I bet that title got your attention! It has been a wild two weeks and enough has happened to nearly cause hobby whiplash so what I will try to do is explain what’s been going on in a concise manner and then share the usual hobby progress afterwards. First, I tried to paint the first … Continue reading Paint some bloody Warhammer
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
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
Rust is tricky to paint and I struggled to learn how to do it early in my painting career. It wasn’t until recently that I finally started getting satisfactory results and I wanted to share how I did it with you. If you’re looking for a way to paint rust in a realistic and convincing … Continue reading How to Paint Realistic Rust for any Wargame
First off, I have a service announcement. I have purchased the domain KuribosPainting.com and you can now access the site that way. You can still use the old address to get here but the rebranding has finally occurred thanks to WordPress offering 50% off their usual price. I think the new URL fits the spirit … Continue reading Dark Angels Primaris Captain Done
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
