That's a cracking match Paul! This is going to be another triumph! Hope the thumb heals soon too.

Very cool looking project so far.

We've all been there with little scalpel accidents! Ouch

I find with a sharp blade you don't always know you've cut yourself straight away. Hope you heel well enough that your dice throwing isn't impeded!

Lovely work on the scenery.

Next is a tower. I built it some time ago to match the Snapdragon items. Just needed to touch up the paintwork a bit.

That is brilliant.

Great stuff!!

Only just caught up with the thread. Excellent stuff, can't wait to see it in just three days

I still have my Ainsty bus and the Snapdragon barricades, all unpainted of course.

I like the tower idea to match the other stuff, consider that concept nicked.

See you Friday

Thanks for the comments.

An almost finished WIP of a compound entrance, built from a mix of odds'n'ends:

Painting will have to wait until Thursday night when I'm home. It wouldn't be BLAM if I wasn't painting something at the last minute!

Looking good, can't wait to see more.

Your stuff is excellent. At the GLAM two years ago, we talk about doing things. I think when I see your stuff it is not important how much thing you do, it is important to do one project. Hope we get a chance next Blam or Glam to make a game on your fantastic tables. Will you give we a hint what you are doing at the salute???

@NurgleHH.
I wish I was disciplined enough to follow a single project to its conclusion Dirk. Like many people I tend to flit from one thing to another. My Post Apoc collection is typical; I built the Mad Max tanker chase game and did a bit more scenery and miniatures, but have lots more I'd like to do including a group of vehicles I have and mostly converted already.

This has been a side project to put something on at BLAM at the last moment. At least it has got me to finish a few items that had sat half-painted for years. My Darkest Africa has been sidelined whilst I do this....

At Salute I will be helping out running games for Crooked Dice. The London Zombie table by AndyM being one of 5 quickplay games we hope to run. Its unlikely I will be providing scenery for them this time around.

More pics will have to wait until BLAM or after, as I've only just finished all the bits I need for the game tonight.

But you finish projects. I still hope to finish any project I started. Have fun at the blam. I wait for your next project-news

Glad to see I’m not the only one testing the efficiency of a new blade on himself…

Nice work Overlord, the bits and pieces you’ve done greatly enhance the Snapdragon stuff and the elements you’ve build give the whole lot a "coherent" looks

Thanks, I want to eventually build an entire compound to match. That was the idea when I started 5+ years ago....

In the meantime here are a few photos (phone quality I'm afraid) from the past weekend at BLAM:
