No I'm not trying to relieve the 80's with bad pop songs, but finishing my sons Ork Killteam.

As you may have seen over the years with my Star Wars project, most of it is cannon, occasionally expanded universe, and occasionally bits I find that fit the aesthetics, like one of the land speeders I did over the summer, and small craft I did a few Chr…

Finally finished the first of my son's Ork's, so let's start with the boss of his commando's, now when he first got them, instead of showing him Blood Axe color schemes, I showed him all the different clans, and got him to choose a clan instead, I wasn't…

Come on no one thought I wouldn't get distracted with all the goodies I got recently, so first distraction has been finished, this is the Shatterpoint Outer Rim Outpost Terrain Pack, no I'm not starting Shatterpoint as well, this was originally part of a…

Yesterday my daughter came up to see me with a rather large pile of goodies for me, nothing too unusual about that, as my children always get me great gifts, but in this instance my daughter was just the delivery person for this particular pile.

One of the really cool things I found in the series Andor, was the use of lots of different types of Imperial troops, not just Stormtroopers, and wanting to replicate with my own armies, I found these great Riot Troopers on Ebay with a seller I've used be…

This was the opening line of the original Battlestar Galactica, and a fitting way to open this post, as I start with the completed original Vyper, from the original series, a long time ago I showed the painting of half of this model as a quick guide, but…

As I teased a lot of ships last time, I thought it only proper to bring another one to the blog in quick order, today is the Raptor from the reimagined series of Battlestar Galactica, this was a totally new ship, some say it was a replacement of the shutt…

Change of pace today a display model rather than a gaming piece, but being a vehicle still counts for the challenge.

Todays post is a little bitter sweet, my Lambda class Imperial shuttle arrived on the 3rd of September.

Got tired of waiting to find my material, and ended up ordering some more, and would you believe, 3 days after the new material arriving , I found my old supply !

No I've not started a power rangers project, but have actually finished my Turbo Tank, that I started at the beginning of the scenery challenge, it certainly helped having my new work area to be able to get it finished.

Today I've finished the Void Spider tx-3 that was seen outside the cantina in Mos Eisley, even if it was only for a couple of seconds in the movie both original and extended version.

This week has been mostly the life size painting kind, so I could get my work room to a point I could use, below is a picture of the corner with my desk, probably the tidiest it has ever been or will be !

As of tomorrow there is still one month left to finish up any scenery you want to do for the challenge this year, for me I've still got several bits ongoing, need to finish the turbo tank, and I should have my desk back in my room this week, which will ma…

No scenery today, as I really needed to finish my other Father's day present before my son thought I didn't like them.

For the next stall I've created a fruit vendor set up, for reference I looked at the fruit seller in the Phantom Menace, and also the frit seller that you see in the Mandalorian series, to get the original feel, but also the diverse fruit from the later o…

Continuing on with Market street, this week I've finished the rug displays to go in the front of the ruined building.

In my recent Market Street post, Roger asked what a Gorg was, as I said I was planning on doing a Gorg Stall, at the time I said they were a type of Amphibian /lizard, but I've done a bit more research and can confirm they are in fact an Amphibian.

Well this week has been a total rollercoaster ride, with lots of ups and downs , so let's clear the downs out of the way, as with the warm weather my daughters car, suddenly started going through a lot of water, so thinking sensibly she asked the best thi…

Around the back of the cantina in Mos Eisley in the detailed exposed diagram, there showed a shop which I made some time ago when I built the cantina, but it also showed some market stalls that you can see in this expanded picture.

Today I have yet another speeder (I know it's becoming a lot !

Today I have another Starspeeder 1000 to show, some of you may remember I painted one before in the Disney World (Florida) color scheme Starspeeder, today's version is painted in the Disney Land (Paris) color scheme, I have visited both parks and both rid…

Over the weekend, I made some good progress on the Void Spider, and got the engine set up all built, and got all eight landing struts bent and fitted, they just need the details added and he feet, I've made one, which I need to make a mould of, to replica…

Or many small steps in my case, and no giant leaps with my knees and spine !

Yet another tangent today, a Orc building for my sons Orc Killteam.

Feel a little all over the shop at the moment, and can't seem to focus on one thing, instead I seem to be starting pieces all over the place like a Void Spider TX-3 air taxi, which is the last vehicle that I need to go outside the cantina, with my speeder…

Today I have another speeder to show, this one is a 3D print I got from super3dprints on Ebay reasonably priced, and the quality was good, the only disappointing part was the picture showed a clear screen but it came grey, as the picture shown is a render…

My wife questioned my last title, as she thought I was completely crazy, when I said the speeder looked like a cupcake, with the crenelation around the bottom looking like a cake case, and the dome being a well risen cake.

Outside the cantina in Mos Eisley there is a brief shot of the 9000 Z001 Landspeeder, now I have been on the lookout for a 3D print, but have only found STL file pictures, not ones for purchase, so decided to use the Season o9f Scenery to make one for mys…

Recently for Father's Day, my children got me some models (they know me so well !

I thought I'd start the Season of Scenery with some quick simple pieces of scenery, first is a set of barricades from the first edition Killteam starter set (orcs vs Death Korp of Kreig) simple scenery, but I forgot I had them until emptying more stuff out

Come on no one really thought I would do two models and stop did they !

The big project I'd like to get done for this years challenge is one of the 3 forms of Imperial Juggernaut that have appeared in Star Wars over the years, below is a picture of the three different types, the top one appeared in Revenge of the Sith on Kash…

Or in my case let's try that again, and get more than a drone done !

I have managed to get both versions of the Swamp Beast cast, and now painted, color wise I've gone for several green tones, one for the grass over the base of it's legs, a different tone for the leaves growing in patches and a different tone for it's basic
