Vampires and Floors

Not a usual mix I must admit, but tonight I worked on these two. Mainly faffing about with the armour, but progress is progress…

I also made twenty individual paving slabs to make a floor. Don’t ask me why as I really can’t say. They were quite therapeutic though…

Now that I have the 25mm base unit I can knock one out in about 30 seconds. Sadly the rough chipped ones are the ones that cannot be seen. I will print a set out to see what they actually look like.

My original idea was to use the geometry nodes to make randomised tile patterns from the above. I might get round to it one day.

Mrs Bunny in the Fields

Tonight the septic tank backed up again so I wasn’t really I the mood to paint anything. I did however get some of my home made tufts on the Goonmaster rabbit.

I just realised there’s some paint where there shouldn’t be any!

I also had a faff around with blender. Sculpting this time. I thought Mordheim needs lots of fallen timbers… watch this space.

I Have a Door!

Or should I say…another door.

I am starting to make little steps into doing simple things. Each time I cock things up I learn something new…normally what not to do, but it is all a learning process.

So far I have made the two textured rollers, some signs and a simple door.

Sad but true, I am enjoying doing these. Not sure where I will go next, but if anyone has any ideas then please give me a shout.

I did consider a big double door. Something that will allow me to get the hang of the mirror modifier. There is so much to learn!

Something New

This morning as I was bringing the shopping in I slipped on the mud and sat down abruptly. As I was laden down with bags I couldn’t break my fall so bits of me have spent today reminding me that they existed.

Anyway enough of my whining. As I was on light duties I managed to make something else in Blender.

These nearly drove me demented. One is single sided and the other is double. At the minute I am trying to work out how to add a raised image… it is not going well!

If you hear a fell voice on the wind it is only me throwing a tantrum… again!

I Made Something…

And it works!

So on the left is the crazy paving effect and on the right paving slabs.

What is more weird is that I drew both of them in Paint and somehow in the magic of blender it has taken it to something 3D.

I will be honest they aren’t the most polished 3D printed thing ever… but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t super happy about them actually working.

Late Night Painting

Okay not too late, but I decided I wanted to do some painting before bed.

I went a bit mad with the blood effects earlier this evening. I had also redid the rust on the armour as I hadn’t stirred the dirty down rust effect. So although I shook it like mad for ages, the important bits were stuck to the bottom.

I added some flesh wash to the ghouls as they looked a bit naff.

I will hopefully carry on with these tomorrow on my day off.

Zombie Dudes

Tonight I worked on the five zombies. Now to be honest for speed I went for the ‘standard’ green zombie look. I actually wish I had gone more for the multi hued versions I did for my undead army as seen below…

This lot were obviously all buried at the same time and resurrected likewise…

I was hoping to get them finished, but they still need a bit of work. Joe is coming for another One Ring game tomorrow night so it might be Monday before I get them done.

While I remember the Big Fire Festival is Tuesday this week and it will be live streamed. Definitely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it before.

Ghouls

Who better to inhabit the mausoleum I did the other day… ghouls that’s who.

They are a bit clean at the minute but I am sure I can sort that out.

Yes I decided that I had better get my finger out and paint some Mordheim things. I now have 36 swamp goblins printed so I had better get a wiggle on.

I also worked on this little chap today…

Mausoleum

Okay so I haven’t actually done any painting, but I have got the mausoleum finished…

I had a bit of an exciting lunchtime as I tried to set my school on fire when the toaster failed to pop up… at least I know the smoke alarms work! Full evacuation occurred, plus I didn’t get any lunch as it was carbonised!

More Goblins

So I printed the next unit of twelve goblins… have I finished my Mordheim project… errr No!

Should I be finishing my Mordheim project… Yes!

Should I be finishing my Mordheim project… most definitely Yes!

Am I?

But they are so cute!

To be fair, I have had one of those days at work and frankly cannot be bothered to paint anything… perhaps I should zap myself again… it worked last time!

I also have an architectural decision to make regarding a building…

The columns make it look more impressive but add height and are more likely to get damaged in transit. The dome on its own works, but if I took it off something could stand on the nice flat bit….
