Lovely work mate!
I need to rebase my miniatures too. A pity that there about 200 of them

Do them in small batches, that way you get to complete stuff often, and you can sense the progress

And, thanks - it's really amazing how big a difference the bases make; had I but understood this earlier, it would have saved me a lot of work. But, heck, I didn't have access to tufts and 'leaves' back then, anyway

Redid the bases on these 4 'encounters'.

Before:

After (note, that the Mummies were previously based on copper coins, which were replaced by steel washers for the magnetic properties):

Things have been a bit quiet, as I had to repair the dining table (it los 1/4 of its legs) before I could lay out my cutting mat and other accessories for the next step(s).

Can you guess what is going on?

Making some progress:

Details can be found on my blog, but it is a quite straightforward build, even for someone like me

Getting there... eventually....

And all done building.

I'm quite pleased with it - it must be the first ever completed gaming-related scratch-build by me, and though it has a few minor flaws, it should serve me well in games to come!

I'll see if I can get some paint slabbed on one of the next days, but I'm working nights this and tomorrow night, so I am going to sleep most of Thursday and Friday away, and the weekend is all but booked out by my in-Laws coming Saturday for delayed birthday celebration (yup, it's that time of the year, again), and the girls attending an event at their riding Club Sunday, so we'll see if I get anything done before Monday...

Glued the metal base in place.

Painting still pendng... (not really in the mood)

Got some paint slabbed on.

First, base-coated/primed with a dark brown:

And a coat of golden brown (to make it match my aquarium deco pieces):

A bit more WIP...

With the deadline drawing close, I am once more spending some time on this.

The finished stairs:

Thanks - I actually just need to finish basing the mad grave robber, and then get everything out for a photo shoot, and I shall have accomplished what I set out to do for this challenge.

The project will then have been finished just a tiny bit beyond the original plans from way back (because of the re-basing of the minis), and I think I can then claim it fulfilled.

It does NOT mean, however, that my mind is not already seeing possibilities for expansions, but they will have to wait patiently in line as I am just now focussing on bringing some other old, almost forgotten projects back to life - most notably my ancient Citadel Undead army I purchased second hand about 20 years ago, and now am painting up for God of Battles.

Argonor · « **Reply #89 on:** June 23, 2015, 04:02:08 PM »

Almost there... need to do the final touches on the grave robber, but have started setting up the table(s) for the finishing photo-session.

Maybe tomorrow will see it done.
