More stuff to work with

Life is good. Sun is shining, holidays since today and the last order arrived today. Finally I got myself some Vallejo pigments and some fantastic stuff for my gaming board. As you can see in the pic I got some furniture for the houses I build.


Additionally I got four more sheets of 10mm foamboard. At work they were going to trash them so I rescued them and took them home. Let the building begin...
I love holidays...

Today is a good day!

I'm just pleased how everything goes. 3 days to holiday and all preperations are going well.
Just got the PVA, some cardboard, knives, the styrene rods and the foamboard today. SoI'm well prepared for holidays to build at least the first half of my gaming table. The wooden tiles are ready too (not on the pic). So next week there will be lot more progress.

I always didn't like those model trees that are usually available out there. I dreamed of branches with some spare leaves on it. Also I wanted some leaves on some of my bases. So I looked around and found several offers of manufacturers that were all not really what I wanted. So days gone by.
Last Saturday I opened up the window in my kitchen and lots of seed flew inside and I got some kind of upset cleaning my floor again and again from those nasty little thingies. I was curious from where those things came and it turned out that those seeds come from the Birches that are in front of my house what is kind of obvious, but hey it was Saturday morning. So if any of you wants to have some decent looking leaves for any use, here's a little tutorial.
