Weekly Waffle #407 – The Year of the Brush: A 2025 Weekly Waffle Retrospective
Weekly Waffle #407 – The Year of the Brush: A 2025 Weekly Waffle Retrospective 10th January 2026 Welcome to 2026 and for this week’s TerminatorTids weekly waffle I am going to start the year off with a wrap up of 2025. It’s been a year of soaring highs, questionable paint choices, and a fair bit of “waffling” about everything from the price of plastic to the best way to paint a bird of prey. If 2024 was about finding the mojo, 2025 was the year I allowed it to trickle out across the pitch, the tabletop, and even the skatepark. Pull up a chair, grab a brew, and let’s dive…
Weekly Waffle #401 – Whistle Warriors
Weekly Waffle #401 – Whistle Warriors 15th November 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I have returned to the world of Blood Bowl. But this time I’ve gone for people on the pitch that everyone loves to hate. That’s right, if you’re a rugby player you will call them sir. If your football player you will call them something I’m not willing to repeat here on a Saturday morning. Which can only mean it’s time to bring out the referee. I had really enjoyed painting the halflings and I brought that sense of fun into this project. From a colour perspective I just went with the box art as my…
Weekly Waffle #400 – The Cucumber Soakers
Weekly Waffle #400 – The Cucumber Soakers 8th November 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I’ve finalised this round of sporting excellence by bringing all of the Halflings together as a team for you. It’s been a fun few week’s painting these guys up and brining you some details about the different positions within the team. But now it’s time to bring them all together for a final review. There are some more spaces in the roster that I want to fill over the coming week’s or months but it’s go spot to wrap up this stage of the project. The next bits will take the form of some Treemen…
Weekly Waffle #399 – Half Pint Titans
Weekly Waffle #399 – Half Pint Titans 1st November 2025 This week’s weekly waffle brings the final position in the core of the Halfling team. And you can argue that these are the glory hounds of the team in the form of the catchers. Getting themselves in a position to be the hero and win the day. As I’ve been touching on in the previous updates there have been a few things that I have done differently when painting these guys. One of them was using thinned down contrast paints as filters to change the tone of the colour below them. Or at least my limited knowledge is a filter.…
Weekly Waffle #398 – Up for fight
Weekly Waffle #398 – Up for fight 25th October 2025 This week’s weekly waffle sees the Blood Bowl project continue but this time I’m bringing you the Hefty’s. For anyone who has any interest in rugby I’m imagining my Hefty’s essentially being flankers. Only interested in the fight and not really that bothered about anything else taking place on the pitch. I touched on some of this last week but I used all sorts of different paints and techniques on these guys. One thing that I think has worked really well and is really basic was in the basing. I normally paint the bases up separately and then add the…
Weekly Waffle #397 – Blood Bowl’s Unsung Heroes
Weekly Waffle #397 – Blood Bowl’s Unsung Heroes 18th October 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I am absolutely going to blame Pete for the change in direction. He was the one who put the seed of a new project in my head. And having no will power to resist I crumbled and through myself whole heartedly into something new. Although I could possibly say that because it’s still on the sporting side of things i’t not a complete change in direction. But even I have to say that is one of the weakest excuses I have ever tried to sell to you guys. I just can’t resist something new…
Weekly Waffle # 387 – Retrospective Rides
Weekly Waffle # 387 – Retrospective Rides 26th July 2025 For this week’s Weekly Waffle I have spent some time tidying up some previous builds. Not the most interesting of things to do but it’s something that needed doing. It’s also a reminder that in most instances a miniature is never actually finished. You can always come back to it at some point in the future if you want. Granted that most of us never will, even when we may have had that intention at the time of painting. In this case I always knew I needed to revisit these because I hadn’t actually finished them. But it is something…
Weekly Waffle # 386 – The Full Cowabunga
Weekly Waffle # 386 – The Full Cowabunga 19th July 2025 For this week’s Weekly Waffle I have finally got round to finishing my long term Ork project. Or should that just be it’s taken me a long term to complete my Ork project. After all it’s not like I’ve painted up a full six thousand point from scratch. In fact at the rate I’m currently painting I wouldn’t be finished before the heat death of the universe. But it is finished so I’m going to share it with you, and I also have a small update on the paintRack app that talked about last week. In fact I’m going…
Weekly Waffle # 385 – Last Boy
Weekly Waffle # 385 – Last Boy 12th July 2025 For this week’s Weekly Waffle I have a combination of technical waffle and hobby update. There was no update last week because I had a week off work with the wife and spent the time relaxing. A mix of sunny and rainy days so we made the most of the sunny days with day trips. And the relaxed with a couple of box sets on the rainy days. All very nice and helped to recharge the batteries a little. Then it was back in to manic week at work. I do have some hobby updates for you a little later…
Weekly Waffle # 384 – Steezy
Weekly Waffle # 384 – Steezy 28th June 2025 For this week’s Weekly Waffle my hobby update is basically going to be a variation on last week. Still really busy at work so limited hobby time during the week. Although I do have a week off planned for the first week in July. Me and the wife are going to do some serious relaxing. Not sure if I will get any hobby time in but there won’t be a Weekly Waffle next week. All back to me not doing updates when I have time off with the wife. You’ve got to get your priorities right. So before I get onto…
