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.

 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.

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

 I finished the two easy clock faces and glued them in place.  The sun dial is just some sheets of mat board and stencil paper scribes for the grooves, a punched sun, brass letters and some brass wire. 


 The long count calendar is not great but it will do.  It is made of scribed foamex with some 15mm skulls from CP models.  

These are glued in place now.

 Here is my afternoons work.  All four sides are done.  Tim the enchanter for scale.

 It is time for the LAF Build Something Competition again and I am having a go again.  The something this year is a place of worship.  As I am trying to steer clear of temples for my Frostgrave terrain I decided to do a shrine.  As they are often overlooked in the game I decided to build a shrine to chronomancers in the form of a clock tower that will end up doubling as a dice tower.  Here are this mornings efforts.  As I have the rest of the weekend free I am hoping to finish the majority of the structure.

Fantasy Bakery

 In my attempts to figure something else aside from temples to build for my no ruined or frozen Frostgrave terrain I decided to build a bakery.  As all bakeries need bread I made ten Roman style loaves out of milliput then did press molds using instamold.  After a week of making bread with that mold I had enough.  Here are some of the loose bits of bread that I have yet to use.  

Next I did some shelving to store the loaves and a display for out in front.


After that I did some more storage shelves with a variety of ingredients and stuff.  I also painted up some loose items to have cluttered in any excess space. 

Lastly for furniture I needed a grinding stone and a table to work dough on.  The grinding stone is a 1p and 2p coin with some putty. 

All of these need a building with an oven so the basic interior is here.  


Once I finish construction of the roof, painted the basic structure and glued in all of the set dressing I will liberally dust the whole interior with white weathering powder to simulate the excess flour that would be pretty much everywhere.
