Game Demo’s from #Origins2010

I spent an hour or so with John McBride, of Splintered Light Miniatures, learning how his skirmish system worked.  He guided my friend and I through a scenario that showcased the tactical strategy you could employ using the minatures.  Sadly, I couldn’t roll to save my life (or in this case my Badger Lord, and his Mole friends lives), and the Fox and his Rat Brigade controlled by my friend took out my little band of heroes.

Another great day at #Origins2010

I had two great Art College Sessions today, with the artist from Wyvern’s Tale, on blending colors, and painting eyes on minatures.  She’s been a great person to talk to about the mini’s this weekend, and does absolutely gorgeous work.  I can’t wait to start putting her advice to work on my own projects, and hope to run into her again at GenCon later this summer!

I watched some demo’s being played with the Splintered Light minis, but unfortunately didn’t get a chance to sit in personally.   There are war campaigns, and skirmish matches you can play with their mini’s now.  I can’t wait to give those a try!

I am starting on the Splintered Light, Druid’s Children - The Faithful Box Set today.

The first three I decided to go with white Krylon for the primer, the rest will be done in black.

Since I have 20 in this set, I plan to break them up into several phases to complete the whole set.

Phase 1 Primered

While I am not sure I’ll have a new project  to show you on this weekend (I’m having fun for my birthday – YaY me), I do have some new mini projects in the works.  I also want to introduce you to  a new category called “Miniature Assembly” which I will be expanding hopefully in the near future.
