Painting Your Board Game Pieces

You know painting minis isn't just for tabletop miniature armies...

I started painting my Descent: Journeys in the Dark 2nd Ed. figs recently.


Finished my Goblin Archers from the Core Set...

 Some games, Descent for example, have some really excellent sculpts for miniatures.
 Plus as the pieces are usually in identical poses (note all of the Goblin Archers in these pics have the same pose) and it lends itself to a kind of assembly line style of painting process, so you can get your game pieces painted up pretty quickly.
And it really makes your games pop even more - really look at the difference between the Goblin Archers and the other unpainted pieces on the table here.

Here's the completed Goblin Archers...




Next...on to my Cave Spiders (just finishing up the basing...)!



Peace...

Lapsed Time

So I backed Pulse during their Kickstater and my own Pulse unit arrived a week or two ago.  After messing around with it a bit, I finally gave it a shot last night and made a little time lapse video off the back deck...



Not bad for my first attempt I must say...

Peace...

Happy Birthday Carrier Fisher!!!




Happy 60th Birthday to Carrie Fisher!



Not sure why, but Fisher's 60th B-day actually made me feel a little old today too! LOL!










You have to wonder if Fisher had any idea that the role she was playing in some Sci Fi flick in 1977 would become such a big deal down the road (she was 21 when Star Wars released).





Be great in Episode VIII to see who her character reacts and deals with Han Solo's death...



Peace...
