    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    I do encourage people to make sure they save some of their older miniatures even if they think they're terrible.

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    Let's talk for a moment about the Colorful Tide. (Wow! Look at how much darker that bunker looks in this photo.) A lot of miniature painters will often joke about their piles of shame. i.e. The unpainted miniatures that languish in their collections, sometimes for years, even as they...

    D&D 5E (2014) New Species - Zeetvah (Snarf’s People)

    I honestly thought this thread was about @Snarf Zagyg and I can't tell you how disappointed I am.

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    I think very often we're our own worst critic. I sometimes find myself admiring someone else's miniature and thinking how I'd consider one aspect to be a flaw had I been the one to paint it. Or other times I'll look at a real life object, like the door to a building, and think how unnatural...

    I don't know if we're having some sort of miscommunication here. The example I used was a Bladerunner supplement where you play a replicant or a human on the lam, i.e. members of the replicant resistance, which would be something both different from and in alignment with the core materials of...

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    And the final product. I’m not keen on the pile of leaves on the roof, but that’s life.

    If you purchased a new supplement for a specific game you'd likely expect it to align with the core rulebook, right? For example you'd expect a supplement for Bladerunner to have a similar noir atmosphere rather than turning into a dumb action movie. Don't get me wrong, dumb action movies are...

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    "Oh! I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive." -- Palpatine We are inching ever closer to completion. One oddity I can't help but notice is how much brighter the model is in the photo when compared to the naked eye. If I didn't know any better I'd...

    Happy international talk like a Pirate Day!

    I'm only supposed to talk like a pirate without acting like a pirate? I'm going to have a heck of a time explaining all this blood to my coworkers.

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    I applied some thin layers of Army Painter Uniform Grey with my airbrush. You can see some of the green showing through which is what I wanted. I sponged on some Ash Grey and then sprayed a 50/50 mix of Burnt Sienna with thinner because buildings close to the ground get dirty. I'm going to...

    Because of Shadowrun, I've never had a Mr. Johnson or a Fixer betray the party. Don't get me wrong, I've added "unexpected" complications to a run, but I've never created a scenario where Mr. Johnson deliberately betrays the high trained, well equipped group of malcontents with negotiable...

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    It’s always nice to mix things up a bit. I'm not real big on painting terrain. Throughout this thread, I think I only have two other pieces of terrain making this the third. It's an Imperial Bunker for Star Wars Legion I bought because it was half off at my FLGS. I almost certainly wouldn't...
