From the workbench

So, not everything I make goes to the Etsy site. There's plenty that's just for me, or still in what I like to call the testing grounds. So, here's a couple from the past few months that I'm either tweaking or I need to gauge interest before I start putting them into production...

This little building was originally made for Heroclix. It's 6" x 6" with markers on the top and on the interior's floor for the standard Heroclix 1.5" grid. I wanted to give it a sci-fi storefront vibe, but I'm not sure I'll be keeping that design, since Heroclix is usually more modern. If I decide to go for terrain for, say, Infinity or Warhammer 40k, then I may stick with the sci-fi vibe.

Whenever I cut something that has conveniently 25mm or 1" holes, I add a few square hols in the base so that I can make a variety of shandees later. Things like doors, walls, and the ever-wonderful "Don't Enter Dead Inside" doors. I dig how the sci-fi doors turned out and I may use this for my Heroquest remake when I get back on that.

One thing I've wanted to do for a while is make a good life counter for Magic the Gathering. My wife and I both play and while using a d20 works just fine, I'd rather make something using lasers! This was my first attempt. The pointer points to your current life. Not great, but it works well enough for now. I have plenty of other ideas for life counters, and most look better than this..


That's it for this week. Next week, I'll have even more to show off, including some goodies coming to the shop soon!
