Ch't Station

Ch't Ch't Station
For the Sunday game.

Copernicus deck plans take III

Continuing to add to the deck plans. 1-6 now done. 7 has medical facilities and some other things that need defined, 8 will need the shuttle designs to be nailed down first.

Decks 3 and 5

Yet another deck done for the Copernicus.

Copernicus deck plans

After a fall that saw little time for getting on top of my gaming projects, I have been able to do some catch up lately. High on the priority list was deck plans for the players' ship in my new firefly inspired Sunday night game.

First up is the second deck, the crew quarters. Unlike most sci fi games this ship is following physics with gravity along the axis of travel and thus is oriented more like a sky scraper than a cruise ship.

Painted in June

Fairly poor showing and an obviously mixed bag where I was unable to focus on anything. This doesn't include a couple of dozen more figures partially done that I haven't worked up the umpph to finish.

Left to right Brigade (?) plastic toy, Warlord P&S sniper, Warlord Count Tilly, Foundry extra, Musketeer IWI.

I swapped Count Tilly's bible for a plastic sword hand from the Warlord cavalry.

The plastic cow is from the old wagon full of toys at Finnegans with horns made from brass rod and green stuff.

OK, these two don't go together but they are emblematic of my just trying to finish something - they were done because they were simple and easy.

Cactus Field

For the summer old west games seem natural so I have been repairing some of the buildings and even found time to add some new terrain. Here is my test piece for some cactus fields.

CD base covered in a sandstone grout, drybrushed, and then tufts and some burrs added. Simple and fast!

Of course the lowly prickly pear lacks the majesty of some other cacti, but a dense field (and I need to make the next couple of bases with much denser cacti) will definetly slow a person down.
