Square Pegs – Circa Games
http://www.circagames.com/square-pegs
Dispatches from terra incognita. The Square Pegs are a motley collection of 54mm Toy Soldiers constructed from clothespins, pipe cleaners, and other accoutrements. In the summer of 2012, I found myself assessing. My increasing pile of unpainted lead, simultaneously reflecting upon. My diminishing space for storing my soldiers and scratch-built terrain, and finally, lamenting. The little time I have to devote to hobbying. Thus began the madness. But first, the back story. By Padre Paul Wright. One horrid ...

Dispatches from terra incognita. Goblins of the Old School. Submit this little vignette. As confirmation that I completed another dozen Bones. “Dungeon Attack” goblins, this time; compadres of the kobolds I knocked out last week. Following Chris Palmer’s lead. I eschewed green and sought guidance from my venerable 1/e AD&D. Monster Manual: “. Goblins range from yellow through dull orange to brick red in their skin color. Chris chose orange, so I bit for yellow. Comme ci comme ça. Paint Table Saturday 24.

Dispatches from terra incognita. Paint Table Saturday 48. Ollowing the blizzard of productivity. Which coincided with February’s blizzards (well, o.k., they weren’t really. But a half-foot of snow is a lot for North Carolina), things have been slow, hobby-wise, for the past month. The Sword and the Flame. Rulebook.

Building a JAMMA Arcade Cocktail Cabinet. March 9, 2014. I recently acquired a well constructed arcade cocktail cabinet from a friend, gratis. He built a bunch of them and sold them online I believe. This happened to be the last of the run and he wanted it out of his garage. I was surprised to learn about the JAMMA standard. But it makes a lot of sense really, and certainly made it ridiculously easy to wire up the cabinet with it’s dual controls. Or King and Balloon. One comment so far. April 26, 2010.

Paint Table Saturday + 24 – Circa Games
http://www.circagames.com/paint-table-saturday-24
Dispatches from terra incognita. Paint Table Saturday 24. Ere’s the paint table. As of yesterday. A frenetic hodgepodge mirroring the mind of the painter (but not really in that good creative way, more’s the pity). Scattered about you see several Hirst Arts pieces in various states of completion. The kobolds from earlier could still be found still skulking about, four or so rebased Heroclix, and the primed chaps and chapettes to the right are Foundry Darkest Africa.

Dispatches from terra incognita. N the name of conjugal concord. I decommissioned my expansive paint table. As is the rule with all horizontal surfaces, it collected bits and bobs that only reduced its utility. Additionally, the higher purpose of my humble hobby space is to be a guest room. Though we don’t host guests frequently, I suppose those who do stay won’t want to bunk alongside a dusty profusion of hobbying detritus. A dormer of his own. Room, and to spare.

Dispatches from terra incognita. Buildings from the Big City. Ere are some shots. Of the first three, very-nearly-done, buildings for my 25/28/32mm figures. Note that the spread for the miniature size is due to the fact that I didn’t realize that the Reaper Bones figures would be so. All of my metal figures are closer to 28mm, so these new plastic chaps tower over them! This is the building based on the old Games Workshop template. (I showed its 15mm cousin in a previous post.
