Weekly Waffle #233
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.…

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…

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…

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…

This week weekly waffle I’m putting down as a really good hobby week. Not necessarily a really productive one but I’ve really enjoyed everything I’ve done with none of it feeling like a chore. That is until I started trying to writ the waffle for this week. I’ve sat down to type it up and my mind has gone blank and my fingers have stopped working. I was even in two minds about just giving up but I can’t do that so here we go with take two. No gaming this week but we do have a D&D session planned for tomorrow and I’m thinking it’s going to be a…

I’m going to start this weeks weekly waffle with a gaming update from what turned out be an epic D&D session on Sunday. For some time now we have been building up to what could be a party ending encounter. An evil cabal have a continent spanning ritual underway and we are trying to stop it and dispatch the necromancer responsible. We’ve hand an encounter with him before and knew it would take all our combined skills to stand a chance of taking him down. So we have made it as far as the obsidian pyramids that is the centre of the ritual to find hundreds of cultists chanting in…

No gaming for me this weeks weekly waffle with no D&D session and me missing game night because of work commitments. Although on a positive note I shouldn’t have any evening work now for a while so should be ok for next week and I might feel a little bit more alive and wanting to get some painting done. Instead of sitting there and slipping into a mild vegetative state. On the D&D front Anna our DM has been producing some resources to go on the World Anvil web site for other DM’s to use. I’ve been working on producing some maps and floor plans to support the creations she…
