Stuf Wot I Dun

Nothing to worry the Frenchies then...

[has.been]

Won't worry Frenchies with today's offering, a team of house gnome servants.
I envisage them to be the 'people' who keep the wizard's house (relatively) tidy.
The are mischievous, surly & occasionally rebellious, but he likes them.
I now need to choose a wizard figure from the pile, then build a house etc. etc,

Having finally gotten round to 'doing up' all of my Graveyard bits (Last year)
I now found another 'Ghost'. Well had to be finished, didn't he?
As one of my friends (JC) would point out, 'You've only had to matt white undercoat him'.

Pete
Are you sure that’s not a head swap that’s gone wrong ? 

[has.been]

Definitely NOT gone wrong (Official answer)
What you must remember is...
Not to try & hit the target, but
to draw a ring around whatever you hit, then call THAT the target.

Some 30 (? might be longer) years ago, plastic skellies became available.
I bought a box (still have most of them un-used). I thought it would be a
fantastic idea to use one a a dolly & make my own D&D figure.
I came across it, yet again, recently. Once again that horrid little voice in
my head said, 'Don't stick it back in the box. Finish it!' . Here it is, proof that
I need a LOT more practice & should stick to various aliens & monsters.
Bur at least it is finished.

As the big tidy up continues, certain things have come to light.
This weeks's discovery was that although I sold off my 15mm WW2
North African desert collection of vehicles & Inf. I kept the buildings
A friend expressed some interest & may make me a (post lock-down) offer.
So before I, both mentally & physically, move them to one side. I thought
I would take some pictures, so here they are.

Great collection fella

Thanks Digit.

next up, two gobbos.
First a fantasy one, I call him 'Moon' then the Sci-fi one, known as, 'Pistols'.

A little bit of back story is required for this one.

During a Western game my friend JC was playing a drunk, & doing a very
convincing job of it. Think Kid Sheleen in Cat Ballou. He drew his gun & shot
at a Cowboy riding down Main Street. Missed the target, did hit the horse though!
One stone dead horse in the middle of town. The Sheriff's judgement was two-fold,
a)A fine. $9.03 (all he had on him).
b)As the Sherriff didn't want to keep him in Jail (& have to feed him) he was to
  bury the horse.

Someone suggested I make a grave with 4 hooves sticking out.
Now, a mere years late, here it is.

Poor Trigger.

In a bid to kill two birds with one stone,
1) I have a stack of CDs (scratched, obsolete etc.)
& 2) boxes (& boxes...) of 'Interesting' bits
 I have started doing the following.
Take two CDs, glue them back to back. This gives me a base with some rigidity.
Stick an irregular bit of card over the hole.
Glue a selection of 'Interesting Bits.
Paint, texture & flock to taste.

Result will (hopefully) be a selection of scenery come mission objectives.
The first, Sci-Fi ruins.

Man as always your work is amazing.
The new terrain is beatiful. And that poor dead horse is hilarious

[has.been]

Thanks Launets. How is your basing coming along?

Today we have a 'dead' robot's head. Bound to have
something that scavengers could use/sell. Worth
checking out (during a Galactic Heroes game maybe?)

[Launets]

I have taken inspiration by your technique but developed one of my own, I gotta say I'm quite satisfied at the moment. I need to stock up on flocking/tufts so that I can add some vegetation because otherwise they look all kinda bland, but it's decent for the time being
