  • Rats

    During our recent group painting session, I tackled a few of the resin giant rat figures I had printed, in preparation for use during one of our various games. These had been in my box for several weeks, but I figured it was a good time to try the results of some more Contrast Paints…

  • Technology Test Stream

    Opting to try another technology test and fully stream out Extinction Curse campaign. Using the Pathfinder 2e rules, this is a campaign that we have been running for a while – the group is midway thru Chapter 3. The goal here is really to focus on the technology, and make sure it all works –…

  • Tespa of Hank

    Part of the challenge I have given all of the players for our upcoming campaign is to provide a painted, character appropriate miniature, and to consider their particular relationship to the initiator NPC of the campaign, Professor Petros Lorrimor.

Not only is the Witch newer, I have also allowed for the option of some of the expanded ancestries. Catfolk seems to be a rather popular choice. The player designed the figure in…

  • Resin printing

    In preparation for the upcoming campaign, I have tasked the players with creating or locating a figure, and painting it to match their concept. On my end, I have been collecting a number of models for use for the creatures and NPCs. Some are working, others are still a work in progress. However, given the…

  • 3d printer woes

    I have been having a number of challenges with my 3d printer, specifically the Prusa i3MK3s. At this point, it is I believe 30+ months old, and has been running nearly constantly, so I cant say that it has not been reliable. In fact, it has been for the most part rock solid, and very…
