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 ...
When the 2-player starter hit shelves, I immediately purchased one, as it was the best way for me to supplement my Khador ‘jacks, and get my hands on the new plastic Man-O-Wars. It also began my Menoth collection.

A while ago I touched on taking models and painting materials on a vacation. Recently, I flew to visit my parents, and took my Cryx Battlebox with me to paint when I had some free time. Since I wouldn’t be able to borrow brushes or paint (since my parents don’t have ...
I thought I’d covered this topic before, but when it was suggested and I couldn’t find the article, I realized I hadn’t covered it. So, I’m here to change that!
Managing ExpectationsIf you’re speedpainting, you need to take a hard look at your expectations for the results of your time spent. Since ...
Working up a new paint scheme for an army is nearly as hard as picking a character for your D&D campaign. It’s something you’ll be stuck with for a long time, and it’ll be the most iconic and easily recognizable thing about you. For instance, when I think of some of the local ...
Ah, the eternal problem. All too often I hear people gripe about not getting “permission” to go to the game store, or needing a “kitchen pass” in order to come to a tournament. Being able to balance your hobby time and family (or non-gaming friends) time is not hard, and boils down to ...
I recently got interested in Trenchers (which has sparked some good discussion on Lost Hemisphere Radio about under used units), and one of the very necessary parts of a Trencher unit is the UA, the Officer and Sniper. I found these models on Bartertown, and being used models, they needed some work. ...
A few weeks ago, I finally had a chance to play a pair of games of Malifaux with a local, Carl. he showed me the ropes, and I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed the game!
Today, I’m going to compare / contrast it with Warmachine, as well as share the basics ...
