I normally use. It will be a little less dense on a 4' x 4' table, and sparse across a 4' x 6' table like is used for a full-size game of Warhamster 40,000. The nice thing about this much terrain within a theme is that I can ...

Scooby-Doo And Mystery Inc

OK, so I finally finished up Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Inc. kids. I'll have to get around to detailing the Happy Meal-provided Mystery Machine at some point.

I saw a black vaporator on a street corner. So, I finished my first one, and a robo-mule which isn't edged yet. Because cats, and it's 2am.

Some Papercraft Projects

Image
OK, so I finished up a few outstanding projects today. First, I finished my revised Amazon War Deinotherium: Next, I based up my refit of Madame Eva's gypsy wagon; I reversed the ends, added horse slats, there's a cratch on the back, and this one has an awning off the side since it's parked. At some point, I will paint up a horse miniature and have it behind the wagon tied to the tree. Then, I completed a little shed with some crates and barrels to provide some cover: Finally, I made a privy, partly because it was on the same sheet as the shed but mostly because my guys need a place to poop:
