I'm still around, but I took about a year off from the hobby. I have some projects on the way, including a 4x4 board for Shadow Wars: Armageddon. in the meantime check out the Fallout inspired mini fridge I put together. It cost me less than $100 USD.<br />

The rust effect was done using the Salt and Hairspray technique that is frequently used to weather miniatures. Overall I'm pretty happy with this. It was a good learning experience and a nice break from tiny terrain.<br />

I'm not sure if you guys have heard of RelicBlade yet, but it is a new
tabletop miniature game with RPG elements. It requires few minis and a
2x2 playing surface. It is in Kickstarter at the moment ( https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1000723637/relicblade-adventure-battle-game ). The creater is a comic book artist who sculpted, did the art, and wrote the rules on his own. Check out his website here: http://relicblade.com/ and the Facebook group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/182254545474657/ . Any way on to the good stuff!<br />
<br />
<br />
I started with an initial sketch inspired by RelicBlade's author own Castle. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIDyrKXyv__f5ZBheYEnGVbaEkdEJVLUeostwnWJD7rhQE4fsc2b9PXud8TTAOkvm593r4uZo-EgSdg-AEbHlUX-pJc27X5U0CuaS_WNfgl8V3hUmiSDFEVSEaYsgqt27wCrnM2osMjVw/s1600/sketch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIDyrKXyv__f5ZBheYEnGVbaEkdEJVLUeostwnWJD7rhQE4fsc2b9PXud8TTAOkvm593r4uZo-EgSdg-AEbHlUX-pJc27X5U0CuaS_WNfgl8V3hUmiSDFEVSEaYsgqt27wCrnM2osMjVw/s320/sketch.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I carved the terrain from 2 inch thick pink foam and glued it to mdf.<br />
<br />

<br />
Afterward I applied a thick coat of acrylic caulk and brushed it out.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I then glued sand to the rock.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVWLofSw8blbDU79hfNsjVTk1m0Xy27CdAAZEKXxj-oYAyYXE8QtC_v-irJPdOBqPXxyfQaILbYLGBXo1BaGzPQ00ZNrJbuX6vdo9i4_bjwpNzGLpcq9CSmgKEYKSOf9dZetn3k8G6ilE/s1600/sand.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVWLofSw8blbDU79hfNsjVTk1m0Xy27CdAAZEKXxj-oYAyYXE8QtC_v-irJPdOBqPXxyfQaILbYLGBXo1BaGzPQ00ZNrJbuX6vdo9i4_bjwpNzGLpcq9CSmgKEYKSOf9dZetn3k8G6ilE/s320/sand.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
Primed the entire thing black. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Drybrushed in several shades of grey. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Painted the lava with white, orange, yellow, and reds. I also did a light drybrush of black.<br />
<br />

I'm now working on the man made features of the board. First up is this wip of one of my rope bridges. It's only string and various craft sticks. I'll have more soon.<br />

As you can see I have been very unproductive! The entire IG team is built and I'm working on the Inquisitor retinue as well. I should have a more significant update in the near future.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, I'm working on a rules update for Kill Team: Heralds of Ruin over on the Facebook page. Hop on in if you want to help out or just hurl insults our way. https://www.facebook.com/groups/481345801919687/<br />

And now for something totally different.<br />
<br />
So... I may have gotten the itch to bust out an old pack of Imperial Guard Cadians (and a poorly painted Chimera) that I purchased ages ago. This may have led to an Ebay splurge on random bits. I may have also found a copy of Inquisitor at my local used book store.<br />

