I picked up some bits n bobs from Ainsty Castings A range of boxes ,bales and barrels.for the lads to take cover and duck back behind. The log piles I found at a model railway show - good for picking up terrain pieces i find.
In addition the remainder of the cards have turned up. I have created two other bespoke packs for the game. The Green deck , and the Red Deck.They have the same design art work as the main character/fate deck but are coloured for a different purpose.
The "Greenback" deck will be used to generate random amounts of money - there is a pack of 54 cards with values from $10 to $100,000 . So for scenarios involving say robbing a train, bank or stage then the larger denomination cards will be put in. These can be drawn randomly or rolling a dice to see how many to turn over to see the gangs ill gotten gains.
The Red deck is a replacement for the 6 x 6 shooting matrix. I liked the idea of of shooting effect being done by turn of a card rather then roll of dice.
Cards from ARTSCOW
Anyway just trying to pin down a day to have a game now.
A great looking bog!

DeleteGot to love the outhouse; I've picked up the Ainsty Castings version for the lard of the Chinese Laundry!
ReplyDeleteexcellent look forward to seeing it. I have just ordered soem more scratchbuild stuff for buildings from Antenocitis , so the Laundry will be along for me shortly too
DeleteGreat work on the Thunderbox, Dave. You're right, a folded newspaper would finish it off nicely.
ReplyDeleteyep! i will add it
DeleteSuperb work on the cards.
ReplyDeleteWould you mind sharing what method and paints you used for weathering your outhouse please Dave?
There are a lot of these laser cut buildings on the market and trying to get the right look painting them without hiding all the detail is the trick. What you have done with the outhouse looks just right.
Pat, on the laser cut stuff i use a a humbrol aerosol dark earth as spray primer. then using Vallejo' - this case it was a flat earth colour but i do use other , cork brown , beihe brown etc. I use a a big fat brush an 8 or 10 , and give a decent dry brush with it. all over this gives the base, I then agann give lighter drybrushg with Vallejoe Iraqi Sand - it a brilliant colur for picking out detail , light enough but no too much. If needed do a bit of a wet brushing in plank detail etc with a detail brush of a an appropriate colour - happy to do a walk through post if you like.
DeleteMost helpful Dave,thanks very much.
ReplyDeleteI will be putting the humbrol aerosol on the shopping list along with any of those vallejo that I don't own, as your method for doing these type of buildings are very effective.
A walk through post would be great thanks.
