Just to say "Hi!" to the community. I'm a longtime Grognard (starting with OGRE in 1977), but recently I've been producing my own paper models - at first as pimped counters for the old Metagaming Microgame "Ram Speed", and then for OGRE. I happened upon Wormhole last night on BGG - make your own stuff space combat? It sounded like a dream! I downloaded the Particlebow Frigate and did some printing at 44% (because it fits on 4"x6" card and I like my stuff cute), and made myself a fleet. Say hello ladies! There's probably a good reason, but there are four PBFs to ten stands to nine bases. I printed out 2 sets of PBFs but still ended up with a base and two stands over. Stands? Meh. But it seemed a pity to waste a base... After a little thought I printed out another set of PBFs and combined them into a "Star Tail". I used half of the spare three bodies to form the tail-piece - each one rotated at 90 to its neighbour. Here's a side view. And finally from the top - you can see I didn't quite pull off the recess on both sides amidships - next-time maybe... It's not really a kitbash, as I haven't actually altered anything, but I had easily enough fun in 24 hrs to "buy in" today. And having done so I'd like to say that for such a small company, your production values are amazingly high. The rule book is beautiful, as is the website. Hearty congratulations! Simon* |

Hey thanks for that h3rne! Its great to know that the free Particlebow actually does its job in drawing in new blood. The mod you did looks fantastic! Another great example of the kind of fun you can have with the core models and a bit of imagination. Wormhole was driven by pure stubborn will and a lot of very late nights. A labor of both love and a touch of torture but it was great to get it out the door. It was a truly fantastic learning experience. It's still finding its feet but we will likely give it more focus in future. Enjoy! |
