• The Lunch Project

    The next page in my painting guide will be published this evening, so please check back.*

    *Or so I thought. I am doing aย  little re-write to be a bit more comprehensive, which requires some more photos of steps I initially left out of an earlier batch of figs. The page will be up soon though, before Tuesday.

    In the meantime, here are some pics of what I’ve been working on during my lunch break. (Evening time is set apart for Andy’s figs, which are shown in the guide photos tonight.)


    Mike’s Models Koreans. I’m using them as Koryo Korean. 3Bw (actual figs are Cb), and 4Sp.


    The Korean Lh, with a Greek officer for my Macedonians.


    Greek spear (more Mike’s models) for my Mighty Morphin’ Mike’s Models Macedonians. Little Big Man shield transfers are used.


    Macedonian Artillery: the Palintonon, three tons of nastiness!


    Another angle.


    Tarantine light horse.

    I played two awesome Diadochoi battles last night. I was victorious in both; I used Ptolemaic II/20a, and Demetrios (can’t remember the list). I got to use the arty finally! I used it to shoot three times: The first shot killed an elephant, the second recoiled a column of pike, the third missed. Lots of fun, and I see the arty as a wonderful alternative to elephants.

  • Renaissance Ink

    I would like to thank Jay Wirth of Renaissance Ink for kindly offering some of his fine products to feature in my tutorials. A big Thank You to Jay. I heartily recommend you stop by Renaissance Ink and check out the many different products they offer for DBA gamers. Especially check out the DBA specific bases, and the flocking gel you can use for your bases. I was really impressed with what I saw at Historicon, but didn’t get a chance to go to the vendors one more time like I had wished in order to pick up some of the flocking gel.

    If you are a vendor interested in featuring your products in my tutorials, or future online projects, please feel free to contact me: dbagamer at yahoo.com.

    While I do not offer advertising at this point, I will be offering it after I relaunch the site. You can contact me at the above email address to discuss future opportunities.

  • I’d like to thank The Miniatures Page for running the story on my Hobby Guide. It’s drawn a lot of new traffic and interest, and I would like to welcome my new readers. This recent exposure has pushed my plans for this site up a bit, and I recently purchased the thedbagamer.com domain name.

    What it comes down to is that I will be taking the site to a different level with more of a magazine feel. I’ll still be featuring my battle/event reports and lots of pictures, but I will also be providing space for advertisers, and offering opportunities for vendors to provide their products to be used in a new feature that will be DBA army (singular) specific. I can’t go into all the details just yet, but DBA players rejoice; something wonderful is on its way!

    I’ll be adding the next page in the guide by Friday, which is Priming & Basecoats. For now it’s back to painting medieval foot. ๐Ÿ™‚
