StarCraft 2 terrain, Chapterhouse and "steampunk feral mecha"

I didn't feel like working on the figs last night. Too tired. Instead I pulled out some stuff to make another game table piece. Ive got 6 or 8 pieces of plywood each some 60x60cm that I intend to use as game table. I dont want to just cover em all with sand, but want to do something ... more. My goal is a sorta post-apocalyptic industrial rusty desert thing.

Now to rewind. I watched all the StarCraft 2 movie clips on their website this weekend with my 8 year old son who loved it all. So do I :) Have you seen the Protoss game play video? Its the first video they released way back. Check out the terrain. Its like a sci-fi city built into asteroids floating in space. Beautiful! Sci-fi technical stuff sticking out of the rock. Inspiration!

So with that SC2 map in mind I set to work last night wanting to build a piece for my table. Didnt finish it but Im happy with the progress. Photos will come once its assembled.

Then on a swedish 40k message board I noticed a discussion about Chapterhouse Studois which is a business that sells bits of their own design for 40k. Really cool stuff. Check em out. Anyway. On that board I found out that one of the sculptors is a guy from my neck of the woods! Even cooler. And he said that he was looking for concept art for new stuff to sculpt. So I PMed him and now Im all fired up to draw some sweet concept art that might end up being built and sold world wide. Coolest! :D

One piece Im working on goes by the working name "steampunk feral mecha". Itll be my new version of the ork deff dread which Im sorry to say isnt the best model GW has made. IMHO. Oh well. Hopefully Ill have som sketches to show by the end of the week :)
