Wraithbone Alternatives
In an effort to find a more cost-effective base coat paint for use with Contrast paints, we spent some time this weekend finding several similar shades of spray paint to the official Citadel Wraithbone. At this point, I have an official can, and 3 alternatives ranging from 50% to 75% cheaper. Assuming they work and…
Giant Centipedes

After a short break, we had another session of the Carrion Crown campaign, with the group continuing thru the Shudderwood. As partially expected, the group was highly resistant to the concept of running when faced with overwhelming odds, so stalled out a bit with a horde of werewolves in the forest. As a result, more…
B1 Battle Droid update
Continuing the work and printing on the life-size B1 Battle Droid, which is now able to stand on its own. Central body pieces are still printing, then I can tackle the arms and hands, but the main structure is intact. Total height to the top of the head is about 6 foot 4 inches, taller…

3d Printer Troubleshooting – Bed Adhesion
A topic long ignored is my ongoing 3d printing, mainly around the filament printer. In my case, my current model is a Prusa i3MK3s, honestly a very solid work horse of a machine. It has been very reliable system, except for the occasional user errors with re-adjusting calibration and filament temperatures. However, over time, the…

Taking on a new big project and attempting to print and build a life-size B1 Battle Droid. This is from a design by Droid Division, and at least from the pictures, it should be rather impressive. Supposedly the final product stands 78 inches tall, so might be a bit imposing as well. Certainly, the full-size…
The Promethean

It appears that the final piece of Chapter 2 of the Carrion Crown will be wrapping up this weekend, as the group faces off against the Promethean. This chapter has been a bit heavier on the roleplay and investigation, so it is finally time for a full drag-out fight. Of course, it happens to be…
