Today marks the official start of painting models for my Shadows crew. While I’d like to say I was incredibly efficient and accomplished a lot, the truth is that I wanted to first try out how to get that ‘ethereal’ look by working on a couple of Wisps, and I…

Despite an ongoing respiratory bug that’s been sapping my will to do almost anything, I’ve still found time to get some painting and hobby done. I think it’s the excitement of steady progress; once you get into the habit of doing something, the amount of effort it takes to start…

Contrary to my earlier plans regarding the next planned crews, I decided to paint one of my Brotherhood minis, both to show how sub-assemblies work and because I was still waiting on the primer coat to cure on my next planned project so I had to pick something to paint.…

I’ll be real: I don’t have a ton of inspiration for every single one of these blog post introductions, in part because there’s only so many ways you can write “well, I did some hobby stuff”, but mostly because I haven’t done the sort of daily writing that’s necessary for…

Quick post today as it’s not really much new for the Cazadors. Given the rate at which I normally complete projects, I’m legitimately impressed that I’ve nearly got two viable demo crews painted to what I would consider a relatively high personal standard. Unfortunately, I know that the last steps…

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day, perhaps the most important holiday for a game about pirate skirmish action. While today’s finished model isn’t quite a pirate, he falls close enough to the pirate spectrum to be appropriate to post. The cazador Comadreja v2 Fun fact: this is the second sculpt…

Now that the Cult’s demo crew is painted, it’s time to get to work on the next, somewhat easier-to-plan crew. Much as I love the motley collection of clothing that you get with pirates, cultists, and other ne’er-do-wells, there’s something to be said for the uniform that comes with Imperial…

One of the best parts of this project has been seeing how my motivation and steady progress have improved ever since I started keeping a record of everything. I am an abysmally slow painter in the best of times, which I make up for by playing games with 10-15 miniatures…

As the Cult continues moving towards completed, I think it’s time to post up their other playstyle-defining Deckhand – Sansâmes. Translated from French, it means “without souls” and that’s exactly what they are: the kind of living, kind of dead “zombies” of the Freebooter’s Fate world that take inspiration from…

Obligatory Clutch joke goes here. In all seriousness, I’m actually going to talk about why I think Cultists are such great models for the Cult and show off the second one that I’ve painted. This was the point when I realized that I can actually accomplish my goal of getting…
