We’re looking at Shadows again today, as here I get to discuss a bit about some of the more entertaining ways that they get to break the basic assumptions of the game itself. Unfortunately for me, this also meant that my usual tricks for working with the human form weren’t…

It’s finally time to show off the entire crew of Goblin Pirates, as well as talk about how it is I foresee their playstyle working for people who are just learning to play Freebooter’s Fate. As a demo crew, I’d say they rate in the moderate complexity range – there’s…

Ahh, the weekend. A time when I can finally be somewhat less exhausted, take care of errands with my partner, and spend several hours painting uninterrupted with nice, easy-to-see-in sunshine through my room’s windows. It’s also nice to be able to sit down and work on my hobbies without feeling…

It’s time for another meandering, navel-gazing post where I put my multiple degrees to work when talking about a tabletop wargame. Today’s post is about the underlying issues and cultural parallels found in the Goblin Pirates of Freebooter’s Fate. The Goblin Pirates are the best example of the overall philosophy…

Goblins continue to haunt all of my thoughts, but in a good way. Mostly because I really like goblins in general, though the wackiness of the Freebooter’s Fate goblins is particularly appealing as I spend more and more time painting the individual models. Today’s model is particularly interesting, as it…

I’ve been a little more tuned in to some sculpting projects lately, but I did have some time to work on painting a couple more miniatures. I’ve noticed that I’m painting faster and having less difficulty making some choices on color. While my Goblin Pirates have been the primary beneficiary…

I want to take a bit of time here today to talk about why skirmish games are great for people who either don’t like to do too much painting or who paint rather slowly but enjoy working on pieces to the best of their abilities. This isn’t anything that hasn’t…

Goblins continue to abound on my painting desk. While I appreciate having models that just need to live in the same color families and share some recipes, the experimentation is such a big part of how I like to approach painting these days. So, with that in mind, here’s the…

I’ve finished another model, hooray! Given my usual rate of 1 model every 1-2 days, it looks like I’ll have my next two demo crews finished soon, as there’s only a few more models left to paint for both Goblins and Shadows. These are definitely a lot of fun to…

Painting, painting, and more painting – that’s what’s on the plate these days. Much as I’ve enjoyed some random breaks, I’ve also started comparing some of the earliest miniatures I started for this project with some of the latest ones I’ve been painting, and the difference is enough that I…