I never bought into Warhammer 40K because I found the entry point entirely too high and the rules entirely too complicated for my liking. However, I've always loved the fluff. Espiacially the fluff surrounding the Imperial Guard (Astra Militarum). As a former Army Infantryman I was really able to identify with the average ground pounder of the 41st millennia. I devoured almost everything Dan Abnett wrote in the universe (I find most of the other authors lacking). Anyway, I recently stumbled over the Kill Team: Heralds of Ruin rules variant via <a class="yt-uix-sessionlink g-hovercard spf-link " data-sessionlink="itct=CDIQ4TkiEwj3rK-hmIHKAhWTBE4KHTfwB-ko-B0" data-ytid="UCbO4Vs1vlAA9hz7Ad7IMgug" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbO4Vs1vlAA9hz7Ad7IMgug">Guerrilla Miniature Games</a> and that reignited my desire to play 40k. More importantly It has a low cost of entry! So here is my partially assembled force of IG for Kill Team (I'll work out the fluff soon).<br />

On to Inquisitor!<br />
<br />
So, I mentioned the various parts and pieces I picked up on Ebay.... my wife is very forgiving. After spotting the rules and picking them up on a whim I went full in with the minis. So far I have 3 Inquisitors, 2 Guard Veterans, a Bounty Hunter, and 2 Rogue Traders.<br />

I'm working on a few more figure kit bash/ conversions at the moment, including one more Inquisitor (who needs 4 Inquisitors?). Hopefully I can get these primed today and start on the painting. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions about the kits I used to create these.<br />

I took a break from my Post Apoc games and slung some paint on a Hasslefree sculpt yesterday. I think he came out well. I'll probably use him as a barbarian for Frostgrave but I based him in a generic way so he can be used for nearly any game system.<br />

I particularly like the depth I got on his cape. I ultimately highlighted it with an orange to give it that tone.<br />

Next up is a Red Box Games mini called Old Holvand. You can see him at the following link. http://www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=old-holvand~hfh080&category=fantasy-%26%0D%0Asteampunk~fantasy-humans<br />

I painted this guy up as part of my post apoc game. He is a reaper
sculpt that I picked up on a whim. I had high hopes for him but he
turned out pretty average. That is my fault not the mini's lol. I also finished the base on my little robot from Hasslefree.<br />

I based them with Citadels Agrellan Earth. It's a neat little product and I like the simple effect it gives.</div>

I wanted to put up my Preserver test model for This is Not a Test. I kept the paint scheme grounded in reality as I may use these guys in modern games in the future. So far only one is done (minus the base!) and I'm very impressed with the quality. I served as an Infantryman in the U.S. Army for nearly ten years and I can tell you these minis are as accurate as you are going to find at this scale.<br />
<br />
Here is my test mini.<br />

I have the other 12 on my desk now. I'm probably going to batch paint them as they are similar enough not to warrant individual attention. Hopefully I can maintain the same level of quality as the test mini. I have enough minis that I think I can add some science fiction flare to some of the more exotic guns (maybe a blue energy weapon glow?) without making them unsuitable for modern games.<br />

I'm liking the progress thus far. I started with a dark brown base coat on his skin and I think the effect is coming along nicely. I'll post an update once he is finished.</div>

I painted up this Reaper Bones Mushroom Man using Game Decor paints ( http://gamedecor.com ).<br>
I think he turned out well. The earthy/ dirty look came out great thanks to the terrain paints I used on his trunk.<br>

No painted minis or terrain today. However, I am searching for my next mini (or two). I've got my eye on a couple from Hasslefree miniatures sculpted by Tre Manor http://www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=jholkar-of-bolverk~hfh078&category=fantasy-%26%0D%0Asteampunk~fantasy-humans or http://www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=ulf-of-gar~hfh081&category=fantasy-%26%0D%0Asteampunk~fantasy-humans . The problem is I can't seem to find them in stock anywhere in the States. If I don't end up ordering them from The UK, I'll probably pick up a Red Box Games mini http://red-box-games.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=21&zenid=c19943e80e1b2d9e8ad9aa643d5350d7 . So many goodies to choose from! </div>

I'll admit the free hand on the shield is a little rough but overall I'm happy with him.<br />
<br />
I'm hoping to do more single miniatures in the future. This guy only took me about 3 hours from prep to finish. He was very quick and enjoyable to paint. </div>
