No more sacrilege will be taking place with Upsheet Creek, well not at my hands anyway, as the Creek is now in another time zone in the hands of someone else who has bought the town.

So...there will be no further updates on this thread regarding any new additions. Not from me, at least.

It was great fun to build and paint and has seen a good few games with plenty of laughs thrown in for good measure.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this thread and for all the encouragement along the way.
 :D

Time to make something new, I reckon!
 ;)

I'm pleased it has gone to a new owner who will have have as much fun on it as we did at several BLAMs.

Sorry to see it wound up.  Always liked to see what you’d do next.  A bit sad as much of VC was built alongside this town.

Still, stoked to see what you tackle next fella.

Maybe the new management can finally end the bear problem in the thoroughfare. And perhaps also but a stop to some of the below the belt shenanigans going on there. Fistings and fingerings in broad daylight...


Perhaps a new settlement Downsheet Creek would be more reputable..

This thread is what caused me to order a pile of figures from foundry that i am still waiting to arrive.  I hope to start scratch building structures soon using Dr death's 3d printed framework idea, and this threads photos for inspiration.

Does this mean no more cowpoking fun at Digits?! Oh, no.  :o  At least the thread will live on for further inspiration.  Well done, sir, a grand thread of a grand collection.

Thanks for the positive comments on the place, chaps.

Well, thanks for that. There is still plenty more sources of inspiration on this board, make sure you check out the Town Roll Call and find all the lovely offerings via there. Good luck, and show us what you make.

lol lol lol

So what are you building next?

Still, stoked to see what you tackle next fella.

First I need to finish off my Playmobil woods, as I have loads of that stuff to work with now:




https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=116042.105

After that I intend to go back to my church, that was originally built for Mordheim and rework it as I have new stuff to add to it now. Here is some of it but there is more not in this picture.....



The pics are all 'blurry' now due to the 'Photobucket Ransom Scandal', but you should be able to get the gist of the other stuff here....

There may still be more opportunities for more F+F in future, do not worry.

Bear problem? There's a wolf problem now ;)

 lol lol
Wolf Creek, perhaps???

Whatever you do with it, mate, I hope you enjoy it.

Ah, Guy, so Upsheet Creek shipped downunder did it? You lucky chap. I seriously considered it myself. Having played a couple of enthralling and highly entertaining games on that very ground.

Well, make sure you take special care of Captain Dickie Blood’s Optometrist’s... I made my last stand in there, appropriately enough ;)

So sad to hear of the transfer of the Creek and just as sad to see what has happened to the pictures, how can Photobucket imagine this does them any good as a business!!!!

Anyway I have lots of them saved for inspiration and I hope to see more of the town down under, in it's new ownership, even if I'm going to have to turn the photos the right way up to view them

Well, in the public interest (and screw Photobucket), I have uploaded my shots of Mason's game of Upsheet Creek from a few years ago onto my LAF gallery, and I'm reposting those pics here, unfuzzified, for posterity.
Thought I had more, but this is all I can find.
Enjoy :)

Thank you, sir!
Much appreciated.
 :D

I think that is probably all of them, as that looks like the ones that you sent me so that I could submit them to Wargames Illustrated for the article.

Much better camera pointing abilities than I have, that is for sure.
 :D
