The First Expedition: August 2015
http://thefirstexpedition.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 17 August 2015. What is the First Expedition? We'd like to invite you to join in a writing challenge on the forum. Details can be found in this clicky link. The following extract is an example, drawn from Along Came a Spider. Harlavus Judemar continued weaving his way through the bustling thoroughfares of the Gabriel Market. Named long ago, most people would never know the provenance the name bestowed upon the teeming trade hub on the banks of the Orontes. 8220;Harl, what’s wrong?

I'm alone with a dream: January 2017
http://imalonewithadream.blogspot.com/2017_01_01_archive.html
A lonely kitbasher's trade. Saturday, 14 January 2017. Lonely Guide: making capes quickly out of tin. A fellow G wargamer asked how I made capes and cloth out of tin, and I thought it'd be a good time to put up a tutorial on the subject, just to have on the blog in case. You're going to need a bit of tin first, and an old pair of scissors to cut it with- be careful what you choose, you'll need something that both paint and your glue can stick to. Some commercial tins are coated in. odd. Right, now I've t...

I'm alone with a dream: November 2016
http://imalonewithadream.blogspot.com/2016_11_01_archive.html
A lonely kitbasher's trade. Sunday, 27 November 2016. Hobby update: My own legion of the damned. Let's get this out of the way quick- I LOVE the Prospero box kit! MKIII must be my favorite sort of power armour, and all the other cool bitz you get-! 300 NZD was a stretch, but I know I won't be needing to buy any more plastic crack for a great long while. So what will I be doing with the set? Oh, you know. I won't be assembling them as per the box! Hee hee, aren't I mean. Also melta weapons deep striking i...

I'm alone with a dream: The two-year dream: looking back at some of my older posts
http://imalonewithadream.blogspot.com/2016/12/the-two-year-dream-looking-back-at-some.html
A lonely kitbasher's trade. Saturday, 17 December 2016. The two-year dream: looking back at some of my older posts. Today's post will be a bit of a self-glorifying mess, I'm sorry. We go back and pick out some of the more notable posts on the blog to have another look at. Two years, 100 posts and 20,000 views and. My first ever post. With no expectation of audience, stuff like a rather odd deathwatch conversion. I was so proud of back then, and the day I learned to embed videos and spammed it for one day.

The First Expedition: Dusk Raiders
http://thefirstexpedition.blogspot.com/2015/09/dusk-raiders.html
Monday, 28 September 2015. Before the Death Guard, the XIV Legion Astartes were known either by their number, or as the Dusk Raiders. In storm grey, with a deep crimson right arm, the recruits – mainly drawn from Albia – did their part in the fierce Unification Wars that began on Terra, and continued until the pacification of the whole Solar System. It was from this point that the Great Crusade began. Expeditionary model of the week: Dusk Raider. Over to Bulldog Lopez to expand on his figure:. Keppler gl...

I'm alone with a dream: June 2016
http://imalonewithadream.blogspot.com/2016_06_01_archive.html
A lonely kitbasher's trade. Monday, 27 June 2016. Further distractions: some Skitarii. Once again I find myself starting something new while all my other half-finished projects look on in dismay. Mechanicus! Trailing pipes and ripped open faces have always appealed to me; I've wanted to kitbash some horrendously mutilated humans- Astartes didn't count- but have only now gained enough courage to get myself a box of skitarii. A while ago I made a version of Anacharis Scoria. And I believe that prompted me.

Bronze is WEIRD | dextersworkshop

September 10, 2016. I also took a bit of inspiration from my home town, and the Mount Vernon Place United Methodist Church, which follows a similar color palate. It’s actually kind of a dump inside. As you can see, the colors range from green to red to brown to black and all sorts of bizarre combinations. Mind you, this is a very small selection of the images I took, representing the most strikingly different color patterns I saw. At this point I realized that if I kept going in this direction, and start...
