I’m building a small gaming board featuring an aircraft crashed to jungle.
If this had come out last year then it would have been perfect for me, as I had two projects that involved a lot of scenery. My Warcry project https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1770283/ and even more so my Deadzone project https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1787958/ However, in […]
My goal is to finish all my woods and related terrain. I have made a start with this project but never finished it.

I've recently become more open to hobbying on holiday, and have gradually upgraded my travel kit. Here's a run through of the 2023 iteration which I've been readying for an upcoming holiday!
In this project I will go through some experimentation with painting in the Grimdark style and using those lessons learned to develop my own, more gritty paint style. I will be using oil paints for the first time in combination […]
I am tinkering with the AI APIs to find applications for this new tech in traditional Tabletop Wargaming.
Once in the distant mists of history we moved into a new house. It had 2 sitting rooms where before we had only had one. There was no question - gaming room! Thus “The Bunker” was born! It was set […]
A little while ago, I passed a garden gnome on my way to breakfast, after our Saturday morning Taichi class and stopped in my tracks. This gnome stood in the grassy space across from an eclectic antiques store and seemed […]

Another year smashing away and slaying the grey in the pile of potential. I'm 52, my eyes aren't what they were. Table ready is good enough. Only characters get eyes. Can I paint another 650+ miniatures this year? More importantly, […]
A discussion on getting more done in 2023!
Following on from 2022, this will be a general log of what I paint over the year. Can't say how often I'll post given the speed of OTT these days but on good days, I'll try. I liked the banner […]

This is going to be a hybrid historical/ fantasy Viking force that will be flexible for just about any and all ruleset but first and foremost is gone be made with the Feudal Patrol ruleset in mind.
