Imagination is never limited.

"To Infinity - and Beyond!" - oh, sorry - wrong cartoon character, but the sentiment is appropriate.

That's some nice micro-scratchbuilding there.

Tis Easter; the perfect time to pay tribute to Al Bunrab!
Behold a hippo building The Pillars of Al Bunrab!

Orkness has been started! There's an actual building now! Huzzah! All hail the Hotel Grunthos!

Soon there shall be the Spannanoggin'z Garage. And a chippy.

Are we expecting a carpenter's shop, or a fried fish and chipped potato emporium? Either (or both) would be appropriate!

Orks don't use wood. They used to, but then they figured out how to steal metal from the empire, along with how to bully grots into mining and smelting the stuff. So it's achip shop. Because chips are clearly the orkiest of food. Clearly.

You only have to look at the crowd spilling out of certain fish'n'chip shops on a Saturday night to see that they're clearly popular with orks...

From the distant wastes of Orkness, the sound of thunderous engines draws near...

See the full build article.

The chip shop is underway. There will be no TFH ishoo dedicated to it since it uses the exact techniques used on the Hotel Grunthos. But there will be pics once it is done.

Greetings once more! Long has it been since this thread saw the light of day as all my recent projects, being Orky by nature, have ended up in the orky thread of or pertaining to the Pudding Wrestler. But no more I say!
Come with me now on a journey through space and time to the mid(ish) 90s and the lost are of Cardboard Cottage Construction!
Yes - a back to basics tutorial designed for the besieged student of Gippsland which uses only junk they have around the house and incidentally allows me to relive my teen years hunched over a glossy new copy of the red version of How To Make Wargames Terrain!
BEHOLD! THE CARDBOARD COTTAGE!
