The new home of all things Grinning Skull!
Just taking a brief respite in my sculpting and model making to say something...So, this has been rattling around in my head for a while, ignore the title of the post, that just implies the basis of the idea rather than the outcome, so to speak. Whilst I like the computer world and it's weirdness… Continue reading Brainstorming: Grinning Skull digest anyone?
While my rather poor internet connection allows and I'm on a roll, I want to tell you about the third installment of the successful Tabletop towns range of folding card scenery. I'm a huge fan of paper models for wargaming, so this new campaign is bound to be a big hit for those out there… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Tabletop Taverns Kickstarter
You might remember Wargames Bakery and their last KS campaign, with their base stamps and their groovy name, and this time they are back with another new addition to the many stencils that are available on the market. Even so there are quite a lot of stencils available at the moment, these differ from many… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Wargames Bakery Stencilis
I wanted to point out this KS, as I know there'll be loads of you out there that this is going to interest. This is the GamerGuage, a distance measuring system for wargaming that gets rid of the reliance for using the tape measure most of the time. The key to this, is the whole… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: GamerGauge Kickstarter
Aftermath mods are back with their latest KS, this time for a new product the mobile RPG module. It's the guy's at Aftermath mods third successful KS, and the experience shows in the new campaign, coming across more confident and prepared than before. This one I think is really one for the RPG crowd, even… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Aftermath Mods Mobile Magnetic RPG Module!
So, with previous posts being concerned with that of clowns and other such tomfoolery, I thought that it was best if I brought things back to the usual wargaming themes that many come here for. Although I will add, this blog is not just about wargames and miniatures, but about other stuff that amuses and… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Battle Systems™ Sci-fi Modular Terrain Kickstarter
So, I'm taking part in the Zomtober festivities (see more details on Zomtober here and here) In which all participants must paint up at least one survivor or zombie figure per week during the month. Whilst I think most of us taking part will be 28mm zombie gamers, for myself at least in our house, the apocolypse… Continue reading Zomtober 2013: Grinning Skull gets ready to share in Zomtober madness!
I thought I'd let you know that reluctantly I'm getting rid of this great scratchbuilt piece over on Miniaturebids. I have decided that I'm phasing out any other 28mm stuff (Apart from WFB) so this has to go. At least it'll free up more space to build more 15mm stuff, and carry on with my… Continue reading Scratch built 28mm Zombietown Highstreet up for sale on Miniature bids!
This KS nearly slipped through quietly, the Warboard from warsmith. As you can see, it's a folding modular board made in the same way as board game boards. I like the idea personally, only I wish more were done like this for 15mm gaming (Well, you knew that I was going to say that, right?!)… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Warboard gaming mat Kickstarter
