Cthulhu
—
by
Extending my ongoing Horror theme, I was doing some model searches recently, and came upon a newly posted Patreon filled with the Cthulhu mythos. Of course, everyone needs a model of the great Cthulhu itself, so I quickly subscribed and collected the models. Now that I have finished the tiles for my Catan board, I…

Hexton Hills

by
As mentioned, one of my next big projects is a Golarian world map, designed and printed in Hexton Hills 3d terrain tiles. First stage is a proof of concept Settlers of Catan board, before I dive into the much larger project of a full regional or world map. One of the excuses I have had…

Digital Game Table

by
Part of my gaming room configuration has been the design, building, and deployment of a digital table and table space for the group. For this reason, we purchased an oversized table (approximately 10 foot), to fit our overly large group. Eventually, this will be covered by an overlay, providing space for the players books, papers,…

Rats

by
During our recent group painting session, I tackled a few of the resin giant rat figures I had printed, in preparation for use during one of our various games. These had been in my box for several weeks, but I figured it was a good time to try the results of some more Contrast Paints…
