Here's a quick look at how the sci-fi hab-units are shaping up.
In the first video/pdf I'll be showing how to make the buildings themselves (in various sizes), and in the second one I'll be adding more details/greebles.
Hopefully it will be worth the wait :)

Pictured first is the main structure (which is close to being finalised), and in the second picture you can see my initial prototype (which shows how I'm planning on adding doors, windows, and various greebles

Here's a quick look (in an attempted 'fly-by' shot) of some of my dwarven terrain (that I've put together for a few Moria-esque games)
Tutorials on how to make it all can be found over on my channel: youtube.com/@CrookedStaf...

I backed this Kickstarter a while back (from Archmage Press )... and it arrived today!
It's a DMless / solo / co-op adventure for D&D (with some similarities to the fighting fantasy books) - and it also comes with some double-sided battlemaps.
With any luck I'll give it a try over Xmas :)

I think the pdf for my next encounter video is done.
Now, this one does rely on the players keeping a map of the dungeon - but seeing as how that's becoming a bit of a lost art, I've included one they can find (as a player handout) along the way (plus there's space for a few GM notes too).

#heroquest was always my brother's game growing up (I had Advanced HQ later on)... but seeing as how it's on sale for £19.99 on Amazon, I thought I'd pick it up
(this is the version with the cardboard standees and the double sided map - so there's only 5 actual mini's to paint ;) )

Testing out a few kitbash ideas for a black numenorean and a couple of orcs at his command.
These are 99% northstar bits (the only thing that isn't is the cloak)... and they're just blu-tacked together at the moment.
Quite happy with them so far :)

I've been working on some dwarf themed terrain again - and this time, it's the dwarven warrior relief/effigies that you can see decorating these walls
As always, there is a video showing how to put them together here: youtu.be/8j0djuRWKC8
