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
Has it really been six months since I last did one of these? I certainly missed writing them as I find battle reports to be one of the most gratifying parts of the hobby. It is where you see all your hard hobby work come together. For this report, I’m playing Maggot’s Farm from the … Continue reading Maggot’s Farm MESBG Battle Report
It took a lot longer than I hoped but I finally have what I need to play a new scenario in MESBG. Unfortunately, I ran into more warping issues with the previously completed version of Maggot’s crop so I ended up pitching it. Instead, I got some crops from my favorite MDF supplier, Charlie Foxtrot … Continue reading Farmer Maggot’s Crops Done (For Real This Time)
I know a while back I floated the idea of doing some painting guides on the site as a way to make the content available more unique and valuable to others and while I haven’t gotten around to doing it yet, I do have a guide to share with you. I’ve been hard at work … Continue reading How to Make Hedge Terrain for MESBG/LOTRSBG
I have quite a bit on my mind so this post might be a longer one than usual. Obviously, the world is kind of falling apart at the moment (or certainly the United States is) and while I’ve seen many people celebrating the extra hobby time (which I have been enjoying as well), it is … Continue reading Trees for Scouring of the Shire
As the title suggests, I have been hard at work at Shire terrain this week and I have a little bit to show off. I am working on getting trees ready for the Maggot’s Farm scenario and while the first one has not gone quite according to plan, I think it looks reasonably good now. … Continue reading A Worm Among Shire Terrain
It has certainly been an interesting week hobby-wise. I have been dragging my feet the last week or two and wasn’t enjoying painting as much as I usually do. Work and life was slowing me down (and making more tired than I have been in quite some time) but I realized the biggest problem was … Continue reading Sharkey’s Slow Growing Horde
While I mostly focused this week on painting another Ruffian and making progress on Theoden’s sword, I only want to show off my first finished Shire terrain piece because I’m fairly happy with how it turned out and of the photos I recently took. I didn’t do a ton of work on Maggot’s crops since … Continue reading Maggot’s Crop Done and Dusted
I have a quick update this week and something that is fairly unusual, an actual WIP instead of something that is finished! My order arrived from Poland and what is was it, you ask? It is none other than a scarecrow set which you need for Farmer Maggot’s scenario! I got it from Hexy (though … Continue reading Into Farmer Maggot’s Crop
I feel like I’ve been saying it often lately (because it is unfortunately true) but this has been another stressful week for me so to relax, I mostly focused on painting stuff for gaming purposes. I also am still waiting on my much-needed item from Poland so no chance to get terrain done this week … Continue reading A Brief Return to the Shire
