Rocks

I wanted to make some rocks for ages.
Playing What a Cowboy finally pushed me to do it, but rather than the pale khaki desert colours, I plan to do them light greys, so I can use them for more varied games.

The process...

Cutting and shaping the foam scraps

Getting them glued up and based.

Stone circle for RPGs perhaps?

Sealed with ModgePodge then gravel based

Heavy coat all over with 50/50 mix of ModgePodge and black paint.

Half way through Dry Brushing.  Nice to see the difference.

Drybrushing all finished. Just going to add some dead grass tufts.

All done.  Happy with these. Made more than shown here (13 in total).

Ruins

Made a couple of these Ruins for 40k and modern games.  Cut from thin plywood and sprayed up with a little gravel added, they are simple but effective.

Hedges

Made some basic 2d hedges from mdf sheet.  The idea was to have some more 'soft' cover for games like Asymmetric Warfare. 

Quite basic but fun to make and great to throw down some fast extras.

Game - Shifting Stones

This is a deceptivly simple game with endless replay value.  Simple to learn, complex to master.
Great fun family game.  We love it.

Game - Forbidden Jungle

This is excellent.  A Coop game for all players to work together to find and power up the crystals and escape the jungle, all while avoiding or 'managing' the alien creatures.

Game - Kluster

Got this to try out.  Its fun, but can get samey fast.
It's perfect for a fill in quick game though.

GW Contrast Paints

I finally got around to giving the GW Contrast paints a good try.  So far Im impressed.  They're good on their own, but used alongside normal base and layers, they add a huge new dimension.

Here's a pic of the current line up from by the folks over on Tale Of Painters.

Game - Tinderblox

 Had lots of fun playing this with my kids.  A simple dexterity building game. Can get very strategic !

What A Cowboy - Models

Got my first 3 Cowboys done !
Need to think of a good gang name and characetr names.

What A Cowboy - Dice

Loved playing What A Cowboy recently, so decided to buy some cheap dice blanks online and use a permanant marker to make my own dice for it :-)

The faces are Move, Spot, Aim, x2 Reload or Fire, and Ace Wild.
