Not sure where to find it in NYC, but Blue Point Brewery on Long Island makes some great beers (about 50 miles east of NYC). If you can find Blue Point products, try their Toasted Lager, Pale ale and Hoptical Illusion IPA (my favorite of their beers).

Jim, Welcome to Wyrd!

(now 4 MMSI members have posted in this discussion)

Good to see the word getting out about the book and upcoming show. Both topics already have discussion over at the Clubhouse forum (I'm trying to convince more of the garage kit modelers to show up at the MMSI show).

How long did the GlossCote get to dry between layers and and how longer before the DullCote was then added?

I bought GlossCote (with the intention of using it under decals), and I seem to remember it requiring a lot longer to dry than a light mist of DullCote does. If the DullCote was sprayed over uncured Gloss, the solvents in the GlossCote would migrate thru the DullCote.

We played the introductory scenario (kill 15 zombies in 15 turns). We (the humans) did really well at drawing the gun cards, so we killed all the needed zombies in about 11 turns.

I enjoyed it. Next time, we'll ad in the advanced rules and try one of the other scenarios.

YAY! I'd be very interested to know your impressions of the game itself Skya.

Honestly, I'm not that experienced as a 'gamer', so I could be way off base.

I did manage to put a plug for Wyrd into my review, so I don't feel so bad, unashamedly pimping my blog here.....

I gave the rules a read-thru in preparation for trying it out tomorrow. I think having the soundtrack CD playing is a must for the first game (we'll see if it gets used in future sessions).

If it plays well, I will be buying the expansion.

I'll be there. The games I have sceduled are Chill and Deadlands (no minis games, I just paint 'em)

I'm waiting to see if one of the stateside dealers will pick these up. The 15-20 Euro shipping from Germany is higher than I'd like to pay (the figure is something like 38Euros)

So you're sure you aren't looking for one of these?

:confused: I wish there were another word, rather than bust.

It always gets my hopes up.

not to go too far off topic, but is this more what you had in mind SV?

No, no, no it's not spam.....

So I can go for it too : I want to buy a gift for my wife for her birthday. I just found two fantastic sites :

http://www.voilesdenuit.com/

http://www.games-workshop.com/

As I hesitate please suggest me what I could buy...

With those two links, somehow I think it is really a gift for you.

:vb_devil:

Happy Birthday!

:bdayparty

It usually works better to shoot a larger image, perform any required manipulation on the larger image, and then reduce the size down to what you want when you are done.

I actually have the nekkid lady too...I got it as a special deal last year.

I'm not sure why she is topless, I just know that she is and I like it that way.

Has something to do with helping her aim the RPG launcher.

(that's my story and I'm sticking to it)

Yeah, it's a great mini! Have to say though, following that bit of text at the end, that there's nothing irrational about having a great love for Jaffa Cakes! They're one of the best things ever! Are they pretty much UK exclusive, then? I'd be surprised (not often Blighty gets something good, no one else does) but if so I genuinely weep for my cousins across the world....

I've seen them here in the US (although I may not have seen the term "Jaffa Cake" on the package), but they certainly aren't common.

Now I have to go out and look for them again. I'll have to check tomorrow on my way to work (also need some of the Patak's curry sauces, and unfortunately I can't find them in my regular store).

Bath-time Bubbles was available at the Croc booth last year at Gen Con. She's probably my favorite Croc Games sculpt (edging out the Daughter of the Phoenix).

Do you mean they deleted them because of the content?

yep.

All my NNN work (non-nekkid nekkid) was deleted by P-Bucket.

I'll probably post my Pirate Queen picture (from this year's Femme Fatales club challenge) on P-Bucket just to see how long it lasts there.

...Guy at work had the same name as a man that died in a plane crash here in Georgia. His wife was getting phone calls within three hours of the crash asking her 'how she felt about her husbands death'. He was sitting there in the living room when they called...

I share the same name with the Governor of South Dakota who was killed in a plane crash (mid-90s, IIRC), so I got sick of that.

How useful P-Bucket is depends entirely on the type of minis you paint. All 4 images in my Wyrd gallery (the ones that aren't contest entries) were deleted by P-Bucket.

Nonono - now we know it was sculpted by Kev White, cheers! Couldn't figure the sculptor out for the life of me....

that explains why I liked it so much

as a frequent painter of NNN (non-nekkid nekkid) I am strongly in the pro-nipple camp. Keep on sculpting them nips!

It's much easier for you to file them off than it is to add them.

Garage kits are freaking cool!! If you like that sort of thing, check out Amazing Figure Modeler....a fantastic magazine filled with that kind of stuff:

AFM is a great magazine, but don't forget Kitbuilders Magazine (I'm subscribed to both).

Just need to get around to subscribing to Historical Miniature and Figure International as well.

I soooooooooo "Want" the centaur, anyone every finds out where to get one be sure to post the link, please, please, pretty please!

the centaur was sculpted by Rocco Tartamella. It doesn't currently show in his web store, but email him (contact info is on the website). I've bought from him before and can highly recommend his sculpts.

The gallery image is of the paintjob Joe Dunaway did for Kitbuilders Magazine (#57)

He will be missed.

Brighter Highlights!

Darker Shadows!

How about a weapons pack of Western-themed items (single action revolver, lever-action rifle, tomahawk, etc)?
