A call to arms for SARGE

 So over on Delta Vector, EvilMonkeigh has written a great critique of SARGE and a gently worded prod (one might say "demand") that the author (me) not let this idea languish.  Since the Kickstarter is in a down period before fulfillment begins, I'm game to give it a go.

I think all it really needs is more examples and diagrams.  That's easily said but I'll need to come up with a method of doing those diagrams more quickly.  I was using a battle report software that seemed easy but I had trouble getting it to do exactly what I needed it to.  I do have Affinity Designer so this would be a good time to break it out and really learn it.  What I need isn't that complex so a few green circles for trees and brown squares for houses would be fine.

There's nothing like someone praising your work to give you new incentive to finish said work!

Here's the article -- it's a really clear explanation of what I presented, so I guess I was able to describe it at least well enough for someone else to take it and summarize it!

Kickstarter Accomplished

 I don't think it will really hit me until the box with all the castings shows up at my door, but my SciFi Dino Kickstarter was an overwhelming success.  You can still late pledge by emailing me.

And if you don't know what I'm talking about, take a look here.

Garden Ninja paints the Ganorn

 This is the first time I've had something pro-painted but I figured my Kickstarter was the time to do it.

Kickstarter launching July 1, 2021!

 At last, everything has come together.  I'm launching a Kickstarter!  3 years ago I had an idea, hired a concept artist, hired a sculptor -- and now on July 1 I'll be raising the money to get the production molds made to bring these little guys and gals to life. 

Presenting the Ganorn -- 32mm sci-fi dinosaurs cast in resin.  There will be two rewards -- 1) One each of the 10 poses and 2) a "unit builder" of 5 standing and 5 kneeling models (these look great ranked up into a Victorian Sci-fi firing line!)

It's been a long journey with lots of ups and downs -- not least of which the pandemic which scuttled my plans to launch this last year -- and I'm glad it's reaching the end of the beginning. 

Saxon houses 3d-prints for Dux Brit

 I am calling it Dux Brit because I can never remember the spelling of the darn game! You know, the Dark Ages battle game by Too Fat Lardies.

Anyway, found these great Saxon buildings on thingiverse.com, printed and painted them, then tipped the sculptor and posted the makes back on thingiverse (always tip your sculptor!!! Seriously. They took the time to share something with you, give them a fiver back).  And here they are - several buildings and a neat church (which has some issues printing but nothing a little CA glue won't fix)
