Over the past few weeks I have been in the midst of building a new Chaos Warriors army, now normally I do this through a process of constructing army list upon army list slowly eliminating those that are unplayable until only a handful lists remain from which I choose the best – but not this time.

Stef prefers a buy what is cool and mould that into a workable force method, Cooper combines the army list method with what looks cool, Spencer picks a theme and holds on to it die hard to the end even if his vision was rose tinted.

As my painting comrade Stef has already mentioned in his WIP Sunday post, we spent the day round a friend’s house painting. This is not an unusual occurrence as we do this often but it got me thinking is this unique to us or do other groups of friends get together and spend a whole day working on hobby projects? continue reading »

Salutation readers!

As you may have already noticed my comrade Stef has set out a nice series of articles concerning the basics of painting, starting form the very beginning and working through all the techniques you will need to become a MiniPainter your self.

I on the other hand prefer a less rigid approach, over the coming weeks and months I will endeavor to bring you informative articles about whatever I happen to be doing at that moment in time. Before you all wander back to Stef’s articles give me a moment of your time, I won’t bring you articles about how I have managed to get the DVD draw on my PC stuck or about the multitudinous mundane and boring tasks I perform during the day Oh no sir!

I will deliver articles concerning the every day hobby activates of your average painter (That would be me, this isn’t some off the wall social experiment were I follow some one around annotating their life), this will be anything from putting brand new models together to painting lighting effects or attempting the dreaded non-metallic metals!

So with this in mind I hope at least some of my haphazard editorials will be helpful.
