I mentioned two posts ago that I should look into games that I already own, like oh say, Starship Troopers. Well, I thought about it and realized that I had a bazillion box sets that I bought incredibly cheap during a game store sell-off. I also realized that I would never, ever get around to...
I'm sitting in The Man Room (my own private sanctuary that probably deserves its own post). My MacBook Pro is sitting here on the desk next to my mini-painting setup. I am listening to U2's Unforgettable Fire. Before that, it was playing The Smiths' Hatful of Hollow. I am painting a miniature for a...
I went to my local not-so-friendly gaming store this weekend to get some of the new Dungeons and Dragons Miniatures "Against the Giants". Below are the minis I got from the case (which is 6 packages) 1 Shocktroop Devil -- 2 Voracious Ice Devil -- 3 Deathpriest of Orcus x1 4 Degenerate Cultist of...
In a few months we start another Warhammer campaign in my wargaming group. Right now, we've been doing a short "mini" campaign with just 300-500 point armies, which I'll admit was my idea. As such, I can also say it isn't all that much fun. I don't like whole battles hinging on one (usually early)...

Back in January, I wrote a monster post about some dolls I have and some dolls I wanted and some other things; now I can write a follow-up, since I've been expanding my doll collection lately. (This will have to do as a post topic; I haven't been making much lately, really.) I finally did get Pullip...
My son came to me this morning and asked "how is it that sometimes you can tell in a movie when someone's bad when they haven't really done anything bad yet? Like, in the movie Sky High I could tell that the girl was a villain even before she came out and told everyone she was." "It's a device...
Parabox is a Japanese company that is specialized in Obitsu body and sells everything related to that. They have a rather large selection of music instruments. Everything from Fender guitars to drumsets. Several of the instruments comes in different sizes. I think the prices are good. The drum sets...
I'm thinking of hanging up my molds and my brush for a while. Last week I didn't have a free evening with work, and this week I don't have one with kid-related stuff, and I just don't feel like trying to shoehorn in yet another thing into my life right now. This Saturday I'll get in a gaming session...
Yes I've been quiet for a while on my own journal. For the past week or so I've had so many irons in the fire that I've not had much time to finish anything, but at long last a few projects came together and I have some free time if the weather permits and my modem does not get lightningstruck....
I'm posting the progress of my elf army over on the Reaper Miniatures discussion forum because, well, they're Reaper miniatures, they're for a Reaper game, and it's fun. I posted a quick update stating that I had used epoxy putty (green stuff) to mount the one-piece figures and since they didn't...
If you have never read J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy or sen the New LIne Cinema film adapations, or if you just know somebody else who has, then chances are that you or somebody you know has at least once made the statement, "I wish Elves (or Hobbits, or Dwarves) were real." And who...
Got the second unit finished. They're on the right (the first is on the left. Now that they are done, I'm working on my Arrer Boyz next. I'm going to take a quick break to read my new book--it has got me thinking about some things that I may mull around here.
I finished the first demi-unit of orcs for my Warhammer Warband. It's not a full-sized unit because of the special warband rules. I need to paint one more unit like them, a unit of Big 'Uns, a unit of Arrer Boyz, and the boss before June 1 (hopefully).
