    I saw this and immediately went looking through my old metal album covers. Amazing!
  2. I didn't even think of that. Genius! Inspector Kemp would make a GREAT Mortimer.
  3. You have outdone yourself! I saw this on the Twitter feed, and called everyone I know. So far, I've got 27 committed to buy. I'm getting two sets. I want one to paint normally, and one to paint in greyscale. I can't WAIT!!!
  4. Definitely on my shopping list! Then again, the entire SITE is on my shopping list...
  5. I agree, but putting together the Spritz model is a testament to patience!. 🙂
  6. My Easter sale haul has been delivered! Time to break out the Tamiya and the primer! 🙂
  7. I get so mad at these special edition alts. I buy stuff, the mini doesn't go with ANY of my current keywords, and now I have to buy a Chimera crew! Then I have to have another awkward conversation with my wife, and I have to fall back on, "well your hair appointments cost almost $300, and I won't even bring up Sephora..." See what you did there? Marital strife! Seriously, though, keep up the great work! I love a game system that doesn't cost me $1K+ to change models. 🙂
  8. Miss Tique is the perfect addition to my Performers. PERFECT. Will she be available as an individual purchase? It allows me to keep the Femme Fatales theme. Now I just need a female Harata Ngaatoro and I'll be set. 🙂
  9. That's your FIRST attempt?!? Nice job!
  10. I ordered the terrain set (yay!) which is coming in from the UK in six weeks (boo!). I'll post a work in progress. I think I figured out a good method for the project. I'll be wrapping the edges in plexiglas for a straight pour. I'm going to hot glue the buildings to the base, build up the muck/grime on the sides of the buildings to just slightly above water level, and paint the remaining areas brown and green matching the flow pattern. Then we'll do a quick pour of 2-part epoxy and a LONG cure. I may cannibalize some old models to put some "canal monsters" in the water. I've got the 3' x 3' base, and a nice set of folding legs to keep it portable.
  11. I want to paint my translucent miniatures directly, without priming. I would like to keep them clear/translucent, reminiscent of glass figurines. Has anyone tried to do this with alcohol-based inks? I know they work on glass and clear resin very well, but I haven't tried them on miniatures.
  12. Thanks for the advice. I usually do modular tables that I break up into 12" x12" squares, but this will be my first dedicated table with a central theme. Well, my first of five. This one is the canal table to represent an upscale section of Malifaux City, then I'll do an Old West style table, a ruined part of town, a Bayou table, and an ancient forest, complete with Titania's throne. 🙂 What can I say? When your wife tells you to make Malifaux gaming tables, you make Malifaux gaming tables! I plan on posting work in progress and completed shots once all the pieces come in.
  13. I'm picking up the TTCombat Streets of Venice set to make a new 3'x3' Malifaux table. I've got my plywood, my foldable legs, and my magnets to make the building levels removable yet sturdy. However, I would like it to be a true water table, with canals full of resin-based water from edge to edge. I've never worked with resin though. Would it be better to build up the edge of the table with wood, or would hot gluing plexiglas to the edges work until the resin cures? Should I lightly tint the resin? Also, how best should I paint the underlayment to show the desired water effect?
  14. Even though you had bad luck with the shipment, it looks like you had a really good time at LVO. I couldn't make it this time, but my family will DEFINITELY see you next year!
  15. I'm so sorry. That is just the worst luck. I hope you still have fun at LVO, though.
  16. That color scheme is much more muted than your usual posts. That's not meant as an insult. I just find it interesting when artists change up their styles. Playing with color, light, and shadow in such a rigidly defined medium as miniature painting shows a real grasp of color theory and practical application, as defined by the perceived tone of the piece in question. That shows an incredible depth of skill. I'm very impressed.
  17. Good evening. My wonderful family gave me a great gift this year. They agreed to learn to play Malifaux, as long as I paid for everything. Smart kids. My wife picked Colette Du Bois, my son chose Eurypides, and my daughter in law though Youko was cool. I'm a dedicated Titania fanboy. The problem I'm having is that there doesn't seem to be a group or community in the area. I'm new to Orlando, and I don't have a good read on the gaming community yet. Does anybody have any info on a Wyrd Games community in the greater Disney collective?
  18. Bough sow? Hickory smoked bacon? Tree squealer? Moss boss? I've got a ton of 'em! Dad jokes have noting on grandpa jokes. 🙂
  19. Unfortunately, there are three things that hold me back from commissioning pieces. 1. I worked many, many, MANY years ago with the 'Eavy Metal team, but I've been out of it for 20 years. I need to get those skills back. I don't want to be another old guy crowing about his glory days. 2. I'm a cheap bastard! 🙂 3. If I were to get anyone other than my son (a Golden Demon winner) to paint my stuff, holiday visits would get really uncomfortable. But if I were to do so, and none of those conditions applied, you would definitely be my first call. Your work is just amazing!
  20. Ye Flippin' Gods! That is some excellent work. PLEASE tell me you do commissions!
