Warcry: Red Harvest - a self motivational project blog
Saturday 20th August
We are looking after our nephew and niece this afternoon and evening – but since motivation is still high I thought I would sneak in some more terrain construction in the morning.
This time it’s the Pit Dredger
Due to time constraints, I forgot to get any early pics.
The initial stages went pretty smoothly, continuing to clean all the cut points and mold lines.
Attaching some of the skeleton parts to the ‘work wheel’ got a bit tight for my old fingers, so out came the tweezers to help place some components.
But, I got there 😀
Then came some more easy bits….
But….. I next encountered the bucket chain.
It seems easy enough on the diagrams, however – I don’t have four hands, and I think that is what’s needed here ?
I found that the buckets that go on the chains have a little ‘play’ due to the flexibility of the chains. So I concentrated on getting the others in place first.
That gave me the ability to then fit the remaining ones without having to hold all six at the same time.
A few more basic bits, and the Pit Dredger is done 👍
Just one terrain sprue to go…..
(Plus all the painting too, of course)
@draconis Great stuff! Really enjoying your hobby journey… keep it up! ?
Thanks for that, appreciate the comment ?
I’m surprised that I have managed to get some hobby in each day, particularly after a long hobby drought.
Now have to overcome the painting stage…..
Oh, and build and paint the warbands ?
