Due to popular demand (1 person asked on the off-chance), here's a little more detail about the infamous, nay legendary, Boydell workshop aka 'shed':
Shot 1 - From the outside:
You may notice that, in the background, I've mowed the lawn!
Shot 2 - The 'Desk' where it all happens!
Note the 'works in progress' on the drawing board, the 'supply' of classic games for inspiration on the corner shelves, the Bolland print on the wall etc
Shot 3 - Paperclip Railways 'in readiness'
44,000 32mm paperclips in 6 colours. Still awaiting the 'wooden cubes' - these are coming from the Czech Republic (due mid-May). Luckily, the printer for the station cards and rule book is 5 minutes down the road from my house!
Shot 4 - A closer look at the corner shelves
Shot 5 - The deflated inflatable Dalek stands guard...
..over my rare 'The Shadow' Will Eisner print and the precious notebooks.
Shot 6 - Underneath the Dalek
Components, giant Totemo blocks (from our Essen stand 2010) and various books with artwork, themes and other graphics to be an inspiration. Here are books about Celtic knot-work that informed by Tara, Seat of Kings box-art, robot pictures that lead to the 'background' of the Fzzzt! cards (the 'factory'), guidebooks to the Snowdon Mountain Railway etc
Shot 7 - The Long Shot
...incorporating the missus' bike!
So, there you go - the first in a series of intimate peeks into my world. Next up: Tony's Pants (or 'How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love Hand Management')
