Hello everybody. Sorry for getting in this thread late (and not doing a read up since I’m a lazy old man). There were many reasons. One being that I have been in shock because I forgot to cancel my backstage trial and now poor @avernos has to suffer the consequences. (This is an inside joke not to be taken seriously. For details read up on the comments on the Speed Freaks Lets Play)
But now answers:
1. Do you have a successful, tried and true, plan or approach to tackle hobby projects? If so, how do you go about it?
If I had I would teach it in seminars. And charge insane and immoral amounts of money!
2. Props in gaming – do you use any bolt-on game hacks like customised or scratch-made turn counters, objective markers, condition markers, tokens, deployment points, dice towers, or visual aids? If so please post pics and info on how you use them and how they assist in gaming
Not really. I guess my Blood Bowl Field and Dugout could be counted but all in all I usually stick with what is in the box.
3. What part of hobby gives you the biggest uplift? I.e., does playing a game give you the endorphin hit or are you happier building and painting? Any elements of the hobby that you don’t enjoy or that feel like a grind or a chore?
Finishing a build, a model or a terrain piece is great. Getting kind words about is even better. Playing (with the right players) is much fun too. (The other side of the coin is how much time and money this hobby burns through… and sometimes motivation and the occasional black dog can be a real PITA.)
And I did some hobby the last two days:
And now I’ll grab something to munch and watch the rest of the Weekender. (And contemplate if I should indulge in trying to win that Speed Freeks box or not… I love my Orks but I don’t feel that game… maybe watch the Lets Play after that)
