Being a modeller for quite a few years now, I decided to explore the endless possibilities that the world (through internet) offers, and come up with a series of ways of building, modelling and painting fast (but not hastily), to create the worlds I was seeing in history books since I was little. . .If you care to join me. . . This is the place to be! And, I promise you to find the way (or ways)!!

How to: base model trees

Greetings everyone!

Hope you are all well and that you had a pleasant weekend.

Today I am going to show you how to base model trees. I know that many of you would think that this is too basic stuff for you, but to be honest, I wanted to share my method with you, because through this tutorial I thought to add something new on my blog for your pleasure. 
Below you will see a sequence of photos referring to the basing method, but, in the end of this post, you will watch a video I prepared, based on my photos, showing the same tutorial but in a video mode (enriched with some music). It was one of the thoughts that were crossing my mind (to add videos in my blog) for quite some while now, and I hope that since I made the beginning, I will carry on and produce similar videos (of better quality - I still have a lot to learn) of new things I am planning to make. Perhaps I will make the same thing for past tutorials, if there is a public outcry! :-)

Anyhoo...

Which method would you prefer? 

Have a pleasant Monday night everyone!

How to: Make a small field

Greetings everyone!

It's been what? Ages since my last post from what I can see? Yeap....you are probably right. As you may have noticed, I wasn't very ''present'' in our blogosphere, for various reasons, which I am not going to use them, so to achieve some sort of redemption from you.

We have a saying here in Greece: Excuses are like cheap shoes; in the end you will find one that suits you best - but, as we all know, cheap shoes don't last long. :)

So nuff with me talking - no more talking, only pics of what I've finished last night. I know that I am inexcusable. :) 

I trust that the pics below are self explanatory - they are showing the basic steps in making a small field that can be used in various periods. But, if you have any queries, comments are open for you either for swearing at me or asking me things about this little gem. The choice is yours. :)

So....





















I hope you like it.
Have a great Thursday night everyone!
