In this video, I'll be taking you through the process of scale modeling and building a miniature Roman arch. I'll show you how to texture XPS foam using aluminum foil and pencils, and how to finish the miniature with a coat of plaster and paint. Maybe we can learn some Latin words along the way?

    Having the intact statue be removable and used as a encounter is a great call. Makes me think of the Harryhausen Colossus. Of course my mind also goes to pulling double duty for 40k with a Marine statue switch out. This, Zrop Minas Tirith, Eric's roman columns building. Theres something about these type of builds that I gravitate towards

    Nice work Knarb. And Latin now too? Takes me back to my Catholic school days... (almost as far back as Roman architecture really). The Roman's likely only used their laser cutters for the planning and design phase of the project. Maybe for tabletop terrain and minis too. World conquest takes strategizing. I like that you're branching out from 40k. Having said that, I desperately need to find a Librarian terminator kitbash video. Nobody must use them in game because I can't find a decent model. Hope the new game is doing well. I haven't had a chance to check it out yet but maybe I'll have some time over the holidays. Take care and Happy Holidays.

    Lightning Geopop, Detroit edition: during the pandemic, municipal actors have demolished most vacant and decrepit buildings and warehouses which dramatically reduced squatters and gang activity: and just in time. The reshoring of heavy industry from China is mostly coming to Houston, Texas, but since many empty factory buildings still serviceable in Detroit still have needed electric, gas, and water infrastructure for machine fabrication. The land is cheap, and the population wants to get back to work. Detroit's worst days are behind it. Look for Detroit to be a break out in heavy machinery in the next 8 years!
