Murals

Here is a link to a Kingsport News report about the Splash pad.  I also put the link on my Facebook timeline.  Although I am not mentioned  Mrs. Blair hired me as an independent contractor/Artist to paint all the animals like the Ocapi, and Tamarin Monkey, while everybody else did trees and bushes.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp6_zvU2ZFo

I still have photos from the days I worked on it.  I hope to be able to post more of my artwork when I have time.  Hope you enjoy it!

Stuff I made while I had a minute...

Yay, just won my first game of 40k. BAs vs Screechs Imperial Guard.  Sad thing was all I took was basic units. No upgrades on anybody. Went cheap n spread it out. My buddy Joel took some pics of the terrain, counters, and markers I made for the game.

 Drop Ded Red Dred Pods!I also made the explosion markers for destroyed vehiles.  Screech offered to buy some if I made them but he got pizza last game so I called it even tween friends.

 
 

The Orbital Strike Cannon I made was something I wanted to use for some new scenario ideas I had. Screech was more interested in the "Flat Out" vehicle dust cloud markers. He was playin w my bikes pretendin they were powersliding... Ahem..and of course I dont have money for incredibly overpriced 40k models now so I made drop pod templates for my Dredd boys... I renamed my Red Dred "Cool Aid Man". "Oh Yeah" Thanks for the pics Joel. Good game screech. The close ones are always more interesting.
      Maybe next time if anyone is interested wanted to have rules for the strike cannon terrain in some new scenarios.  Liked makin stuff, havnt had a good creative outlet in a while for my art.

There is a season for all things....

"Knowing ones self and knowing the other, in one hundred battles no danger..." -General Sun Tzu.

This is my first "Blog". I have never made one and am showing my girlfriend what they are.  She would like to make one so I am walking her through this one.  The idea of blogging is odd to me.  Seeing as I am introspective and not likely to blab to the world about how awesome  my smoothie was.  I also used my friend Joels blog as an example.http://nevernesshobby.blogspot.com/
    We play a game called Warhammer 40k or forty thousand.  Its a futuristic strategy wargame and hobby I commonly describe to non-gamers is like chess.  My friend journals our games and strategies on his website.   This ridiculously long link can take you there.  Just click on the country.  http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/globalLanding.jsp?gotoGWSPage=http%3A//www.games-workshop.com/gws/home.jsp  Thank You, until next post....
