rocket progress

so, a lot has happened on the rocket. i did not like the original decks, too flimsy, so i re did them with brass bars for the girders instead, so it is much sturdier. i have also finished the nose cone. the next step will be to do the interiors.

rocket!

so, i have not been doing much in awhile...or have i?...i have. i have been working on designing an atomic rocket! by which i mean designing a model of an atomic rocket. i had gotten fairly far with a particular method, but am unhappy with the results, and am now reconsidering, i may scrap what i have and start over, salvaging whatever i can. here are some progress picks, i love the engine and nozzle a lot, the rest is going to change.

octopus man

title says it all really. it is a man, who is also an octopus, who only has seven arms for some reason....

personal island

so, i saw this amazing drawing and had to make a model of it, by which i mean a model similar to it, because i dont have nearly the skill to reproduce it exactly. i tried a few new things on this project, most notably the materials i made the tree with, though the result is not bad, i shall not be doing them quite that way ever again.....ever.

Miniature painting

so, i have tried my hand at some miniature painting, it started with my painting the miniatures from the board game talisman, but to my surprise i found it fun, and decided to do one just for myself
