Some of my most popular posts that continue to get views are about building miniature war gaming terrain, and now all I want to do is go and build more war gaming, D&D terrain pieces. Unfortunately I don’t have the room to build any more of the ultra fun 2ft by 2ft tiles. I’ll need to scale it back, and build something like a bridge, or a wall section, or a single town house of some sort. During the winter I bought some texture rollers from green stuff world off of Etsy. I have not yet had a chance to use them. So maybe a much smaller set piece will get my creative passions flowing, and satisfy that itch.
What I really want to do is build a 4ft by 8ft multilayered environment with water effects, a wharf, a fishing village, and a castle on a hill, and a river running through it all. But who has the time, money, and space dedicated to such an endeavour? Not me. Maybe I’ll prime and paint some left over minis I have and that will remind me how much work is involved in war gaming.
I have yet to give resin water effects a go yet. I really, really want to at some point. I’d like a hot foam wire cutter, and a static grass applicator to use on a big project or two, but those are expensive(ish) if they are left to sit for years at a time inbetween uses. I’d like to use rock moulds, and higher quality 3d printer dwellings that I can paint up. So many different possibilities. Argh! I have too many hobbies! Not enough time or resources to follow them all at once. I still haven’t done any sculpting this year, and six months of 2023 have all ready passed us by.
Summer is off to a very hot start. I think that today is Wednesday. I have some work to finish up for a client before end of day. So I best get cracking. Ciao Bella!
