Smaller week than normal this Wednesday, but after my haul seven short days ago, I’ll let it slide.
First, to go along with my Martians I painted last week, fleshing out the terrain for a wonderful game coming up, I ran through a load of craters for some good scatter terrain on the Martian surface!
I’m not 100%sure these won’t get some tufts or somesuch into the future, but for now they’re ready to rock, and performed sterling service in a full test and lay of the scenario yesterday! Turns out, getting some textured grit on really takes away from the visual layer lines from where I 3D printed these bad boys! I tossed in a ruler this time, and some are just over, and some are just under 6 inches I couldn’t get them to all stand up on top of one another, but at somewhere around 3/4” tall, they stack right up to about filling a 6x6x6” cube! More of these are probably in my future! I make a large mat to play this game on as well, but I have no idea how I’d score that, so it’s a wash
Next, as a bit of a breather, and straight out of 11-13year old AndrewB’s favorite book series, Lord of the Rings! Some old GW orc models, as well as some I 3D printed from Medbury Miniatures on myminifactory! Tolkien had a huge impact on my childhood with his writing and the later movies, and it’s cool to get a crack at these minis, which are a long-term (can check previous AHPCs).
They’re wild figures, but so like them, and they get me one step closer to fielding a massive host of Orcs!
