Hammer Time!

After seeing this meme (on Reddit, where else, last photo in the row) I asked a friend to lasercut it for me (in 2021....). Dug it out my WIP box last week and finished it. Miserable bit of cover but adds flair to my 28mm post apoc table.

And I really need to source me some backgrounds.....

50 cent Challenge - Sovjet Monument

50 cent Challenge (well, with inflation more like 1 Euro these days) is something I have been doing for years. Find something at the Goodwill priced up to 1 Euro, tart it up and paint it for the gaming table. So this full metal sports trophy got a new base and a punched card star, with a paintjob on top of it. Boris is your uncle, as they say, and this goes right into my 28mm Zona Alfa collection.

Simple Gastank (28mm)

Kept it really simple. Put a 1/72 plastic kit fuel truck bowser upright, glued it to a 20x30 base and used the steeringwheel on the front as a valve of sorts. Paintjob did the rest and this goes right into my Zona Alfa/Post Apoc collection.

28mm Low Power Transformer Shed

One of my first 3D prints so with obvious flaws, doors were unprintable so scratchbuilt new ones from card as well as a proper Transformer. Going right into my Zona Alfa collection.

Industrial scatter testpieces

I need to make a certain item for a bit of scenery I'm working on so decided to do some tests first (and test my AK markers coverage) in the process. Scratchbuilt from 1/24 truck bits and a old Revell Poseidon submarine on 20x20mm bases. Not meant to represent any particular device, just give the feel for my 28mm (and 15mm) games like Zona Alfa, Scrapjacks, This is not a Test etc.

Sarissa Precision N044 Water Tower Brick Tower 28mm finished

Just finished this for my Zona Alfa table. Nice little build with a scratchbuild light in front. I fixed the water tank to the top to make sure the ladder survives for more than one game and just drilled a large hole in the base to fit in one of those battery operated tea lights when the need calls for it. Or loot.

Edit: It is actually the R044....

Zona Alfa Nissen Huts

Picked these up in May 2018, 4 plastic blocks of Nissen huts from Dust (I think?). Combined them to make 2 large ones, grabbed them out of my box last week and now finished.

Brutalist Monument for Zona Alfa

I picked up and printed a file released on the 25th of July and finished it lastnight...not a record for me but compared to my other output at least Warp 5 I think.

This is sold (well, pay as you please) as a Elven Totem (file can be found here >> https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/elven-totem-tabletop-terrain ) but to me this screamed Brutalist Art.....so, enjoy.

Printed at 100%, 0.08 layer height, 0.4 nozzle on my Bambu A1, just regular SUNLU PLA filament.

Easter Island heads

Dug these out of the box they had been in for the past 9 years (picked these up for Ghost Archipellago originally). Just cheap aquarium ones from Uncle Alie, and only 1 of them got smashed to bits in the post, now finished with paint and flock. Meant for Pulp Alley, Majestic 13, Nightwatch and whatever else tickels my fancy. Into the cabinet they go for now, done and dusted.

Sarissa Precision N605 Colonial House (15mm) finished.

This goes right into my Nam and Wadiya collection. No modifications other than adding 2 beads for planters. Fun and cheap little kit.

Hooded Guardian Statue 3D print for Verrotwood

Printed these off in 2 different sizes to fit in with my Verrotwood scenery, but these work for a variety of other things as well. Rubbed them with some wallfiller for extra detail, and a scrub, a wash, drybrush and tufts and they areBready for the table.

I found the file on the Bambu page and it was free. printed on Bambu A1 at 0.08 Fine Detail settings.

Gewoon aan het genieten van alle Pluimvoetbijen hier.

Ze zijn wel heel eenkennig qua bloemen merk ik, het is de Tuingoudsbloem en verder niets, ik zie ze maar heel zelden op andere bloemen hier in de voortuin, en slapen en rusten doen ze alleen maar in deze.

Voor volgend jaar maar wat extra zaadjes verzamelen en een extra strook voor ze maken.

Boete overweg R340A maar geen foto, alleen een notitie

Zojuist een boete ontvangen van 329 euro voor het "een spoorwegovergang opgaan, terwijl niet direct kan worden doorgegaan en de overweg niet (geheel) vrij kan worden gemaakt. Feitcode R340A

Dit bij de (beruchte) dubbele overweg in Boxtel. Daar staan al camera's (en dat is maar goed ook) en de situatie is duidelijk. Rood licht, ook al staan de spoorbomen bij de eerste overweg open (komende vanaf de Tongerseweg Boxtel) dan blijf je gewoon staan. Niet moeilijk.

Ik kon de boete niet rijmen, ja, ik ben daar elke dag rond dat tijdstip nadat ik mijn kinderen op school heb afgezet en weer richting werk/huis ga. Webcam slaat beelden geen 6 weken op dus ook niets aan.

Foto staat niet bij het CJIB, dus opgevraagd bij Prorail, kenteken/datum/tijd combo onbekend. CJIB gebeld, door een verballisant ter plekke is mijn kenteken genoteerd omdat ik de 1e overweg overstak terwijl er nog een voertuig stond voor de andere overweg stond en de slagbomen nog bezig waren met openen.

Ehm, ja, nogal logisch, want ik sla altijd rechts af Tongeren op, dit is de afslag tussen de 2 spoorweg overgangen. Als het rood licht aan mijn kant stopt dan rijd ik gewoon aan en draai rechtsaf, dan is het toch compleet irrelevant of er nog een auto voor de 2e overweg staat?

Ik heb dit als zodanig aangegeven in mijn bezwaar, maar dit voelt als een he said/she said geval dus ik weet het niet. 329 euro is voor mij veel geld, dus ik vraag eigenlijk, hoe schatten jullie mijn kansen in dat dit kwijtgescholden wordt?

(geen idee overigens hoe ik een foto kan toevoegen van de situatie)

Warbases Sci-Favela Sewer Grate finished

Warbases Sci-Favela Sewer Grate. Left the top unglued to add counters etc, and went for a much brighter paintjob that usual. Works for a lot of things, and added in a nice STALKER reference as its main purpose is my Zona Alfa table.

Spider eggs, spider eggs.....so many spider eggs

For the spiders I made for Verrotwood/Silver Bayonet a while back, I thought it would be nice to have some eggsacks lying around, as one does. But I didn't want to spend a lot or use the 3D printer for it, so went with the wooden beads route. A bag of these is cheap at the arts & crafts section, or you can find bags of the stuff at the local Goodwill for even more variety. Add some Milliput to seal the hole, glue in place, cover the areas in between with some cheap wall filler, et voila, eggs. Or alien mushrooms. Or spawnpoints. Or anomalies. Or.....anything you can think of.

Grey primer, black wash, and just dotted all of them with a AK light grey marker pen and then again with a AK white marker pen, and satin varnish on top. No flock as these are so generic that they will fit in with my 28mm as well as my 15mm collection (see pics for ideas).

Hope you like!

Passiebloem ziet wat bleek?

Doe ik iets fout of heb ik gemist dat deze een fles Toner oid nodig heeft? Vorig jaar nog prachtig vol kleur, in Mei netjes teruggesnoeid en bemest, maar de eerste bloem die nu bloeit is kleurloos? Zal de rest dat dan ook zijn of is het net zoals met pannenkoeken, de eerste mislukt ook?

Ziet er alsnog prachtig uit, daar niet van, maar ben wel heel verbaasd nu, had dit totaal niet verwacht.
