Painting Update: Finished the Wizard, Glueing and Repriming the Dropship

I feel like I’m Sisyphus with these models, Dear Readers. I’m constantly working on them but I don’t seem to be getting any closer. Until today. Today, I have finally finished the Elven Wizard. And I will have finished gluing and priming the dropship. Here’s how it went down: I really ended up finishing theContinue reading “Painting Update: Finished the Wizard, Glueing and Repriming the Dropship”

A DM’s Perspective

Brandon, my regular author for “A Player’s Perspective” is currently away on a business trip until August or so. Therefore, I will be doing “A DM’s Perspective” which is a game summary. That said, I will still be doing “A Player’s Perspective” articles for when we play “Kids on Bicycles.” After the incident with theContinue reading “A DM’s Perspective”

Product Review: HeroQuest Remastered

Dear Readers, you cannot imagine how ridiculously excited I am to do this post. Like…seriously. *whew* Big breath… Let me tell you a little story… So there I was, heading home from running an errand when I saw a Gamestop that a friend works for.

Painting Update: Elven Wizard

Here we are again, Dear Readers, with another painting update!

WithContinue reading “Painting Update: Elven Wizard”

A Short DM Story

So the Ingrates were back in Borest. They discover that a creature called a Nilbog was the actual goblin leader that they hadn’t met back in the days where they originally came to Borest.

A Player’s Perspective: Kids on Bicycles – Episode 4

Dear Readers, I know this one is a long time coming, but since we are resuming KoB this coming week, I figured you would like a catch-up to the goings-on of The Gang.

Painting Update: Some More Mech Action

Dear Readers, it’s been an extremely busy week, but I did get some painting done. Here’s some pictures of what I have gotten accomplished: Yes, the Vulture is still a work in progress, but he’s a print and I had to re-glue on one arm. As it is, I’m just happy to get some paintContinue reading “Painting Update: Some More Mech Action”

Quick Paining Update: I GOT TO PAINT!!

Dear Readers, this won’t be a “normal” painting update, as I did not take incremental pictures of this guy.

I mean,Continue reading “Quick Paining Update: I GOT TO PAINT!!”

A Player’s Perspective: Kids on Bicycles Episode 2

When we last left the gang, they found themselves underneath the burned out ruins of Dr. Ford’s old home, in a room filled with purple crystals, and a large spinning contraption, all hooked to a table. Upon further investigation the gang found that the machinery was upwards of 60+ years old, dating back to theContinue reading “A Player’s Perspective: Kids on Bicycles Episode 2”

Painting Update: Female Goliath Barbarian

Dear Readers, I’ve made some good progress on this miniature this week. Here’s how she looks: I ended up using Wraith Black for her hair, which didn’t turn out quite as dark as I had hoped.

Let’s Talk Battletech: My (current) Miniature Painting Obsession

Dear Readers, I have developed, as the title suggests, an obsession with painting my new pewter Battletech miniatures. Like, I have almost totally abandoned my Dungeons & Dragons miniatures in favor of painting my Battletech ones. And I couldn’t be more excited about it. As my main shipment of Battletech miniatures should be on theContinue reading “Let’s Talk Battletech: My (current) Miniature Painting Obsession”
