Book title: Color ChoicesAuthor:Stephen QuillerThis book came recommended to me by another painter, and I have to say it was definitely worth the read. The intended audience of this book however is not really that close to the miniature painting hobby domain. Now before I continue with this review, I should make clear that I ...

So again it's time to document my Road to Competition, and for those of you that already saw the previous posts, you'll know that my first project is getting McBain from my tabletop standard to competition level. Note that for KublaCon with an open judging system, it's not so much "competition" against other people as ...
I love Saturdays where I get to paint. It's such a stress relief after a week of work. Today was pretty good for painting as well. More about the specific progress below. Here though is something very much "from the desk".When I paint, I sometimes end up ...
More random desk updates! Here's a photo of McBain. He's mostly done except for some touch ups. I also got highly motivated to create a proper base for him (pictured below). For some reason this model turned into one of those projects that I just really felt like going the extra mile ...

Book title: Color and LightAuthor: James GurneyJames Gurney (creator of Dinotopia) writes what is arguably one of the best books on color theory. No really, if you don't believe me, check out the reviews and ratings on Amazon! Honestly I really enjoyed this book. It's strikes a great balance between explanation and example. ...
My Gators are now more than just a prototype model! The first unit is completed. I have to say it's a little odd to finish a unit before a Warlock, but actually this is huge progress. As a group these guys look pretty cool. These 5 guys actually make up over half ...
Once again I find myself posting about the lack of completion of projects. Oh there's plenty of progress, but nothing completed. I'm leaving tomorrow for another work trip which is going to further cut into any movement toward completion for a couple more days as well. But, in the mean time, here's ...
NATCON this year is being run over Easter and instead of coming to one tournament you have the opportunity of coming to two. Yep two Warmachine/Hordes events.First up on Friday the 6th of April is a one day 25 Point Highlander Event, 5 rounds of 25 points. One Caster/Lock, One Beast/Jack, One Unit, One Solo, ...
I do a lot of "From the Desk" posts on this blog. About 25% in fact. These posts are more for my own motivation than anything else. As of late though, I've been slacking on doing these. Fatherhood and work have both made it challenging to carve out additional time for doing desk posts. As ...
