Unboxing: Battlefront Miniatures Black Horse Armored Cavalry Troop
I have a soft spot for Battlefront’s Vietnam line of 15mm miniatures. They were amongst my first painted man dollies. Then there was a unfortunate incident involving a dumpster and a nerd who needed to find himself. Fast forward a few years and Flames of War Nam received a reboot. When this happened the air cavalry and Black Horse armored cavalry boxes immediately caught my … Continue reading Unboxing: Battlefront Miniatures Black Horse Armored Cavalry Troop

Reviving an Old Mule Part Three: The Rolling Stock
Now that we have the engine sorted it’s time for the rolling stock. Like the pannier engine I had two goods wagons, a flatcar, and a liquid tank car primed and sitting in the pile of shame for a few years. It was high time to change that.

Terrain Tutorial: Concrete
This is how I do my basic concrete look. The project is a couple of water tanks for the Adepticon Stalingrad table or it could also be used for a number of other industrial set ups. I’ve seen a ton of other awesome methods out there, but I have a lot of terrain to paint and don’t have the time to spend days on these so this is what you get! Hopefully it’s effective enough and helpful. Continue reading Terrain Tutorial: Concrete
Drew’s 2024 Hobby Goals
2024… for some reason always seemed like a number from the distant future, but here we are! Time to set some hobby goals. I have a ton of gaming interests and unfortunately, like the majority of you, limited time. Especially working full time, having a toddler and multiple gaming interests along with all the other family and friend commitments. Enough of my excuses… damnit!
