Salutations!

Greetings and salutations! My name is Will Connolly in real life and Journeyman pretty much anywhere else.

I've been playing Warmachine since the fall of 2009. It was my first miniature game. I then picked up Dystopian Wars and Infinity in 2011. I've been focusing on increasing my painting skills (if only they worked liked Skyrim...) the last few months.

Thank you again John Salmond for the invitation to this blog! I look forward to helping contribute posts and ideas!

Pardon the Panda

So I was asked by the founders of this blog to be a contributing member and I happily accepted! I've learns so much from these guys and hope to share more with you all.

I started my war gaming experience like many with Warhammer 40k back in 4th edition but have since moved on to other games. Primarily Warmachine/Hordes but also own forces for Infinity, Malifaux, Warlord and probably quite soon a Dark Age force.

Can't wait to share my world with you!

A Few W's. I. P.

Well, its been awhile since I've posted anything up here, for that I apologize. I'd like to start by welcoming Wild Chevy to the crew. Hope to see some good things out of ya WC, and I'm glad to have you aboard.

As far as painting goes... well I've been in a funk. Having a hard time getting motivated. So I went to my bread and butter. These Rackham Tir Na Bor Dwarves always have a way of pulling me out of my painting funks. Ive been working on this guy for the past couple of months. I think Im finished with his face, and pretty close to being done altogether... the NMM on his Axe is going to kill me though!!! GAH! I struggle with that sooooo much. Need to get back to practicing more. Anyhow here are a few pics of ol' Brognir.




 

Enter the Chevy

Hello,
Firstly I would like to thank John Salmond for the invite to this amazing group of painters.  I’m Allen, aka WildChevy, and I’ll be adding more hobby and painting articles to this site. You’ll be seeing stuff from the ranges of Warhammer 40k, Infinity, and Warmachines.
A little about myself:
 I’ve been in the hobby since 2008 when Warhammer 40k 5th edition came out. At first my focus was on the painting aspect of the game and it took about six months before the first time throwing down dice. Since then my collection has greatly increased and so have my skills with a brush. 

I hope to help inspire new and creative ideas.
Thanks,
Wildchevy

Paint night.

A new Game shop has opened up locally here. So, we decided we had better break it in properly and throw a paint night. It was a little short notice, and the same day as a WarmaHordes tourney at another local shop, but we still had 8 people show up for it. I had a blast myself and cant wait to do another one soon.

Infinity: Charontid

I have been playing some games of Infinity lately, really just some battle box games to get the feel for it. Anyway, this guy was whooping up on people so, I thought he deserved to be painted.
I've really been enjoying painting the Combined army figs, as they are a nice change of pace from the stuff I normally work on.
Here he is with a few in progress pics as well. Thanks for looking.

Mid-Nor: Cthonian Larvae

Well, now that the Holidays have calmed down,and life has resumed as normal, I found a few minutes to sling some paint.
Been working on this guy for a little while but held off finishing him at the thought of painting all of those individual eyes. Painting just 2 on a fig is usually bad enough!
In the end, I'm glad I took the time to do it , as I think it adds a whole new level of creepy grossness to an already nasty fig.
Thanks for checking him....it out.
