I have mostly been working on a single miniature this week and while I’ve made some good progress, it wouldn’t really make for an interesting update so I thought I’d tackle a topic that I don’t talk about or show off very much on my site. I’ve had the idea of exploring this for a … Continue reading Learning From Hobby Failures
Wait! Come back! I promise this won’t be as boring as it sounds! Its true I somehow ended up working on two different projects for two different games that both involve inanimate objects. While I’m hardly one of the old masters painting a still life, I think I do have some decent work to show … Continue reading More Thoughts on Painting Inanimate Objects
Actually the whole week in terms of hobbying has been challenging this time around which is part of the reason I’m posting an article a bit later than usual. Let’s take a closer look at what has been going on. One of the big things I’ve been working on this week is this rug for … Continue reading Painting Rugs – Harder Than You’d Think
I’ve got a little bit of everything to discuss in today’s update so I’ll break things up by subject matter to make it easy to see what you’re going to be reading about. Let’s not waste any further time and get into it! MESBG – As the title suggests, I am working on my first … Continue reading Starting my first MESBG diorama
Games Workshop spoiled us with some new models and returning favorites earlier in the week and since I’m still working my way through some terrain, I thought why not share the details with you all. There are a few brand-new models coming some that tie into Rohan At War and some that do not. The … Continue reading New and Returning Minis for Rohan At War
Its been a tough week for me hobby-wise so I’ll save a more typical update for next week when I’ll have more to show. Instead, I tackled something that I’ve wanted to write about for a while. A guide for new players who want to try this awesome game. I plan on making this content … Continue reading How to Get Started in Narrative MESBG Games
I survived another annual team-building day at work and a holiday party this week and still managed to make some real inroads on my current projects. It is a long story but basically I unexpectedly have to use up paid time off work so I found myself with extra time to hobby and relax which … Continue reading More Ruffians Gather and a Goblin Town Update
It has certainly been another eventful week hobbying for me with the start of some new projects and the continuation of others. To start off with something new, I painted my first Ruffian. He needs a coat of varnish to dull down the shine but for the first one of a troop choice, I’m satisfied … Continue reading Ruffians and Thoughts on Goblin Town Terrain
This week I powered through to finish two “projects” that have been going on for a while. The first is one you already have seen but its nice to have the basing done. In my mind, I thought these were going to look a little cooler (the bases that is) than they turned out. I … Continue reading The Joy of Finished Projects
It feels like there has been a bit of lull in MESBG and the wargaming blogosphere that I follow/participate in lately so some news from GW is certainly welcome! Rohan At War is rumored to come out next month which will be exciting but to wet our appetites, Forge World has put some new models … Continue reading New Rohan Minis and Hobbit Minis Return!
