Aunt Petunia's favorite nephew

"It's clobbering time!" Comic book collecting is my other hobby and my favorite character has always been Ben Grim, the ever-loving, blue-eyed, Thing. (The Fantastic Four also being my favorite comic.) So, in honor of new comic Wednesday, here's a bootleg Thing model I found online. I think he's intended for Marvel Crisis Protocol. That's a game I don't play but I might if the FF joins the game. #marvel #thething #fantasticfour #miniaturepainting #marvelcrisisprotocol 

40,000 Views!

I looked at my stats for this blog recently and I just passed 40k views!  To say I'm pleased is an understatement. I realize most of it's probably bots or simply picture views, but it seems like such a cool landmark for my hobby. I also know it's peanuts compared to the podcast who has the same name, but I still feel a bit of joy sharing my hobby with others.  Thank you to all of the real people who visit and read my posts!

My first game of Warhammer 40k 10th Edition

  This weekend, a few of us in my regular gaming group, The Sunday Morning Fight Club, tried a game of Warhammer 40,000 10th Edition. We had points, the stock mission from the main rules, and the index rules at the time of the game. There are still a lot of clarifications we need, like, “what is a battleline troop?” and, “can you really reduce a damage to 0?” but we soldiered on, stumbling and fumbling along the way. I brought my Space Wolves and I played against Eli and his combined Daemon force. I can’t speak for Eli, but I felt like we both brought a variety of units to see how they worked, interesting interactions, and some combos and tactics we were excited to try. My thoughts on building a Space Wolf List: I had a bit of a challenge with building my Space Wolf roster. I have lots of troops. I have lots of characters. However, I mostly own first born characters and I want to field Primaris troops, which prevents me from having characters join a similarly armored unit. It’s not tha

Space Wolf Wulfen Conversion

This Space Wolf Wulfen conversion I recently finished painting was a lot of fun to build and paint. I really don't like the regular Wulfen kit, but mixing it with a primarus torso and legs looks better in my eyes. Let me know what you think!  I missed the Kansas City Open this year and I likely would have brought my Space Wolf successor Great Company (called the Tempest Hounds for now.)
