Dantay VI Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Could do, would be interesting to see what you would make for the walls, shield, sword, skulls? As for mass produced art I am not sure. You can buy the Pictures as wall papers etc from GW's Black Library, but again print it yourself I suspect. If where you work, they have a printer capable of doing A3 or bigger, you could possibly print off stuff there in your lunchbreak or something Unless you get really good discounts you could maybe save some pennies and get some GW stuff when you come over here, as I heard its a lot cheaper than buying in Oz/NZ http://www.wobblymodelsyndrome.com/comic-337.html This is why most of my Space Wolves don't wear helmets!

Spazmonkey Posted October 4, 2014 Author Share Posted October 4, 2014 I have been working on my terrain this week. These are the completed ones. Around 70% done. Another 4-5 to complete and my terrain is all done. Then just the table edge to spray and attach to complete. Any thoughts of what color to paint the edging? Classic black? Then just several thousand points of space wolves to put together and paint.... http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_8824.jpghttp://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_8829.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Nice, what will you Count the green stuff as? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spazmonkey Posted October 4, 2014 Author Share Posted October 4, 2014 It is just industrial waste leaking into the city ruins... so can either be just normal board. or dangerous and difficult terrain. I was planning to do a random roll at the start on a game to decide how to treat it. as its on both sides and on the diagonal them its fair to both teams as well.

Spazmonkey Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Working on another piece of custom space wolf terrain...... Almost got enough Terrain for just under 1 1/3 table coverage. If only painting marines was as much fun as making terrain. http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_8853.jpghttp://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_8852.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 O man that's a cool piece. Is that green stuff or did you happen to find half a giant wolf head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spazmonkey Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 they are the halves of a matchbox toy. http://www.amazon.com/Matchbox-Wolf-Mountain-Adventure-Playset/dp/B00383LPCS They are pretty cheap online and not a lot of work involved, just some creativity required.

Z00Z Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 thats an awesome piece. Now you got me thinking of making an aquila stronghold with the same dimensions but featuring that skull.

Spazmonkey Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 bit of an update... been making a few toys for my space wolf home army "Hel wolves" all in progress, a couple of electric tealight smoke clouds for wrecks. Also two Chem generators i'm working on. thinking about using the big on as a proxy for a Chem void shield generator as well. My assault lord "Old three claws" in there to give a bit of size comparison. Didnt realise quite how big the large Chem generator would come out. both made some plastic plumbing pieces from local hardware store. little one cost about $8 and the big one about $15 also working on some razor wire using tile spacers and twisted wire using a drill. will post photos of them as well soon. http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/Mobile%20Uploads/image-2.jpg http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/Mobile%20Uploads/image-1.jpg http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/Mobile%20Uploads/image.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlodVargarna Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Love the smoke! Any tips on how to make it? Also I like the smaller chem plant better. It seems to have a better scale. Both are cool though. And the wolf heads are super awesome. I'd paint some sand mixed with PVA glue on it to make to make it look less like plastic and more like stone. I'd love to play on a table that well done. I need to reorganize our basement a little to find the space so I can keep a tabletop too. Very inspiring and great work!

FenrisWolf Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The smoke looks like something I saw someone do in my club. Take an electric tea candle and put cotton over it. Spray paint black and grey. Voila. Lit smoke. I'll be making a few myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spazmonkey Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 The big tower is only part complete, and only base coated, so it will come alive more once painted. The smoke is really easy. It is just some electric tealight candles, and pillow stuffing Glue the stuffing to the candle with hot glue or flexible super glue. Shape it. spray it was a mountian of hairspray. Spray it from the the top down towards the base in only the one direction. I will also add a little spray of black. Add another metric ton of hairspray... let it dry and set. I also Like the smaller one better. But the big one was more to add a massive line of sight blocker which I lack in my terrain. I am confident it will blend on once painted and washed.

Spazmonkey Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 If your in Brisbane Australia you are welcome to play on it. i have been collecting for 5 years and never played. This is my effort to actually get into the game and play. Also my son wants to start a Nids army so will give us somewhere to play as well.

Spazmonkey Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 Thanks man. it has been a fun experience. I have never done anything like this. Never made tables or terrain or anything before so every piece is a learning experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spazmonkey Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 ok so 90% of the table and terrain is done. time to stop making excuses and get my army painted. http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_9140.jpg http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_9145.jpg http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_9160.jpg http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_9159.jpg http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_9155.jpg http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv186/jay_Spazmonkey/IMG_9151.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russ9576 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Well if you plan it around this time of year you will get the Highland games and the piebald championships in Forres. Oh and miss out on your winter too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanPesci Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Awesome work on the table! Would love to do something similar but have no space in my current flat thank for the compliment man. WOLF LAIR ... loving that... if you dont mind I will steal that.... while I was born in NZ my family immigrated from Scotland from a town called Biggar. Im hoping to head to you part of the world... Im a big scotch snob.... want to do a tour of the distileries in scotland. I live in Edinburgh (although originally from Leeds down in England). BUt have a few mates from Biggar. Went to a wedding there a couple years back. Very nice place (although admittedly i did see it rhough a bit of a whisky haze haha). Scotland is well worth a visit though, I came here 10 years ago for Uni in Glasgow and never left :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
