I've finished painting another 3D Printed resin miniature. This one is called "Cyberpunk Mixed Martial Artist," but to me he's Max Powers, the bouncer of a seedy dive, his days in the ring are behind him now. He's had a few episodes of "metal madness" due to his enhancements, but he's better now - so… Continue reading Max Powers
Guihan & April meet Officers Qwan & O'Malley There was only a cold silence as Sticky Fingers Jane walked away from Guihan and April. Once she was out of sight, April remarked "She looked pissed."

I needed a thief, a pickpocket to be exact, as a NPC in playing my Delivery Encounter for 5150: New Beginnings.

She… Continue reading Sticky Fingers Jane

While waiting for paint to dry, literally when using a glaze technique you need to let the paint completely dry before applying the next coat (unless you want to blend colors & that's a whole other subject) - back on topic - whenever I reach a point in miniature painting or any other task when… Continue reading Stuck on Stucco
It's been too long since I've posted to the blog. I've spent the last week in February and most of this month on a couple of painting commissions. I don't do commission work very often, and I think this will be the last time I'll do a 15mm commission. (I'm really not very good at… Continue reading Something Concrete
