Clearing the Rust, Wiping the Dust

Well, it’s been the better part of two years since my last update. I’ve added another human to the family, and had a long-overdue surgery on my foot — both of which basically put EVERYTHING on hold. Now that the newest addition is toddling around and the family no longer requires two pairs of eyes constantly on alert to maintain everyone’s survival, I can start thinking about (and working on) updates again. I’ve added an airbrush to my hobby tool arsenal, but figuring out how to use it has been a challenge despite hours of YouTube research. Beyond that, I’ve finally started painting again. IRead More →

Uh – Another update?

So because I can’t let it go a FULL year w/o an update…I’m looking at a full site redesign / start from scratch. Not sure exactly HOW I’ll want it to look, but rest assured that the site will still just mostly feature my models, and any related nonsense I have to say about them, D&D, gaming, etc. ^– haha, drop-cap. How Fahnsee! I’m also thinking of setting up a small, specialized online store… so BOLO for that. No promises, but the gears are turning on it.

So I haven’t posted to the site during the final third of this year — it’s been 4 months since I posted anything! I have a few models completed (just awaiting their seal coat, but complete otherwise) — They’ll make their way to the site after the next few weeks. I haven’t posted in so long for a couple reasons. First, I have a 2-year-old who requires close supervision & constant attention; it makes taking the time to write & edit a post problematic. Another reason it’s been so long — I’m working on a couple side-quests to (hopefully) turn my hobbies into something thatRead More →

Miniature Monsters of D&D

Tagged: D&D, Hobby, Log, Monster, Video, Vlog

I recently took inspiration from the effervescent @CraftsAndMinis videos on YouTube, and thought I might do an unscripted & unedited vlog-like set of videos as I paint through the creatures, monsters, PCs & NPCs of Dungeons & Dragons! I’ve already made a little bit of progress, and I’m through the A’s (with the exception of ants, which will be rectified as soon as my package arrives). I’m not sure where I’ll go with it, or how exactly I want it formatted, but I want to get something out there. And who knows? Maybe I’ll eventually start editing them if it’s worth it. I hope toRead More →

Quick Update – Full Disclosure

Tagged: Discussion, Ignore Me, Painthammer2019, Painting, Website

It occurred to me that people probably know how I’m posting — I generally don’t post to the website more than once per day. This is intentional, because sometimes I can hammer out tons of painted miniatures, and then I won’t be able to get any done for a week (or more). As such, I’d rather have a consistent post going out every day rather than flooding my Twitter people with mini pictures sometimes, then not posting anything about it for a long time. Since I’ve been painting more consistently, and started with a whole bunch of little bitty miniatures, I was able to getRead More →

Campground Items Collected

Whew! That was a lot of minis… but small, and fast to paint. All of these campground items I painted in one evening, doing a layer on each one and then looping back around to the first for the next layer! I feel like these are better than the orcs I previously posted, but again I did them without any prepping of the miniatures. I’ll get back into prepping the miniatures as I get back into the flow of the hobby, and I’m sure they’ll start to look much better.Read More →

Hobby Room Setup as of Jan 2019 Just for my own future reference and/or nostalgia, here’s the paint station setup in The Dungeon, as of my hobby re-start: And here is (some) of the D&D collection, as of December 2018: First up is the place of honor… Hardback shelf & antique display cabinet. The Hardback shelf holds most of my prized hardback books. Bookshelf:AD&D 1e, 1e & 2e special limited re-releases, 2e & 2e revised, and 5e. Not pictured: 3.0/3.5/4.0 hardbacks – due to (obvious) space constraints on the shelf, they’ve been relegated to the normal bookshelf in the larger library in another part ofRead More →

First Painted Group of 2019

Well, here they are – all together! If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve (probably) already seen this picture. But here they are, posted for posterity. A reminder of what happens if you take too much time off from painting. On the plus side, the (modest) skills I previously had have started to return relatively quickly — getting the muscle memory back has be a somewhat quick process. I’m not back to where I was, but it’s getting there… Hopefully that will show in the upcoming models, and I’m making a concerted effort to paint regularly this year. And by “regularly” I mean at leastRead More →
