Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been swept up in the holiday rush. But the brush keeps moving. As the decals set, my operatives move about their secret war. Nearly complete and ready for campaign exercises!
I'll have tutorial up on them soon!

The escalation continues! Yesterday had the band together for some Kill Team. This time around the goal was to learn the rules. I've been doing my Homework and Braeden has some experience so we jumped in. Two objectives in the middle and a 5x...

I am returned from the summit known as Vinceycon. From this concentrated time of fruendship and creativity I am left with many thoughts. Enjoy this motivational video!

The preparations continue! After returning from Vinceycon, more on that soon, I put some time into finishing the assembly stage of my Kill Team. Loaded for bear, it's almost time to rumble in the urban jungle.

When this goes live I'll be airborne, heading to the gathering known as Vinceycon!
What began as a paint jam has progressed to a yearly meet up at Vince's in December. We always have a theme in mind, in the past creating pieces that all belong to...
A small warrior who stands mighty tall in legend! I had to try my hand at painting one of these small scale marines and here is the result. Very fun :)

What casts a long shadow can stand very tall, only in legend today. Behold, the Tinyman! Painting a model at this scale is an appreciable challenge and here I'm applying some recent approaches to render this small warrior in epic resolution. Enjoy!

Lining up my entry for this year's Worthy painting competition, here comes Rhino!
From what I know about comic books and was able to glean from some images of Rhino, the fighting happens in the street. So it was the old plaster and hammer to kick off this urban battlezone.

Welcome to the War Journal! With this blog series I'll be sharing my progress with the game Kill Team. I'm be getting together with my group next month to learn the ropes. But before entering the fray in full, bloody campaign mode, I need to get a headstart on my faction.

I am he, caller of storms!
Had a good time chasing something a little different on the weapon and gems. With this and my combat patrol, I might have an army started :)
The stirring of thunder gives way the arrival of an long sleeping foe. This time we're having a look at the past and present. Previously, I created a recipe for a Necron Combat patrol, sacrificing a little quality for efficiency. With the upcoming release of the Necron codex I've been given a chance to take my previous recipe and bring it up to ...

Pictures large and small can be worth many words they say, I've heard estimates that a single photo can be worth as many as 1,000 words. I present here two images.
What would you do with a single tiny space marine? I think it's my duty to paint one of these tinymen to it's greatest potential! I think this offers a fun approach to the norm ...

Greetings, traveler! This is your invitation to join in on this month's Scrying Pool. We'll begin at 12:10pm Central on Saturday. That may seem like an odd time but it is to avoid the tornado siren that gets tested every Saturday at noon. See you there!
If you're not familiar, please check out the Scrying Pool section on Discord and submi...
Recently I recieved a starter set of this game from GW. I don't think I'll play the game any time soon but I do like the models and it gives a different view, a battle on a much larger scale than we usually see.
I also tried my hand a creating my own maniac-machine in the form of the W.A.R.H.E.A.D. MK1 which came out pretty well I'd say. ...
Kickin' up dust and blasting a hole through and obstacle. This one is about momentum, negative space, and a snappy color combination. Enjoy!

From Warpaints Fanatic, Great Hall Grey, Ice Yellow, Molten Lava, Deep Grey, Daemonic Yellow, Black, and White.

I know, right? It's over already? Sort of.
We've been enjoying the campaign but this has been a learning experince in a lot of ways. We became bored with our armies, I've played many games with the rotmire creed but only 6 in campaign. Starting a fresh warband is the way, I think. But this also brought together a gaming group. Josh, ...

In the old world, it was told that a twin tailed comet fell to earth, heralding the arrival of their god, Sigmar. Believing themselves spared by the falling comet, well, a piece of it, landing near but not on their fair city, the odd stone is taken as a blessing and seen as a significant part of their religion. Thieves and those seeking a gander...

It's almost time for the crowning ingerdient. A tiny light inside the watchman's coop.
I'll be getting to work on the base soon but want to be sharing more updates here. mostly talking with the pictures. Enjoy!

Recently I've been playing more games and it has me thinking about scenery. Last week, I drove to the big hardware store for the materials to make a 40K table but was unsatisfied. I'll get back to the table making but pair that energy with some recent Cities of Sigmar models I've been working on and well...I've created this small scene :)

Featuring that red scamp, Angron. In this video I'm breaking down my approach to creating a blend with diluted layers. There are many techniques that can feed together to quicken this process, but here I wanted to show that approach by itself. Enjoy!

And eyes and teeth as well. Come, Wizard, scry this vid-tome of demonic knowledge and be transformed.
This was a large step, the model is packed with detail and it all needs to be done well, it's for the Golden Demon no less. But it takes what it takes, a large model like this can be done. I am eager to full assemble it though, I'll have...
Last year I was feeling green, so I painted up Throgg (on the right) in the scheme that I used long ago when these models were new. Just a young grot back in the 90's. Then, after the joy of conjuring that magic, I started digging through my old collection and scoping out E-Bay. Full on retro fever was under way B)
Present day it's that t...
Take caution all ye who wander the boggy shores. This time we're finishing off Bloody Barnabus and breaking down the backdrop.
This also completes my entry for the P3 Grandmaster contest coming up at Adepticon. Gotta plan ahead if you want to enter four painting competitions!

I suppose you could interpret that in a couple ways. But here I'm working on a relic of the pewter days, an older Privateer Press Warlock from the game Hordes. I'll be tying this one tight with harmonious swamp tones and talk a bit o' gator.
Next up we'll see that backdrop!

Another addition to my growing pile of bugs and slime, the mighty Norn Emissary! This one went quickly, well, from assembly to finish was four days but I had other things to do as well. My tabletop army is intended to be done quickly, not every model can get the full attention when there are so many, but a centerpiece like this gives room and ca...
