Rogue Trooper's collection

First attempt at a cigar. It's ok, but I think I can do better.....

I’m really liking the homemade cigar Chris.

I’m liking the random cigar and cigar long pipe pictures Chris. It’s great to see that you’ve had some figure time.

Great work Chris!

Cheers fellas. I thought my steampunk fella needed a long stem pipe..

SMOKING IN THE BOYS ROOM

I love this Chris,


Great work

Cheers Gunner

Slowly adding furniture to the study. Although I will need to do something about the tops of the books.

Very cool Chris, you have done a marvelous job there mate

Cheers Dal

loving the bookcase Chris ...

The books look fab.. not much work to be done there imo

The bookcase looks even better with books and artifacts on it!

When I first saw the work in progress pics, I thought it was a full-scale bookcase you were refurbishing to display your figures in, not a miniature piece to be part of your display! Nice work!

Thanks fellas

If it's just the white edge showing that concerns you then I think just run over them lightly with the edge of a dark brown texta or pentel pen. This will make them blend in with the book covers. Otherwise the whole set is coming together very nicely Chris!

Cheers Barry..yeah it's the page edges that I need to sort.

Yes I see what you mean now. Where you have used the corrugated cardboard for the bulk is showing.
What if you printed a long strip of paper with very fine lines and then cut lengths of it and glued it to the top of each book?
It would give the impression of the sections of a book. "Signatures" I think they are called.

That's exactly what I want to do Barry. I've spent this evening searching the web for something to use..no luck so far.

You guys are getting in to the serious detail work now! Fascinating stuff! Good ideas! Looks good already, but apparently it's going to look even better!

Can't you just print yourself some on your computer?
Very easy to arrange with even the simplest of graphic programmes.

A quiet day at RTHQ

Looks like the study is busy today Great shot!

Thanks Dal.

I've given Suzi a backpack...not entirely happy with it, but it will do for now.  I've also been experimenting with making leather bracelets again. This one was inspired by Morten Harket of Aha fame. Not a great picture,  but its plaited.


This is Mina. She was the first female figure I ever bought. Originally she was a soldier, but Freya is wearing a lot of her gear so I put this together. A kind of agent/spy look maybe...I apologise for the pic....too much light.

The bracelet looks great Chris! Cool look for the new/old figure!
