Miniature Painting Competitions – What Level to Compete in?
One of the first difficult decision in entering a miniature painting contest is figuring out where the heck you want to enter in – Beginner? Intermediate? Masters? Where should you stake your claim? If you’re anything like me, you’ve spent a lot of time in miniature painting communities or follow artists who win awards as…
Halloween Ringtail (Game Scale) – KDM – Build Guide
This was one I wasn’t 100% what the model was when I started building it. The sprue just had the label “Halloween 2020”, and for the life of me I couldn’t recall what mini had a scythe that early in the game – realizing that it was a bat, not a scythe, finally made it…
Braal – Red Witches – Build Guide
Braal. The token Muscle Mommy of the Red Witch trio and I am all here for it! If the background looks different, it’s because I decided to build her at the coffee table instead of being holed up in my home office. A change of scenery is always nice. I started with the legs! Next,…
Post-Con Highlights
A bit late, but I’m back from Canada and getting back into the swing of things. I am exhausted, and this post is only … three(!) weeks late, but everything is getting back to the swing of things. The expo was fantastic. I wandered around, wandered off from my friends enough that they are threatening…
Busy girl!
I have not kept up with the blog posts lately! My initial goal for the year was to try to do one post a week, and… well, I’m about a month behind. Are there excuses? Absolutely. Are they valid? Eh. Some of it is just busy work with my day job, some of it is…
Wanderer – Aeneas – Build Guide
Wanderer – Aeneas is a optional Gambler’s Chest addition that can visit your settlement. Set an extra seat at your settlement’s table for this hungry wanderer, and see how she can help supplement your settlement. First, the legs and torso. Next, the back portion of the loincloth. Then, the chest. Next comes the arms. I…
Gatherism (Female) – KDM – Build Guide
This model is honestly pretty straightforward, but since I built it, I felt it was worth a guide. What might seem simple to one person might puzzle another, and it never hurts to have more resources out there. Torso/Chest For once, I started with the torso instead of the legs – shocking, I know! There…

Mark your calendars, friendos – a new demo day approaches! On Saturday, February 21st, I’ll be demoing Battletech at The Rubicon Hobbies and Games in Quakertown! As you may already know, I am a Demo Agent on the Catalyst Demo Team (CDT). Sadly, not an employee of the Catalyst Game Labs, just a volunteer that…
Seer – Red Witches – Build Guide
Red Witches is the expansion I’m most excited to play. I’ve always loved playing Blood Mages in Shadowrun as a GM. There’s just something about the inherent body horror of your own blood being weaponized against you and being powerless to stop it. As always, enjoy the sprue that we’ll be building before we jump…
Stillmania 2026 (r/minipainting Discord Event)
Annually, the r/minipainting discord server hosts an army painting event throughout the year. People flock to the channel to paint up armies or board game miniatures (such as for Cthulhu: Death May Die). I decided to participate this year, and give myself a challenge of painting four full armies. Note that I’m I’m using the…
