7 Wonders of Antiquity (The Library: Article) I have wondered how to name this article. The number seven is found across all cultures and the number of articles about "*The Seven Something"* is ever growing. Many more than seven articles have provided subjective views of the Seven Wonders and the meaning of number 7 and I provide a list with comments at the very end of this article. https://read.cash/@Librarian The Seven Wonders of the World often refer to the **seven…

A rock formation that I built around 1993 / 1994 for scenery and modelling. I built it with layers of Styrofoam glued together and painted and then added the grass flock. In the future, I will post images with combinations of these along with backdrop scenery that I painted. #artwork #photography

I think one day "performances" themselves will be NFT'd. I've followed the Starcraft II scene from a distance for years and I know many other esports and sport games are also huge. This synergy of Gaming / Sports / NFT / Betting, all in a decentralised manner is huge. Add to that the VR / augmented reality (metaverse) and the synergy will mature into an enormous market. X-Chain, X-Game, X-Player economies. Looking back at Diablo 3's failed RMAH, they could have solved it…

@Librarian

Taking photographs of some artwork I did in the past. This was built around 1993 / 1994. If you like this, check some of my previous posts in Photography. I will upload more in the future. I it used as scenery for wargaming (Warhammer specifically). Obviously, it is a tree and a rock. I bought the tree and glued it on a piece of Styrofoam and the rock is also a chunk of Styrofoam. #artwork #photography

Sections of a modular river. I built those around 1993 / 1994. I will post additional photos in the future to show how those sections can be placed together to form a "real" river. :D I have tons of material like this and you can check my previous posts to see some of them. Thanks for checking my artwork and photos. #artwork #photography

@Librarian

This is the same modular river I showed yesterday, but with different configurations. I also added a miniature house, also built around the same time, during the Golden Age of High Elves, circa 1993 / 1994. #artwork #photography

@Librarian

I built this large hill around 1993 / 1994 using Styrofoam, carved in the shape of a hill, with paint and grass flock. This particular grass flock is often called "Burnt Autumn". The small house came with the boxed edition of Warhammer Fantasy Battles 4th Edition. Part of the goal with such a large hill, is to allow a regiment of miniatures (archers) to be deployed on two ranks (one on top of the hill and one at the bottom). This way, all archers in the regiment can shoot…

A small rock outcropping all built from the same piece of Styrofoam, which I built around 1993 / 1994. I have also taken a picture of the underside! You can see the original 27 year old Styrofoam. See my channel for more picture like this of scenery for miniatures wargaming or train setups. #photography #artwork

@Librarian

This is some more scenery elements which I built around 1994. This one was built with the intent of creating fake jungle. I learned my lesson! Fake jungle is hard to do. The result is not too bad but really like I wanted. I have many more pieces of miniature foliage and also some new ideas to make this piece look more realistic. The tree was made with some metal wire to give strength and structure. Then I used layers of newspaper with flour and water and white glue to stick…

New crates on Rollercoin! Get your Christmas crates now. I bought mine and was lucky to get a 20 TH/s miner for the price of 10 RLT. Check out the new exclusive miners that are in along with the new parts system. #games #gaming

@Librarian

Here we go again! I just found a post in the "Blockchain Gaming" which was approved and yet contains a Ref Link. For the same game I was talking about in my Post that got blocked because "Ref SPAM". This is soooooo frustrating for Noise.cash to have rules depending on who the user is. What's the explanation this time? Why is "Me,me,me" able to post stuff with his Ref.Link but I was flagged as a SPAMMER? Doesn't make much sense... @mercurial9

@Librarian

Combining small hills with bigger ones to get unique scenery. I made those 2 hills back around 1993 / 1994 and I wanted to show in this photograph, how the 2 can be combined together. If you like this type of miniature scenery, let me know in the comments and check my channel for much more. #photography #artwork

