Never ending unpacking FINISHED

          I got a bookshelf off of craig’s. Organized my mess. Then work was giving away shelving. I took two, to double my storage space. Next, wall space was give up for a game freezer.

Popping smoke today and getting shit done.

         Now I am finished unpacking and organizing shit. It was a total mess of scales and minis everywhere. Plus I dragged the shit out for NEAT and HistoriCon and got a new job.
         Everything is going into its own box by scale or game system. All the armies are labeled in the jewelry tray thingies. I did find all my river sections!!!!

Need to build a work table for terrain and larger custom builds

         I am extra lucky. As I have scored the garage as a work space AND a large chunk of the family room for a proper gaming table. I don’t have a table in the house or a plan for one yet. I will build one within the quarter. Thinking about a 7 x 5, prefect for RF&F and any other system will fit with room to spare.

         Plus I bought an Undead Warmaster army (as seen at HistoriCon). Can’t go wrong at 200 points painted for 249 shipped.

and some terrain (bought at HistoriCon).

Warmaster Terrain

         Right back onto the desert theme.  Starting off proper with a fish tank pyramid.

          The scale is ok for Epic. It is about 5 times too small for 10mm. Above it sits on a GW foam. It 5 28mm holes longhand 2 1/2 rows high. The thing could not be much bigger.
         In true scale, it would be unplayable. At that size it would be the only thing on a table half. A 10mm dude on a camel should be pretty close to two-isn blocks tall.
          It is not a great pyramid, It doesn’t have the 8 sides and the top is more representative of the bent pyramid. So my excuse is its a earlier bent pyramid.

          Still I gave it the metal cap stone.

        The oasis I got long long ago. It is one of the rubbery dudes. I mounted it to 2.5mm thick plastic card. I had to! The thing was overly flexible and I worried about how long a finished piece would last. If I was to pour resin water, would the resin pop out?

         As always scale matters. Cheap china-men ebay palms. I did chop the truck and then buried them 1cm into the rubber dude. They are kind of close to proper height, but if they were true scale you would be knocking them over all game long. 

         Shogun magnetic bases. Why? Mostly because I want movement trays! They are based good enough to play and not feel like a cunt. 
         I am or my wife is rebasing my undead army. She was board and breaking my balls. I needed something she can’t mess up. Something to train her on. Sniffing glue helps with the realization that she is now doing my shit for me.

         Movement trays sprayed with Army Painter. And hosed the sides of the magnetic bases. (thanks Eric) I got the lips as you can see.

         Finally I have started the Araby army. None of which will be GW. That dude in Italy selling recasts and the rest of the eBay rapists can suck it. I am old glory and pendraken.
