• We are on our way

    We are on our way. Now then I’ve tried to be clever and I’ve held off publishing this update until we are about to board our flight to Chicago. Our day started at 02:30 (GMT) this morning so that we could be at the airport and checked in for just after 04:00 which was two hours before our flight was scheduled to leave, which is something of a joke but there have been some major delays at Manchester with them not having enough staff on security. My boss missed a flight two weeks ago because of the time it took to get through security and we didn’t want to end…

  • Are we going?

    The aim of this post is give a quick update on whether or not we have been passed fit to fly.

    This will be the last update before Adepticon so needs to have some packing and prep elements.

    I’ve been sticking with the Iyandan for this week and I’ve made some good progress on the WraithBlades and the Psychers, but I have also taken the time to get some wo l rk in progress pictures along the way. Some of these will help me if I do decide to paint up any more units in the future. If I remember to get enough I may even get around to writing a new painting guide, which is something that I haven’t don for quire some time now. As I have no idea how the different weapons work in game terms i decided to magnetise the arms so that I…

    It’s been some time since my last update, in fact I think it’s the longest break I have had from the site since I started. Over the last couple of months my mojo has just dropped off a cliff face and I haven’t even picked up a brush, let alone put paint on it and got it anywhere need a model. Can’t really say why this is but I think like a lot of people the sheer monotony of the last year has just caught up with me and I just haven’t had the motivation to do anything. It’s a selfish way to be considering a lot of people have…

    Weekly Waffle #288

    It had to happen and this week seems to be the week. Somewhat cryptic I know but this week has been the first week when I seem to have lost my mojo but I really don’t know why. The weather hasn’t been too bad, work hasn’t been overly demanding and life at home is plodding along with no major issue so I’m not sure why I haven’t had any mojo this week. I have been really fired up to get started on the Dystopian Wars stuff but every time I’ve looked at them I’ve kind of frozen. My thinking is that because I don’t have clearly defined colour scheme for…

    I’m going to start off this week with an apology for anyone who was hoping to see some Dystopian Wars minis with some paint on them. That was my plan for this week but things have taken a bit of swerve on the hobby front. I had been tidying up my workspace which doubles up as my workspace at the moment, but that resulted in me moving the Dystopian Wars box and uncovering some other prepped miniatures. That mixed in with me finally catching up on the Expanse has meant the Dystopian Wars minis haven’t been touch so I’m sorry for that but it does give you something to look…

  • Weekly Waffle #286

    It’s been something of a weird week so far and whilst I have quite a full update for you I haven’t done any painting at all. That’s not to say I haven’t managed to get in a reasonable amount of hobby time, just that none of it has involved a paint brush. But it has involved quite a lot of prep work so that I should be able to start on some painting next week. I could have broken things down a little and done less prep but got started with some painting but I just felt that it would be better in the long run if I did all…
