Where are the updates?

Saturday 27 June 2009

So ok, I'm guessing no one was really asking that, but I'll tell you anyway.

I am working on several projects at the moment, as usual. I tend not to update this site as much as I could, because I always feel I have to compliment updates with photos and that's hassle. Hah, I'm lazy I know.

However things will be changing. I've transferred my domain from one host to another, when that happens I expect the site will pootle offline for a while. I'm writing a new script for the site which will let me manage more things and even offer a few shiny features to my visitors. Oooh, see now that got you interested didn't it?

But for my projects I've gone off on something of a tangent again. My praetorian vehicles have stalled and are strewn around the room. I started a four legged sentinel which is looking awesome but unfinished. Now though I've started something I've wanted to do since I got into this hobby 18years ago or so.

I'm building modular terrain! I know, odd for someone who doesn't actually play the game. But I've always loved terrain building and wanted a modelling project to get my teeth into. And the other slightly odd thing? It's Mordheim terrain. Different to all my other stuff, but that's exactly the point. I've liked Mordheim as a concept since it came out and wanted to create a medieval/fantasy town to play it in.

I've got most of the materials now and I'm having a go at my first board piece. We'll see how it goes. If nothing else I've got some fun projects to do like a hirst arts church (pre-cast, those moulds are damned expensive to get over here) which I'll be customising. I'm making my own moulds for bricks in the same way I did the gobsmasha wheels. I've put in an order to antenociti's workshop for a load of fantasy accessories.

I'm looking forward to this. I'm taking two weeks off over the summer too, so I'm hoping this'll give me something to get stuck into.

Not quite sure where I'm going to store it mind, but that's a problem for down the road. :)
