Plodding Along on The Gaming Table, Part I: Updated: 06/05/116

Indeed really great! Love all the small details, you can keep on looking and find new stuff.
Like what´s that evil daemon portal thingie doing in that crypt?!

Thanks, Gatlag! The details are what make The Project interesting for moi. Having them noticed is a real morale boost.    

Everyone figures that entering the Mausoleum will be dangerous; I figure on this one the exit would be tricky...possibly icky.   

AND NOW for those of you who have been waiting with bated breath, an Update featuring The Chapel on the Hill. SO without further ado, for your entertainment & edification a Tour of The Graveyard via Photos of Amazing Mediocrity:

The Vulture once more circles the Graveyard:


...getting closer:








Some interior views:










As with all Terrain Projects, there will be yet more details that must be added. In the interim, your kind comments would be appreciated...kind of.   

SO here's what The Shanty Town & Graveyard look like together:







I hope to be able to take a Group Portrait with all five boards sometime over the weekend to REALLY knock your socks off. Until then you kind comments would warm my wizened old heart...so to speak.   

SO, as threatened, here are a few ASTOUNDINGLY MEDIOCRE photos of the first five board sections all together:














There you go; that gives you, my Fellow Forum Folk, a fairly go impression of the way it all comes together thus far. Of course this is only the beginning. As things develop further posts will be inflicted upon you. Until then you kind comments would be most welcome...or you can just break an Old Man's heart.   

There are dark deed being done in the Old Graveyard beneath the pale moonlight. Jon Apflel leaves his entourage to stalk the night:







...maybe stop off for a pint & a game of darts while he's at it:


AND a better look at the Girls he left behind; the Foxx Sisters, Molly, Polly, & Dolly:




Madame De Sade; known to her friends as Dee Dee:


AND the Dread Assassin, Anne...painted by my dear friend, Anne O'Leary:


As the plot & the night thicken further FOUL PHOTOS will be inflicted on you, my Fellow Forum Folk...Bwahahahahahahaha!    
In the interim, your kind comments are once more requested.  

As the dark clouds pass across the face of the leering Moon, Shadowy figures flicker in & out of sight, mere figments of the imagination...or perhaps not.

An Eerie Presence at the Gate:




A trio of Darkness emerges from the Crypts:




There, is that something by the Statue?:


...Yes!


I can already see the possibilities for all the terrain boards & painted minis. Your comments on them would be most welcome...mostly.  

After several pages of other things, I'm happy (relieved) to say Mungo Hammertoe, Bob the Blue Ox, & Spook the Talking Wonder Skull are FINALLY done. AND here are some TRULY AWFUL Photos of the Terrible Trio:

From a distance:






...Spook the Talking Wonder Skull (he started out as a silly looking skull that I couldn't figure out how to make into something serious; SO I made him sillier)...the mushroom doesn't look all that thrilled with the proximity of the Trio:


AND some close ups:




Hopefully over the next few days I'll get some better photos on one of the terrain boards for something artsy. Until then your comments would be welcome...for the most part.  

Good to see that you are still delivering the goods Deaf!

Thanks, Gatlag! I had actually stopped posting the latest photos, It didn't look like anyone was still here. SO since you still aboard, here are the missing update photos; AND I'll be putting up a few of the Dark Creeper I just finished later today:

If you go out The Woods today, you're in for a Big Surprise...well moderately big.     
Having more ore less completed five terrain boards, I thought the time had come to start photo tale of the Folks wandering through & living in the Spooky Woods & other disreputable areas. SO...

It's been another Saturday Night at Heep's. Mungo, Bob the Blue Ox, & Spook the Wonder Talking Skull are homeward bound:






As designated driver, Bob gets a closeup:


A Mysterious Lady appears by Heep's Bat Poop Cave of Unimaginable Aroma:




While gaming on the boards may or may not actually happen, the possibilities for photos & related stories is a viable & attractive option...at least for moi. SO...this thread may be getting some further attention. Be that as it may, your kind comment, as always, would be most welcome...mostly.  

Latter the same day...
A piece of the Darkness detaches itself & moves silently past Heep's Mushrooms & toward the cave's moonlight entrance.







This is Reaper's version of the (02886) Dark Creeper from the AD&D fiend Folio.
As always your kind comments would be appreciated.

Thanks Deaf, those last few are sure really nice! Wonder what that lady is doing there....
Also I don't know what happened here...Sure I can understand that people's real life can be busy. But we still can drop a line or two every now and then can't we? And of I had the admin powers I'd sure kick out those spam accounts!

The spam is brutal Gatlag, I check most forums from my phone so looking at multiple sub forums to find nothing but spam is frustrating. I still try and check back every now and then, but when the spam isn't even cleaned up, it suggests that even the mods/admins* stopped caring. Even if the accounts keep getting made, the posts could at least get deleted. 

*I don't know who has which rights so I'm making a generalization.

Thanks, Gaatag & Claus! I'm a Mod over on Tom's Boring Mordheim Forum. A Mod can lock out & delete a thread, but only an Admin can close an account. SO, Mordheimer or Dozer.or whoever would have to do it. I see the posting options have disappeared also. AND Mort's Mordheimer web site has been shut down...wasn't renewed.

Deafnala: great to see you still around.

Claus and gatlag, I agree. It is too bad. I never thought the game would stop like this for the past several years.

I contacted Dozer to see if he can take care some of the spam.

Hey Da Bank! It's good to see you also..so to speak.    
Mordheimer's Mordheim site is also no longer with us. That is a real loss.   

U r right, Mordheimer.com is down. Yup, it is a bummer.  Maybe once the web site fee is paid it will be back up.

I need to free up done space on Mordheim yahoo forum to postthis stuff.

There was much gnashing of teeth over the lost Mordheim site over at Tom's. Personally I just miss having Edwin around on a regular basis. It would be good to have you around more often also.   

Indeed a shame that Mordheim is down, hope this site won't follow...

Yes, too bad. But it had been going this way a few years. I texted Dozer about the spam. Hopefully, he can fix it. 

People can start their own forum or groups on DS. If a group wants to and has the time they can develop  on their own or get others to help. They can create something that fits their gaming style. Everyone does this and have house rules or modified club rules. You kniow just like Mordheim.They can do it privately, here or on their own forums. The main part, is if you enjoy playing then do it. This project stalled out about 2 years ago for various reasons. 

This is about gaming, people need to have fun and be creative.

With Dr. J's stuff nearing completion I've started thinking about what is next in line for The Project. One of those things that has me thinking is the ruins of Temerity O'Leery's Steam Punk Mushroom Tower:









I'm toying with the idea of adding lots of scaffolding & making it into a building in repair...possibly adding the Armor Cast Steam Mushroom Observatory up on the top tower. The Necromancer's Lab & the Vampire Bar & Grill under The Graveyard are also on the agenda...just nothing to take photos of yet. 
Be that as it may, your comments, kind or not, would be most welcome...for the most part.  

Man Deaf...i wish i had any money, i would totally be buying terrain from you! Awesome pieces

Thanks for the kind reply, Lydor. This could be cool once it's completed & a lot of fun in between.    
A lot of my stuff is given away to make room for new pieces. I'll keep you in mind when I start running out of room.

Nice rickety building, looks like it will stand for ages!

Thanks again, Gatlag! Although taller, it reminds me of my old neglected home on Long Island.
