I’ve just finished what was quite of an unusual painting
job. A friend from the gaming group just came back from Essen with a game
called Tzolk’in (Feel free to check his Blog, lots of interesting posts about
Board games and some in depth reviews). The board is quite stunning and comes
with unpainted wheels/cogs superbly detailed with Mayan art. Being quite
interested in the game itself I offered to do a quick job on this cogs. The
main large one is quite beautiful with amazing details. I had sort of “carte
blanche” for the painting so I went for a darker grey with a quick weathered
effect. The board is looking very inviting and I’m looking forward to playing
this one.
If you’re a Board gamer with little painting skills, feel free to
contact me if you’d like the recipe for this.
Je viens juste de
terminer un boulot un peu différent du reste. Un ami de mon groupe de jeu est
revenu d’Essen avec un jeu qui s’appelle Tzolk’in (n’hésitez pas à aller jeter
un œil à son Blog, beaucoup de revues de jeux de plateau). Le jeu a l’air
vraiment superbe et est vendu avec des roues en plastic non-peintes sculptées
de style Mayen. Etant très intéressé par le jeu, j’ai offert de les peindre. La
grosse roue centrale est vraiment magnifique. J’avais carte blanche pour la
peinture donc je suis parti sur un gris foncé avec un effet de pierre usée. Je
dois dire que le plateau fait très envie maintenant et que je suis impatient d’essayer
le jeu.
Si vous êtes un joueur avec peu de connaissance en peinture, n’hésitez
pas à me contacter pour la recette !

OMG paul, you leave 20mns away from Essen and you didn't go! Yep, the game will auto-destruct I beleive^^.
ReplyDeleteVery strange but well painted items Dr!
ReplyDeleteStéphane - what a fantastic result with Tzolk'in! It's what the game should always have looked like, great job! Publish it on BGG and the phone won't stop ringing for orders...!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of 'orders': I was wondering how much time did you spend on such an amazing work? Do you do orders? (I'm based in France :)).
ReplyDeleteSalut Guillaume! I've been painted a fair few already as commissioned work. If you're interested feel free to contact me at for more details:
