Well, darklord started it, so here\'s my entry to the Rotten Harvest: I was pretty pleased with it, but I realise now that it\'s got some problems. One thing I noticed from the competition is that opinions were really divided on this. Some people liked the base but not the mini, or vice...

Normally, I am content to ignore this woman but her current advert on my Yahoo email account makes it impossible! It\'s one of those roll-over bannmer types across the top of the screen, and when I accidentally go over it with my cursor, everything I see is obliterated by pink. Get off my...

Just read this on the OoTS website: http://www.giantitp.com/index.html#MZvsP18xmNXpVDwvCRQ I didn\'t realise this was still such a big issue! And how sad that a charity would give up money donated by well-meaning people because of something that is, frankly so inconsequential.

Does anyone else find it a pita? And does anyone have any helpful (and cheap!) suggestions as to how I can do it better?

Hiya! I\'ve decided to try and finish some of my WIPS before I start anything new, so this evening I gathered together my semi-painted stuff to see what needs some TLC. There\'s not nearly as much as I feared, but my list doesn\'t include any half-painted minis that I want to strip and repaint...

I\'m concentrating on actually finishing what I start, and finally got round to adding a few finishing touches to this the other day. It was painted for the TT competition, and one comment I got a lot was that the base looked really bare, so I\'ve added a couple of little bits and bobs, and...

I\'ve been looking at the Alkemy line by Kraken Editions for a little while now and I find them very appealing, especially the Khaliman Republic. What are people\'s thoughts re the quality of the minis and the game itself? (hey, I *might* be able to play it someday!) I was interested to see...

Two new submissions from me: Kev link (Thanks to Darkmessiah for commenting already! :)) Stones link C&C welcome. :)

I picked up a can of Army Painter\'s metallic silver primer and I seem to have a problem with it- paint doesn\'t want to stick to it! It beads up as though the surface is greasy, although I\'m fairly sure it\'s not that greasy from being handled or anything. I\'ve managed to get paint on...

Urban freeflow is on in London this weekend. Wish I could go see it- I love watching freerunning (although it does always forcibly remind me that we\'re not that far down the evolutionary tree from monkeys! lol). I wonder how long before it becomes an olympic sport? After all, a lot of the...

I discovered this a couple of days ago. It\'sincredibly addictive, and I have finally caved in to its constant demands to be shared with you all! Fantastic Contraption

How much do I suck? I was cycling to work this morning (for the second time ever!), hit a curb at the wrong angle and went flying into the pavement face first. I hit my right knee, my left elbow (how does that work?), I\'m growing a new, painful, chin and I got a nosebleed. Thank all the...

Piratical hip-hop! Absolutely chuffing hilarious! Hook it up! lollol

Froggies! So pretty! :D

Just something that occurred to me the other day. Do people insure their minis? I\'m not talking about mine, obviously, but I wondered about professional painters, Golden Demon winners, etc. I would imagine damage would be the biggest worry? I personally am not worried about minis being...

This is one of my entries for Wyrd\'s Total Testosterone competition. It is the biggest thing I have ever done and it was fun, in a challenging way! :D I\'ve been waiting until my light tent arrived before posting pictures- it\'s made quite a difference to the ones I used in the competition...

Woo! Finally got my new lighting setup in the post today, along with a little daylight lamp, and I\'ve been testing them out. They\'re brilliant! :D The only problem is, my painting now needs to be much better. :( Here is a quick before and after comparison: I tried out some things...

Hey-howdy. Was just wondering if anyone could tell me whether this works as well as the regular Simple Green? The German website doesn\'t seem to sell the \"normal\" stuff, annoyingly, and I had absolutely no joy when I tried to register on SG\'s main site so I could buy some from over the...

Now then, I would really appreciate some opinions and advice from you guys- I\'m a bit stuck at the moment. The situation is as follows: My laptop is beginning to show signs of wear and tear- I\'ve had it for a couple of years, and it\'s been my main computer for all that time, so it\'s seen a...
