Well I am feeling a bit better so I decided to do a bit of painting…

There is only one vampire in a warband. I couldn’t decide which I liked the best so I did both.

Over the past week or two I have been printing miniatures for Geek club

It seemed like a good idea at the time to let them choose six each.

I also tried a bit of geometry nodes in Blender…

Thé geometry bit has turned a cube into the above snowman. It’s a bit mental and this was the easy bit. To be honest I could probably have made this by building it, but this way I can change side, rotation or position by a quick slide of a button,

Wibble city has hit today. I keep going dizzy if I do too much.

Going to take the day off tomorrow as I can just about walk through the house in a straight line, never mind drive a car!

To be honest I just woke up to do this post. I made it to 17.00 before needing to go to bed. There are lots of lurgies flying about and as ibwork with plague demons then it is small wonder I have caught something.

I managed another plank today in Blender. Now that I am getting the hang of them I think I will try for a recessed Cross piece.

Two short planks… well I felt like that earlier. I couldn’t manage to make my curs in Blender nice answer smooth.

This kind of was spoiling the effect on the wood grain and then it dawned on me… instead of increasing the resolution of the piece I kept on decreasing it!

It works on a numerical value… I found 0.0123 to be a nice resolution number. Funnily enough it was finer than 0.0321…funny that!

So here is this evening’s plank!

I evidently didn’t check the size when I was setting it up. This one is about 12mm long!

Tonight I was knackered and decided to try and get a plank made…I achieved one…sort of.

I just need to get the depth and shape of the larger indentations right. I out a couple of cuts across the face of the plank. This us about 10mm wide and 40mm tall.

Tonight my good lady was on a conference call so I couldn’t get onto Blender to make hinges for my rounded door.

My problem with Blender is that I cannot seem to build things and save them separately and use the bits to build other things. Now to be fair I could use other things like Meshmixer and 3D paint so maybe I should stop moaning!

With my hiatus I did get on and do some painting. The red panda you have seen before. I have worked on the dregs and rabbit this evening.

The dregs are nearly done, so this leaves the vampire in his two forms and the Necromancer. I have painted the armour on the vampires, e

I am now off to make my hinges… wish me luck!

Well as you know, or don’t, I have been having a play around with Blender. First the texture rollers, then the signs… now we have doors…

The scale is out somewhat, but I reckon you can see what it is meant to be. After a good old while of head scratching and swearing I have eventually worked out how to add a curve to the top of a door should I need one.

After typing the above I have added a hoop handle like the above and will need to add some hinges next.

After a lot of swearing yesterday I pulled the signs off the printer and I am super pleased with the results. The one on the meft shows the back of the single sided one. The hidden side looks like the right hand one.

I am now going for a single sided door… and the swearing is back…

I pulled these off the printer too…
