TOPIC: Halloween Time

Yup, that's where I got it. My set is up to 8 or 9 molds now. Always happy to bring another to the addiction. Enjoy!<br /><br />So...now you know two things if you (or anyone) wants to get me a present. Hirst arts or utilikilts

I was tempted to get a couple...but for now I am still in the beginners stage of using foam and polystyrene...

I bought myself a little gift today...the Games Workshop book - How To Make Wargams Terrain.<br /><br />It is such a sweet step by step book - I can't wait to dive into Spooky Town and then make 4 more terrain boards for Dwarven Forge Minis that I have!<br /><br /> =D

Man I tell ya - this terrain building stuff is SOOO AWESOME - I bet ya anything I get a few boards going and then I will have to add some Dwarven Forge stuff to some of the set-ups.  (Jeff you sure I did not win the INDY drawing...???)<br /><br />Must focus on Spooky Town first...resist urge to make Tavern Town - or Dungeon...Must have decorations for Halloween up....mussst...resist<br /><br />Well most of the 6+ tubs of Halloween decorations have been un-packed today - some things are up in temporary locations until we really see where all of the new stuff is going to go.  Basically the entire Nightmare Before Christmas town is new - plus a bunch of new odds and ends - so space is going to be tight.  We are already talking about moving out a couch, table, and cat tree to make room for the dioramas and tables that will have to hold all this stuff.<br /><br />YIKES - then we have Christmas...must breathe - one month at a time...well in this case Halloween gets a full two months - and Christmas gets about that as well.  <br /><br />But I don't think I will do much outside this year for halloween...save that for Christmas.<br /><br />G

That Hirst site is inspirational genius.  The hobby geek in me... must resist... temptation...

SEEEEEE.....all it takes is starting on the small stuff, and next thing you know, you're building a true dungeon in the basement.  Same principal, different scale.<br /><br />which makes me wonder, when is So-Cal?  Is there a different set of wall for it?  Could we use the Indy set of walls to make a haunted house here in INDY, to further augment the TD pocketbook?  Or rent them to an existing Haunted house?

<br />Nope same set of walls. SoCal isn't unti mid-November, but the walls are in storage in Illinois.

  Spooky town sounds very Cool, I do the same thing for christmas, I have about 80 major pieces, plus acceseries, rails and rolling stock. have fun.

Yep -= same principle =- different holiday!

OK - I put some Diorama Project pictures up on Flickr:<br /><br /> http://www.flickr.com/photos/57896672@N00/sets/72157594287215297/ <br /><br />Let me know if you can see them...<br /><br />Enjoy!<br />G

Yay for pictures!<br />Thanks for sharing those Bro. *HUGS*

Glad you could see them - had to put them as a SET so I could get the order the way I wanted it.<br /><br />Flickr is pretty cool - and I'm just learning it.<br /><br />As for the Spooky Project - it goes slow - but next comes undercoat paint and then glue on ballast and turf - so I am looking forward to that very much.<br /><br />Did not do anything on that project today - was working Halloween inside the house.  I will try to get some house shots and post those as well...<br /><br />HAPPY HALLOWEEN Everyone!<br />G
