I&#8217;ve had some good comments on it and it&#8217;s definitely given me some food for thought in my own Blender adventures.

Well, it&#8217;s mostly construction for ongoing projects. In terms of Necromunda, I&#8217;ve printed out a few more tiles to hopefully build up to a small board ready for when the Necromunda season starts. This setup has a mix of the Dragon&#8217;s Rest specific ones (with the tabs for walls and corners) along with the more GW designs with the raised details. I&#8217;ve mixed them together here for more of a street setup, with an L-shape of relatively open ground to mix with the more built-up areas. Once I finish printing off the last four pieces, then I&#8217;ll get to work on the walls, steps and gantries &#8211; all ready for people to plummet off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1278\" height=\"962\" src=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/PXL_20240908_182328789.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/PXL_20240908_182328789.jpg 1278w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/PXL_20240908_182328789-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/PXL_20240908_182328789-768x578.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/PXL_20240908_182328789-1024x771.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1278px) 100vw, 1278px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The project I should be finishing is painting up all my Old World Chaos figures for this week&#8217;s game. However, I&#8217;m feeling a real big painting funk at the moment &#8211; my head space isn&#8217;t in the right mood to sit down and get paint on model. However, I&#8217;m hoping to dig through a fair few this week (especially as the Corporate Regular Opponent isn&#8217;t around to distract me at lunch) so maybe a chunk of my force will be painted. Luckily the game day isn&#8217;t strict about painted models only but it would be nice if more than just a single unit was ready to go. We&#8217;ll see how I do in next week&#8217;s post!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s it for this week, with a new update coming next Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another week has gone by so it&#8217;s time for a new update.
