Hi folks! New to the boards. RL friend to the beloved Mr. Peabody! Thought I'd throw up a couple of pics for a project I'm working on for next weeks Trumpeter Salute in Vancouver. I'll be doing a game demo for Crooked Dice's 7TV. Man, this is an awesome active board with a truckload of talent so try not to laugh!:)
First, a plastic wrap covered saucer...

It's removable!

Then a little paint and basing...

Almost there... Added a couple of companion pieces using the awesome bark technique...

Flocking and more paint.

Hope these images worked!
Thanks all!

Can't see any images

Yep, seems you didn't get your picture link directly between the picture symbols.
(http://X) x marking the spot as it were?

Doh!...Squared away. Sorry!
-
Beautiful! Where did you get the UFO (or how did you make it?)?
-
It's the Lindberg models Area 51 UFO. Easiest kit on Earth. Like...6 parts.
-
This looks great - a fine set of terrain pieces for a fantastic game.

Thanks! Yep, 7TV is great fun!

Bloody brilliant, Gary!

Love the 'scrape'....very clever!
:-* :-*
And welcome aboard.
You chose a fine way to introduce yourself.
:D
-
I thank you sir!
-
Very nice, when I saw the foam at first I wondered what exactly it was meant to be but it came together really well.
-
Buddy! Great to see you here at last!
Man that crash site is looking sexy as hell and the gaming mat came out really well, too. Looking forward to Friday's game and a whole weekend of fun with the club!
-
Cool! 8) You got it finished! Looks lovely with all the flock on it! p.s. Thanks for not throwing it at the jungle board! ;)
-
Your jungle masterpiece is safe from my jealous rage Andy! :D
-
Looks great Gary. I'm looking forward to playing at Trumpeter Salute. I've wanted to try out 7TV for awhile now.
-
Looking good
-
Awesome Kamandi! Talk to you this weekend!
-
Brilliant work!
Thanks for sharing.
Is the impact area expanding foam insulation?
If so, the foam didn't stick to the plastic wrap?
-
Well I'll see you there then! Let me know you're Kamandi!
-
Mr.42, what a game! You absolutely nailed it. Superb fun for everyone around a really fine looking table...
That 7TV continues to impress. ;) Glad you turned me on to it.
-
Thanks Peabs! Couldn't have done it without you! Great fun. Lost my voice! Kamandi, thanks for stopping by!
Amalric: Yep...Expanding foam. Some of the plastic did stick. I had to keep poking holes in it to let the air get to the foam. It would worm out of the holes then I'd just cut it off.
The basin with the remaining plastic is under the saucer. Water proof...Dry ice:) Next time... Actually next time the saucer will be in a volcano...

Saucer Down! was a stand-out hit and a prime example of what a participation gaming event should be; imaginative, well executed and fun!
Gary ran his first big convention game like a pro. He got the players right into the action and kept the game rolling along. Best of all, the game ran to a satisfying conclusion in each session that Gary hosted 'Saucer Down'.
Here are a few more shots of the game. Terrible shots from my iPod. :'(

Thanks Peabody! I think the pics are totally appropriate to the subject matter! I had a ton of fun and a ton of help... SOMEBODY had to pour the tea!
-
Thanks! Yep, 7TV is great fun!
Keep hearing that... should probably add it to my ruleset collection...
-
A good time indeed. My squad of mysterious government operatives took the alien into custody early in the game. They had nearly manhandled him off the board when they were felled by a barrage of stun grenades. Repeated!
It was good fun Gary, and a nice intro to 7TV. I plan to play more 7TV in the future.

That's great Kamandi! Hope we can play together! Maybe a Chinatown gaming session!
