Weekly Hobby Update : 6-27-18

Hey Everyone!  Age of Sigmar's new edition is almost here and there has been a lot of content coming about the exciting changes coming to the game we love.  I am very excited to see the 24-hour live stream from the Warhammer Community Team this coming Saturday to kick things off strong.  Speaking of content and being strong I am very happy to announce that I have made the move into YouTube with my new channel Strength Hammer.  The goal of the channel is to provide entertainment, instruction, and information on my two passions of Warhammer and Lifting.  The first episode is now up and I would love if you check it out!

Which Color Paint is your Go-To?

Hey Everyone!  Today I wanted to chat a bit about paint, color choice, and what you find yourself using more so than not.  I don't plan to discuss brands of paint as much as what colors you feel are comfortable to paint with and what you always seem to grab when painting a model or an army.  If you are looking to dive more into types of paint and how brands might differ there is a lot of resources already out there such as Vince Venturella's channel over on YouTube which you should definitely subscribe to if you are not already.  I find it very interesting how color preference can shift subconsciously over time or be a hard choice and my own history of color preference is full of both.

Weekly Hobby Update : 6-20-18

Hey Everyone!  Summer is almost here and the heat and humidity have already hit my area hard giving me the perfect excuse to paint in my nicely cooled basement.  On top of getting my paintbrush working more than it has been in recent weeks, I finally started recording some video for my upcoming YouTube Channel.  I have to admit it is a much bigger challenge than it seems at the start.  If you are one of the many YouTube creators out there my hat goes off to you and all you do to create content.  However,  I am not deterred and plan to keep pushing on to get my first video out soon.

Life Lessons and Wargaming: You Are Doing Better Than You Think

Hey Everyone!  Today I return to my ongoing series "Life Lessons and Wargaming".  The point of this article series is to look at the little lessons we learn throughout life and how we can apply these to our Wargaming hobby.  After my last article in the series, a commenter gave me the idea for today's post "You are Doing Better than you Know.  I had received this advice a while ago as I was beginning my journey in fitness with weightlifting daily.  When we set long-term goals it is easy to feel like we are not making any progress, but in reality, you are and it is something you need to always keep in your mind.
