New Dwarven Forge Set! Hellscape II

Another great set is available from Dwarven Forge: the Den of Evil Hellscape II. Looks like they they're trying a new way of selling this set. The main set has only eight pieces in it and costs $99 USD. Other sets at that price point offer more pieces which makes this set more expensive on a cost per piece basis. Sure the other sets pieces are smaller, but some have 16+ base pieces like the Ruins Set. Hey, I'm not complaining - just stating. Like that's going to stop me from buying it anyways. Heck, I ordered all the new pieces as soon as I got the newsletter!

Here's a pic of the pieces in the main set:

And some closeups of a couple of them:

The "new thing" that DF is doing is to offer some additional pieces that you can buy "a la carte". This allows the customer the ability to buy whatever pieces he or she wants. And who wouldn't want all of them? They're fantastic! These extra five pieces range in price from $12 to $39 USD.

As always, these pieces look great and I can't wait to get them in my hand to get a closer look!

New WMLP and update...

Spoooooky news everyone! The new issue of Wizards Mutants Laser Pistols is out now! Issue #3 is packed with lots of scary stuff to help you maximize your Halloween RPGing.

Pick up this issue here for a measly $3.50 in the US, $4.50 to Canada, and $5.50 to send overseas. While you're at it, you can also pick up copies of the first two issues as well! I mean, you want the whole set, right?

As for my update, I've been busy working on a couple of different projects lately. The main one I'm spending most of my free time on is quite detailed and intricate so it's taking quite a while. Progress is coming by the millimeter, but every so often, I get a week like this past one where part of it comes together nicely and it looks really awesome which inspires me to keep pushing forward. I'm keeping most of the details under wraps 'cuz, well, I can. I usually prefer to complete a project before blogging about it in detail, but a certain someone at work can't seem to wait. You know who you are.... So here are a few pictures of what I've done so far:

A lot of wiring went into this project. This is just one small section. 

What's this? A printed circuit board? You betcha, golly gee whiz!

Gears, motors, and hardware - Oh my!

I'm thinking it'll be a few more months before it's completely done. There's (at least) one *HUGE* hurdle to overcome first that might reserve the whole thing to a shelf somewhere to sit and just collect dust.

Thanks for reading and don't forget to get a copy of our latest issue of WMLP. I hope you enjoy it!
