Oblivion Legion Armor - Started adding a couple of washes to the surface as well as some hand painted highlights. Now I can go in and start having more defined dirt/grime buildups in recesses.

Hand Painting a Punisher logo at comicon last weekend. Here’s where I ended up at the end of Planet Comicon, not quite done but I’ll finish it back in the shop.

Little WIP on the Punisher chest armor. Didn’t get as much painted at the con yesterday as I thought I would there were a ton of people to talk to.

WIP glazing subtle skin tones on the Trench Crusade Communicant. Definitely trying to create an undead feel with blues and purples in the recesses. but still give it some warmth by adding reds in key places as well

WIP Wednesday- finished fabrication on my HD-Foam Galactus helmet. Even though it’s freezing outside I’m going to try and apply primer and paint today. I hope to have the build video and Free templates out sometime this weekend.

Ran our first Trench Crusade game today! Had a blast on the new table and it will be the first of many for our local gaming group 🙌 I didn’t put out all of the accessories yet. I just wanted to see how everything worked at this point and figure out what else I’d like to make for the board.

New ruined bunker I’m working on to add to the Trench Crusade board. It will eventually be weathered to look like concrete just like the other bunkers from the second YouTube tutorial. And with some additional accessories and barbed wire it should feel right at home on the table.

Trench Crusade 3D Printed Bunker - I’m working on a faux concrete/stone recipe that can be applied directly to 3D prints and various terrain pieces. It requires no off the plate sanding or additional handpainting. tutorial video in the works and will be available on my channel soon!

Trench Crusade Modular Terrain Board - for some detail and functionality I added some moveable Duckboards and Fire Steps. These really help the overall design and can be moved for each scenario.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Putting some time in on the Sentinel build video and templates before meeting up with family later today.

I guess I forgot to show the bottom of the Sentinel head. You could build it as a cosplay helmet. But this one is capped and has protruding HD-Foam dowels so you can pose with it for your superhero photoshoots.

Got some Plasti Dip, Primer, and Liquitex acrylics added to the severed Sentinel head before the weather went south.
