Out of the Closet......

I have a confession to make, are you sitting down?

I'm a Geek!!,

but stunningly handsome, I'm sure you'll agree..

there, I've said, it. Not only that, I'm proud to be a Geek, I love Sci-Fi and Fantasy (especially that with scantily clad ladies in it - just in case the title gave the wrong impression!!), I love Geeky books, Geeky films, Geeky artwork, war-gaming, computer games, correct spelling and grammar, even Geeky jokes; but one element of "Geekdom" that I have always embraced more than the others is Roleplay - whether it be Dungeons and Dragons, WHFR (Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay for the uninitiated), Shadowrun, Earthdawn or any of the multitude of the other wonderful materials out there.

The Building bug.....

That damn Chico over at Oldhammer on a Budget has done it again, he's posted up some great pics of some 15mm ruins (you can see them here, grumble, grumble...) and made me want to join in the crafting fun, even though I hate making model buildings (see my previous post) and he knows damn well that I'm easily led - the swine!!

Anyway, here are a couple of pics of a sci-fi building I've thrown together.

Vacation Over....

Did you enjoy your little sojourn to the country?? Good, now let's get back to that glorious "post-modern/high fantasy dystopian" world that this blog normally inhabits......

"Come along sir........."

A Little Landscape Gardening...

Well, I've been super busy over the last few days, and have been working on a special project that is going to be taking most of my, albeit limited, sculpting time....

So, rather than radio silence, I thought I'd post up some pictures of some scenery I made for my games.

I wish......

New Year; New WIP

Happy New Year everyone!!

2015 started with a bang, I got engaged to TLC and am really in a good place at the moment (despite in being January; going back to work today and being as poor as a church mouse, that's just received an enormous tax bill on the very day his wife ran off with another mouse, taking all the cheese)

This new-found enthusiasm has trickled down to my sculpting and I've done more in the last few days than I have in the last three months....

Whilst my WIP pile is still embarrassingly large (TLC kindly reminds me, daily, that I have the attention span of a gnat..... Ooooo, squirrel!!!), I couldn't resist starting a new minuature Sunday night, here he is....

I think we can guess who ate all the pies!!

Welcome to 2015........

Well, 2014 is gone, and what a year it's been!!!!! Those of you that read this will know I've been struggling with my sculpting over the last few months. Basically, this has been due to stress caused by overwork and trying to move house. Well, now Sprout, TLC and I are in the new place and settled, I've started pushing the putty again, and whilst there's been no sudden increase in talent, I am finding it relaxing and a great way to destress - which, after all was kind of the point to start with.

Anyway, here is something I did a day or so ago.
