Progress on the diorama continues but not as fast or smoothly I would like. I managed to get the base sculpted, sanded, and ready for the next steps which is to be frank, one of the less exciting parts of the process so that’s good. I’ve also been chipping away at the remaining minis that … Continue reading MESBG – Hobbit-sized sculpts can cause headaches
Its a special double-stuffed update this week as I’ve had two weeks of painting saved up. It was kind of hard to pick a title since I worked on two different projects. Let’s start with Hellboy though and say our farewell to the frogs. I finished the last four frogs in the box. I tried … Continue reading Hellboy – The Frogs’ Last Croak
With Eomer done, I was looking for something to paint that was a “quick win” as people like to say in the business world. I wanted to paint more frogs for Hellboy but I didn’t have the paint I needed, so instead I chose to paint my second and final Protectron from the Protectron and … Continue reading Fallout: Double Protectron
I was able to finish up the Eomer display project and I’m very happy to be sharing the results. I think it is one of my best minis yet and it came together in less than a month’s time which is pretty darn good for a display piece. I have more to say about the … Continue reading MESBG – Eomer – Rohan’s Guardian
I was really close to getting Eomer done last weekend but ultimately was slowed down by needing one paint to finish him and having to order it online. I figured it would be better to just wait and show the finished mini instead of one that is 95% done so I pushed back this update … Continue reading MESBG – Eomer Mini Finished
It has certainly been nice to have a week off work and while the week has not gone the way I would have planned it, I did enjoy doing a bit of gaming and painting. I continued work on Eomer for my LOTR display project and I’m really happy with how he is looking. I’m … Continue reading Middle Earth SBG – Muster the Rohirrim!
Another week, another Fallout-based pun. Fortunately, I have regained hobby momentum this week and so I have more to share than in the last couple of weeks. I had some time to fill so I started another Fallout mini. For whatever reason, its hard to find decent pictures of Assaultrons in Fallout 4. I could … Continue reading Fallout – Assaultron and Battery
I wanted to start off by sharing the “final” photos of my Hobbit diorama and a few thoughts on making my first diorama too. I say “final” because one day I’m sure I will upgrade my camera because the one I have is approaching being ten years old and it does struggle a bit with … Continue reading The Master’s Favorite Holiday – Tax Day Diorama
Well to say that it has been an interesting week in the United States would be an understatement. I went to bed Tuesday night reluctantly and with a lot of concern and have been feeling better and better about election news as time has gone on. Hopefully the chaos, bad behavior, and poor leadership in … Continue reading The Master of Laketown and Diorama are nearly done
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
