Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
I was awestruck by this display. The density of detail between the buildings, people, and ships, is almost overwhelming. This was the last diorama of the series (or the first depending on which way you were coming from). The California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento was worth visiting for this series of dioramas alone.
*Smuggler’s Cove*
This O scale narrow gauge layout, Smuggler’s Cove, built by Michael Flack and the late Geoff Knott in Australia, depicts a fictional New England fishing community modeled after towns in coastal Massachusetts and Maine. Small and large fishing boats and the steamboat Sabino near the Maritime Museum play a prominent role in this coastal diorama. Look for intricate details such as the scratch built lobster traps, floats, and fish crates stacked on the pier. How many seagulls can you spot in Smuggler’s Cove?
*Geoff Knott and Michael Flack*
The late Geoff Knott and Michael Flack were insprred to build Smuggler’s Cove after discovering the history of rum-running along the East Coast of the US, in the carly 1900s, their inspiration for Smuggler’s Cove came after Geoff and Michael traveled to New England and visited Cape Cod, Boothbay Harbor, Bar Harbor, and Kennebunkport, Geoff and Michael helped to popularize O scale models. <Layout furnished by the Australasian Region of the NMRA>.
This is the start of my Warhammer journey. I don't think I did a particularly good job, but this was the first time I had ever painted a model to begin with. I have a lot to learn, but I'm trying my best. Washes work slightly different from what I understood from watching YouTube videos.
I'm gonna try to do weekly updates on my progress with painting and putting together Warhammer minis, but don't hold me to that. I am a High School Teacher so I have other things I need to prioritize, but I'll try my best to get a post in at least once a week. So we'll just call this Weekly Post #1: A very Nurgle New Years
No, that's not true. I planned him to look this way from the start. I wanted to give him an early nineties Vaporwave-look to compliment the oldschool look of the model.
I doubted myself heavily during the painting-process, because, well, it's something else. But I finished him and I quite like him. Even if my phone's camera botched the colours so hard not even Photoshop could restore them to their natural glory. His paintjob looks like the background on the right, palette-wise.
