After a week where work was stable and fairly busy (so it went by fast), I now have about two weeks off work for a holiday break which is pretty exciting. I’m not traveling to see family which is a bummer but it is the safe thing to do with COVID running wild here in … Continue reading Small Victories and Headaches
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.

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
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
