Ruins 3, WIP

Hello! I managed to have some progress with the temple ruins. I got the paint job done, and now I'm trying to compose some vine and roots on the ruins... Here's how it looks at the moment.

Plants are not glued or attached yet... It's hard to get them right. And I'm not sure if I use them at all, because I think the ruins look just fine without them.

So... I try to finnish this soon, with or without the plants. Bye now!

Making more Space inside my Miniature Cupboard

 

Hi there! I have conquered a cupboard  from our livingroom for hobby use. I have stuff in other room and attic too... (normal situation for wargames gobbyist I guess). There's a very limited store room for my games and minis in livingroom cupboard, and I tried to expand the space for my painted minis, that are now mostly laying in boxes and getting damaged.

 At the moment the upper shelves are taken for painted minis, but they are in chaos, and painted minis are stuffed on top of one another with no order. I decided there had to be a makeover of some kind.
And here's what I did...

I made a bunch of simple small shelves out of plywood... and attached them on top of the existing upper shelves.

Like this... A lot of new space for minis now. I got to save all those old painted minis from scrappy boxes.

Orcs and goblins on the left shelf... (well, few High Elves back there too)

And to the right one, I put all my painted 40K, Epic and Descent minis. Some dungeon props there too. Now it is easy to start playing, for I know where everything is. A new situation for me. Bye now!

Imperial Assault, and some quick "Opening the Box" pics

 
Hi there! I got myself an early birth day present :) I've been drooling for the Imperial Assault board game from the day it got released, and now I finally got it... with a salty price of 110€ (AAAaaargh! Thanks for the expencive SW-lisence fee George... or is it Walt nowadays).
In comparison, Descent 2nd edition starter box was 80€, and it shoud be basically the same game with a different theme... But was this worth my savings? Lets see what's in the box...

Ok. Here's four rule booklets, and some advertising stuff...

Seven sheets of floor tiles and markers, and the small sheet looks like some kind of stickers...

 And they're double sided of course. Art looks really high quality. Me like...

Next we have some hero cards and tons of other smaller cards, as can be expected from Fantasy Flight. There's Deployment Cards, Story Mission Cards, Side Mission Cards, Agenda Cards, Reference Cards, Hero Class Cards, Imperial Cards, Item Cards, Supply Cards, Reward Cards, Command Cards, Condition Cards... ... ... "Piii... pii... Uiiii... R2-D2 do not compute". I get back with some details later. Dice look familiar if you've played any Descent games.

And finally some miniatures. Including "bonus" Luke Skywalker and Darth Warder figure packs!
Lets see those miniatures little closer...

 

All the minis are really nicely sculpted, and the plastic seems quality stuff too! So I think I'm happy with my investment so far... Now I'm gonna do some reading, and I'll be back with some details of the game rules and those cards and tokens. Bye now!

Ruins3, WIP

I'm making some ruins again... Here's the pics.

I carved the base out of foam board.

Then I added some floor tiles and columns. Glued with hot glue. I used coctail sticks to give some strenght to the thin pillars.

Here's another angle... More soon, I hope. Bye now!

Some Purchases and Arachnarok WIP

Hi there! Here's where I spend my hobby money lately, and first pic of my Arachnarok project...

First some reading. Gav Thorpe goodness from Black Library. This should inspire me to paint my Successor Chapter few more minis..

like this Space Marine Attack Bike still in a box, that would be most welcome support for my bikers.

More reading. Amazing campaign for Pathfinder. Every FRPG GM should have it!

We've been playing some Pathfinder 2nd edition with my son, and now he wanted some more dungeons to delve into... This seems like a great expansion so far. Still some rules to study.

And finally this huge thing...

Some assembly done here... Howdah crew not ready. In comparison, there's one of Empires elites taking blows. More of this spider soon. Bye now!
