Urgat's terrains and paperworks

[Lorcryst]

Will try to remember to take my camera with me next Sunday ... we didn't play with the river set yesterday (yeeesh, 0:35, it's already Monday !) ...

Oh BTW, sorry I didn't leave feedback on your store, I'm not a member of the right social networks for that ... feedback here is OK ?

[Urgat]

It's turned off for now I think, you won't be able to, most likely. I have to look into it. And yeah, it's time for me to go to bed too xD

[Urgat]

Ok, the Obelisk of Dusk is done:

I've removed the grass base which wasn't really thematic, I've made it bigger (goes a long way to make it simpler to build), touched up a couple things here and there, et voila. I only have the instructions left to do, and it's good to go.

[Little Joe]

Nice, very nice. Unfortunately not something I could use, since I restricted myself to terrain for armies I have. The other obelisk is also great, very 3D. I hope these do well.

[Urgat]

Ah well, that's a shame, and since I'm basically doing all the entries from the terrain generator in the BRB, there won't be many things that will interest you.
Anyway, the DE obelisk is up!

[Lorcryst]

As promised, I played a game this Sunday afternoon with the river set and the "sample" pond, and took pictures ... still need to buy and print the roads and the two obelisks, maybe at the end of this month if my budget survives the hunt for Squigs on eBay ...

Anyway, here come slightly blurry pics of the aforementioned pieces in action (please forgive some unpainted models and proxies ... the game were Warriors of Chaos vs Dwarves in a Battle for the Pass and a Battle Line scenarios, and I wanted to try some combos before buying the models for my WoC armies) :













This is the best feedback I can give, the river is a real pain for Chaos armies (even more so when slowed down by an Anvil of Doom), but it is a pleasure to play with, models slide over it without problems, the details are superb, and it's largely long enough for a 6x4 table (we even had one section left after bisecting the table).

Enjoy the pics, and once more, THANK YOU Urgat for your marvelous work !

[Urgat]

Your welcome, and thanks for the pictures May I suggest you cut the white away from the pond? It will look way better even if you get away with the pointy ends of the grass that goes over the white, trust me. Just cut a line in the grass area as if there was an abrupt end to it like for the rivers (well, like I did in the first post of this topic).
While I'm at it, the next piece of scenery is in good shape for a release soon. It's probably what anybody would have expected me to start with... take a guess
And next is something my g/f coerced me to make. It's got to do with a rather unfeminine taste of hers, and it is at the same time short and high and, is the biggest thing I've been doing yet. What could it be

[Lorcryst]

Yeah, the white borders of the pond really clash ... I've left them at the place where I play, so I'll try to recut it next week

Hmmm ... first guess : an Idol of Gork Or Possibly Mork ? Or a goblin hut maybe ...

Second guess, the G/F induced one : a Dwarf Statue/Monolith/Runic Plinth ?

[Urgat]

First guess is right, second guess is not completely wrong If you think that for now I'm only doing BRB terrain, it shouldn't be to hard to guess.

[Little Joe]

A dwarven brewhouse?

[Urgat]

Yep, it's a dwarven brewery Not too sure yet if I'm going to go for a regular building, or something more fortified, like a brewery-themed tower. As for the orc idol, I've taken a particular approach to it, I hope people will like it.

[Little Joe]

I have the paper one from the old "The Grudge of Drong" campaign set. Well, as in: "It is still in the sheets in the box somewhere around here" (stored dry).

That is not unfeminine, check out a Dutch female student house bar. Some even drink more then I can. The part thereafter of being drunk is bad for both sexes. Besides a lot of girls drink wine by default, making French men...

[Urgat]

Hehe, my better half has a taste for beer (unlike me)

Anyway, here's a sneak peak of the orc idol:

It's not finished, there's also going to be weapons and shields and hanged bodies and stuff you'll be able to add where you want. Contrary to one might expect, it's also going to be very simple to build, there's only 5 very simple parts to the idol itself (one for the mud "base", one for the "jaw", two for the "skull", and one for the pit between the jaw and the skull.

[Lorcryst]

Whoa ! That sneak peek is STUNNING !

Me wants ...

[Little Joe]

+1 Yes, that is truly stunning.

[Andy_T]

That idol looks great! good work

[Nkari]

I must praise you for this imho original idea for an orc idol.. its awsome.. =)

[Mallo]

Ork Idol is excellent!

[dementian]

Urgat, fantastic work on these pieces.

I fully plan to purchase some of the pieces (I'm pretty impulsive so probably all of the pieces) in the next week or two. The idol of Gork...or is that Mork? Looks freaking awesome and I can't wait for it to hit your store.

[Urgat]

Hopefuly (I stress it as in "not garanteed") it will be released friday. There's really little left to do, the idol itself is done. It's mostly a problem of me working on night shift these days and being a tad too tired to work on it at all when I get back home. Break tomorrow till friday though, so hopefully I'll put the finishing touches by then.
Thanks for the comments anyway, it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside
