Finally managed to get that bit of Skadis from Ikea up on the wall, pretty impressed with its stability of it and the quality. First Citadel Paint pot sized print design failed on the hooks but second try I tried a model set with separate hooks and main body. Hooks did not want to fit without some hammering so I will likely scale them down a bit…[Read more]

So the way it works in Frostgrave is such:

A spell has a value you need to meet or exceed with a D20. Let’s say the spell requires you to roll a 10. If you roll a 10 or more you get 10XP and the spell is successful. If you roll 9 – 6 the spell fails but nothing else happens.  But if you fail the spell by more than 5 points (in this example you…[Read more]

Me – Finding it hard to stomach the price rises and the recent harsher stance on many community creators across all formats. (Based, I suspect, in part on the recent fake GW 3D models leak, leaving them feeling slightly burned and a little spicy. Or Bored Legal Department even worse.)

Also Me –

@solar – curious as to why you both recognise that GW are awful, and still buy stuff from them?

Is it the Amazon effect? (I hate everything Evil Jeff stands for, but still love the convenience of being able to go click-click and get hobby junk delivered to my door by the next day). Is it just convenience?

Or are there ranges that you just can’t…[Read more]

As an early adopter of (resin) 3d printing, I’ve followed Ghamak for a long time.
In the early days of expansion (as it became a group of sculptors working under a single banner) there was some controversy about (some of them) stealing other peoples parts and incorporating them into their own designs (which the main guy behind Ghamak denied for a…[Read more]
