Martian Tripod-April & May Update

Due to life,I missed my April blog and as usual I've only few finished things to show you but here are a selection of work in progress from last month and this.

City back drop.

As I'm limited to gaming space at the moment I've got round to covering up the blank white wall on one side of my table.This will work with buildings that are sitting elsewhere or have yet to be completed with a road way to be made of foam. I used the cork to try to fit in more with the buildings rather than just paint a background.Still lots to do but at least a 3 year project/idea has started.

A few bits of machinery for the Imperial Japanese and a Martian Tripod!!!??? or is it Vulcan???

They are sat on that Mesa which is yet to be finished ;) 

Some Martian lurkers which will be getting a further grey coating.

The Empire of the Sun tests a new toy

Once again very little to show you,lots on the table but all in the finishing process.Above the "Fire Turtle 16 " testing its gun against a bit of armour. Sorry for my Japanese readers for my poor Japanese.

Venus Mesa or not much for Feb

Not much to show this month. Snowed under with real world work :(

A few bits of scatter for Mars and Venus. Working on a Mesa for my 'birdmen' village if I ever get the houses right?

Happy New Year from the Martian stone yard

Happy New Year All :)

Alas I couldn't twist any arms for a game from the usual suspects due to family commitments etc but I used the rare spare time to build one of my presents from Santa.

Hirst Arts Tomb selection for an RPG Space 1889 idea I've been muling over for a while.

They can double for ruins of a city or temple on Mars.

Seasons Greetings to All

So this year has seen few finished projects due to work and family, but one soldiers on.

What for next year? I'll continue to finish the projects from past years and oh no new projects! What are you mad? !!! Yes crimbo time has tempted me to buy new things! A few for the lead pile and a lot for terrain to go to future Space 1889 games. If we can get in a game before the end of the hols we will but if not hope to get some games in next year.

Thank you for your interest.

May your God,Gods or Richard Dawkins go with you at this time of year and may 2016 see you modeling and gaming as much as you would like to.


DLI in VSF :)

A little bit more street scatter or Google photos gone wacky!

Sorry not much this month either and it nearly didn't get posted thanks to Google's new photo "service" which I guess happened some time this month?

Trade goods/ market produce and a makeshift chapel for the Lords work.

You may just work out a fountain in the early stages.

Slow progress on Mars

As you can see these days have been slow at the Workshop. A chest virus and family comments have hit me hard this October but at least things haven't completely ground to a halt.

More wagons!

A greenhouse in the making from Warbases.co.uk,

Land Train well under way.

Two gentlemen from the East to show scale.

Finally a walker from Ironclad nearing the final painting.
