More aids

Today I will delve into the history, the lore, and the incredible contribution of the magical item pictured above;

 THE 6" MEASURING STICK! 

I will also discuss some of the other incredibly dull things we do to enhance our playing of Pulp Alley.

Some of the aids we use to help stay organized in our Pulp Alley games

Thought I would share some of the things we do to try and make our Pulp Alley games run a little smoother.

 

Have a very Pulpy Christmas!

Something I built this past Friday

So with a Pulp Alley Lemuria campaign looming in the new year, and with half my gaming table occupied by an evil base for an as yet to be determined spy game, what do I wind up doing on Friday, but build an elevated highway! Madness!

Some more layout work

Administration area

Just a few pictures of some of the work in progress. This is really a little bit of a waste of time, as I will just have to remove everything when it comes time to actually build this monstrosity.

What it does do is allow me to try out stuff I have lying around to see what might work. Happy to see that the building blocks might work as quick walls. I had thought about cutting them out of foam board, but the wood blocks would be quick and easy to use. Either way I plan to cover the walls with printed out wall designs to try and cover what they really are.

Since these pictures were taken I have tested out a few more item, a helicopter pad, and a tall gantry. So in other words more pictures to come soon.

A plan for world domination ha ha ha ha.....

Step 1 Plan and build secret lair
Step 2 Build a dormant volcano to house the lair.

Optional Plan might be the other way around....

So another work in progress, hoping to get cracking on a massive build, a 3' by 3' (maybe with an extension) mountain, maybe 2' high. (we shall see)
At any rate I have found the critical starting point, I have found a monorail for the evil villain, (a must have if you have a dormant volcano)

Finally some progress on Venice

With a Venice Pulp Alley game slated for December 15th it would behoove me to finish off some of the half way done buildings. So with that in mind I have been hard at it for the last couple of days!
So while I primed then assembled all the buildings I have (20) I needed to add the windows, door frames etc. On top of that despite having primed the models in various colours, it did not prevent me from having to touch up, and or completely paint some of them.

Then I decided to try and pimp up some of the buildings with brick and stone textured paper. I think the results are not too bad, and the effort was not that bad, but it did slow down production.
