We are starting to get a few responses for the upcoming Malifaux demo and open play. If you are in the Dallas area, please come out and join us!

Just a reminder of the upcoming open play and Malifaux demo games going on at Madness Games and Comics in Plano TX. I saw some other people from the Dallas area complaining about now place to play. Well come and join us on April 30th around 12 noon for Malifaux goodness.

We will be hosting a Malifaux demo game and open play event on April 30th 2011 at Madness Games and Comics in Plano, TX (http://www.facebook.com/madnessgames?sk=info). The event will start at approximately 12 pm and anyone is welcome to join us. We will have plenty of different crews for people to try out. If anyone is interested in attending PM me and I can give you more info/mark you down.

I think a lot of the local community are waiting for the small rule book. We have a small group up here in Dallas and everyone seems to have slacked off a bit. I sometimes get down to Austin to visit relatives, where do you folks play?

Yeah, If you are a Malifaux addict (like most of us) you will findthatthe Malifaux bag is just too small. Too carry all my Malifaux stuffi have two Battlefoam Malifaux bags and one Sabol bag ( of about the same size as the Malifaux bag). I have almost everything from book 1 and 3 or 4 masters and crews from book 2. I wish I had gotten the larger Battlefoam bag, or that Battlefoam had some kind of trade-in program.

Doh! What about Tamiya's dull spray sealer?

Try using some Testors dull coat spray over the models. I do like the light effect on Marcus, but I also agree that it looks like your paint was put on too thick on most models. You probably should thin the paint some.

Love the name. Please just make sure the audio quality is good. I just listened to the D6 Generation where they interviewed the guy from Spartan games and the sound quality on his end was so bad that it drove me crazy. Really bad audio can hurt you more than little content.

For the cloak I based it with Reaper muddy soil, then dry brushed it up with lighter shades of brown up to an ivory color. For the hair I think I based it with a dark tan and then highlighted up a couple of shades of lighter brown. I used all Reaper paints except for a few GW washes in a few spots. I usually don't do a lot of dry brushing, but the texture on the cloak lends itself to dry brushing. For snow I just use baking soda. I use PVA glue and then apply the baking soda, wait for it to dry then use a spray sealer to keep if from flaking off.Then apply a second and third coat as necessary to build up the depth.

All of my Rasputina models have snow bases, but I painted all the other models a long time ago so the colors may not match exactly. Not a big deal since the snow on the bases blends them together.

Just finished the Silent One model for my Rasputina crew. I love the model and the stats for the model so I'm thinking I'll dust off my Rasputina crew soon to give it a go. Unfortunately when I was putting this model on it's base the arm fell off and I had to re-attach it so the joint where the arm attaches is kind of messed up. I did this one in about a day (on and off) since I loved the model I just kept on painting.

I have not, but I'll have to give it a shot next time I have some gold.

No, fog is not blocking, it is obscuring.

Let's not forget mature nephilim and their flight plus carry. Carrying Lilith into melee range of Nicodem usually means one dead Nicodem.

ROFL! I was sitting here, listening to some Dio, painting up my Lucius crew and I was thinking about this very topic. I use a lot of Reaper paints (they are based out of Denton which is about 20 minutes from my house) and for me, my most used/favorite paints are (in no particular order): Reaper Stormy grey (base coat for pretty much any grey to white color) Reaper Muddy Soil (base coat for most of my bases and any red colors) Reaper Golden Shadow (base coat for anything that is gold colored) GW Devlan Mud wash (for coloring in cracks that I missed between colors and for layering on top of Golden Shadow for gold items)

My current favorite brush is a Cotman Winsor & Newton 222 which is a 0. I've had it for a few months now and it still has a really good tip (I use brush soaps to keep them clean).

My favorite is the CST branded insta-cure gap filler CA glue. It comes in a purple bottle is the best of all the different glues I have tried. http://www.cstsales.com/cyanoacrylate_glue.html

Looks nice! I hope I get a chance to play on the new terrain sometime soon.

One thing that I would change. The Lawyer's ability is is called 'Censure' not 'Censor'. Kind of a difference there.

How do you plan on attaching the snake tendrils to the head? I was going ti leave them off and paint the horse first, but they are a pain to attach so I went ahead and added them on before I started painting. Of course now it's going to be close to impossible to get any kind of paint into the upper neck area, but I'm just going to keep it mostly black to represent shadow.

Yeah, I agree. Different flock colors would make it look more natural. But, for most of my games we use a GW mat for the base and I used that flock to match the GW mat.

Yeah. I have added fish and other stuff in water features before, but didn't want to spend the time this time. The board for that terrain feature had been sitting in my office for like 6 months and I finally decided to just get it done. I have used green stuff for the fish in the past, and it was kind of a pain. I guess I need to look and see if I can buy some small fish models to add in. I used Liquitex gloss super heavy gel (mixing medium) for the waterfall. Just painted it on and then painted some white areas to give it that rushing water look.

Just finished a new water feature terrain piece for my miniature games. Glue isn't quite dry on a few of the bushes, so there are still a few white spots, but overall I think it turned out well. This was my first attempt at doing any kind of waterfall with running water. Close up of the water feature. I took these photos with my iPhone, so the quality isn't the best. I can't wait to play with this terrain piece.

You should be able to buy miniature wagon wheels from most craft stores (Michael's, Hobby Lobby, etc). Try there first. I'm using some wagons I got when I bought one of those old west towns off E-bay. It came in a kit with buildings, etc. I dropped the horses (since they don't fit on the 50 mm base) and just went with the wagon.

I used 4 lights, but the two smaller lights really don't do much of anything, they are too small. The larger lights are off of amazon ([ame]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002SOBPH8/ref=oss_product[/ame]) and are 30 watt CPF bulbs. The cloth on the sides of the light box is white. The blue cloth is integrated into the box (it's a fold up design so you can carry the box with you. Thanks for the compliment. I'm using a Canon Xsi DSLR with a cheapo macro attachment instead of a true macro lens. But it turns out well enough.
