Games Workshop Great Weapon Dwarf Warriors

First off a comment: I'm not really liking these sculpts.  Maybe I just had a bad set, but they feel under quality compared to other plastic kits from GW.  Most of the issue I had was in the shoulder joins and the beard and how it draped.  I'm actually hoping I just got two kits confused and thats where the issue lay.

I'll upload pics later.

15mm/6mm Woods (WIP)

Good bye to green felt templates!  I ended up with a scrap piece of 1/4" ply wood from some home remodeling.  And while I had an urge to do some buildings for 15mm, I haven't been playing a lot of 15mm gaming lately.  So, I decided that some woods would work for both 6mm (Dirtside 2 and Strike Legion) as well as 15mm sci fi or 15mm anceints gaming (ADG). I started by: Sketching out some rough circular shapes on the 1/4" ply Cutting them out with a jig saw.  I didn't follow the lines exactly, just tried to keep near them Power sanded down the edges to give them a bit of a gradual slope Glued 3"(For 15mm) or 2" (for 6mm) around the edges, with one or two in the middle for support.  I mostly left them open as these are for gaming, not for display.  I need to fit the figures in there!  This was done with liquid nails.  I put about a pea worth of liquid nails down, pushed the nail in and gave it a bit of a twirl.   Left me with the foll...

Heresy Hellmites

80 Skaven clan rats have been painted up, only awaiting the dozens of fellow to make up the rest of the army...  To take a break I did a quick paint job on Heresy's Hellmites: Nothing fancy, just a three color dry bush to get them up and off the table.  Lovely little sculpts, but I think I mismatched some of the backs to bodies. Colors: Body: Base GW Chardonite Granite, Wash Black, Highlight Graveyard earth Beaks: Base Tausept Ochre, Wash Black, Highlight Graveyard Earth Sack: Base VMC Hull Red, Wash GW Badab Black, Highlight Dark Flesh, Highlight Blood Red, Wash Ogryn Flesh Base: Mushroom, Wash Raw Umber, Drybrush Mushroom, Drybrush Butter Pecan, Drybrush Vintage White.  Army Painter 4mm/6mm grass tufts.

Syberia, My Take

So, finally played through and beat Syberia 1 & 2, which have been on my list of games to play for... 5 years now? Was really looking forward to seeing a modern graphics adventure game. Pros: -Lush environments that looked beautiful -Steam punk aesthetic that I liked -The Russian environments and slant were a nice break from standard western/asian themes Cons: -Interaction areas didn't stand out. This made some puzzles into frustrating experiences since I had to go back and try to figure out what I missed, which wasn't always obvious as items blended into the background. -Story was so-so. Second one felt much more engaging then the first though. -Felt like a lot of back and forth puzzles, I.E. run over here, do one thing, run over there and do one thing, run back do one thing. Which is kind of annoying. I accept that not every puzzle will be self contained, but sometimes it got annoying.
