What do you do when you participated in a Kickstarter for a board game in back in 2011 and the rules are terrible, and the second wave of miniatures are disappointing? Well, if you are me you take them and shove them in the back of a closet so the miniature can mature like a…
I have discovered that in pulp gaming not only are cars a mode of transport, but they also terrain. These vehicles are part of the image of the era and rather essential. Over the past year I have building my garage and here are my results. These vehicles are 1/48 scale and are from a…
And thus, it begins my journey into Warlord’s Black Seas. As usual, I was talked into this. Adam has had a long infatuation with the age of sail. Neither of us wanted anything too complicated since we don’t have a lot of time for an actual game. Initially, I was going to do his Britannic…
Recently I read a blog post about old the Old Games Workshop White Dwarf conversion of the first Space Marine Whirlwind that they published. I admit I felt a bit of nostalgia while reading the article. I remember back in 1993 when I first started playing 40k I wanted a Whirlwind but did like the…
I finally finished my Pulp Alley faction/team! Aliens of the Crystal Skull which consist of Skinnies from the Starship Troopers, and a Kroot Hound from Warhammer 40k. The team consists of:– Tyrant (the guy with the red cape)– Raider with a jump pack– Two soldiers– Technician/Scientist (Modified with a probe, and a tech case)– Tyrant’s…
Team 1 of my Soviets has been completed! After the contrast paints, I worked with some highlights, and some inks just to help clean up areas and enhance them. Bases are painted Highland Moss, and next will be gloss coat and dull coat along with some stones and flocking. Some of the updates are the…
15mm is a great size to quickly paint through an army, though I am still picky. I figured I could try and use some of GW Contrast Paints to at least base coat the Soviets and prepare them for future engagements. I’ve run the test on one of the teams that have the sniper detachment.…
On an early Sunday morning 1941, Father Strange and Bella “BB” Besse was near the church in a small town in France (that fashioned their church on American influences) when strange things began to happen. Congregation members were walking slowly and awkwardly towards them. Eerie moans are heard nearby and a mist appears around the…
Soviets are preparing with a fresh layer of paint. My friend Thom and I have decided to take our Team Yankee figures and base them for Platoon level of play. The systems we are looking into are No End in Sight, and Disposable Heroes using some modified rules. Both Thom and I are not fans…
Here is a nice piece from Reaper Miniatures, 02747: Jean-Paul DuChamps, Werewolf by Ben Siens. Since I had decided to use this piece in a future pulp gaming scenario I decided to mount him on a 40mm clear round base from Renedra, Ltd. So the first thing I did was clip away as much of…
