Bakery is mostly finished.

 My bakery is almost done.  Had a hell of a time coming up with some convincing flour to spread everywhere.  My weathering powders clumped and would not stick to the surface.  Same for corn flour and real flour.  Ended up using baby powder after a suggestion from Tarnegol over on LAF.  

Building still needs soot on the chimney and oven, weathering and a sign for the front.  I limited the details on the sides so it can butt up against other buildings to create a row of shops.

A museum for my museum terrain

 Been working on a building to stick some displays in.  Back in 2019 I put together some museum displays and bookcases for a Maze of Malacore scenario that we managed to play once.  I decided to build a building to put some in.  I decided to make it to fit Pulp Alley and Frostgrave so pretty generic exterior that I can put signs on.

Gelatin cube

I ended up with extra clear resin from my BSC build so I decided to try something that I have always wanted to by building a gelatin cube.  To start out I posed and painted plastic skeleton, a pelvis and skull.  Once that had set I glued each of those pieces to some fishing line so I could "float" it in the resin.  Next I built a cube of Lego and then formed three sheets of foil around the cube.  After removing the Lego form I stabilized the cube of foil using tape and two part resin in the corners to stop leaks.  Then I hung the bits of bone from some coffee stirrers in the cube.  After mixing the resin up I poured it into the cube and let it set.  After removing the foil I had to retreat the surface with two part epoxy resin to ensure that it remained clear.  Blobs were added to the surface with UV setting resin.   This was glued to a prepared base and more UV setting resin was used to make the edges form naturally to the ground. 

Here are a couple of tutorials if you are interested in trying one of your own.

BSC2023 Post 7

 I am calling it done.  I managed the whole build without breaking a spear then broke two while filling gaps.  

Here are the photos.  








BSC 2023 Post 6

Pretty much finished construction.  The inside was primed black and a couple of small ramps put in then the sides were glued together.  I have not decided if I am going to add embellishments to the roof.  

The dice tray at the bottom has four symbols for time engraved into the floor and the central pyramid will bounce the dice to a random side of the tray.  

Off to the photos.  




Here is a gratuitous picture of my cat embedding her fur into a rug.

BSC Post 5

 Finished the last clock face.  I had to build a second one because the first effort was not great.  Down to the photos.  

Here is the first attempt. 


I think the second is an improvement.

In place on the tower face.

BSC Post 4

 Finished the mechanical clock face.  Now I have to buy another circle cutter as when I started the last face the blade shattered.
