Agram Group Build Project #4 (part 2)
In this series of articles, we will follow our Goran, Kruno, Dalibor, Nino, Jelena, Domagoj, Borna and Marko in making a diorama / game board for the side game Full Tilt from the '90s. The board and miniatures are part of the new UMS “Agram” project called Agram Group Build which was created so that more people could participate in one joint project at the same time and learn something with fun. No prior knowledge or experience is important. With our experienced miniaturists, everyone will learn something.
Last Wednesday, the first demonstration workshop in the series on terrain building was held. Our Marko showed the audience how to plan a project, how to make rough drawings and sketches according to which parts can be made.
After an introductory lesson, he and Kruno set out to build a base for the entire terrain. The team decided to use a 5mm balsa wood. It is quite light and soft wood that is easily cut with a knife / scalpel, so it provides a very good possibility of usability of all parts. Kruno and Marko carefully cut the parts so that the cut parts can be used as bases for detachable parts of the terrain (stands, fences, etc.)
In the end, and in order to prepare the Workshop for this Wednesday, Kruno and Goran were given to cut coffee sticks from which the fences of the stands will be made. For the total length of the fence, 44 pieces 2 cm high, 34 pieces 4 cm high and 18 pieces 7 cm high will be needed.
Yesterday (Monday), Kruno's photos of cut slats arrived (Goran's are stuck somewhere in post :D).
And finally, advice from Dalibor, who was the first to work with figures. He decided to assemble horses for knights.
A little warning to horse painters: The tail should be inserted before gluing the left and right halves of the horse’s body. It may be immediately obvious to some, but I learned the hard way. And get ready for a little puttying ... fit of the parts isn't exactly perfect…
If you are interested in participating, contact us at ums.agram@gmail.com! We meet every Wednesday from 18-22h in KD ZZTK on Trg žrtava fašizma 14.
