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.

Baryonyx: Queen of the Swamp (The Drowned Earth game)

The Drowned Earth game is played on a 3 X 3 foot mat.

"Once, The world of The Drowned Earth was the home of a great, futuristic civilisation. Their cities spanned the globe, and they were beginning to conquer the solar system.

A terrible cataclysm ended that civilization. For hundreds of years nature reclaimed the earth, prehistoric monsters ruled the wilds, while the survivors of the cataclysm known as "The Event" struggled to survive."

I had an absolute blast painting this one. Of all the dinosaurs for the "The Drowned Earth" game she is my favorite. I needed a little help in color choices, but once I got started it was a breeze. 

Looking forward to painting another twenty some dinosaurs before I even finish my Bondsmen faction.

As always thanks for looking.

  1. Love it! I can see the passion you felt painting a unique creature like this. Can’t wait to see more and the humanoid faction figures.

    1. Thanks MP, I hope you really enjoy the drowned earth games at Adepticon so I get a live human opponent and don't have to solo. We know how much I solo.

  3. Impressive painting as always, Kevin. The vibrant colors most appropriate for a top tier predator.

    1. I had a blast painting it, but it took like eight hours to do! With 20 some more to paint I am going to have to cut corners.

    1. Do it! There is nothing more fun in a Pulp game than being chased by giant dino's! Lol!
