These few pictures are of some repaints by Damon.
These were inexpensive oil paints applied heavily over a miniature, and then wiped down with a makeup sponge or Q-tip.
The ensemble. |
Some close-ups. |
3D-printed Mordheim-esque building. |
I received a few proof-copies of my MEST Tactics :: Quick Start Rules.
Outside Art proof-print version |
Interior layout. |
A very brief set of Archetypes to choose. |
I took the time to make many new components of the MEST Tactics game system which were previously unavailable become available.
I created a variation of dutchmogul's Longhouse found on Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4245111
The original files were able to build the open shelters, but don't allow for a longer building. My modification allows for a longer building. Both are visible in my second picture below.
I will try to upload the STL files by this weekend. The location will be is https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6613687
The view from Blender |
Ready for a small engagement |
I really like Marx Cars of the Future designs.
They are hard to find on the market, and so I decided to design something and get more practice with Blender and my 3D printer.
Here's my humble first attempt:
A stream-lines 50's future car |
And here is the printed version, painted next to a 28mm Dragon Lady from Pulp Action (now Northstar) Figurines.
You can the Blender file and OBJ file here on ThingiVerse at https://www.thingiverse.com/kitrok/designs
These QSR 2.x rules are now available at the quick links on the right. They replace all of the version 1.6 and 1.7 rules. I've provided a booklet form as well. These are all very plain but number at 40 pages and 20 pages respectively.
These are now available in the Archives section under Downloads at https://matter-energy-space-time.blogspot.com/p/downloads-for-noble-pursuits.html
I finally got back to some painting of my backlog of miniature figurines. These are 28mm (~ 1:56) from various manufacturers or vendors. I'll try to identify them where possible.
Reaper Orcs. In MEST Tactics and Sarna Len, these are known as Orogs or Orogsu. |
The front are Etsy. The back is an Ogre ("Oaghir"). I'm not sure of the vintage of either set. I'll update when I can. |
Dawn People, I think. Maybe Northstar? |
Lizard folk ... Yuan Ti? Dang. Not sure. |
I always think Phraint, but I'm sure this is from D&D instead. |
MageKnight soldiers from WizKids! |
A few Lords of the Underworld for Dunjon of Death. I think these are all MageKnight except the orange one ... which I don't know who produced it. |
A set of Commanders for the Great Underworld Empire for Dunjon of Death. |
A set of archers. Nolzur's Marvelous Miniatures for most of them. |
These are from Zombicide: Black Plague by CMON. I didn't paint them, but I did rebase them. Painted by D. Williams. |
Not sure, but really cool for Mech, Beast, and Infantry. I could also use the for Near Future within MEST Tactics. |
Troglodytes. Not sure. Northstar? |
RAFm Cthonian. A small one. SIZ 6 in MEST Tactics. |
Cultist for scale next to a RAFm Shub-niggurath "Black goat of the woods". |
Reaper Deep Ones next to a Cult Leader. They are much larger (SIZ 4 vs SIZ 3) than the RAFm ones. |
I think these are Gremlins from Reaper. They are upon Megabases (as used within MEST Tactics) and are affixed by magnets. |
Also from Reaper. These are Mites. |
So, at one point I decided to create a gift for a friend who like the game known as Diplomacy.
I went at it for several weeks. I had thought I posted that information here on this blog site months ago, but I didn't find any evidence.
After I completed the set, the plan was to get together seven (7) dedicated players from among our circle of gamer relations and do an all-day gaming session. Our industry (tech worker) is pretty harsh and fast moving. That plan never took off because people started moving away.
3D Printed via FDM for 7 players. WWI Tanks and battleships. |
Labels for the supply center control tokens. |
All of the ship bagged up. |
A closer look at the set for the yellow player. Shown are the tanks and the ships. |
I created this large frame of ferrous metal upon. Each section is collapsible and can be stored. |
The map, mounted. I never created a frame. |
A close-up of the map I created using Adobe Illustrator. |
The interior of the large box I crafted using thick polystyrene foamboard. That tiny box holds the tanks and ships. The magnetic sections from the frame are kept at the bottom of this box. |
The box exterior. Nice and portable. |
The map and frame mounted upon the wall of my friend's flat. |
