Naloomi's Workshop Store Blog

Naloomi’s Workshop is proud to sponsor Clash For A Cure 2012. This is an event taking place in Waco, Texas to help sponsor finding a cure for Cancer. As a sponsor I am providing a code to all participants that not only give them a discount but also 10% of all sales made from this event will be donated to American Cancer Society.

In product news, I am working on creating several new modern products for the store. The first item is a Jersey Barrier (also known as a K-Rail).

This piece is 2″ long just over 1/2″ wide. It’s designed with 25/28mm games in mind. I’m also working on 15mm version of this same design.

The second piece I’m still working on is a Construction Channelizer Barrel.

Above is the prototype design. I’m still debating on trying to put a handle on it, but it may be too fragile. At it’s widest (base) it is approximately 3/8″ wide and stand 5/8″ tall. Feedback on the handle would be appreciated.

What other ‘modern’ pieces or designs would you like to see? Do you want them in other scales like 30mm or 15mm? Please let me know in the comments section.

We are offering a ‘Christmas in July’ sale for the remainder of July 2011. It’s a 25% discount with no minimum purchase. Simply use code ‘July2011′ during checkout for the discount to be applied to your order. As usual, orders $75 can make use of our free domestic shipping policy.

I have several of the Tiny Brick molds from http://www.keeblerstudios.com/. I sell casts of the Tiny Brick molds in my store, but I do not currently have any builds or kits made from them.

So I am after someone who is willing to take some free casts of the Tiny Brick pieces, make some builds, models, etc, (preferably with innards, but not required) and send them back to me. In exchange I’ll give you a couple resin copies of the finished piece, credit for the design on the store, and store credit.

If interested please contact me or reply here. Thank you.

We’ve added 5 new products from sculptor Abaroth. These products are listed under the manufacturer “Abaroth’s Creations”. You can also view them all here.

I’ve recently acquired many of the previous molds of the Hirst Arts Community Mold Project, as well as several other molds created by ZombieEngineer.

I’ll be posting pictures of the casts in the next week or two, and casts of the molds will be available on my store by the end of February.

We are a little over halfway to our #facebook fan base goal of 300. So keep suggesting us to your friends so that we can have that big sale!! In addition, several new (more than 10) ice cavern pieces and sets will be available this next week (with a goal of the initial roll out tomorrow, 9-20-2010).

New pieces include for both Ice and Rock:

• 4×6 cavern floor
• 2 Different wells
• Several different rubble piles
• T-Intersection cavern floor
• X-Intersection cavern floor

Also, after a meeting of the minds with Caveman (from the Hirst Arts forums) I’ve mostly finalized the basic small brick dungeon designs. Stay tuned for updates on these upcoming pieces!!!

We are proud to offer the first in our line of Ice Cavern accessories. Up til now we have only offered Ice Cavern terrain, but now we’ve added a Large Throne made of ice to numb your senses.

This piece will retail for $12, but for the next week is on special for $10.

Well, I’m moving into areas where I’m unsure in which direction I should continue with the ice cavern pieces.

Below is an image of the most recent sets of tests.

The 2 ‘cavern rock’ floor tiles are definitely going into the store. I would like feedback though on the 3 single floor tiles and the ice wall pieces.

Also, I’m looking for ideas on what else should be ‘iced’.  The next ‘piece’ I think I am going to ‘ice’ is a stone throne that was originally designed for the Descent board game.

Any other thoughts or ideas? Please send up some feedback!!

We are proud to offer our third set in our new Ice Cavern line. This set contains 2 corner pieces and a 2″ long wall / stair builder piece. The pieces for the stair builder will be coming later this week. Each piece of this set retails for $4, but can be purchased together as a set for $10.

We also now have our first set of Ice Floors available. This first floor piece is 4″ x 4″, has a ‘smooth’ texture, and retails for $8.50.

With the clear floor tiles you can add different color basing (I’m using 2mm royal blue Foamies) to change the type of floor that it is. Using green makes it look like slime.

Our second set of Ice Cavern floors should be available by next week.
