A few closeups
A few closeups
So I might have gotten a little carried away with building catwalks and making sure the tower at least appears to be somewhat structurally sound
#HobbyStreak day 1285:
More on my #FantasyScenery wall - attached corbelling for a wooden walkway and made a better masonry arch over the reverse of the gate (yeh the other side will be hidden mostly by the walkway lol).
Also more on my #MurderTurks for #TrenchCrusade.
#HobbyStreak day 1284:
Oops my tower of self torture needed a companion. So now there's a wall. And there will be another two wall sections. And one or two more towers
Also started on my #MurderTurks for #TrenchCrusade. As if I have time for that
#HobbyStreak day 1283:
Finished my tower of self torture for now by sticking in ladders* and the last two floors, one flagstones.
I originally had planned to work on a #Gorkamorka tank but the other printer ran out of filament.
(* the original plan was a SPIRAL STAIRCASE in an upwelling of true mind breaking ambition )
#HobbyStreak day 1280-1
Ah yes how do we make the battlements stick out from the tower? The next chapter in my 'tower of self torture' has been completed. Decided to continue with the floors and OH JESUS CHRIST I have to perfectly tailor every angle on every single coffee stirrer for that
#BostonWeekend 46/x
Wed 5/21 4-9p, Fabville (#SomervilleMA High School #makerspace) hosts a free 'scrap bashing' night, upcycling trash into terrain building - "Aimed at creating #terrain for games such as #Warhammer40k, #Battletech, Dungeons and Dragons, #StarWarsLegions and more" https://fabville.org/new-events/2025/1/28/open-shop-hours-29sa7-cs7am-p6eaf-nxyyc-6rt5c-3cf4n-4lmpy-h6sjc-cbhym-a5kz9-ln5xa-emc6j-tflx2-bgp78-2rwpb-nke76-hzh7y-t2rr3-htflr-kbb9x
#HobbyStreak day 1279
Some very tame stacking of bricks. All very modest, because I did not find anything to make my work more difficult
Noooo that'll be the next stage, when I make a broken top floor
#HobbyStreak day 1278
In 'Erik is building a self torture tower' episode 3, today we explore realistic arrow slits and their effort.
Spoiler alert: lots
#HobbyStreak day 1277
Why the fk am I doing this? Not even if people knock over Pringle Tower will they notice
I blame @bno for raising the bar unreasonably high.
It's slowly progressing forwards. My husband is doing most of the painting at this point, but the windows are my responsibility.
Mostly finished with my tower. Just need to finalise the placement of the stabilising woodwork and ladders etc.
Then its time to paint both the tower and the house I built recently... Unless I start building something else I stead
#HobbyStreak day 1274
I unleashed my inner @bno and stuck bricks into this tower for #Mordheim. After popping there was no stopping, let me tell you!
I finished putting "glass" in the ruined cathedral window. Was it strictly necessary? No. But I wanted to do it anyway.
Putting an unnecessary amount of attention to detail in a part of the build people will, probably, never see... But I know its there
Next time I decide to build some #terrain I really hope I remind myself to only do individual bricks on a small part... And hopefully only on the outside
#HobbyStreak day 1251
Another piece of #scenery for #SpaceGits and/or #Gorkamorka. This was the last one I had at home; now I need to print more
#HobbyStreak day 1250
Painted the new #scenery for #SpaceGits and/or #Gorkamorka. Quite happy with the rust, still need to work on the graffiti.
#HobbyStreak day 1248
Printed some #scenery for #SpaceGits and/or #Gorkamorka. White PLA filament is the worst. Had to restart a few times because it needed different build plate heating from black. Well these school printers are forked old anyway.
