• Bottling Inspiration

    I come up with ideas all the time for new and fanciful projects, be it colour schemes for models or some weird and wonderful scratch build or conversion. But if I don’t do anything about it by the time I get round to doing anything all I can remember is that I had a really good idea, but I’ve no idea what it was. So to aid a failing memory I have a couple of suggestions. My way of bottling inspiration First up there is the old school option and that is to write them down on a piece of paper or better yet in a note book, as and…

    The Road to AdeptiCon #1

  • Weekly Waffle #17

    Well after the turmoil and carnage that has been the last few weeks for me, this weeks weekly waffle has seen a welcome return to what passes for normality. No crises, catastrophes or disasters, just a run of the mill normal week. On the hobby front I’ve managed to finish off my Dystopian Wars Russian Coalition Arial Battle Group. Finishing these off has also got me looking as some different options what it comes to list building. As a Russian player my go to option seems to always be the ‘Gunship’.
