Giant Complete. BSC 2026 Complete and some other bits and pieces.

 Finished my entry for BSC 2026.  I came in third of five on the initial vote and as always there were some great builds.  Here it is all tarted up. 


I also finished up the Giant.  I was going to do some oil work on his face but decided against it in the end.  Spaceballs are for scale only.  





 Base and face. 


The tattoos.  


Some Wars of Ozz Mechanical ax-men.  They will be used as construct hordes for a customer Frostgrave Scenario.  








Some casualty counters and key counters. 


Lastly some flaming skulls.

Giant Post 3 and BSC 2026 Post 4

 Zenith primed both.  Just checking for blemishes that show up on the primer before fixing and moving onto painting.

Giant post 2 and BSC2026 post 3

First off is what I have done with the giant.  Finished cleanup and added the pouch and treasure trousers hanging off his belt.  I removed the hook off the pouch and pinned it in place in two spots.  Then used UV resin around the base to give it more support.  A bit of green stuff was added for a strap on the belt and corresponding strap on the pouch.  The treasure trousers (when you hold the piece upside down it makes sense) had the integeral ring and hook removed and replaced with a new steel ring and hook.  The end of the hook is the first pin point for the piece.  I also hid a second pin on the backside of the trousers to secure it in place.  Again UV resin was used for extra support where it touches and is close to the body.  



 I added an Easter Egg on the base with a 3d printed Tortoises attacking his foot. 

Here is a scale shot with a miniature on a 25mm base. 

 BSC2026.

Added details and controls to the supports for the telescope.  Just needs some gap filling and I can prime.

BSC 2026 post 2

 I had some time today to work on my BSC 2026 entery.  Manged to get the majority of the build portion finished.  Now it is down to finishing details and cleaning it up.

Some new woods

 When I posted my woodland shrine someone on the LAF forum posted that it looked like Puzzle Wood.  As I had ever heard of it, I did a bit of browsing.  Browsing got me thinking so I decided to try to make my own rocky woodland. This is what I came up with.  Textured foam rocks with scratch built trees. 

Hope you like. 




Some rocks to litter in between the stands. 

Lastly another bit of shrine. 

Lastly some of the elements together.

Woodland shrine

 As the totems are done, it seemed like a good idea to put them somewhere.  Added a small hill, tree stump and fire pit.  





 Some of the details.

Making some totems

 I have placed an order with Mammoth Miniatures for some of the Banhus Twiggy Horrors.  I plan to use them as totems.  I am thinking about doing a woodland shrine so I figured that I would see what I can to to flesh them out some more.  I elected to try to sculpt some of my own as a supplement to the pack.  As I can't sculpt well, I used skulls out of my bits-box to top them.  

Here is what I came up with.  




 I also used some masks from the Northstar Tribals kit to make some panels and then one of the GSW textured rollers for the carved runes.
