Well this isn’t exactly right. I have got the 40 miniatures sorted out for the Geek club tomorrow.
I also decided to print a couple of dwarf engineers and my planks I made. I think I also did another chameleon, just because I liked it. I went for another piggy too. I will show you how far I got with the one I started last week.
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.
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 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.
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!
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!
