    Miss Griffin assures me that all Gryph-hounds require many skulls littered around them such that they are clearly trampling their many fallen enemies. For entertainment, and perhaps to feel like I’m contributing something to our family hobby, I am modelling some alternative greebles in Blender for her.

    She’d also like it if the Shattered Dominion large base elements would fit on her 40mm round bases and isn’t interested in the logistical difficulties.

    Turns out buying textured bases is an option but seems a bit expensive given that we’re just learning (some of us, anyway) and we’d need quite a few. There are some CC options on thingiverse which might be worth a whirl – not specifically what I’m looking for but it will be interesting to see how they hold up to FDM printing.

    Is this an excuse to buy a resin printer maybe?

  • Paint Day 8

    No painting today. It’s a little less wintery outside today and the Mini Griffs are keen to play outdoors after school.

    In other news, apparently dry brushing is what my life has been missing.

    Found some snazzy examples of textured bases on the GW website and they look very cool (perhaps well beyond my ability) but I do have to wonder why bases don’t already come textured. I’ll have a proper look at those next time we sit down to paint.
