  • Magic: The Gathering 2019 Tournament

    Starting preparations for our annual Thanksgiving Magic: The Gathering tournament, which admittedly isn’t until late November. However, there is a bit of preparation I need to do, not the least of which is prepare, build, and paint the trophy for this year. I expect I will use the same model, obviously updating the year, but…

  • Magic the Gathering results

    We had a fun tournament, with quite a few players for our annual tournament.  Ended up with fewer players than last year, apparently several felt pre-cooking for Thanksgiving was a higher priority, and some of last years players were out of town.  But those that did show up had a lot of fun, and we…

  • Magic: The Gathering, Tournament Trophy

    Wrapped up and finished the first place trophy for our upcoming tournament, by adding the final details.  Likely will still add a coating of sealant, just to help protect it a bit, but it is otherwise complete.  Overall, I am happy with the results, and the design works well.  I may adjust it a bit…

  • Magic Tournament – Trophy update

    With our upcoming Magic the Gathering Tournament, scheduled for November 21, I need to finalize my plans for the victory trophy.  I posted a picture many weeks ago of the progress with painting – this is a 3d printed model that I am hand-painting.  However, I have been procrastinating since then and only recently worked…

  • Revisiting the Trophy

    Several months ago, I posted about my project to craft and create a trophy for our annual Magic the Gathering tournament.  I managed to revisit this project this week, while I was spending time for work in Toledo.  Didn’t end up having as much time as I had hoped (we had a big outage to…

  • MtG Tournament Trophy

    Last year, as part of our local tabletop group, we held our first Magic: The Gathering Tournament – a small affair of local players and friends.  It was rather informal, and admittedly almost no one even knew how to play, but we had a good turn out with about 16 players.  Everyone had a great…

  • MtG Tournament results

    Congratulations to George, and his dominating Red deck, who managed to win the first annual Thanksgiving Magic the Gathering competition.  We ended up with 14 participants, which resulted in 4 rounds of games.  Many of the players were brand new to the game, so it was rather educational for many, and I believe we have…
