Its not gloss but catches the light enough to look like moisture on the surface. The lacquer gives an appearance of wet ground due to the shine on it. Finally a heathy coat of my favourite Halfords lacquer all over to seal it properly. I left it for a bit but before the paint fully dried I sprayed brown and dark green from a distance to add some colour contrast. Then armed with a can of cheap black primer I gave all the boards a base coat. I left it all to dry and then touched up some bits I missed either with more sand or filler.
Once I’d done that I put PVA glue on areas and covered with sand. I tried to avoid brush strokes or lines while trying to stop large peaks of filler appearing. I smeared filler on bits of the board and then used on old brush and stippled over the blobs to spread them out a bit. Don’t get me wrong, I love my hobby but messing around with a pot of filler and a tub of sand creating texture and depth to these tiles was fantastic!
I must say, this is the most hobby fun I’ve had in ages. I stayed up way passed my bedtime last night working on my board. Well, so far so good!! My adventures with Mag Bellum have advanced rather swiftly.

Mag Bellum III Not the same as throwing dice in person but a jolly good way to get your wargame fix in these socially distant times we find ourselves in.Īnyway, I depart with gloomy picture of the ancient relic that seems to be at the heart (quite literally in some cases) of the plot.Ĭheers. I’d certainly recommend online wargaming. The online game is proving to be a real hit and each week brings new twists and turns. I love little projects like this and it’s further enriched the game and story we are telling. Heres some work in progress shots and the finished article. Alex over at is running a roleplay/wargame over Zoom and this is a recurring symbol we keep seeing…. Next up is a key! A 3d printed key given to me by the ever talented Mark. It’s based on a Mag Bellum circle base so I can use it on my board as well. I’ll throw some paint at it and post an update. I’ve given it a black spray with an overspray of incubi darkness.
I added some icons and added some spindly arms to the base. I’ve had a resin fountain in my bitz box for years and after reading the post I knew exactly what I wanted to do… The first challenge Mark has set is to think about what Daemon inkwells might look like. I need to start building really, otherwise I’ll end up changing my mind countless times and then theres the danger of not finishing anything! I’ve been making copious notes in my notepad.
MAGTOOL JUMPER FULL
His initial posts about the campaign have been incredibly inspiring and I have a head full of ideas about my warband. I’ve made this for The Daemon Ink Inq28 campaign being written and run by Mark over at. But I’m excited about them so wanted to share…įirst up we have a Daemon Ink Fountain. Base plates are cheaper than magazines, that is why I cut them instead of the projections on the magazine tubes.Thought I’d post a couple of bits that I’ve been working on. Without the vise I would need four hands to do this.Ī helpful hint : I shave the 90 degree angles of the notches in the base plate to about 45 degrees, making it nearly possible to dismantle the things with quite as much profanity. I now use this tool instead of the little wooden blocks, but I still have to put the thing in a vise. There is a tool to make this easier: GTUL | Simple and Effective Glock Magazine Cleaning Tools
If you can do all of this without boogering up some of the plastic parts, you are a better man than I am. I cannot disassemble a Glock magazine without saying something nasty about the designer of these parts. Then, push the base plate forward, while using new and innovative curses. When that is accomplished, hold both the magazine and the base plate in position while you drive the Glock Armorer's tool down through the hole in the base plate as OklahomaSafeShooting says. I have used a bench vise with little wooden blocks to gently squeeze the sides of the magazine in enough to get the projections clear of the notches in the base plates. The projections, about 1mm high and about 4-5mm long centered on the sides of the magazine are the source of your (our) misery when it comes to disassembling Glock magazines. Look closely at the magazine and the base plate, and you will see rectangular projections from the magazine that fit into the base plate. Click to expand.It is a hard squeeze indeed.
