  • Painting Zombicide – Ann the Nun

    Did a bit more painting of Zombicide figures last evening, so should have some content for the next several days.  First stage was the base painting, and the shading, which then allows them to dry fully until highlighting tonight.  And since I am a bit more in practice after my prior work with Clovis, I…

  • Prepping for more painting

    Spent some time today, getting the next set of figures for Zombicide ready for painting.  At this point, it is just the base plastic figure, but these are all currently drying from the primer, set to be painted over the next several weeks.

  • Runewars – Waiqar vs Latari

    Finally got a chance to play some more Runewars, which has been quite some time.  As a result, both of my son’s ended up playing against each other, while I attempted to decipher and teach the rules.  Fairly quickly, they both picked up the game, and managed to get a series of maneuvers that surprised…

  • Watching Paint Dry

    I have been planning to get back into miniature painting again for some time, and even went to the effort of designing and configuring a new youtube channel.  However, it has taken until now for me to actually get started.  Hopefully by the time this posts, I will have an actually painted miniature, with a…

  • Runewars Recruits – Waiqar Infantry Command

    To go along side the Daqan command unit, we added the associated Waiqar command unit.  Similar in theme, and similarly simple in construction, the detail continues to impress.  These are of course for the Runewars Miniatures game, the full unit name being the Waiqar Infantry Command unit.  I particularly like the skeletal drummer, previous musicians…

  • Runewars recruits – Daqan Infantry Command

    Adding a few units to the Runewars Miniatures collection with my younger son, this time adding in the Runewars: Daqan Infantry Unit Upgrade Expansion Pack, to boost the infantry units.  Obviously not painted yet, but assembled and otherwise ready to go.  Compared to other plastics that I have assembled, these continue to be remarkable easy…

  • Gamematz

    On the videos that I have posted for Star Wars Armada, you may have noticed the starfield game mat that has been used.  This is a product from a company named Gamematz (www.gamematz.com), from which I have started to order various gaming covers.  The big advantage I found with Armada is that they not only…

  • New consideration for the painting projects

    If you have been a follower of this site (not sure those exist), then you may have read a couple weeks ago that I was inspired to start painting miniatures again with my recent purchase of Zombicide: Black Plague.  I even went so far as to create a subject-specific YouTube channel to create and post…
