Painting, Terrain, Dioramas, and Battle Reports Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game and Fallout
Well, as the title suggests, real life concerns will be discussed today along with more painting progress. I was kind of hoping to be further along with the Primaris marine at this point but this week was stressful and exhausting at work and in real life, unfortunately. I keep telling myself, I’ve got one more … Continue reading Another Dark Angels Update and How the USPS is Ruining my Hobby
My week has been consumed by painting one thing, the Dark Angels Primaris Lieutenant that I teased last week. Before I get into that and talking about the “rivalry” between Warhammer 40,000 and Lord of the Rings, I wanted to mention a pleasant surprise I had. I shared the Fallout stuff I painted last week … Continue reading A Dark Angels Update and Thoughts on Painting 40k
While I’m still not completely caught up on what everyone has been up to over the past month, I’m doing the best I can and have been enjoying hobbying for the most part this week. It has been a welcome refuge from a truly crazy work week too. I did get the Scibor Dwarf up … Continue reading Plenty of Fallout Progress
Hello everyone, my apologies for the absence. It was an unexpected and unwanted sabbatical unfortunately. Almost a month ago, the electricity went out in my apartment and apparently it knocked out the motherboard in my computer too. In a further twist of bad luck, Chicago was hit with rioting like many other cities in the … Continue reading Scibor Project Finished and 40k Started
I had intended to discuss my experience with Scibor in my previous post but found it was easier to make the topic of its own post. This week, I have the time and space to really delve into it so let’s talk about my experience painting them and look at some past projects and what … Continue reading In Pursuit of Scibor Dwarven Glory
I can’t explain it but I do really love painting minis in the fantasy genre. I don’t necessarily read tons of fantasy books but if you give me a high quality sculpt of an elf or dwarf, I’ll probably enjoy painting it more often than not. Today’s post is unusual because I have two things … Continue reading The Joys of Painting Fantasy Minis
It sounds like the start of an exciting battle report but I have plenty of finished work to show off instead. No more hobby navel gazing from me for a while as well. I appreciate all of the support and advice you all have shared in the last couple months as I’ve been charting a … Continue reading Super Mutants, Survivors, and a Campsite
I’m going to break my “rules” and show an actual WIP this week. As I think I’ve mentioned before, I need to stop varnishing one or two figures a week as it isn’t efficient. I like showing you only finished work but I hope that seeing minis twice isn’t too much of a bother. In … Continue reading Codsworth and Some Serious MESBG Musings
As promised a while back, I do have some MESBG content to share for the first time in a little while. I realized recently that I only had a couple of ruffians left to paint before I hit the magic number of 12 which is what you need for most Scouring of the Shire scenarios … Continue reading Saruman’s Dirty Dozen
In a bid to cover up the fact that I only have a single model that I’ve worked on this week and it isn’t quite done yet, I thought I’d share a bit more of my hobby history as well as share some things that helped me become a better painter along the way. Since … Continue reading My Painting/Gaming Journey Thus Far
