Series 7,30 months later…

Back in February 2014, approximately 30 months ago, I wrote up my first impressions of the Windsor & Newton Series 7 paint brushes that my most excellent wife bought me for the Christmas before. These were not a cheap investment, after two and a half years, how are they doing?

State of Play

‘All New War’ version of Warmachine and Hordes hit the streets back in June, so some kind of review is probably in order. However, rather than talk about rules changes in anything but the broadest terms, an overview of the entire WarmaHordes eco-system is in order.

Microart Studios

For my second Infinity partner focus I’m going to talk about Microart Studios. This Polish company has been around for some years and started with resin bases and conversion pieces, which I have used for my Blood Angels and Eldar.

Painting Miniatures A to Z

One of the reasons Infinity (the Game) has a repution of having some of the best minitures in the industry is down to one of their staff painters, an extremely talently gentleman by the name of Angel Giraldez. After producing various painting guides for Vallejo’s paint set, including the Non-Metallic Metal set, Angel self published his first book early this year, entitled ‘Painting miniatures from A to Z’ Masterclass Volume 1.

Terrakami

Before anyone says anything, yes, I have been neglecting my blogging duties. This is a function of real life, family and work over the first half of this year. None of these things have calmed down significantly, however I am back at least at a point where hobby stuff can happen again.

Army in Motion

About 18 months ago I picked up one of the standard Battlefoam Warmachine bags and bar some minor bug points, its been absolutely great. It is more than big enough to transport either my entire Retribution or my entire Cygnar collection. This said, I don’t normally need that many models.

On the Seventh Day

OK, I realise that the seventh edition of Warhammer 40000 has been out for a while, but I have only just picked up my copy, and a review is required.

Templates and Widgets

Widgets are great. These are little measuring devices that help whilst playing tabletop games, and Warmachine in particular loves them because there are a lot of precise measurement involved.

Series 7 First Impressions

Today has been rather annoying. Instead of getting out of the house and actually playing games, I have been working on Eiryss 3. The flip side of this is that I’ve finally got around to breaking out my new Series 7 paint brushes.

Building a Better Dice Bag

As you may or may not be aware, my far better half has a little business making homes for those random number generators that appear in most games.
