Terrain Build 7/11/2015

NOVA OPEN

Hello All,

Saturday was the last official terrain build session for 2015. What an amazing year so far. We had a about a dozen folks show up for what turned into a bright (hot) clear day. Airbrush stations were set up along with some last minute priming with the house painter and even a dry brushing team saw action. For me the highlight was the impressive use of some good old spray paint cans to finish up some of the projects. As far as I can tell our projects are complete to a point we can live with. Some them will see updates for 2016 but are good enough for prime time use now.

So without further babble here are the pictures

Where did it all go?

The Back of the truck

Until “Show Time” the remaining weekends will be filled with NOVA events like the BBQ next week  and lots of prep for the administrative side of things. We need volunteers for this so don’t hesitate to contact me by leaving a comment or emailing novaopen at gmail dot com.

Well that’s it for now.

Terrain Build 6-27-15

Hello All,

Today we had our June build session, and despite the nasty weather it went quite well. We had around 15 people or so show up with a bunch of airbrushes. Well done gang!

Due to the rain we were forced to work in the garage so it was a little tight space wise. 

The fumes were a little heavy at times (notice the masks) so we ended up adding some fans. Despite all this we managed to get quite a bit done.
