Quick update

Got some materials in for a banner I am going to make as well as some 2 part silicon rubber molding material to test out. I am thinking of making resin / plastic kits for the chainsword if it becomes popular.

Anyway, my next day off is Sunday, but I won't be working on anything as I will be driving down to Tallahassee to do some job hunting, visit friends and head over to the nearest beach. So, won't be another update until sometime next week.

Construction continues and some terrain

So, did some more sanding on the bulk of the chainsword, long way to go on that with sanding the teeth. Cut out the side pieces and started sanding on those. This is my first time working with MDF and I gotta tell you. It does not have the pleasant wood smell when cutting sanding that most woods do. Maybe because it is basically recycled fiber mashed together?



Any way, pics of the start of the side pieces (more sanding to do) and Some Tyranid terrain I am working on, a digestion pool.




The bulk of it all, just has primer and a base coat on it right now. I have some of that magic water stuff for railroad displays. Going to add some green ink to it to have nice digestive juices in the pit.




Some Rippers ready to empty their biomass into the digestion pool



Couple extra pieces to put in, like Larry here. I don't think he is going to make it. Already down to a stub of an arm and a mostly melted leg.

Construction on final product begins!

So, got the main bulk of the chainsword cut out and side pieces put on. I have some more sanding to do on the teeth and need to trim the side pieces down so everything is flush. So far so good though. I just wish I didn't have one of those normal jobs in a cubicle cell keeping me from working on this today.

Small update

Haven't updated in a while, been getting some OT at work so that is taking up a lot of my time. The foam prototype for the chainsword is done except for the exhaust vent on the side of the engine. Tomorrow I will start on the wood pieces unless I get tied up with family matters. My brother is visiting for the Masters Golf Tournament and may try and spend some time with him.

In non chainsword related news, working on a prop tome for the chaos cultists. Got some leather to bind it with, but thinking instead of sculpting the face of a blue horror or on it something. Also have some Tyranid terrain in the works.

Will have some pics up later tonight.
