Happy Thanksgiving

The video below explains a little about the original design of my table and hopefully clarifies some. I show the old Chapel Sanctuary from GW I recently purchased among other rambling. Go ahead, watch and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!




Organizing the game room

Posted

I changed the template for my blog to to allow the width of the youtube videos (They were overlapping the links on the side). Most of my free time this week was spent organizing my new found game room in the basement. I added a book shelf and started putting all hobby books on it. I love having it all the rules,white dwarfs, and hobby books in one place to access. In the midst of organizing, I found some old posters. I am going to laminate them and put up in the room with the others I already have up. Looking down the road, I want to get a display case for the room and keep my models in it. I about done cleaning the mold lines of the 9 warriors. I will then move to preparing some of the metal models I bought of eBay that I stripped of paint and glue. The final update is Micro Art Studio finished the Trygon I had them paint up in my colorscheme. They do a great job as always!

Lesson learned: Resin

Posted in ,

So after putting a thick layer of plaster on the sides I have a strong buffer to the foam. I then proceeded to buy the resin to pour for the lakes/ocean/water areas. After talking to a company explaining what I wanted to use it for they told be to use a polyester resin. (the company was Tap Plastics) Well I did so and then saw the polyester resin EAT THE FOAM. So after doing my best to repair the damage I did my due diligence in research. I found that Polyester resin does eat the foam and that I should use an epoxy resin instead. I found that expoxy resin is used on surfboards with a foam core to seal it. Then they use a polyester resin on top. So after a long search I have to grab some epoxy casting resin. Its good to have finished a long cleanup of damage control on my board and get back to finishing before it gets to cold for a good resin pour.

Plaster and sanding

Posted in




I have added and sanded 2 layers of the plaster and its starting to shape up the sides nicely. Its taken longer than thought simply because I am no mason with the putty/plaster. Every time I sand the plaster there are weak spots than crack and crumble chunks. It is making the table have a very nice finished look. I also bought at a local hardware store some spraypaint (it is the H2O latex krylon has discontinued due to lack of sales) It is a fantastic product as it does not eat foam!!! So I bought a couple cans of white for future ice terrain. I also had a professional company paint my dream color scheme. Its not complex but for some reason I love it and thats what matters. The White and blue color scheme is what I love. Micro Art Studio did a fantastic job as you can see below.
