Bad_Calvin's Workshop - update 4-7

[bad_calvin]

I just posted some more updates for you all. Enjoy.
Click Here for more progress shots.

I have more "detail" to add to the project: ligt fixtures, computer panels, doors, etc. I am also doing some rooms lab, throne room, cargo bay, etc, etc. I am trying to go for the Vydar underground, since I read about it in the compendium. I added some color so you all can quit looking at the pink.

Enjoy!
I wouldn't mind hearing a comment or two, even if you don't like something let me know.

Nice!
Looking very gritty sci-fi as opposed to the white, immaculate future architectural look (Logan's Run or THX1138 spring to mind) the white version possessed.

Those eggs are very creative too.

Glad you liked the eggs. lol

I was going to build a more sterile ship interior, but after I read the compendium about Vydar and his underground mazes.. I thought "oh hell yeah"! I am going to make a nice little Vydar figure and a cool throne room to add to this. I also want to make some dug out sections with some mining equipment, etc. My son wants me to add some turrets and such so we may well add those as well.

Thanks for looking.

I really like the ladder/steps going up to the second level. They look both cool and effective.

That is awsome! Ever consider making an acual tutorial? That would be really cool!

There will be a tutorial of how to make this yourself!

What I plan on doing is making the "battlefield" terrain that my son and I would like to play on and then we build it. Right now, we are still working on this. It went from a space ship interior to the Vydar Underground. I have three rooms that I am adding to this and then I will give everyone a tutorial on how to do it themselves.

The tutorial is coming and it will be nice and easy to understand and do yourself!

My son and I have been discussing doing a elven tree village next..... (think a cool looking ewok village in the sky).

Ohhh, I have been thinking about something like that. I should be awesome. I've wanted to make one myself, except that I lack that little thing... talent. Something which you, my friend, have in spades!

Here's a vote for you to do it.

These pieces are just awesome BC. Really really great stuff!!!!!

[Bill Sykes]

Amazing. Just amazing. REALLY great stuff here. I'm thinking about doing a battleboard, except a really miniaturized version. what do you think? The reason why I wouldn't do a bigger one is that I don't have a lot of room, lol.

Glad you like. The above Vydar battle board is still a work in progress (and is actuall a little further along then those pictures (warehouse, medical bay, bridge... etc). I have many many more things to add to it. I plan on making a tutorial for it as well. I would imagine in about a month or so. I am waiting on the tutorial because there are more things I want to add to it and include in the tutorial.

Anyway, since it is still cold in the garage I am going to do some basic tutorials on the site for a while. This should help a few of you that are afraid of jumping in to learn some techniques for making your pieces. Here is a fence tutorial I put together for you guys.



Roguescape.com has the new tutorial up for this.
