Buh-bye Blue

Okay so I have been working on the Mordor board and have the basecoat down. So it is buh-bye to the foamtastic blue and hello to colors. Well black and brown anyways Mordor is not exactly a vacation paradise. Here is a shot of  the board as it stands now. […]


Mt. Evil

Last night I put the first coat of textured paint on the board. It is begining to look like something other than a gigantic blue ice flow. Unfortunately forgot to take any pictures. Tonight,  it was a little crowded at the shop, so instead of putting a second coat of […]


Twilight Awesomeness

Fiery Chasms of Fire

I worked on the Mordor Terrain board some more tonight.  Lots of foam cutting, but I think the result was worth it. For more go to Saturday in Mordor –edit 8/18/11

Beyond the Black Gate

Then with searing suddenness there came a great red flash. Far beyond the eastern mountain it leapt into the sky and splashed the lowering clouds with crimson. In that valley of shadow and cold deathly lit it seemed unbearably violent and fierce. Peaks of stone and ridges like notched knives […]


Terran Escort
