Features!

I've been running a number of DeviantArt deviant features these past few months. But I've never imagined that I'm being featured on one.

Now for something new:

My collection so far

...from all the Warhammery stuff.
 

Odds and Ends

 
First there's this awesome anime CCG called Weiss Schwarz, and now its a Gundam minis game.

You heard me right, there is a GUNDAM MINIS GAME and its called Gundam Collection Tactical Battles.

It's not everyday that you see an Inori deck box lying around

Aside from miniatures, video games comics and other geeky stuff I'm a big fan of Collectible Card Games (CCG's). I've been through a 'Magic: The Gathering' phase when it was all the rage back in the '90's. Then there was Legend of the Five Rings (L5R), Animayhem and the VS system and a whole slew of other CCGs. I thought I knew and played them all to the point that I stepped out of it for quite some time (like when Time Spiral for Magic: The Gathering came out but that's a story for another day).

Sleeves are WIN!

Poor Man's Army

Orkses nevah loos!

If you think that miniatures warganes/skirmish games is an expensive hobby to get into then you're mostly right. Miniatures tend to be intimidating due tot their size-to-price ratio but I willleave that discussion for another time.

However, there are ways to start a cost-effective miniatures collection for gamng and collecting. I'll not be discussing a get-around but more of a wise method of purchasing and planning. Note that I'll be transparent on the costs and will be using my current Warhammer 40,000 Orks army for this discussion but what I'll give out applies to most modern miniatures as well.

OK here it goes.

WH40K: Salamanders Space Marines Terminators

Second wave of my Warhammer 40,000 Space Marines that I'm currently working on.   

Here's my Salamanders Space Marines Terminators ready to roll out. They're the Elites called upon when there is a threat graver than any other Space Marine could handle. Each Terminator wears tactical Dreadnought armor and is armed with the best weapons available.

My Take on the 2012 Gunpla Rumors

Yeah there's been a lot of Warhammer 40,000 stuff happening in this blog and my life recently but don;t think for a second that I have forgotten about Gunpla (Gundam Plastic) models. There's a list currently circulating in the interwebz regarding rumors on this year's releases and it's all very exciting. So here's my take on the much talked about list:

*Note that this list is not 100% set yet and may include more or less models as official announcements from Bandai trickle as months go by:

News sourced from gunjap and gtoys  by the way. Thanks guys!

Happy Warhammery New Year

Thought I start 2012 with a bang. Like so:

Yep, finished my Space Marines Tactical Squad and Captain. And more!
