    Welcome, 2022

    January 4, 2022 /

    More time has passed than I would have wished. It seems I was more affected by my return to in-person teaching than I had anticipated. And, alas, my wife and I rang in this new year harboring an unwelcome omicronian…

    Bones Day

    July 17, 2021 /

    Two Saturdays back (July 3) was “Bones Day” — I received my box of Bones miniatures from Reaper’s 5th Kickstarter. It took me almost a decade to learn, but I finally figured out how to work the Reaper Pledge manager.…

    Spring Update: “Bits & Pieces of Everything”

    April 23, 2021 /

    While things do progress apace on the painting front, I have been a thoroughly lax chronicler of my activity… In addition, I’ve been recalled to the classroom for in-person kindergarten. I have to be grateful — my family remained healthy,…

    Packing Away the Year

    December 31, 2020 /

    This one has been a mess for so many. I feel fortunate to have remained healthy, employed, and amongst family. I hope the new year brings better things to everyone. Here is a good bit of my painting progress of…

    Autumnal Splendour

    October 10, 2020 /

    Though working from home, I’m still working — and thus my poor hobby blog has suffered. One consequence of spending so much time à la maison is that the flora about the place has been pampered. Featured above are marigolds,…

    Odd Trios

    August 29, 2020 /

    Today we have a few recent completions, all of which came in groups of three. First up, some ancient Eureka Miniatures Hardlove Steam Driven Impervious Suits. Apparently unpopular or at least unphotogenic, inspirational searches for them on the web were…

    Painting Progress

    August 3, 2020 /

    Here are my latest figures to go into the “completed” column: An admittedly odd pair — a Blitz Bowl / Blood Bowl orc and a 3D-printed owlbear-skin rug from Fat Dragon Games. Continuing with fantasy, we have two well-armed lasses…

    Sweet Jane

    June 11, 2020 /

    Here’s a roundup of some recent completions. First up is what I consider to be one of those silly Reaper fantasy figures that I will likely never use. A bard, I presume, whose “axe” is every bit a modern-day guitar,…

    A bit of a jag

    April 1, 2020 /

    Even before the recent “sheltering in place,” I seem to have gone on a bit of a painting jag — the term is, apparently, an Americanism: “a bout of unrestrained activity or emotion, especially drinking, crying, or laughing.” There is…

    More GW Goblin Goodness … and a Guest

    April 1, 2020 /

    Fairly recent eBay sleuthing resulted in two pertinent finds, which I instantly acquired: This Goblin Regiment was new, still in shrink-wrap, at a somewhat reasonable price. The flanking fellows are — now that I think of it —my first, and…
