Vietnam test table

 I picked up a 4x4 mat from Greenstuff World that had a meandering stream bed in the middle that I intend to use for Pillage, but I wanted to see how it would work for Vietnam. In 15mm. And it works just fine.

I do need to make a few stands of palmtrees. And find my box of resin roads that seems to have gone AWOL (so you need to imagine where they would be, ok? Otherwise I'm pretty far along I'd say. 







As a swampy stream area with a ford for Pillage or other fantasy games. The 4x4 format makes it useful for Verrotwood as well. 

Verrotwood table layout test

 Same as with my Zona Alfa table, going over what I need to add, and this case.....a bit more diversity in trees so it isn't a episode of Pines-R-Us would be nice, and some farm buildings, burned down or not, and walls. But otherwise, not bad at all as it is. 











Zona Alfa table layout test

 

After +2 years of on and off painting I felt it was time to put my stuff out on the table and see where I am at for #zonaalfa

Yeah, pretty good. Needs fences and smaller, thinner and dead trees though. And I need to expand from the Industrial area into the Residential area now.

Kits and stuff from #sarissaprecision , #warbases , #ttcombat , #forgeworld (try and spot those!), various H0 kits repurposed and 3D printed and Diecast items.

Forest Death King

 Sounds a lot heftier than what it is.....a tree with a face. Printed this off at 120% after slicing off the wargaming base in the STL file. Glued it to a irregular MDF base and painted and flocked it.

This was a test to see if I like it as I have another 20+ dead trees to paint. I used AK Putty to add more surface detail but that wastes a brush and half a tube of putty so that isn't the way. The wallfiller I use is too coarse, so maybe experiment with Milliput and Alcohol to make a slush to cover it. 

Johann standing in as a size reference. Going right into my Verrotwood collection. 

The STL can be found here: Forest Death King
It's a shame that it is again a designer who shows off AI designs and even uses it as his promotion pics.

Yet another 50 cent challenge - "34Д"

 I picked up a diecast truck at the Goodwill for 50 cents, made a photo that promptly vanished into thin air <sigh> and took it apart. In the back of the orange truck (Matchbox Fire Rescue Truck >> Foam Fire Truck ) was this part, that I trimmed down, based on a 20x20 base and repainted for Scrapjacks and Zona Alfa. Hope you like!

Radiator

 Picked up a single resin radiator off of Vinted, and added pipework and a base with styrene. No idea who makes it, wish I could get some more to work over. Oh well, maybe someday.

Experimenting on a tree

 Sounds worse than what it is. I realised I never really painted a tree (I think?) so just experimenting for a bit.
