The future lies before us: a glittering, gold-paved superhighway that leads to The Land of Milk and Honey. Scratch that; The Land of Pewter and Silicon.
I’d say that 2011 was a good year. Everyone in the Gow clan is healthy and (generally) happy, I got a new job with a substantial pay increase, and our [...]

I wish I could say I’ve been busy, but it would be an absolute lie. Sure, family life takes up a great deal of time, especially during the holiday season, but that’s not the main reason I haven’t been painting lately. I’ve been playing Warmahordes just fine, it’s just I haven’t felt the urge to [...]

The whole Morrow / Thamar divide is one of the few things I remember about the history and lore of the Iron Kingdoms. This past month I painted up their miniature equivalents in a strange, albeit temporary, bout of unity. Versh and Alexia will never be seen on the same table again, so I hope [...]

TV Character Actors!? In My Videogame!?
Gamestop was “kind” enough last week to take my tired old Black Ops in exchange for a sparkly new LA Noire. This is what I would consider a “good deal”. The first game I’ve gotten for the PS3 in years has well been worth it, even though I’m a terrible, [...]

My usual end of April vacation was, for the first time, disease free, yet very rainy. In my previous post, I highlighted the models I’d completed, and here’s how my display case looks after about a year’s worth of SA oath threads and the slow grow.

I may have to kick Mel’s camera stuff out [...]

Behold the first models to be produced from my dedicated painting desk: a Dire Troll Mauler and Madrak.

While it has nothing to do with meaty fists, I picked up CoD: Black Ops (BLOPS!) after a particularly crappy week in which I really needed to shoot (internet) people in the (internet)face. So long removed [...]

Before I get to the usual hobby game portion of my post, I’d like to bring your attention, yet again, to how awesome Team Fortress 2 (and by extension Valve) is:
Last week the engineer update dropped (check out the link, it’s worth it), thereby completing the updates to all of the classes. As usual, players [...]

*That would be the Geek 8. It would have been the Geek 20, but there simply isn’t enough going on.
My twice-repaired 360 has finally died for good. Not due to the Red Ring of Death, but it simply won’t turn on at all. Luckily, a co-worker had a barely used one for sale with a [...]

Okay, it’s a tad early, but good god, the Rock Band franchise just pulled me back in! We have achieved maximum keytaur here, people! This little preview has made me realize a few things:
My old as dirt instruments from RB1 will need to be replaced with what I’m guessing is a deluxe version of RB3.
I [...]

Who knew that having 4 teeth removed from your face could be a detriment to one’s lifestyle? Going on three weeks from the procedure I’m still having some discomfort in the morning and evenings. I think it’s going away, but who knows how well it’ll take.
So, painting (until the last couple of nights) has taken [...]
