Future Fonts

 

A quick pointer\reference post, partially for myself.

I always have issues with fonts for signs, banners, etc for Sci-Fi Terrain, but I've come across the perfect site with loads of free cool fonts at dafont.com.

Many look ideal. I did a test install to my Windows 11 PC and it worked perfectly in GIMP. Simple.

Should be useful.

Sci-Fi Recycling Truck

 

After printing it out ages ago I finally knuckled down and painted another vehicle from Digital Taxidermy, namely their "Omni-truck public service vehicle MK1". Even with a not-that-well-dialed-in 3D PLA print it's still turned out nicely.

It's a great big recycling truck for the more "meatier" waste of the future city. It'll do a great job blocking line of site for those cross street dashes!

Small Amounts of Chaos.

 A wee respite from the Sci-Fi miniatures on the table at the moment.

First model is a kit bashed mutated dwarf I picked up on Ebay years ago and has been sitting around half painted for nearly as long. It's not the most sophisticated customisation ever but fits nicely with my mutant options of my slow-build Chaos Warband.

The other two figures are from Ral Partha Europe. One is from their Chaos Dwarf line-up and the other is a Chaos Knight from a limited "Oktoberfest" release last year. Once started the RPE miniatures rattle off nicely as they are unfussy sculpts and I have an established paint scheme for them, so expect another couple "soon".

Airfix Messerschmitt Bf109e

A staple for the finished model collection, alongside the Spitfire and Hurricane, is obviously the Messerschmitt Bf109, so I'm glad to get mine done.
