First, I want to thank you for hanging with me. I needed a break after I poured so much time into my local 12-week long Journeyman League, and helped coordinate a weekend chock full of events at the NOVA Open. I was tired, overwhelmed, and like with anything, too much of a good thing can ...
I’ve been taking a break from blogging, lately, as I’m sure you may have noticed. Work has been rather draining lately, and after the huge amount of work that was the NOVA and our local 12-week Journeyman league, I just needed a break.
About two weeks ago, I showed off my new Aquablight ...
So, the resounding opinion on the blue and off-white is that it’s cool, but not quite as inspiring as the Aquablight, and I agree. It wasn’t difficult to paint, and isn’t too detailed either. It wasn’t terribly *fun* to paint.
An interesting distraction, but nothing more.
So, those shredders will forever be a fun experiment, ...
About a week ago, one of the Privateer Press Insiders covered testing color schemes in cyberspace. Lane Daughtry, in her Insider, describes almost the same process that Captain Spud of Lost Hemisphere did over a year ago, using layers and settings in Photoshop to essentially make a “coloring book”.

Anyway, ...
So, I had my camera on site all weekend, but somehow I ended up with only a few pictures. The same thing happened when I went to England as a youth – I took perhaps a dozen photos for the week I was there. I suppose, like John Meyer, I like seeing the world through ...
Tectonic Craft Studios is a new terrain company which has gained momentum after a very successful Kickstarter Campaign.
TCS has sponsored a Warmachine City Table here at the NOVA, and I gotta say, it looks fantastic, and its not even painted!
These kits are incredibly detailed, and make great use of multiple ...
First, sorry for the last of posting recently. Between work, leagues, planning for the NOVA and cleaning up the house for friends being in town, there just hasn’t been room for anything of substance to be posted. I’d rather give you nothing than give you crappy posts.
I also know that the 4 of you that ...
Howdy folks, I have something a little different today: Terrain!
One of my duties as an Event Organizer for the NOVA Open is to construct terrain for the various games. All the EOs get together on the weekends and blitz terrain so that we can get all the pieces done on time. Many hands ...

Welcome to the Thursday edition of TtT.
Today, I’m going to go over my process for sculpting the ribbons onto the arms of the Cinerator/Bastions. I use a size 0, tapered point color shaper for smoothing the greenstuff, a hard tool for major shaping, and a knife for cutting away excess putty.
Tools of the ...
Last week, I covered my Cinerator into Bastion conversion. A few questions / requests were brought up – namely if a 2-handed model was possible, and a more in-depth look at sculpting the ribbons.
Today, I’ll cover the 2-handed pose I was able to make, and Thursday, I’ll have more on the sculpting.
I started with the ...
