Hobby: Nuggets of Wisdom part 2

Part 2. Part 1 is here.

I'll get right to it.

Oh, and this one ended up being a lot about dipping. You've been warned.

Hobby: Nuggets of Wisdom

I've had a crazy idea.

Since I am not working during the summer (I'm a teacher), I'll have time to post here more regularly.

Yeah, that cannot in any foreseeable way go wrong.

Not often I have an opportunity to quote the Bible... Might be the whole atheist thing.

So, I'll start by sharing a few nuggets of Hobby wisdom I've acquired over the years. Some will be well known and obvious, others will be useless to you personally, and some just might be useful to someone.

If nothing else, you'll get to hear me whine about Superglue Pain.

GW Getting Things Right - Ceramite White and Agrax Earthshade

Oh, how lovely it is to be able to say that our favourite evil corporation gets something right.

I got two of GW's new paints, with the express purpose of seeing if they were any good. I got Agrax Earthshade, because it's the closest thing to Devlan Mud in the new line, and Ceramite White, 'cause I've always missed white in the Foundation line.

Hobby: Painted Minis

So, a new year. No reason to stop posting, really...

Today will be one of those rare hobby posts. I've painted up my Christmas gifts to myself...

Hobby: Broadening Your Horizons

This'll be one of my relatively rare hobby posts. Why are they rare? 'Cause I'm kinda crap.

Today's post will not be a tutorial. It will not deal with a specific technique. There are people much better suited for that kind of article than Mediocre Me. It will, instead, deal with a wide, sweeping principle that I have just recently discovered.

Yeah, truly groundbreaking this is.

Not something I should have realized ages ago.

Changing game systems is good for your hobby skills.

Hobby: S.N.A.F.U.

Look it up. It's a thing.

Hobby: Magnets and Anti-shine

Howdy y'all!
Sorry.

Today's post is a hobby post. Yay! I won't regale you with painting tips (there are many better suited for that) but I will relate recent success with two recent purchases from our resident drug-dea... hobby retailer: a bundle of magnets and Army Painter's anti-shine spray.
