    New models

    Spent some time this last weekend catching up on some modeling, and tackled a bit of assemblies. A couple weeks ago I picked up a discount box of Star Wars Legion Range Troopers, and I had a Bolt Action M3 Grant Medium Tank that had been on pre-order for a couple of months. I recorded…

  • Warband “Sarcophagus”

    Warband “Sarcophagus”

    Working on a new design, inspired by some options I saw online, to store and transport securely warband miniatures. For me, this means my Mordheim warbands, but any skirmish scale game would function. Basically, 10 to 20 models is the intent – beyond that and any storage system becomes rather unwieldy. For me, this means…

  • Fresh Investigators

    Fresh Investigators

    With our kickoff character session today, we have a fresh set of Investigators ready for the upcoming Call of Cthulhu Pulp Cthulhu campaign. My process is simple, each player develops a concept and an AI image of their character. They then select a 3d printed miniature for their character, which I will then paint up,…

  • Fixing the Anycubic Kobra 2 Max

    Fixing the Anycubic Kobra 2 Max

    Sometime last year, I acquired the large-format 3d printer from Anycubic, the Kobra 2 Max. The intent was for large prints, jobs that I couldn’t handle on my aging Prusa MK3s. With a build volume of 420x420mm, this handles about 4x the volume. The hope was further efforts with life-size droids, perhaps some cos-play helmets,…

  • The Treant

    The Treant

    With my recent focus on painting efforts, I had a bit of a break from the dwarven warband, and opted to paint up a large Treant, specifically Ohro the Tree Shepherd from The Beholder Miniatures. I am intending to use this piece for a special Mordheim scenario, king of the hill style battle. You may…

  • Dwarf Treasure Hunters (Mordheim) – Grimnar Ironhand

    Dwarf Treasure Hunters (Mordheim) – Grimnar Ironhand

    Continuing my painting tutorial series with a Dwarf Noble model, and the start of a new Mordheim warband – the Dwarf Treasure Hunters. As my warband leader, Grimnar Ironhand provides the stubbornness and strength of the dwarves, ready to face any challenges that may come their way. I tried a few alternate techniques this time,…

  • Dog Tags update

    Dog Tags update

    Managed to cut and clean up a bunch of the acrylic, and then start to assemble the various components. Overall, I am happy with the look and format. However, there is notable flaws in the laser engraving of the acrylic – I suspect my settings are too hot for both engraving and cutting. Quite a…

  • Bolt Action Scoreboard

    Bolt Action Scoreboard

    Finally caught up (a little) on my product development, and posted out Bolt Action Scoreboard on Etsy (soon to follow here). This includes both a digital download option, as well as the physical laser-cut design, depending on the customer’s capabilities. With the weather starting to warm up, it will be nice to get back into…
