December Hobby & New Year Gaming

Domo

It’s been a year since the last update (ha ha), but check out the December Paint Appreciation gallery (link here, or via the website hobby menu or on Facebook photo gallery). It was a bit of a quieter month, but I figure that is really to be expected for the time of year, let alone recovery from the effort people put in to go the extra mile for Not Grey November. We should call out to Steve, however, who managed to complete painting a years long goal of 10k Ultramarines, whilst also fully paining every GW box set! Certainly worth… Read moreDecember Hobby & New Year Gaming

Hobbytime Update!

Domo

Its only a few days late… not quite a whole week, but here is the Paint Appreciation Society gallery for October! Another good month with some stunning effort and progress being displayed. Take a look and get motivated, because we are now into Not Grey November – this is not a competition, or an obligation, but our annual encouragement to pick up a brush and just do something, anything, to help you feel good about your pile of shame and moving it towards completion 🙂 Already there have been some really cool pictures turning up in our WhatsApp group (head… Read moreHobbytime Update!

Back to School Hobbytime

Domo

As September comes to an end, it’s time to reflect on the hobby that we have achieved. Slightly lighter this month, but that’s not a slight on anyone – September is always a busy one as life returns to normal from the summer rush! Check it out via the Hobby menu item, or click here to check it out! Additionally, you can also find these images on our Facebook, and shortly, our Instagram too!

Just in time for June!

Domo

Damn that was a busy month! I completely forgot to even take any photos of the games being played on the 12th of June – sorry, and here we are, close to a week over due for the games played on the 26th (see below). I am slacking! I guess its just a miracle that I remembered Junes’ Paint Appreciation Society round up… We are also coming up on 3 and a half weeks until our next Warmachine Steamroller tournament – sign ups are looking good, but there’s still time to get in if you want to throw down 🙂

April’s Hobby and the Apocalypse

Domo

It’s already May, and so its time to look back at the hobby time our attendees have accomplished in the past month! April ’25 Paint Appreciation Society is the gallery, also available from the Hobby Corner drop down menu above. Last weekend, we also hosted the Tivendus Apocalypse game, which was a huge success! There will be more to come on this as we will have a few articles coming that will tell the story of the weekend, and what went down… But until then, here are a few pictures from when I got to swing past on the Saturday… Read moreApril’s Hobby and the Apocalypse

Choosing a Painting Scheme

Domo

This is the first in a few hobby related articles that I plan to write. I am a notoriously lazy painter, and have transitioned to pretty much only using GW Contrast paints as a once-and-done solution, but that is no reason to not have beautiful models with just a little care and colour theory. For this, I will be referencing models that I have painted in the past, and then in the next couple of articles, progress to painting a new set of models for one of my Warmachine Armies. First of all, why should you listen to me? I… Read moreChoosing a Painting Scheme

Not forgetting the hobby

Domo

This weeks’ update is kind of a minor one really, but it is an important aspect of what we all like to do. The Hobby. Shortly, we will be launching a hobby section on this website that we will be using to showcase our attendees models, as well as (hopefully) regular hobby-centric articles, whether its painting, terrain, kitbashing or something else entirely (did someone say Battle Reports?!). While the cynics would be right that this is partly in aid of appeasing the almighty algorithm and increasing our visibility on social media – we do hope to be a helpful and… Read moreNot forgetting the hobby
