    Weekly Waffle #235

    It’s been an interesting week this week and I can say that for this weeks weekly waffle at least the mojo seems to have returned. But before I get onto that I’m going to start with a gaming update as that was how I rounded off the end of las week. We had a really good D&D session on Sunday were we all seemed to be back on track with a nice clear or not to murky goal along with nice simple time line. We managed some a couple of days of uneventful travel before reaching our first objective so things were looking good. But we should have known that…

    Gamming for this weeks weekly waffle has been limited to a bit of disrupted but very enjoyable D&D session. No one got killed, a first for us in quite a while, we made a bit of money, spent a bit of money and have now set our path firmly on a new quest that will probably see our DM do all she can to kill us. So whilst we did allow ourselves to become a little bit distracted whilst some members of the part were doing their own little things in town in the end we have ended up back focused on a common mission. We even have something of…

    Well it’s been a good hobby week this week, I’ve had lots of travel for work but what hobby I have had has been really good which has given me lots to share in this weeks weekly waffle Plus, there’s more to follow before the weekend is over. Game night was the first time I’ve been along in while and what a good night it was. First of all it was really nice and cool in the cellar so it was an escape from this heat wave we have here at the moment. Now I know some places are much hotter then here year round but for some of us…

    Things have calmed down a bit this week and I’ve had what I think is quite a good hobby week which I hope in turn give you a good weekly waffle. Although when it came to actually writing up what I’d been up to my fingers have not been dancing over the keyboard. It’s been like typing on a keyboard covered in molasses but the brush has flowed a little easier. I’ve been concentrating on the Warlord Titan with the legs now on the base and I think they are looking ok. They still need the weathering and they will also end up with a mat finish for most of…

    I’ve only got a token update for you this weeks weekly waffle as my mum hasn’t been to well so I’ve not had any hobby time for most of the week. Now the week did start quite well and I was back working on the Titan. I have to say that I think I had blanked out just how much work there is just in painting the armour trim. Or at least there is the way I do it. To get to this stage I’ve had to add base colour of copper which actually takes a couple of coats as it is going over the top of turquoise main colour.…

    Weekly Waffle #230

    I’m going to start this weekly waffle with a tale of woe that I’m also letting double up as the reason I haven’t done as much work as I should. So what is the catastrophe that has befallen me this week. Well it’s one you will all be familiarly with if you been doing the hobby for length of time and that is not paying attention whilst wielding a craft knife. Now just to put this into perspective the only thing that has really be hurt is my pride at being such a buffoon. Simply put whilst trimming up some bases I’ve got bit carried away and put what I…

    In this weeks weekly waffle I became a dragon. It’s not often you get to open a post with something like that so I’m not going to pass up on the opportunity. There is a story behind it and I’ll cover it in a bit more detail when with an update on this week’s adventures in D&D land. As well as soring like a dragon I’ve also got a bit of my mojo back this week and that has been linked to the same adventure so all in all whilst it hasn’t been a particularly productive week it has been a fun one. Last Saturday saw me drop my mum…

  • Weekly Waffle #228

    Ok I’m making it official, I’ve lost my mojo and it’s impacting more that just the weekly waffle. I just don’t know where it is has gone at the moment. I’ve probably spent more time staring blankly at projects this week than I have with brush in hand. I’ve not lost my love for the hobby or anything like that I just can’t seem to get that desire to paint to make it as far as actually moving my paint brush. I can’t think of anything in particular that is acting as a blocker it’s like you are walking up a really steep hill and you just can’t seem to…

  • Weekly Waffle #227

    I’m going to start this weeks weekly waffle with an apology for not bringing you an update last week. I’d like to say that it was I involved in some secret invitation only special event but the reality is that life just go in the way. I’d been busy at work, spending a bit more time at the gym and I had to do quite a bit of travel for work so I simply didn’t get round to doing and anything. And I didn’t get home until late on Friday night and just didn’t have anything to right about so I ended up just missing the update. Now I was…

  • Weekly Waffle #226

    Well it’s been something of a weird one this week for this weeks weekly waffle. I’m going to start off with the good news that everyone survived our D&D session on Sunday, just. It was essentially part of a battle with an end of level boss and we milked it for all it was worth. Or more accurately we got so much wrong it took forever to finish it. Although there were some very cinematic moments and it literally came to the last blow of the night. As we left things at the end of the last session our arch enemy Malick the necromancer had escaped our grasp and left…
