Suddenly an update?

Long story short; My initial goal was set to high, I got overwhelmed, lost interest and abandoned the project (like I often do), but now I’m back =)

So here’s the progress so far:

My initial goal was to have the dungeon painted with several different colour stones but due to time constraints and pressure from my gaming club I have had to abandon that idea for now and instead go for a more traditional look.

The base is dark grey, followed by a heavy drybrush of bone white, then I have gone in with a light wash in some areas and finally I have stippled the pieces with a mushy green colour to break up the uniformity and tone down the starkness of the white.

Of course there will be a lot of detail added to this down the line and I might even revisit the idea of multi coloured stone work, but for now my goal is to get a smaller test setup complete for play testing by the end of March.

Wish me luck =)

Current test layout

So I may have been a bit optismistic when I said that I have cast 60% of all the pieces I need, it’s probably closer to 50% after my latest test build.

Nevermind the awkward corners and gaps here and there they will be fixed once I have cast more of the small dress pieces.

Yay blog...

So I have decided to start this little blog mostly so that my friends in our gaming club can keep up with my miniature projects in between gaming sessions. Since I do these projects sporadically I expect updates to be sporadic as well. Hey wait, why am I writing this in English? Well even though I don’t expect to get that many visitors to the blog outside of people from my gaming club I might actually link to it from some of the forums I frequent and so out of respect for any potential international visitors I thought it more appropriate to post in English.

So what am I working on right now?

My current project is a modular fantasy dungeon for 28mm figures to be used for some form of skirmish type game. The dungeon is made out of Hirst arts blocks cast in plaster and mounted on a cardboard base.

What is my current progress?

I would say that I have cast about 60% of the pieces I need for the whole dungeon and I have so far gone through almost 10kg of plaster =)

More pics and updates to come when I feel like it =P
