Gluckhaus game-Pics added

Post by Donngal mac Ronain »

So for my latest project, I am taking some left over wood from my last project (made a periodish court notebook) and decided to make a gluckhaus board.

Got the first 3 coats of white on for the background and will be doing the rest tomorrow. Will post pics once done.

Figured any fighting man or sailor would have some type of game to play and why not good ole gluckhaus....

-=UPDATE=-

First pic is with the white painted and it roughly lined out in pencil

Second is pretty much finished and painted but I do have a few touchups but it is full playable now....

For the 7 which is sometimes shown as Wedding Rings, I just used my device, good two fold thing. Shows who owns it and makes for something a bit different.

And for the 2 I just put the pig there as it is called the Pig number

Please note I have like no artistic ability thus why it looks so rough but I think it is a nice addition to the kit

I'll be honest, I had to google this one. I'm glad that I did, though. This looks like a lot of fun! I think I'll have to make a simple one too!

Please let me know what you think...first try at something like this (other than it looks like my grandaughter could have drawn it :P )

It looks good. I like the cartoony pig. It's not really historical, but it's a game, so it's OK to have a little fun with it!
