Keeping an eye on this one!

Max Carr, sculptor of minis with Heritage games, and author of the generic wargame Warlord looks to be getting back in the business!

All indications is that the "new" game is a retread of the mid 80s "Warlord", which is fine by me since my copy is starting to get a bit ragged. 

after looking at his catalog, I'm going to have to get me some revolting peasants!

If you want to follow his progress, just go to his website

The Final Step

Overall it took 12 days, Construction consisted of 350 460 linear inches of 1" x 1/2" x 1/2" gothic blocks (mostly from #40), luckily many of those blocks are grouped together in 2" & 3" sections. there is 144 square inches worth of floor tile (mostly from #201), 11 skulls (#70), and various bits from #54, 80, & 85. It comes in at about 10lbs, and it is based on a 15x18 piece of 1/4 plywood.

Step by Step (Updated)

My latest project is a Step Pyramid for the tabletop, the base will be 12x12" + an additional 1-1/2" for the stairs that outcrop on the front, the overall height should come in at 7".

I figured this would be a great centerpiece for my lizardman army... then I realized I dont have a lizardman army...

Pictured below is the initial "temple" and the top two steps, the walls to the bottom step is glued together and drying as I type this.



Update: Fully assembled, ready for paint
