  • Replacement sound stands

    In my effort to address the audio issues of the last game, I am working on printing a set of low-profile microphone stands. Part of the issue is the need for more microphones – more mics, better sound in general. However, a mic cannot just lay on the table, and the existing tripods I have…

  • Aznak, in color

    One of the requirements of our upcoming campaign is for all characters to be represented by an accurate figure, which has been painted. For several of our players, that is a stretch, and not what they are comfortable with. However, art supplies and options being what they are, even inexperienced persons can paint remarkably well.…

  • Digital Game Table

    Part of my gaming room configuration has been the design, building, and deployment of a digital table and table space for the group. For this reason, we purchased an oversized table (approximately 10 foot), to fit our overly large group. Eventually, this will be covered by an overlay, providing space for the players books, papers,…

  • Rats

    During our recent group painting session, I tackled a few of the resin giant rat figures I had printed, in preparation for use during one of our various games. These had been in my box for several weeks, but I figured it was a good time to try the results of some more Contrast Paints…

Not only is the Witch newer, I have also allowed for the option of some of the expanded ancestries. Catfolk seems to be a rather popular choice. The player designed the figure in…

  • Resin printing

    In preparation for the upcoming campaign, I have tasked the players with creating or locating a figure, and painting it to match their concept. On my end, I have been collecting a number of models for use for the creatures and NPCs. Some are working, others are still a work in progress. However, given the…

  • 3d printer woes

    I have been having a number of challenges with my 3d printer, specifically the Prusa i3MK3s. At this point, it is I believe 30+ months old, and has been running nearly constantly, so I cant say that it has not been reliable. In fact, it has been for the most part rock solid, and very…

  • Aznak, Kobold Ranger

    One of the many upcoming characters is Aznak, a Kobold Ranger to be played by my youngest. Kobolds are a new entry to our game group options, it is curious to see how well they blend into the campaign. As per all player guidelines, Aznak has a strong relationship to the storyline thru a long-standing…
