This is going to be a blog of indefinate length, it will be the place where I display all my scratchbuilding projects in the future, it won't be updated regularly, just when I've been bothered to make something. Currently I have two big projects (Warhound & Stompa, both on hold ATM) and have just completed a small project, a CSM Hellblade Fighter

This thing is made of card using templates from http://www.goldenboltersociety.com/paperhammer40k
It also has plasticard tubing for weapons and the thruster thingy at the back. Admittedly it still needs some work, namely a base, detailing, filling in the big holes at the front and back, and the all-important paintjob.

My next small project will probably be an IG sentinel, just because I want to

looks good so far, i may have a go at making one
working with card will be interesting lol.

By all means! BTW I have decided that after the sentinel I might try something a little bigger *Cough* Knight Paladin *Cough*

Ugh... Just looked at the sentinel templates, they are confusing and there are no instructions! The question now is whether to pick something else or just move onto the Knight Paladin... What do you guys think?

bleh, tried downloading the ork ones, but link is apparently broken, and it wont allow me to open the tau one lol, so ill try again later

Here's mine from the same template.
I used a pritt stick tube to fill the hole front and back and chopstick for the stand.

Wow, these just look great so far. Can't wait to see them all done and painted

@ JD 21290, yeah try again later, it usually works
@Alex, Wow! Nice Hellblade! Hopefully mine will turn out like that! I may steal your idea for the chopstick stand, as nowhere near me sells brass rod, which is a little dear anyway. I eat Chinese nearly every Saturday, so getting some chopsticks shouldn't be a problem
@Necros, Thanks! I'll paint the Hellblade as soon as I fill in the holes, probably with Greystuff

Anyway, I used some more of those templates to create this little piece of scenery. A Big Box (I just contradicted myself) I probably won't actually use this as it isn't very sturdy, I just posted it to prove that lazy people can make scenery! It has many good points:
1) You can just cut it out of paper, stick it together and BAM! Instant crate
2) Making a whole stash of these would about an hour
3) They are very light and can be stuck onto card or even plasticard for sturdiness
4) No painting required!
N.B. the colour is a bit off because my printer is running on empty (coloured ink anyway)

Don't let any Nobs hear me say this but, I love Grotz! ( "WHAT?) I love the little Buggers! I might even make an all-grot army one day! ( "HA! LIKE DAT WUD BE FIGHTY!) Love of Grotz begets a love of Killa Kanz, Grotz wired into death machines, thus was born...

Da Killbox!
(WIP)

Well, some WHFB scenery cometh from the forge, me and my friends are contemplating starting Mordheim (if so, I plan on a Goblin Warband that counts-as Skaven seeing as I can't find the O&G Rules and Skaven might work better for all Gobbos) If the campaign goes ahead, I will be making some terrain, here is the WIP of the first piece, 'Ye Olde Powdere Store' It is basically a Gunpowder shed that has been destroyed, I plan on making another named 'Ye Newe Powdere Store' which is intact

EDIT: I have since repositioned the pistol in the severed hand, it just made sense

I'm also going to take the Killbox off it's base, it just looks silly

Hmm, P4NC4K3, you've gotten me interested. Expect me to post here often. That's an awesome Hell Blade

i have just downloaded and printed off the hellblade template my self.

Draggin this thread screaming back to life, I notify yee that I haven't completely stopped doing anything!
The Killbox has been scrapped, it just wasn't working out...
Hellblade still needs paint
I made a pallette out of Balsa Wood Because I was bored*
Ye Olde Powder is finished construction and paint WIP*
Other stuff will probably happen too
