And its done…! Painting 10mm models was quite a new experience for me and despite a few issues along the way, I am really quite pleased with the way this little scene turned out. I had a few learning experiences along the way – such as white is really tricky and painting long smooth gradients … More Dropzone Commander Diorama Finished!
More pics… getting there slowly but surely! I have a deadline for the end of the week, but fret not, the dropship is pretty much done, just needs some weathering, and the legs of walker number two are at a similar stage, so its not going to be a problem. I intend to add some … More Dropzone Commander diorama nearly done
Right the weekend has passed, far too quickly as usual, and here I am back again! As promised, here are some more photos of the diorama as it is now. I ended up spending a lot of time faffing with the colours of the cliff face as it seemed to seem far too blue against … More Some new Dropzone Commander piccies
This is a really quick mobile phone photo… The colour is shot to pieces on the cliff face, but it gives you quite a nice view of the contrast between the Enyo siege walker and the natural surroundings. The colour of the previous photo was much more accurate… this one has a strange green cast … More A quick Dropzone Commander update
Just a quick update on my Dropzone Commander project. Last weekend I started to slap some paint onto the base. I have blocked in the main shadows/highlights on the cliff face and started to work on the huge ornate and now brass door. There is going to be some serious weathering and verdigris on the … More Dropzone Commander – Painting the base
Wow, doesnt time fly? The first post on this blog was 1 year ago today… I can hardly believe it! My first few posts were very tentative “hopefully I can keep this blogging malarkey up”, and now we are 12 months on and I think I’ve managed it. I don’t entirely know how interested people are in what … More 1st Anniversary of the Bodgers Blog
I’ve been working more on my Dropzone Commander (DzC) scene, and psoting a few bits on Beasts Of War, but here is an update for you guys – a step by step set of photos of the build of the base starting from a section of 100mm waste pipe, and finishing with a team of … More Dropzone Commander mountain stronghold
I recently mentioned a new set of models by Hawk Wargames for their new Dropship Commander game, and frothed a bit about how much I loved the aesthetic of the miniatures… well today I can give you a closer look at some of the Post Human Republic miniatures as I have picked up a small … More Dropzone Commander
I am predominantly a painter of 28mm+ wargames miniatres, but I dabble in some of the larger scales – 1:20 scifi, 1:10 busts and the odd 54mm/75mm figure. I would normally dismiss anything smaller than 28mm out of hand due to my perception that the models will be a) less impressive and b) less detailed … More New miniature company, and the 10mm scale… Dropzone Commander
