Its been quite a week. A couple of hours after I posted my last article, I went to the ER because I was in severe abdominal pain. Having never gone to the ER, that was an experience in and of itself. Long story short, the scans came out clean and so they sent me home … Continue reading Warhammer AoS – Fully Assembled!
Alright, the title might be a bit misleading but it was the best pun I could come up with. There were quite a lot of headaches this week as I continue this long-running project. The first thing I should mention is that I broke a piece while trying to put the quiver together that couldn’t … Continue reading Warhammer AoS – Aquiver with Excitement
Its been a while since my last update on this mini and that is because I was working on less exciting parts and they took longer than expected to get done. The good news is that despite some challenges, the Knight-Judicator is really starting to come together now. I basically have the bow and hands … Continue reading Warhammer AoS – The Shape of Stormcast Punk to Come
I have an update that is painting centered this week but hopefully it will be interesting even if you aren’t terribly interested in the finer details of display painting. We’ll start with the Knight-Judicator which is slowly but surely coming together. This week I tried two new things that I’d like to discuss briefly. Before … Continue reading Warhammer AoS – Learning New Tricks
Its not a flashy title but it is the truth. I spent a lot of this week working on refining and smoothing out all of the gold surfaces on the Knight-Judicator. I’m pretty happy with how it looks other than the circle above his left breastplate. I will revisit that and try to smooth it … Continue reading Warhammer AoS – Modest Progress
Normally, my strategy when writing an article is to lead with pictures and then if I have anything wordy to say, bury it at the bottom so you can choose to read or skip it, if you want. Today, I’m going to do the opposite because I think it will give some context to what … Continue reading Warhammer AoS – A Storm(cast) is coming!
Let’s start with some good news this week and then we can discuss the not so good. Hellboy is finally done. It didn’t take as long as a typical display piece does but three weeks on a single miniature is still plenty of time and I have to admit that I’m looking forward to painting … Continue reading Wild Hunt Hellboy is Done
This week’s update is action-packed with triumphs, humiliations, and lots of pictures. First up, I have made a fair amount of progress on Hellboy this week. I think it might be useful for me to do a side-by-side comparison image of last week to this week. Here is what the front of the mini from … Continue reading More Hellboy, New Acquisitions, and a Miserable Room Tour
This past week, I hit a brick wall on the Witch King miniature I’ve been working on for this year’s Golden Demon. As a result, I am no longer going to work on the project with an eye towards entering it in a painting competition. I will explain why and some lessons I’ve learned along … Continue reading Making and Learning From Competition Painting Mistakes
I wasn’t sure if I’d have enough painting progress to show off for another update this year but I’ve just about managed. There is a lot of other stuff I want to discuss too so strap in for one last, meaty update in 2022. The main attraction is the Golden Demon project so here’s a … Continue reading MESBG – A Foul Steed
