    Drakonian Miniatures

    Came across this new company courtesy of a post at Frothers Unite UK, and it looks like they have some interesting figures (although some of the pictures are a bit small). It is an Italian company, and the site is in Italian (so for all I know it could say \"ha, ha Primeval, here are barbarians...

    Phrases to ban

    There are certain phrases or words that get used as part of our collective CMON vocabulary that I would be happy to never hear again. I will give an example; please feel free to add your own! \"It\'s not coolphotoornot.com...\" No, but how can I properly rate something I can\'t see? Bad...

    Conan Miniatures!

    A messenger arrived in the realm primeval, barely alive, with a missive for the barbarian king today. Although the parchment was rent and covered in blood due to the messenger being accosted by bandits during his journey, I was able to make out the following. More information is needed, but the...

    Candy in the UK - WTF?

    Came across this - perhaps some of our UK-dwelling members have already seen this. Now I have an insane craving for candy..... http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1086492.html?menu=news.quirkies.badtaste EDIT: even more here: http://neeoo1.milten.lima-city.de/funweblog/upload/_maoam_/ This...

    Full Screen Pop-Ups

    I obviously need to reconfigure my pop-up blocker, but... I just went to ESPN.com to check some baseball scores, and not only did I get an annoying pop-up - it was frickin\' full-screen! What the....? Anyone else come across this - I had not seen or heard of this before.

    Sounds reasonable...

    ..to me, what this lady is asking. :) Not meant to be political in any way, just amazed that this kind of thinking really goes on: http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/HAF239332.htm And of course the husband\'s explanation makes perfect sense :rolleyes:

    Wonder Wash Inks

    Anyone have any experience with Wonder Wash Inks? I saw a banner for them at TMP and checked it out - the flesh wash looks like it could be good for glazing to get a nice tan skintone. here is the website in case you are wondering what in the world I am talking about: http://www.wonderwashink.com/

    Mystery FW Barbarian

    Ok, I thought I knew of all the miniatures in the OOP (and now being re-released) Grenadier Fantasy Warriors Barbarians line, but this guy does not appear in any catalog or list I have seen. He is stamped Grenadier 1992 KA-07 on his base. I have managed to pick up 2 on ebay, both from the UK, so...

    Tanned Flesh

    I have an old Heartbreaker Miniatures necromancer sitting on my table, waiting for me to start on him, but I need some help. I want to do his robes as human skin, but I am not sure what colors to use. The skin wouldn\'t look the same as living flesh, it would be like tanned leather I imagine...

    yet another \"whatever happened to...?\"

    Anyone know what happened to Munky? I always looked forward to seeing the work of a fellow barbarian fanatic, but sadly it has been awhile since I have seen anything posted here by him.

    Styrene/Plasticard thickness

    I know some people use plasticard for weapons, and was wondering if anyone here has done so, and what thickness is best for this. I would like to try this material for a battle-axe if that helps. Thanks!

    Chaos Snakemen

    I don\'t play Warhammer, but I have the old Chaos Snakemen since they fit well in my usual theme of Conan/Kull age stuff. I thought I read somewhere, maybe last year, that they were going to add them back to the Chaos army lists, which I thought was good news since that would surely mean new...

    Adiken paint

    Picked up some Adiken paint at Gencon, anyone used these before? I have heard they need to be shaken quite a bit to mix properly, but the results are worth it. Any opinions? Just got a few colors to try out a skintone recipe.

    Gencon experience

    Went to my first Gencon on Saturday. I really enjoyed it. The highlights: Finally got my hands on the mail-order only Drune Persecutor. Picked up several other miniatures - including the limited edition Amazons by Dark Sword, a cool druidess with a panther from Magnificent Egos, and the...

    Barbarian Migration

    After returning from the post office and mailing off 2 commission figures, I realized that of my top 5 figures, I only own 1 myself. The other four have been sold on ebay, commission works, or done for a mini-exchange. How many of your top 5 figures (the ones that make up your rating here) do...

    Sculptor\'s bane?

    I was just working on Marek\'s great barbarian he did for Assassin miniatures, and as usual I have converted the figure. I seem to be unable to do many figures without somehow altering them, even if it is just a weapon-swap. My question is - how do sculptors feel when they see their creations...

    Title problems

    I am generally anti-censorship, but I fail to see how the title of this can do anything but cause trouble and offend many people: http://www.coolminiornot.com/57815

    Quorthon - RIP

    This will probably be of interest to far fewer people than the other deaths that have occurred recently, but for my fellow extreme metal enthusiasts: Thomas Forsberg (Quorthon) of the legendary Bathory has passed away due to heart failure at 39. Having been a fan of his music for around 20...
