So I got the "clear out and organize bug" today, and decided to start clearing out my hordes of costume jewelry. Right as I was about to pitch all of it, I realized that a lot of it could really come in handy if I deconstructed items (and still save space.) So I pulled out some pliers and wire snips and went to town on it. I've made a total mess of the kitchen table, but halfway in I think I've got quite a bit of potential piled up here. I'm going to post more pics in the comments, since my phone doesn't seem to be cooperating. I'm thinking the little gold wheels could be shields if backed, and the tiny crystal gems are screaming at me to do something with them. But a lot of this stuff doesn't say much more to me than "I could absolutely use this for something!..." I'm still very new to mini painting, and I haven't tried my hand at basing at all yet, but I'm getting more and more interested in basing and terrain. Does anyone have any suggestions for putting some of this stuff to good use? I want to work on both sci-fi and fantasy themes, as well as trying something more steampunky, and any suggestions would be awesome. Thanks! And now, back to snipping. :D
