Propapalooza, week 6 (2024 week 35)

More props this week loosely gathered under "mining stuff" for better or worse and kicking off with broken half-walls. These are pretty thin and defied proper magnetization. Also, since they're so thin, they almost never stand properly. If I were smarter, I'd have glued them to actual bases and put some texture on them and all that but I clearly didn't. That doesn't mean I won't in the future, but that's a Future Me Problem (TM).


Next up we have some very dwarfy minecarts and shovels in piles of rocks. At the time of this writing, I've been revisiting Dwarf Fortress so these feel more familiar than they probably should. I painted the two shovel vignettes at different times and their very contrasting paint jobs really show that. Probably the one on the right is too dark.  Probably the minecarts could use some better highlights.


Next up we have a couple skulls with axes in them and boulder-squashy skeletons. You know, as you do. I have to think that if you have an axe and find a skull, there's a very short timer that goes off before you want to stick one into the other. None of these are quality paint jobs (obviously) but they are all painted. I rather expect the squashy skeletons to get more screen time than the axe skulls. I'll let you know.

 

Last up we have a couple wheel barrows, a tool that I desperately need in real life. This time they were painted at the same time but I wanted to vary the color so they got different contrast paint basecoats. Also note the extreme laziness on the bases which are only painted green. I couldn't be arsed to flock them. 

2024 finished mini counter: 224/208
