Sevorin sorry about that. Auto correct got me! LOL

Savoring, That would be great if you would be willing to come up to the shop tonight. I should be able to be there by about 5pm if that works for you. My last class should be done by 3 and I'll swing back to the hotel, clean up and then head to the store. Just drop me a line here if you're still available and willing.

Just curious if any locals on here plan on being at The Game Room in Toledo, OH tomorrow night (June 10th) or Wednesday night too if they have the room. I am working in the area the next three days and really looking to get a demo or my first m2e game in while here. If so, please drop me a line on what time you plan on being there. Thanks!

I haven't tested it on my LG G2 yet but it does immediately reset on Mt tablet. (Acer a200 running Android 4.0.3) I also agree qwith previous post regarding the color combination for the Soulstone pool and available being difficult to read. I think the text font needs to be a brighter color over the Red.

Link is back on first post here in this thread.

Yeah what therat said. I've installed it and started messing around. Just wondering how feedback or suggestions will be handled.

I usually basecoat with Vallejo Model Air Grey Primer. It goes on really smooth wither applying with the airbrush (when home) or brushed on (when traveling for work). It is a bit darker grey but can easily layer to either end of the spectrum for darker or brighter colors. I go through many more bottles of it than any other dropper bottle I purchase. LOL

There is a ton of great information above. However, in my opinion paint for our miniatures are as personal is picking a favorite beer or soda. We all have different needs and preferences. Some paints work better for different styles. Like a lot of people I started out with GW's Citadel paints when I first got into the hobby with 40K. I then switched to Vallejo Model and Game paints. I then switched over to try several different Reaper Master Series and HD. Lastly, I've begun using more Vallejo Model Air paints as I dabble with an airbrush and also like the smoothness of them with a traditional brush. To sum it up its nice to branch out and try different types and styles of painting as we grow in the hobby. But I do know must of us are not using disposable income and have to watch out budget. The progress I spoke of above has been over almost a 5 year period. LOL

Dang I should have looked you up this week. I was just in South Indianapolis all week and even had my models with me. LOL

Hey There James. I don't know about the immediate area of Sandusky but there is a Comic Store in Strongsville which is about an hour away. Fenton Crack here on the forums dropped me a line about it. I've been there once just to check it out. Its about 45 minutes the other direction from me. I certainly wouldn't be against coming up your way from time to time or meeting at a shop somewhere in the middle like that. I have yet to play a game of 2nd Edition myself. I had a few of the first addition a couple of years ago so its like being brand new to me again as well.

If this moves forward and you need more Android testers, I'd be willing. I have a couple different tablets and phones running various versions of Android.

I guess I do have a bit of concern using just cardstock. But that is a worry I have no experience with. Perhaps it is sturdy enough alone. As far as carrying or storing. I don't plan to store what I build far from my gaming area and I really don't plan on transporting it at all. I think any terrain I really build is going to stay where its built for the most part. I don't really see me taking much in the way over to someone else's home nor taking stuff back and forth to a gaming store either. I am sure there may be the rare case where I am donating terrain for an event or just stuff I don't use anymore that I am giving to a store to use for their terrain. I actually would rather print things out ahead of time, take the supplies to the store and build it there with other help as well. I am really thinking about giving this a go this weekend when I get home from traveling for work. I am excited to give it a go. I see some mention of cardstock and weight above. Does anyone have any advice or preference as it relates to type of printer? Is inkjet sufficient? Do those of you making cardstock terrain use laser jet or have a print shop do the printing for you on their commercial printers? Just curious.

I really liked the visual but wasn't a big fan of the audio of the M2e clip. It just seemed a little busy. It seemed like both some sound effects (maybe wind blowing) and some music. I think separating the two out to various parts of the clip would be more pleasant to the ears. Just my 2 soulstones worth.

This sounds like so much fun! I wonder if I could drum up any interest in my area to do such a thing. It would really add something different to that games.

I really like this hybrid version of Taelor! You've got a great vision and talent to put that vision to image!

The first experience I had with miniatures was with D&D. I really wanted to get into wargaming so did some research. I was talking a coworker into starting up with me so we decided on 40k since it seemed the easiest to find games for. I quickly got into the hobby side of things more than playing with the ultra competitive crowd at my local gaming store. I ended up with over 3,000 points each of Black Templar and Tyranids. I think about half are assembled and about a third are finished painted. I gave up on the game after about two years because I didn't like the cost or the direction GW was taking things. I got out right before finecast hit the shelves. At this point I am actually looking into some trade sites trying to unload all of my 40k models. Go figure! LOL I started getting into Malifaux at the end of my 40k time and fell in love with the models, the game and the community. I also started some Flames of War armies for my larger scale itches and it seems to appeal to a larger group of my friends that I am slowly getting into tabletop wargaming. Lastly, I picked up several X-wing models and some Wild West Exodus but Malifaux remains my main game and hobby efforts for now. I don't foresee me getting into any other games but I do still have a mountain of models that need painted and some are projects for friends I need to finish.

I was looking at the Graffam files a couple of weeks ago. It was nice to see some pictures using some of them. I'd like to see some in person sometime. I've wondered how the foamcore would work as Fenton mentioned. I've read people printing to regular paper and gluing to the face of the foamcore. I've also read of people printing to label paper and cutting it out and sticking to the foamcore.

As already mentioned I quickly found myself in the hobby burnout with other past gaming systems. I haven't experienced that with Malifaux as of yet. With that being said I don't think I did any Malifaux in 2013 due to other things taking up time. I got the bug back at the turn of the new year. Combine that with the motivation that I've found joining the ToMB group here and I've painted more Malifaux models in the past 3 weeks than I did the previous 2 to 3 years combined. One thing I've done differently so far is I paint for 30 to 60 minutes and go do something else. I come back and do it again. Another thing nice about Malifaux is I can switch to another crew or faction and paint a completely different style or theme. No more painting 30 Marines over and over again to field an army. That's been a huge difference maker for me with this gaming system. Not to mention I really like most of the models released to date. This includes new and old. I still have a lot of metal Malifaux models that need painting. I'm just taking it all in stride right now. Lastly, social media helps motivate me too. I check out people's work and progress here, Twitter, Tumblr, Google+ and YouTube looking for inspiration and motivation. I also listen to a lot of podcasts as I travel frequently for work and it really helps past the time and keeps me thinking about games and hobbies.

Anyone know of a place or group that plays in the Brodheadsville, Tannersville, East Stroudsburg or Lehighton, PA area? I am hoping to not only finish painting my crew in my travels but also get my first games in with them and the M2e rules.

Good question. I never thought about doing that myself actually.

"(2) or More Onryo" I would definitely lean more toward the More in that statement. I played a game last week and ended up having to proxy a 3rd Onryo multiple times in a single game. Everything else mentioned is spot on in my opinion even if I am just starting Kirai myself. I still need to pick up a second blister of Night Terrors and Gaki then I should be set for awhile.
