Villains Lair (WIP)... Turbine/Power & Nefarious Device rooms ...

Needed an extra suitable room, so bashed a box file, the concept..

with retaining strips to slot in back and side walls done; with a gap left to add a floor

Walls and floor slotted in...
Setup to be  a turbine/power room; with scratch built control panels, turbines and associated power equipment (made from cardboard and anything I had which looked appropriate, including an old radiator thermostat).


Another box file (bashed some time ago, swappable walls, but with a fixed floor), use to house the nefarious device with a control panel made from cardboard - also gets some scientists to work on it..
the mad scientists ....

Professor in Trouble games (prepping and tidying up...)

 I'm currently tabulating all the Professor in Trouble games, with a view to proving an overview narrative PDF with links to blog posts or a PDF with all the posts text and pictures included.

In the process I may revisit and tidy up the format of some the relevant blog posts.

The tabulation scheme I'm using will also help plan/storyboard future games (such as 'Evil villains lair').

Kings African Rifles - 'in policing uniform'

A few oddment figures painted up to represent Kings African Rifles in their policing kit..
