Just a quick update. A friend of mine asked on facebook for some advice on Gold NMM and it just happened that I worked on some recently so I figured I would post a couple of images and share my thoughts. I should note that this is only my second or third attempt at NMM…

The Haikido Hackers are chugging along. Most of the basic goblins are now done. I will do a full team review post soon when I have everything in place. In this post, I wanted to show off some of the work on layering that I have been doing recently, particularly the Obi (belt) on the…

There are a few things that I didn\’t get finished off before the end of the year. Not too many as one of the things I have gotten better at is finishing something before moving onto the next (we\’ll gloss over the massed ranks of Nuln and Samurai hiding in drawers, primed & unpainted…) Carnal…
