My little side project is basically finished. I still need to neaten up the bases a bit and add some white lines on the "grass". The biker dwarves are from Neomics, the medic and the cheerleader are from Gaspez-Arts (part of their pirate dwarf team).Overall I'm pretty happy with this team, its not my best work but it does have me fired up to get back to work to painting some western pieces. There are some terrific...

Bones within BonesIts late, I'm at Reaper and its been a long day. The picture is already a bit dated because we are under 24 hours to go.

If you haven't been keeping up then head over and check the kickstarter and go through...

BONES II; The Return of Mister Bones - Sophie makes an appearance!

I know, I know, to much BONES this month, but this little announcement was pretty exciting. Sophie, Reaper's mascot, has been added to the core set. This will be a 28mm version, so suitable for a gaming piece, sculpted by Bobby Jackson. The concept artwork looks fantastic and Bobby will be working on the sculpt this week while he is at Reaper. This is Bobby's first Sophie sculpt so I'm looking forward to seeing what...

BONES II, The Return of Mr Bones. Reaper Miniatures Kickstarter entering its final days

This kickstarter is moving right along and I'm still firmly in the camp of it breaking the 4 million dollar mark by the end. And with that in mind I would recommend jumping in now before the servers crash. For those of you running really tight budgets right now (darn that broken windshield) there is an option for you. You can pledge for $1 that gets you in and locks in your spot. The $1 pledge will allow you access...

Another Wild West Town Reference - 1880 Town

I'm always looking for new sources on western buildings and some how I stumbled across this one yesterday; 1880 town.Its in South Dakota so I should make a trip out and visit it next year. Its not a "real" town in the sense that is an existing frontier town but it has been put together from buildings the owners purchased and transported to the site. Buildings range from the 1880 - 1920s. There aren't nearly enough pictures...

Scott Carpenter Mercury 7 Astronaut

Scott CarpenterAnd another astronaut passes into history. Scott Carpenter was one of the original Mercury 7 astronauts in the US space program. His passing leaves only a single member of that group still with us; John Glenn at 92. Carpenter was the 4th American into space and the 2nd to orbit the Earth. Especially poignant for me as he is from my adopted hometown of Boulder CO, where you will find the Aurora 7 elementary...
