Blog-Swap . Readers Minis and a Q+A

With all of the reviews, news and such on ToaTS recently I thought it was about time to mix things up for a week or so.
After a couple of awesome posts from Mars and AlienAmbassador I started thinking about how to get other people included in the blog.
3 ideas came to mind. A Blog Swap, Readers Pictures and a Q+A session.

Blog Swap

This is a simple but fun idea that helps everybody involved get their own work and thoughts out to more.
All you need to do to take part is add Tales of a Tabletop Skirmisher to your own blog-roll on your site and then comment below with a link to your blog.
That will then get added to the ToaTS blogroll. This means that everybody gets their blogs, ideas, thoughts and work out on more sites for more people to see!
Any gaming blog is welcome but I would especially love to see some that cover genres like sea, steampunk and super heroes!

Readers Minis

In the comments on here there are often people talking about the minis they are working on.
I want to see them!
And I want everybody else to see them!
If you want your work featured on ToaTS just send the pictures and a little bit of info to hendybadger@aol.com
Nothing rude though please, ToaTS has readers of ALL ages.

Q+A

Finally, I though a Q+A session could be fun.
If you have any questions for the Hendybadger about this site, the games covered or anything else at all, then just post them in the comments below.
Any 'publishable' question will then be gather together for a Q+A post answering all of them.

Have fun!
Hendybadger awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

You Have Chosen That I Will Be Painting....................

Over the last couple of weeks I have asked readers to vote for 3 Pulp City models for me to start my new attempt at painting with.

The result are in!
3 models had 3 votes and several models had 2.
To keep things interested and varied I am going to start with the top 3 that were voted for, but I have also picked 3 models from those that received 2 votes. (confused? I am!)

So, onto the picks I guess.
I will be attempting to paint-

Sister Bedlam

Blood Rose

Foxxy Blade

Lady Cyburn

Vector

and

Tritonious

Not a clue what the schemes are going to be for these (apart from Vector) until I start painting them and I will be trying a layering and maybe even blending technique instead of the basic wash and dry brush I have used up until now.

What schemes do you think would work for each one?

Wish me luck!

Hendybadger awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

Starting to Paint Again. But YOU Decided Which Minis!

After my failed Hendybadger vs Doc Cosmos challenge, I have decided I need to crack on and get some painting done. The more experience I get the better, and I wont get any while the paints are still in the box.

But where to start?

I have the entire range of Pulp City models here. Some have been pro-painted but I want to personally paint every model they have produced one day so I will be getting doubles of the ones already done.

As I cant decide where to start, I thought I would give my readers the chance to decide instead!

The mission-
Go to the Pulp City Website (link), unless you know the range already, and pick 3 Supremes for me to paint up.
Comment below with the names and then after a week I will tally up the votes and the top 3 will hit the painting table!
I will then blog the process of trying to paint them up, schemes, what works and what doesn't.

Be nice!

Which bits do YOU like?

You may have noticed that things get swapped around and changed on this site every know and then.
This is because I am constantly trying to improve it for the readers.
Easier layouts, new ranges, helpful topics, that sort of thing.

As a little bit of personal research to help me do this in the future I have a couple of questions for the ToaTS readers.

Which were your favourite posts on here in the last couple of months?

Which were your least favourite posts on here in the last couple of months?

And to add to both of the above questions, Why?

I would love to hear your thought.

Hendybadger awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

What do YOU want to know?

I have been running this blog for quite a while now. And each post is things I like, things Im doing, things I want to see etc. Im not stopping, there is a lot more to post yet.
But I thought it was about time to give my readers a chance to ask what THEY (YOU) want to know.Im very thankful for you all taking the time to look at this little blog in the corner of the interwebs and looking forward to hearing what you have to say.

So go for it. Any and all questions will be answered.
You can ask on here by commenting below, email me at hendybadger@aol.com or find me on Facebook at facebook.com/hendybadger or in the Citizens of Pulp City fan group.

I will gather together the best questions for a sort of Q&A post for all to see. (please say if you don't want yours included)

Hendybadger is waiting...............
