Weekly Waffle #403 – Cutting to the Core of the Morticians
Weekly Waffle #403 – Cutting to the Core of the Morticians 29th November 2025 For this week’s Weekly Waffle I have stayed on the playing fields with more Guild Ball Mortician action for you. I’ve used the same scheme as last week and I’m beginning to settle into a bit of flow. The challenge I’m finding now is in which bits I decide to pick out in purple. I don’t want to do too much as it’s only really intended to be an accent. But at the same time it needs to make sense to the overall flow of the miniature. For Scalpel here it worked nicely to just use…
Weekly Waffle #402 – Two Players, One Creepy Show
Weekly Waffle #402 – Two Players, One Creepy Show 22nd November 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I have once again switch codes and move back to Guild Ball. I was inspired by painting up the older version of Obulus so went ahead and picked up some of the current Morticians miniatures. There are currently two boxes available and I decided to start with ’Strings of the Spirit Weaver’. Just because it had characters in it that I hadn’t previously painted. But don’t worry the new version of Obulus will make a return in a future update. I’ve tweaked the colour scheme a little but it’s still essentially what I…
Weekly Waffle #396 – Masters of the Sky
Weekly Waffle #396 – Masters of the Sky 11th October 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I’m having a mini retrospective, along with a little bit of a ponder. The retrospective is going to take the form a review of the Falconers team as a whole. Their play style and how they fit into the wider Guild Ball story and I’m also going to touch a little on shiny syndrome and how it can mess with your well laid painting plans. On the shiny, shiny front I have been distracted from my renewed Guild Ball progress with two new but very different shiny things. The first has been be on…
Weekly Waffle #395 – The Morticians’ Master of Strings
Weekly Waffle #395 – The Morticians’ Master of Strings 4th October 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I have continued with the Guild Ball theme, because I’m really enjoying painting them at the moment. But I have been looking to the future with a miniature from the past. That all sounds very fluffy but what I have done is taken some inspiration from both Studio Jolly Roger and Scar Hand Painting to come up with new look for a Morticians team. I have an old metal mini for Obulus and wanted to take inspiration from these teams to paint something different. The real aim was to give you something that…
Weekly Waffle #394 – Winged Terror of the Pitch
Weekly Waffle #394 – Winged Terror of the Pitch 27th September 2025 This week’s weekly waffle sees me back to the normal Saturday schedule and I’m picking up where I left off. With more Guild Ball. The mojo is high at the moment and that is making it really fun to both paint and to come up with these background pieces as well. I’ve been working on Frelsi with the idea being to use the same colours as I’ve used for the team. Or more accurately make it look like the team colours are based on Frelsi. It’s not the best rendition of feathers you will ever see but I’m…
Weekly Waffle #393 – The Falconer Who Sees Too Much
Weekly Waffle #393 – The Falconer Who Sees Too Much 6th September 2025 I’ve been continuing my Guild Ball odyssey for this week’s weekly waffle. Although in terms of the colour palette things have changed a little this week. Gone is the turquoise and in is more a linen buff colour. I’m not sure why things have changed. Or what I really mean by that is I’m not sure why the art work I have been using as a guide changed things up for Minerva. I did think about going with turquoise, because I like it and I feel I have a good grasp on painting it. At least in…

Weekly Waffle # 389 – Block Perch
Weekly Waffle # 389 – Block Perch 9th August 2025 This week for the Weekly Waffle I have a couple of updates for you. One I have pictures for and the other is all about the pictures that I already have on the site. So it’s been a busy week even if there isn’t a lot to show for it in terms of this update. So I’m going to start off with the work I’ve been doing in the background. When I switched hosting providers last year I started to put more effort into making the posts easier to find on the internet. The art of Search Engine Optimisation, or…
