In addition we have a good selection of pretty good looking stuff made by many of the locals. <br /><br />If we had nothing or even a steaming pile of donkey droppings I might be excited about this piece. That is not the case. We have a good collection of some pretty good pieces and I refuse to accept something that is poorly constructed and poorly painted as something great just because it is different than what we have now. <br /><br />Funny thing though...I do talk with a lisp..Master Manipulator (every store needs one)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07746169880232935549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-82983757866371258632011-03-23T07:38:47.367-05:002011-03-23T07:38:47.367-05:00yes.yes.Evil Homerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08957793140182725695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-82673618116217943212011-03-23T04:54:48.777-05:002011-03-23T04:54:48.777-05:00Ugly terrain is better than no terrain!
Seriously...Ugly terrain is better than no terrain!<br /><br />Seriously, gamers are getting spoiled when they can complain that terrain doesnt match or that the paint is too thick. What are you, the 'Terrain Police'? A host of some wargame decorating show? "I don't like how the feng shui of this table! That tower should have its door facing south to let in the bounty of good luck from facing the GW shelves!" (must of course be said with a lisp...because thats the proper stereotype for a home decoration narrator!).<br /><br />Even if it was built with instructions- someone got off thier butt and made it! Made the Hirst art blocks(which is tedious in and of itself) and then spent the time assembling it. If there were 20 other identical towers to this one on your tables, and this was the worst example, I could see the distaste. But personally, Im more offended by unpainted figures then I am by terrain which might not match the decor of the rest of the imaginary battlefield it looks over....<br /><br />Do any of the towers detractors & critics make better terrain?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16757589097588823570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-24975020198936420842011-03-22T15:22:03.141-05:002011-03-22T15:22:03.141-05:00I like it.

Its too big and really does not fit with any of the terrain we have. Really...none of it.<br /><br />My other problem with it is the paint job. That is the reason I no longer have Larry paint my terrain anymore. Its all monochromatic and the paint is always applied too thick. Not to mention that the tower is not assembled that well to begin with and the thick paint makes it look even worse.<br /><br />One last thing....I am not impressed by something assembled using directions. Just like I am not impressed by someone building a truck out of legos using the instructions provided. Which he did...he followed them step by step. Well except for the parts where they tell how to make it fit together properly.Master Manipulator (every store needs one)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07746169880232935549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-4950095877619172522011-03-22T07:25:35.445-05:002011-03-22T07:25:35.445-05:00So now I affect if people like terrain or not.
