A Tale of Two Predators

Posted by admin on Friday, June 25th, 2010

I painted up two Predator tanks.  The first one I built was a basic cannon with the bolter guns. The second, I decided to go all out with the twin linked Lascannons and the side Lascannons.  They turned out pretty good in my opinion.  I took my time on both of these instead of my [...]

New AT-43 Comic

Posted by admin on Thursday, May 13th, 2010

I haven’t made one in months.  I seem to have lost my Muse for drawing all together lately.  I hope I can find my spark again and get back to it.  Come to think of it, I think I owe Privateer Press some more comics as well.  I should get on that! www.at43comic.com

Sabol Army Transport

Posted by admin on Thursday, April 29th, 2010

I picked up a couple of Sabol basic troop bags.  I am VERY impressed with the quality of this product. The price for this bag was around 60 bucks and came loaded with foam.  This foam is a very ridged high quality pluck and pull foam.  You can hold a tray in one hand and [...]

My Space Marine Force

Monday, May 17th, 2010

So I may have gone a bit over board with my Space Marines.  Here are some pictures of my current force.  I say current because I finished building every figure in every box.  I think all told there were two Mega Force boxes, 2 Battalion boxes, Black Reach, and a billion bits and boxes here [...]

Fortress of Redemption

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

I finally finished painting the Fortress of Redemption.  I know I have a ton more figures to paint, but this giant building was just screaming Paint Me! So I did. It seemed like it wouldn’t take too long once it was primed black.  I started with a fairly heavy dry brush of P3 Paints Bastion [...]

Space Hulk

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

I’ve been collecting board games lately to add to my At Home Gaming.  I broke out the Space Hulk box a few days ago and cracked it open.  For those unfamiliar with the game is a remake from their Games Workshop’s 1980′s title.  I never played the old version, but the new version is fantastic.  [...]

GW Figure Case

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

I recently picked up two GW figure cases.  The hard plastic, large briefcase looking cases.  The good thing about these cases are that they are rather large.  That’s about the only nice thing about them.  They are pretty awful for hauling figures around.  Let me explain. When you open the case you’ll notice on the [...]

Space Marines 1500 Point list

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Here is my progress as of today.  I just got done painting up 3 Rhinos and my last Scout.  All that I am missing right now is my Librarian.  I can’t seem to find one anywhere.  I have a Librarian in Terminator armor, but I don’t really want to proxy anything, so there you go.  [...]

Assault Marine Speed Paint

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

I started again painting my SM figures and was feeling a bit overwhelmed at the painting I still needed to do.  After a quick, yet through primer job, I set all 10 Assault Marines in front of me for a quick and dirty speed painting session. I stuck with my method for assembly line painting [...]

Space Marine Progress

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

So it’s been a few days since I’ve managed to have some time to paint and build my Space Marine figures.  Here are some shots at what I have so far. I still have quite a bit more to build, but for now, that’s my Space Marine collection.  Shorty after I took this picture, I [...]

Interview with Battle Foam’s Romeo

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

This is the first of a series of interviews I’m doing with notable people in the Mini Gaming Universe.  If you haven’t heard of Battle Foam then you haven’t been paying much attention for the last 18 months or so.  The topic of Battle Foam has shown up in almost every mini gaming news site [...]

Fortress of Redemption

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

I put together the Fortress of Redemption last night.  I have seen Beasts of War do their build video and was impressed by the scale of this Fortress, but was actually surprised by how large this model actually is.  It was fairly easy to build with a lot of larger pieces that all fit together [...]