@Librarian

I just got it! A miner dropped after winning a game on Rollercoin: I was wondering if it was true. Notice that it is a very low power mining machine. It offers just 150 GH/s, which is very low. But still! It feels good to fill my rack with free drops! If you need more info, just let me know, I can send you the link to an article I wrote on the subject and to a video showing the action in the game (and to a referral link if you need one) Happy X-Mas Gaming! #games #gaming

@Librarian

More fortifications to defend Terra! The Emperor of Mankind has tasked the defenders of Terra to build fortifications to withstand the assault of Chaos forces! Those pieces of scenery show how you can combine them together to create unique features. I built those in 1994. I've used paint, glue (white glue), grass flock (sprinkled on the glue) along with wall repair plaster (to create texture on the ground). The artwork for the fortification comes from the boxed game of 3rd…

@Librarian

A simple hill, built in 1993. You can see the age. The grass on top has eroded. In the future, I might do some repairs on some pieces of miniature scenery like this one. Check my other posts for many more of such artificial scenery. I hope you enjoy and happy Christmas! #photography #artwork

@Librarian

Merry Christmas Noise.cash! I wanted to show a piece of scenery that I did around 1995. I used the Styrofoam from a toaster packaging to make this! Also I used stickers from model aircraft and even some stickers that came with GI. Joe toys. It is supposed to be a "Bunker" and/or command HQ for military forces in a futuristic setting, such as Warhammer 40k. Of course, the toaster came with the other side of Styrofoam so I have the other module, which I will upload soon. Check…

@Librarian

Happy Christmas Noise.cash! Today I am sharing a unique piece of scenery that I made around 1994. I have a lot of scenery for nature (trees, hills and rocks). I wanted to get a monument to the forces of Chaos. This one is dedicated to Khorne (see Warhammer Fantasy Battles). I used paint to represent some kind of lava / blood seeping through the structure. This is meant for a fantasy wargaming tabletop setting. The structure was built around a column of Styrofoam and I used…

@Librarian

More scenery modules are coming! I bought these around 1994 / 1995. The barrels in the middle picture are painted and have been glued onto thick cardboard. But the other modules are not painted and have not been set on their respective platforms. Right now, I just want to document all the scenery I did in the past. Then I'll move on to the armed forces (Warhammer, WH40K, Heavy Gear). More to come in the future, stay tuned! #photography #artwork

@Librarian

A small section of fortifications, inspired by Gothic Cathedrals of the year 40,000 of mankind... This is the Warhammer 40K Universe! I built this small scenery piece in 1994. Notice that one of them took some damage but it wasn't on the battlefield. A miniature can very well take cover behind the structure. #photography #artwork

@Librarian

I started building this piece of scenery in 1994. It is still incomplete. It shows what the process is to create jungle scenery. The tree is made with a metallic wire, often I use an old coat hanger. The texture for the tree is with paper that is glued with some flour and water and white glue. The rock is made with blue construction Styrofoam. The yellowish substance is wall filler (Polyfilla). Completing this piece of scenery will be a project in the future. #photography…

@Librarian

Parts have been reloaded on Rollercoin (They were sold out yesterday and now they're selling again) #games #gaming

@Librarian

Hello Noise.cash! Today I share the second bunker that I built in 1994 from the packaging of a toaster. My parents had purchased a new "small toaster-oven" and I used the Styrofoam packaging for my scenery creation. I also used parts of an old GI Joe toy along with stickers from the same toy and also stickers from airplane models. This bunker is meant as a control center / HQ and can provide a defensible position against the enemy. #photography #artwork #gaming

@Librarian

More fortifications today. I present to you, fellow Noise.cashers, a fortification that I built back in 1994. Part of this came with the boxed set edition of Warhammer 40k 3rd edition. But what I did was to glue the section of wall onto a small platform which I then covered with grass flock. I also added a spare barrel that I had left from aircraft models. I wanted miniatures to be able to hide (and shoot) from the top platform and also to take cover underneath it. I hope…
