Blog discription

What will you find here? Ramblings from an aging gamer-miniature painter. When I first started out in this hobby computers were in their infancy and finding other gamers could only be done by going to conventions or as in my case bumping into somebody who happened to see me reading "Panzer Leader" on the school bus. Look how far we have come! The internet has allowed our small community to be able to connect on a level I never dreamed of when I was but a small lad. What I do hope you will find here is something interesting from one wargamer/miniature painter to another. I paint miniatures somewhat decently, so I will be posting some pictures of my work, and perhaps a review or two of games and/or miniatures. Most of all this is just about having fun and anything I post here is meant to be for that reason.

Showcase: Infinity: Ariadna... Devil Dogs Team, Antipode K-9

Well I finally got this little beast done. I was a little more stressed about how this was coming along as it is a gift for a friend, so it had to be a little better than I would except for my gaming purposes. I hope I've hit the mark. I need lot's more practice to get smoother transition with the highlights and shadows, but still I am pretty pleased with how this came out. The next thing I need to do is buy a little portable shooting booth and light set up. Looking at the figure in this picture and in person is definitely different. Mostly I think it has to do with my light set up. Another hobby related skill I need to acquire. Anyways I hope you enjoy the end result.


Cheers
Kevin

    WOW!! That beast looks soooo good! When I saw it in its preliminary stages I wondered how it would look completed. I never imagined that! Amazing!!

      Thank you Skip. I had an advantage as I was able to visualize what I was going for. This one did turn out better than I thought when finished.

    Brilliant work right down to the base. The corroded weapon it is holding looks menacing. The paint job really compliments the figure's animation.
