    Don\'t know what got into me . . .

    If all your painted miniatures came to life, maintaining their current scale and all abilities - rifles and all firearms would fire, spells could be cast, they could all move at their relative speed, could they kill you? What if you were sleeping and they had time to plan and deploy?

    A friend passed this on to me today . . I know, I know, not quite the same hobby exactly but . . . They do mention the painting bits http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_news/england/leicestershire/3159701.stm

    This Infernal Heat!!

    Blimey it\'s wicked hot here in NYC . . how are our Belgian brothers and sisters doing? France, the neighbor, lost 10 in the last few days! Product recommendation: Someone mentioned at the water cooler this morning Vornado Air Circulators. Well I\'ll be damned if it doesn\'t work as...

    6 New GW Paint Colors - What do you think?

    The new colors are: 1. Catachan Green - this is a nice medium Olive color. 2. Terracotta - this looks like a slightly lightened generation of Dark Flesh. Dark Flesh was TOO dark for actual Flesh for me but this will do nicely. 3. Tanned Flesh - This is yet another lighter generation of...

    Foiliage Tips

    The next project I\'m going to dabble in will require 50 odd figures based in a good quantity of Autumn leafed litter. I envision this as a heavily carpeted forest floor - not deep enough to have feet submerged but enough not to be able to use those fine brass leaves from where ever. Besides I...

    Viz Magazine

    I\'ve been meaning to ask . . . I discovered this about a year ago and LOVE IT - bought every issue since - it is ridiculously funny .. . Should I be embarrassed? (for those who\'ve never heard of it - it\'s a satirical British comic/humor magazine akin to Mad or Cracked or National Lampoon...

    Neutral Ground in NYC

    Whoah! It had been about 3-4 months since I had been in there and I told a bunch of people what they can find there - it\'s one of three miniature game shops I know of in the city. (GW and Complete Strategists) But have I got it all wrong! I guess it was about 3 months ago there was enough...

    Got \'em all yet?

    A while back there was a thread that was about who had voted on every mini on this site. Vince, I think you were one who had done it. Is there anyone else who has voted on EVERY mini here? (as of today) What happens when you browse randomly after that - does it bring up nothing or does it...

    Hosting Sites

    For those of you who have their own website - what are you using? Yahoo? Geocities? I\'m just now exploring this and really don\'t know where to start. Mostly it will be quiet on the graphics but full of text & pictures - I\'m not doing anything fancy just some simple menus, pics of all my...

    What are you doing this weekend?

    Since Fantasy/Sci Fi dominates here I think I know where this is going to lean but I\'m curious as to who is going to Lancaster for Historicon this weekend (where I\'m going) . . .

    Stephen King\'s Dark Tower

    For the first time I\'m reading these - just finished the Gunslinger and am about 30 pages into the Drawing of the Three. They\'re quite good so far . . . Question: Are there Gunslinger inspired miniature ranges out there? I know I can cobble together a set of suitable items to use but I wonder...

    Voting qualifications

    Can we discuss this in particular? It gets mentioned as parts of other posts but I just wonder if we really have a concensus at all. I\'ve seen out there repeated the idea that you don\'t have to be a great painter to know what great painting looks like and thus be able to judge it properly...

    Sun

    How protective should we be concerning the sun and miniatures. Occasionally a game gets left up for a week or two at a time and the sun shines in as it is wont to do and I swear it looks like there is some fading of color on some minis. Is the sun a real threat? Should figures be even stored...

    Basing

    On slotta bases do you deliberately glue the figure up higher to allow gravel/sand/ballast to go under the feet? or do you just glue around the feet after the fig is painted. My problem: (more so with 15\'s) is that I always glue gravel/sand/ballast onto the foot itself. I spose I could...

    Glues - both a recommendation and enquiry

    For metals I use Zap-a-Gap and it works fairly well. Sometimes I really have to hold stuff together for longer than is comfortable though. For plastics there is the most kick @$$ stuff called Ambroid\'s ProWeld: Professional Plastic Welder. $3 for 2 Fluid Oz. This stuff is great - it melts the...

    Reaper English Bunnies? Mice?

    I sent an inquiry off to Reaper about this but I also wanted to throw it out to the CMON posters (and the folks at TMP). A couple years ago, on the Reaper Website, there was a range of figures that consisted of little mice, ? rabbits? in English hunting suits; some had shotguns, one had a...
