Recent stuff.

This is what I saw when I came out of a restaurant recently.
of course I had only minutes to get back to work...  

Hello All,

Another week another update. This last week was quite productive as far as geek and hobby stuff...

National Tabletop Day 2015

Last Saturday I had a chance to run a demo of Start Trek Attack wing at Comics and Games Fairfax
It went pretty well. I showed the game to several folks and managed to get two guys to play a game using the USS Enterprise D and the Klingon Mat'ha Battle Cruiser. It was a vicious battle and in the end the Klingons were victorious!

The moment the tide turned.

While I was there I picked up these nice game mats for an upcoming D&D game.

Miniatures  

I started working on a conversion for the Skaven army

The Brood Horror

A little chop work on the warlord

Close up

The Gun is from the Empire Engineer

I used Apoxie sculpt to make braces for the stolen Elf
stone that powers the Horror as it is corrupted

I also managed to get some work done on my LOTR "Army of the Dead

Finished pictures to come

Speaking of things Tolkien...

It looks like the DC Hobbit league will be in attendance at the NOVA Open this year.

 Other things include assembling figures like a mad man and a really successful NOVA Open build session. NEW Road to NOVA coming soon.

Commission Work

Hello All,

I'm here today with pictures of some Commissions I have done in 2012.I don't really do that many as my own stuff would never get done if I did. When I do I try to give it my all. First off I will start with an Infinity model.

First up-Infinity Rebot

Assembled with an apoxie culpt base

All painted up and ready for play

Up Next- Infinity Cargo Containers

Good Cover

From here we move to Dystopian Wars: Covenant of Antarctica

Here is my test pattern- Daedalus Class Large Flyer

Finally we move to the Warhammer Fantasy Skaven Army I painted in 2010. This time around I it was a Vermin Lord conversion  made from the Plastic Daemon kit and the Current (Still) Vermin Lord model. I think this is one of my better conversions.

The head is from the old Vermin kit the body of a Daemon Prince and hair of Apoxie Sculpt

The Base is made entirely from Apoxie Sculpt

Weapon is a kit bash from the Daemon prince
