Adepticon 40k Terrain -- SUPERB!

Adepticon 2011 showed off great <b>40k scenery</b> as always this year. Great game boards, wonderful army displays, and truly EPIC exhibits. Probably the most enjoyed was the Forge World Citadel based project, "Defenders of Holy Terra" brought by Opposing Forces. This wonderful display included several subterrerian scenes, including this Apothecarium. Very, very cool. See many more pictures at 40k Terrain and also a brief write up on Squidoo 40k Terrain.

Hot Lead by Laszlo Jakusovszky

Been watching an excellent instructional DVD on how to paint a better miniature. Hot Lead by Laszlo Jakusovszky has great material. Added an Amazon link to buy it on my Squidoo Warhammer Armies and a detailed review on Warhammer Armies. This three DVD set covers EVERYTHING -basecoating, washing, dry brushing, outlining, blending, and layering, non-metallic metals, and LOTS more.

Adepticon Warhammer Team Tourney -- GREAT FUN!

Played Daemons and Vampire Counts with my friend Brian for the Adepticon Warhamemr Fantasy Team Tournament. I played the Vampire portion of the army. We ended up only 1 and 2. Expected to win all three, but then, that's why we have tournaments! I had great fun. Met some neat guys, learned a lot more about the game, and saw some great Warhammer Armies. Posted a quick battle report this morning at Adepticon Team Warhammer Tournament Battle Report.

Getting back to making 40k terrain -- Cities of Death

After a three week break, I'm getting back into the swing of things with 40k Terrain. I've a notion of what I want my project to end up with, and I'm hoping to do some design collaboration with fantasy artist, Scott Sez (Artists Empire). Anyhow, I've posted ideas on what I'm trying to do in the post Conceptual Designs for Cities of Death Terrain.

North Star Warhammer Tournament 2011 -- November 5th and 6th!

The North Star Warhammer Tournament for 2011 has been scheduled for November 5th and 6th. This is a great event just North of Minneapolis/St. Paul. I played there last year and had a blast -- check out Road to North Star Warhammer Tournament. This great micro blog documented making a fantastic Empire Army in only 60 or so days. Some of what I've learned is posted at Warhammer Armies. 

Not sure it's in the budget to go this year. I'd love to do it again!

Assembling Warhammer Armies

Posted some basic tips on assembling your models on Squidoo Warhammer Armies this morning, along with some pointers to tools. It sure is fun putting your armies together. Most people like doing that much more than painting. Not sure why, but it's the way it is.
