And I bought another collection again

 

Its very fitting

        This time it is all for me. And I did not buy the whole thing. My old room mate from Boston assists people in selling their minis, their shame. He came into a massive pile of Epic. He asked if I would help him price it out and share those I sell to. Of course. Then I cherry picked all the IG Armor. 95 tanks total, 53 tanks of it FW, and I am keeping 48. There were some I never meant to get or wanted. So those few will get sold. The other are for a mate.

        The Keepers.

Bought another collection part V

 

Chaos Collection total 646.75

            Sale of the Chaos collection continues. In June I sat at 540. After the Eldar got taken down, chaos started to sell again. 8 detachments and a primarch for 106.75. 

            Then a mate was interested in items. I pulled them and sent them for free. My money was back in my pocket. Better yet the minis stay in the group.

Anno Domini 1666 Spanish and the Cardinal's men.

        El Mariachi, Antonio Banderas. Comte de Rochefort and Don Quixote.

    

        A few doll house, D&D, pieces for my little dolls, Minis, in their doll houses, terrain. It all D&D stuff I got at Little Wars. They were the same price as stls for the same stuff. I wanted the tables and benches out of the set. The rest I could careless about. The scenarios in 1666 have items in the rooms. I want to do 3D soooooo

                                         

            "Colbert" from the Man in the Iron Mask. Always after Monsieur Fouquet for the 13 million issued to protect Philippe as a baby and child. Colbert forces the secret and the events thru his greed and designs on Fouquet position.

                The other one here is no body, not a character. A random duelist

Terrain Boards, Cons and the Future part XIX

 

            The tile that matches up to the Church section has all the roads down. A "Matte Vintage Grey" rattle can was used as primer. The blue tape is covering the building numbers. Just like your house every building has a number. It is important for a fast set up and each building is slotted for that spot exactly.

            On the old board, the roads just ended in rubble. I used a poly glue sand mix back then. This time it was beach sand from the islands and white glue. At some point the whole board will get 2 coats of poly. Poly makes them almost un-chippable.

            Last week's road casting washed

            Both full low land tiles are now done and primed.

            The 1st tile with the city wall is done and primed.

        I had only 100ml of resin left. You get more than you think!

            One of the original tiles scraped clean of roads. This one never lined up to any of the other 3. 

The Road Heavy Rotation part IV

 

        The clowns are off to Japan for training. Except some how that got a week off before going. Lucky me gets to cover the whole time they are gone. In a Marriott Court Yard. It is 2k a night & 100% bonus points.

        In the room at night I am pouring roads. 

        Smooth On 320 is light years ahead of the stuff I used way back in the day. No matter have rough you are mixing or how heavy a pour, No Bubbles! This is the resin I will use. It is the only one I will use.

        I only took one of the 2 FW road mold I have with me. I have never traveled with them before. I didn't want to risk damage or loss to both.

        There is about 10% left in the bottles. The mold I took does not have the cross roads on it. I will need a few cross roads sections. 90% of the bottles got me 12 straight sections, 12 of the square sections and a bunch of partial damaged sections. I will be wicked close to having enough sections to finish the other 3 boards.

        At this site we have an office. I am not here for anything special. This site has onsite support. Just like a firefighter with no fires, I sit and paint in the office. I have been here before when a dude left. In the office my old painting lamp was waiting for me. It sucks, but it is here.

Treasure Island House

        Some more 3D terrain for Anno Domini 1666. It is a 2D game, but the demo I got was 3D. 3D is much cooler.  

        The Flashforge burns out everything and anything that will fit its print bed. It is faster, has no issues, and quality is better than the Ender3. With the smaller jobs, I can use the rolls of filament that are under a 100g. The Flashforge also will restart if it runs out. The Ender3 never gets it right.

        This is the second printing. I dropped the first. It broken into too many pieces. The supports on the Ender3 suck. The Flashforge's are so much easier if there are any.

        The Ender3 clogged again. This was its longest run without a clog ever. I am pretty quick at the unclog and change now. Sadly it was a 3rd into a print.

        I have started printing the other Treasure Island building, the warehouse. The first floor when great. The 2nd floor has failed 3 times. Two time it stopped laying filament like it was clogged. The third time was awesome.

            It has never gotten past this point. I will have to re-slice it to see WTF is happening? Others print fine.

Epic Traitor guard part VII

 

        I had always wanted to add on units so the army could play both good and bad guys. Dudes are dudes! More armor is the easiest way. 

        I had all these from long long ago. Way back in 2013-15, ChinaForge/Fight Club was available. The guys were ordering almost every month. I was one of them grabbing everything I could.

        I will seal these 6 tonight

        Next weeks on the job painting
