Hobby goals 2016 – John

Seeing as I am sadly no longer a Chicago resident my Hobby calendar isn’t quite as focused on Adepticon like Andrew and Ben. I tend to skip around a bit rather than focusing on single projects from start to finish like I should, so quite a few of my goals are just rounding out things… Read More Hobby goals 2016 – John

WIP Wed….Thursday – USMC

We’re gonna have WIP Wednesday posts going up weekly now. Unfortunately this one got delayed due to thunderstorms in the Chicago area knocking my power out. Gotta love Murphy’s Law. My hobby focus continues to be on my United States Marines for Warlord Games’ Bolt Action.  As I’ve mentioned before, I’m preparing an army for… Read More WIP Wed….Thursday – USMC

WIP Wednesday: US Marines

For my first WIP Wednesday post (calling it WIP Wednesday still even though I’m technically posting on Thursday. No big deal.)  I’ll be showing my (very early work) United States Marine Corps army for Bolt Action by Warlord Games.

WIP Wednesday: Bolt Action Chindits

As per my 2016 Hobby Goals, I am aiming to have a Chindits force for next years Adepticon. These are the first five and I am still working out the color scheme. I need to figure out what to do for basing as well.

Ben’s 2016 Hobby goals

Following Andrew’s post about his active hobby goals for the 2016 year, it made me think about my own plans and I decided to write up a list of my own. At the moment most of my minis and hobby supplies are packed up in a storage unit until I have a new apartment locked… Read More Ben’s 2016 Hobby goals

Andrew’s 2016 Hobby goals

I wanted to compile a living list of all the hobby projects I want to tackle for 2016. I’ll tag the list as a page under the banner for easy reference and editing. Note, the 2016 “Hobby year” for me is from April 2016-April 2017. Adepticon is the big event that me and my group… Read More Andrew’s 2016 Hobby goals

Sarissa Precision Far East buildings

 I went in on a whole Far East village from Sarissa Precision and completed two of the nine buildings in the set. So far, I am very impressed with the kits.
