Lurkers from the Deep: Episode 5 definitely has an interesting board. Lots of opportunities for creativity and for finding odd solutions for the terrain features. Previously I showed the work on the central dais and megaliths (found the right term) that dominate the game board. One part was missing, the actual altar piece. Crooked Dice... Continue Reading →
Devils Reef continues to take shape. With the mass of islands completed, I get to move on to the big center piece of the whole board. I'm not sure what to call this section. There is an altar, there are pillars, there's this raised platform. But it's not itself an altar. It's not itself a... Continue Reading →
Episode 5 has a lot of flat terrain to paint. It's a 4'x4' table that is supposed to be the exposed parts of a reef where bad guys are doing bad things while the good guys attempt to race in to go good things. I feel that is a sufficient description. I should be an... Continue Reading →
I am nearing the end of the builds for Lurkers From The Deep. The last Episode is at once the simplest build and the most complicated. Simple because it is mostly flat terrain with very few features. Complicated because it is not rectilinear in layout. This episode takes place at a temple out on some... Continue Reading →
Still documenting the build up for Episode 4. I say documenting because I'm actually finished with the terrain. I'm just slow at blogging about it. Previously I showed the larger land pieces for the terrain. That was an interesting experiment that turned out well. New material, new problems, but a good looking bit of scenery...

Every so often I need to get back to miniature painting. The actual figures are what interest me the most for this hobby, second only to playing the games. Terrain has taken up a lot of my hobby time this year. That's by choice, but I do need some of these little figures ready for... Continue Reading →
Hobby stuff has been happening, but blogging has been lagging. Work and life get in the way of things and blogging gets the short end. I can paint and create without blogging, but it would be tough to blog about painting without actually painting. Odd, that. The terrain for the first three Episodes are complete....

We interrupt your regularly scheduled and irregularly appearing blog posts to bring you the following unboxing. While still working on the Lurker from the Deep and still staring at the pile of Dracula and knowing I never really touched the Orsa the Fearless Feature Packs, I have received another 7TV Feature Pack. That's how addictions... Continue Reading →
"One detail that annoyed me was the distribution of the few faint sounds I heard. They ought naturally to have come wholly from the visibly inhabited houses, yet in reality were often strongest inside the most rigidly boarded-up facades. There were creakings, scurryings, and hoarse doubtful noises; and I thought uncomfortably about the hidden tunnels... Continue Reading →
Ok, the board for Episode 3 of Lurkers is quite full already. But, I have these other buildings that need to be built and painted. And I do mean need. They require it. Why do they require it? Mostly because I own them and they are great. To start, let's look at the houses that... Continue Reading →
