The Schoolbus.

The first of my "big vehicles" set:  The Schoolbus.

A great setting for a perilous showdown between your superheroes and supervillians, or your cops and zombies, or your aliens and national guard....just make sure you save the children.

LakeTown: more dock bits: the "spacers"

This piece is a spacer.
Not very glamorous I know, but important in the big picture.

In order to present a continous post/cross-beam/post/cross-beam/post face in the LakeTown model, the spacer goes between the high dock sections.
In the pic above you can see how this works....except for the one floating there all by itself (just to show what you're getting).

They've already been textured (a greyish weathered wood look) but I don't have enough made for a decent picture so you'll have to imaging it from the graphic above...I'll get one up later.

I've also included a few squares of the planking texture in this one, so you can use it for the interior bits of your model (mount it on heavy cardboard or foamcore...that way you don't have to build endless high dock bits....).

So download it here:

And if you actually build one, let me know....maybe send me the pics....

LakeTown: the dock platforms.

The first part of my LakeTown project.  Based on Tolkien's Esgaroth from The Hobbit.
Read about the town here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esgaroth

The dock platforms.  Pretty straightforward. One high, one low (not pictured here, but its in the PDF).

There's other bits to come: ramps, bridges, buildings...but you've got to put them someplace so we'll build the platforms first.

The Knarr: Viking Cargo Ship.

Got a lot of loot to move?  What you need is a seaworthy ship with lots of room for cargo:  the knarr.

These were the workhorse ships of the Vikings (when they weren't looting and pillaging).  These were the ships that sailed across the North Sea, the North Atlantic, up the Volga River....bringing trade goods, loot, slaves and settlers to and from everywhere the vikings went.

Here's a waterline model (a fairly big one: 16 inches long as printed, but you could always make it shorter) good for tons of loot, settlers, livestock, or anything else you want to cram in.

8 page pdf.

The Viking Drakkar Longship.

The Longship.  Also known as the dragon ship, or drakkar.

Here's a waterline model of a smallish warship...just the right size to transport a dozen or two of your best berserkers to some foreign port or monastery to sack....and burn...and pillage.

It's a four page pdf with options to make a short, or long, or very long ship.

With a few different dragon heads to fancy up your bowpost and instill fear into you hapless victims, and some oars for when the wind fails.
(the fig is from OneMonk from Cardboard Warriors)
