Scene of Horror

Finished this item that has been floating around my work desk for months and I have owned for years...many years...I think it turned out nicely.

Reaper Bones Scenery Done!

Finished off some nice eye candy for the table....

From an old HeroQuest set, theonly non-Bones item.

Sea Monsters Revealed Exhibit Visited

Well, it has been some time since I have posted as I have been rather busy with 40k and Bolt Action plus my Strange Aeons opponent has been rather busy since him and his wife are expecting a baby. So, I figure I would ramble a bit about visiting the Museum of Science and Industry today to see the Sea Monsters Exhibit with my wife.

This is the first start for the exhibit and will be here until September, then it is to tour the country, not sure if it will go overseas but if you have ever seen the King Tut or Bodies (either one) exhibits then this is along the same lines. It has a variety of rooms to various themes, great lighting and some amazing exhibits that is well worth the visit.

I almost died laughing when I saw that there was  Cthulu products in the gift shop on the way out including an inflatable tentacle for your hand and another one to cover your mouth. At the register they even had Cthulu mints in a tin, I may have to buy one in the future as part of a contest prize! Still the greatest find was this!

Here it is on the tip of my finger to give you an idea o the appearance.

Now, this is it next to a 28mm figure, a coffee cup an my hand.

Yea, it was $2.99 and since MOSI is just a few miniatures from my job I can always drive over in the next few months and snag a few more from the gift store. I just wanted one for now to test out as a possible scenery item or other uses in the game (like one of the scenarios in the game with the tentacles appearing). The only issue it it is designed to fit over your finger (which may not be a bad idea to keep one on my drive into work and back every day as it would be giving a new term of giving someone the tentacle!) Some type of filler and this will be IMO a great item of scenery to build! Looking forward to this!

Santa has visited Uncle Mikes!

Santa has hacked into Uncle Mike's website and slipped a special treat in the form of a PDF called "Season's Beatings" a special random holiday effects to you Strange Aeons games. Some could be bad, some could be good...

Enjoy!

Oh some background on the picture....I made that, I painted that Santa up long ago when I got him in a trade, still need to touch up the eye and such but overall he turned out very nice. I painted up some scatter decoration (the boxes) and added some body parts and beads to the tree as decoration. The background carpet and wall are from my wife's scrapbooking materials and the bookcases are from Heroquest I think. 

The Horror of Hobby Lobby!

Well, found this gem for $3.99 at Hobby Lobby! Almost damm perfect, it is made out of cardboard (very heavy stock) and appears to have some great potential! This works well for both 1920's and WW2 themed house....
