Still Miniature Related

So yeah, there has been a somewhat lack of updates as of recently. What's more curious is my complete lack of commentary on Wyrd's Malifaux world event. Well...

I'm actually working on that part. See the thing is, there is no groups in my region to play with (well there is one, but they only play one day a week at a certain place at a certain time, which I can't get too), so I require my brother to join me if I want to play any games. As such, I'm working on times to get him over to play a game or two.

The second is that actual game board itself. I don't have anything of that size, so I've had to obtain an appropriate size piece of wood to use as a gaming board and give it a quick base coat (still stinking out the back door). The other problem is a complete lack of scenery. See, we've mostly played our games of Warhammer at GW stores, so now when it comes to my own games, I've got no scenery. As such, I did find an old Sigmar Chapel I got cheap off Ebay a few years back (it's missing a few parts) that I had once planned to use as part of a now failed Armies on Parade board. I got some cheap plastic barrels (not very good, but it's a start) and have made a small burnt out hut using various craft sticks.

I'm currently working on some trees, starting with a wired base and then will use modelling putty or green stuff to cover it and add detail. Still need to order clump foliage for it, along with some foam so I can start sculpting large rocks for cover. Also plan to make fences using craft sticks and skewers, using a clay base to keep it steady. Not very professional, but you do what you must when on a tight budget. Hopefully in the future I will be able to order those building everyone else seems to use in their Malifaux games.

Will try to get something uploaded within the week.
