Weekly Waffle #307
Weekly Waffle #307 14th January 2023 As promised I’m back for another week, although considering it is only the second week of the year so it’s not that much of an achievement. I’ve spent quite a bit of time away from home this week so haven’t had a lot of hobby time but I’ve tried to put my time to good use. With the Alliance fleet progressing at a steady pace I’ve been thinking about how to go about painting the Hunt for Prometheus box set which has been sitting I’m my pile of shame for some time. For the Enhanced I’m thinking of going with a pale blue for…
Dystopian Wars – Republique of France – Painting Guide
This has been the project that has caused me the most consternation ever. I have liked the Dystopian Wars models for the Republique of France since I first saw them; in fact I think they are some of the best models in the entire game.

Weekly Waffle #130
It’s been a bit of mixed up week this week for the weekly waffle and I’ve put the white dwarf to one side and instead gone down a dystopian route. To be precise I’ve gone down a French dystopian route with my French fleet arriving. Now I’ve found that it’s not easy to get any painting done in a hotel room cleaning and building up models is another thing altogether. That meant that I manged to get everything prepped and ready for painting whilst I was away. Then with two nights at home I’ve had a bit of time to get the airbrush out to make a really good start…
