Blogging and 2010 Objectives

OK, so not much activity on the blog the last 3 months why? Well the blog was a way of helping members of the code complete modelling projects and share them with the world. Well with all good intentions that is how it started but recently that has dried up. Firstly everyone has summer holidays and other commitments but i do intend to get some new stuff on here soon! In the mean time with 4 months to go of the year ive played 21 of the 24 games i intended to have this year! Painted only 37figures of the 100 i intended to paint and made the river and bridge. So actually in reflection the blog is helping focus efforts. Im currently working on a dwarven battle standard bearer who will be pictured up soon.

Back Soon!

Big Toof River... Orky Ramps

Well, it's been a while since I last posted, and whilst I do have more Orky things to show... I can't possibly put them in the way of prying 'Oomie eyes, so for now you will have to satisfy yourselves with the WIP Ork Ramps I have scratched for our Great Big Toof recreation...

These have been agreed to have their own Kareen Style table should the Dangerous nature of the ramp claim a victim...

Naturally all Ork Players have declared that any Ork not using the Ramp will be shamed and made fun of as the runtiest Ork...

(basically these provide an alternative method of crossing the river, albeit a dangerous one. The only thing the Orks care about, is who is going to be first across!!)


Ok so onto business!
I still have a few more icons to place around the ramps themselves and they need to be shabbified just a touch more, but once the icons are in place these will be receiving a quick lick o paint from the Mek Workshop and be gracing the Ork side of the River.

I placed an Effigy of Gork (or possibly Mork) on Each Bridge for good Luck!

Ramp 1


Ramp 2




And Finally, Da Big Ramp!


so tonight is probably not going to see more ramp progress (particularly as the vertical struts to Da Big Ramp, are drying as we speak, however before Thursday they shall doubtlessly be festooned with more Orky Gubbins and had a lick o paint!

More Coming Soon...

Big Tooth Terrain More WIP

Hi All,

A quick update of the work myself and Lukodakka have been doing on the big tooth river terrain.

First up two pictures of the first completed river piece with ford crossing. We had some trouble deciding how to make it a ford but still make it look like the river ran through it i.e. so it didnt look like a dam. In the end we went for putting some water effects down in streams through the ford to show the water flowing from one side of the ford to the other. In the end we are quite please with the results.





Next we have a further wip shot of the main ork bridge. Luko has started to build the down ramps and these will be removable, for storage ease.



Ive also basecoated up the Mek's workshop form my last post and built a rock formation both will be shown in my next post.
